    Little help explaining current speed differences between chips and laptops/studio/mini etc ?

    Figure this forum would be good for getting folks with experience in both Apple and Windows hardware to be able to enlighten me a little on this. Background I'm a sys engineer for 20+ years , built tons of PC's , have had some Macbook Pro's in the past I loved etc , been away from Apple...

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    Sweet will have to check that out , really odd that it didn't do it with other monitor but does with the LG (exact same computer obviously too) Thanks Edit: Wonder if the fact it was displayport on my other monitor and HDMI on this could possibly cause the difference ?

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    A riddle for you TV as a monitor experts. Just got the C2 42 , couldn't resists after going down to 799 and while still doing minor tweaks (waiting on the service remote ) , I have watched couple PC setting videos and got the ECO stuff off , and have full chroma at 120 coming from my 3080ti...

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    So I don't sit in a bright room with windows behind me , but I keep hesitating on pulling the trigger on the 42" LG Oled on sale due to concerns about brightness. How do you guys handle playing SDR games on it , is it as bad as some videos say about being really dim in non HDR games ? (Going to...

    LG 48CX

    Been reading off and on , if wouldn't mind from the experts current situation on these ? Decided I didn't like the curve on the 38" LG combined with loss of vertical space (used to 4k 60hz for a while now). So sent it back to Costco and going to give the CX 48 another go. 1. Currently have...

    GPU Market Gets Flooded With Used GeForce RTX 2080 Ti’s

    Still remember lots of shit given to those of us who jumped on the Titan Pascal first edition 4 years ago , while it was a lot to bite off cost wise at the time, it's done me well for that long , Definitely was tempted many times to get the 2080ti but managed to hold off.

    LG 38GL950G - 37.5" 3840x1600/G-Sync/175Hz

    Just got mine in from Costco , the 38GN950-B.AUS , second one actually , first one was busted so sent back and new one arrived today. I don't want to deal with any worries about burn-in with OLED and mainly I don't want anything over 40". I've been gaming on my BenQ 32" 4k's for years now...

    Is it time to say goodbye to 1440p?

    After seeing this and the sale on Costco on the 38GN950-B.AUS , I pulled the trigger and looking forward to giving it a go. Seems close enough size wise vertically where the extra wide space will make up for it. Add in the faster response and hz and hoping this will do me for a few years like...

    Is it time to say goodbye to 1440p?

    I probably need to look into that size then , it was a 35” likely I was looking at the specs on and it was 7” shorter vertically than my 324k one which just seems small. With no 32” 4K IPS’s on the horizon with a faster refresh rate maybe I would lime the 38” widescreen

    3080 10g and 4k

    Of course what might push me to the 3090 is the 3080 being out of stock and I'm sitting there starting at a 3090 in stock........

    Intel Is Changing Its Logo and Iconic, Five-Note Bong Sound

    All I know is I still remember with nostalgia the EQ and Tribes days on the Pentium 2 and the commercial chime of the time

    Is it time to say goodbye to 1440p?

    Same , been using the BenQ 3200U (and previous 3201 BenQ before that) on the 60hz 4k myself for years now. 32-maybe 38ish (40 at max) is the ideal size for me. And IPS 4k 120+hz right now 32" size would be my ideal. Tried the 48cx and just too big. I keep eyeballing the higher hz ultrawide's...

    3080 10g and 4k

    The cynical side in me thinks Nvida has a 16GB 3080 TI for 899 to launch around big Navi Launch or announce it then anyway.

    So what CPU if were building a brand new system right now to go with a 3080/3090 ?

    Thanks much for the suggestions so far , figured I'm not the only one with a 5ghz 7700/8700 wondering same type of thing. I'm actually hoping some sites will test out the 3080 with something along the lines of a 7700k and see how it does without the newest PCIE etc , not like my machine is a...
