Re: 30" 4k OLED from Sony

I believe the price was said to be 30,000 Euros a while back when it was first shown off. My dream of having a Gsync OLED 120hz monitor in my life time is out the door... I feel you bro. For me the dream is a 5120x2160, 35"+, 120hz+, gsync OLED; and i fear its even further away then i first thought....

Re: Heres a conundrum for you!

My immediate reaction was "no, never" but after spending a bit of time going through a dozen or so games in black and white, it was surprisingly okay.

I don't think I'd want to spend a decade like that, but it was nowhere near as bad as I thought it might be.

Re: V-Sync: Driver or Game?

I want to cap my fps for a simple reason : my gpu is noisy and get hot for nothing, I got a gtx980, I don't want to play à 350fps when my card can still be passive at 60 fps. I would like to cap my fps on the nvidia panel.. but its impossible sadly. You can set a framerate cap in NVIDIA Inspector, ...

Re: V-Sync: Driver or Game?

tldr why do people want vsync or fps capping anyway? is it for gsync? Because any time your framerate is not synced to the refresh rate it will tear and judder (V-Sync Off) or it will judder without tearing. (triple-buffering) And it turns out that enabling V-Sync alone is not enough for judder-fre...

Re: V-Sync: Driver or Game?

I'm not sure that I understand what point you are trying to make here. All of the discussion here is about a V-Sync On scenario, where the goal is to get the smoothest gameplay possible. Keeping things low latency at the same time is nice, but not the primary concern. And you seem to be contradictin...

Re: V-Sync: Driver or Game?

I did some more testing, though I don't know how relevant the results will be to modern games. I loaded up Max Payne 2, which uses DirectX 8, because it easily runs at hundreds of FPS and if you set it to a maximum of 8 pre-rendered frames it's the laggiest thing in the world. If I enable an RTSS fr...

Re: V-Sync: Driver or Game?

Consistent frame times are very easy if you have 50ms+ of buffering, but it's hell for input lag. If you look at the graph I posted on the last page, fps_max 85 and everything right of it is displaying basically the same framerate/frametimes. The capped ones do occasionally miss a v-sync deadline, ...

Re: V-Sync: Driver or Game?

As far as v-sync is concerned 70fps is identical to 90fps, If your pipeline is allowed to push frames faster than your monitor accepts them, your graphics pipeline gets congested and you see a huge increase in latency. As for nvidia's driver cap vs RTSS, maybe flood or stirner can test that. Oh. I ...

Re: V-Sync: Driver or Game?

Update: I spoke with Unwinder about modifying Afterburner's to allow sub 100ms polling for more accurate monitoring without interference. That's awesome! Is it available in a public build yet? Driver vs game doesn't matter for v-sync, but it does matter for framerate caps. In game framerate caps ar...

Re: Benq Xl2411z eye strain

Probably all led lcd monitors are not eyes/head friendly because of led backlight, I even used two Eizo monitors and also have it (eye strain/headache). I have zero such problems on my old Flatron crt. With time eyes can get used a bit but still.. monopoly. There is nothing about LED backlighting w...
