ULMB 2 Released

[EliteA1]

For anyone who cares or is undecided

Bought LG OLED and Asus OLED 27. Colors are beautiful contrast is beautiful it makes browsing, videos and photos very pleasurable I really enjoyed these OLED panels for gaming and have been using them for 3 weeks now without going back to any panel type.

Bought the 360 HZ Asus IPS 2k to try ULMB 2. Didn't look as clean as dyac but good enough. Color for me is awful with the black and IPS glow on the corners even with brightness turned down. I play with my screen VERY close and I couldn't see the corners of that IPS panel they just faded out to black very awful experience.

Went back to BenQ 360hz dyac after 3 weeks of OLED and holy crap there's just nothing better than strobing for now and I REALLY REALLY wanted to like my OLED and convinced myself of the 2k res, color, perfect angles but in FPS games especially when there's a scope involved with flick shots my brain just processes so much better on the dyac.

I'm so torn because of the quality of OLED and the 2k resolution is absolutely massive for desktop usage but I didn't notice so much in gaming, but nothing beats dyac for FPS.

I can't wait to try that 540hz if it has brightness and ULMB 2 at the full refresh rate.

what on earth are u quoting

"with at least 1000Hz operating when operating without any blur reduction mode." if traditions are kept the way they are now it would have blur reduction still so it will exceed 1000hz effective not to mention ulmb3 4 5 would be out by then lol. just syin

I've bought the PGN279AQN to try ULMB 2 and it is pretty good (coming from the 240hz Oled from Asus).

Is there ANY way to create or ENFORCE a fixed refresh rate on this monitor ? (not a "real" custom resolution)

Apex Legends is locked to 300 FPS and I would like to use my monitor with 300hz and ULMB 2.

Is that in any way feasible ? If no I'll just send it back and keep my oled I think.

(By the looks of it... not and that's a shame)

Been going back and forth lately between G-Sync and ULMB 2 trying to decide what I like more, the extra clarity during motion or the consistent smoothness with G-Sync. I get around 200-220fps a lot in Apex when not capped at 300fps in 1440p.

Have you decided? And how would you compare both in APEX Legends? I'm afraid to make the jump on ULMP2 and destroy my eyes.

I want to add to this post that I have gotten ULMB 2 to work on an AMD Radeon GPU

How to Open CRU click edit at the top then uncheck "Include if slot available" at the bottom

Very interesting! What AMD gpu do u have? Can G-SYNC (VRR) be enabled/disabled in AMD panel or is it detected as "Not Supported"?

I have a 6950XT and no it shows as “unsupported”
But its not that hard to reenable.

So that's all you did to get ULMB 2 to activate on your monitor's OSD? Works with no issues in-game?

Also, do you have the PG27AQN monitor? Just read your past posts, I see you do have the PG27AQN.

Yep thats all I had to do, ULMB2 was locked behind the fact that AMD has no proper way of disabling Gsync in their software or Windows.

This is a great thing you discovered. I wonder if this works on older ULMB monitors. Can someone test btw?

Out of curiosity I tried this on couple of non-nvidia G-SYNC monitors. Unchecking the "Include if slot available" on my 34WN650 + nvidia PC didn't disable VRR, but removing all the range limit numbers did (like on image above), while "Enable G-SYNC Compatible" tick was still checked. On M32Q + amd I had to remove FreeSync Range block from extension blocks in CRU after which it showed "Not Supported".

So depending on the monitor, its either range numbers in edit window or freesync range block that has to be removed to disable VRR.
