Well is it brighter because the EOTF is totally screwed when running in High Mode? The GR27 is also known of be one of the dimmest OLEDs and so LG had to refresh it with the GS27 after just 1 year so being brighter than the GR27 isn't really a huge accomplishment.

Yeah and that is exactly why I do not follow rumors.

What? GB202 is now rumored to be an MCM of GB203? Lol these rumors are something else.

They are not. 5090 is GB202 while 5080 is GB203.

A 5080 launching first sounds incredibly dumb to me but we'll see, it isn't like Nvidia has never made dumb moves before.

It's for the ultrawide and its EU market :( anything on the 4K?

I don't own the LG monitor so I won't say too much, but I highly doubt it is "a lot brighter" than a C2 in real content. Everything that has been shown about it so far has all been limited to just a bunch of test slides. Once RTings gets one in then we will know for sure whether it is a lot...

If you're satisfied with it that's fine, but IMO yes it is quite subpar when compared to a mini LED. Peak1000 mode simply isn't useable due to the aggressive dimming so TB400 is the best mode for the latest OLED monitors which means peak brightness is capped to around 450 nits. That is barely...

This monitor isn't even the death knell for high end LCD monitors with mini LED, let alone cheapo LCDs. It simply doesn't have the brightness to deliver the HDR performance that mini LEDs can. If it had the same brightness levels as Apple's new iPad pro lineup then I might say the death knell of...

DSC switch added to the OSD to enable DLDSR and DSR modes. MPG 271QRX QD-OLED: Added HDMI PC/Console switch in the OSD. (MPG 271QRX QD-OLED default setting is “Console” mode.) Support for a variety of aspect ratios, MPG 321URX QD-OLED allows selection between a 24.5” and 27” option, MPG 271QRX...

It would have been a decent upgrade if LG didn't decide to nerf the brightness when running in game mode. This is the 65" version but compared to the 65" C1 it is significantly brighter. I would expect a 42" C4 to be brighter than the C2 by a good margin as well, but once you turn on game...

That's kinda what I mean, at some point the price is simply too high regardless of how much of a bargain it is relative to the 5090. They will monkey around with the pricing for sure, I'm just expecting that they will have to once again backpedal when the sales numbers doesn't work out.

Started playing Dead Island 2 since it came to steam. This is one of the few games that really make use out of this monitor with fantastic HDR that has perfect black levels and being able to run anywhere from 160-220fps on high end hardware. Day time scenery is quite muted looking since the...

Well that only works to a certain degree. If Nvidia was to price the 5090 at $10,000 then the 5080 at $3,000 does that mean everyone is now going to rush out to buy a 5080 because it's technically a screaming bargain compared to the 5090? I have no doubts Nvidia will try to test the waters...

If they care enough to spend $1200 on it then that's on them for letting nvidia have their way. I personally have never expected a flagship halo product (5090) to be reasonably priced, nor have I ever expected people who buy such products to bat an eye at pricing. The non flagship products on...
