    LG 45″ OLED Ultrawide 5120 x 2160@165Hz 45GX990A and 45GX950A

    TFTCentral have said they are in the middle of testing the 45GX950A right now, and should have their review out in a week. They usually have extensive colour accuracy tests and evaluation.

    LG 45″ OLED Ultrawide 5120 x 2160@165Hz 45GX990A and 45GX950A

    It looks like the 990A is motorised as hoped by some here: https://tftcentral.co.uk/news/lgs-new-45-ultrawide-oled-monitors-with-5k2k-resolution-showcased-at-ces-2025 Also got a little excited until I realised it wasn't QD-OLED...

    It doesn't look like it so far. However with the announcement and release of Samsung's 27" 4k QD-OLED panels, they definitely have a manufacturing process that supports that level of PPI, so I can't see a technical reason why they couldn't compete unless it doesn't scale to larger format...

    Highly individual preference. Personally had 1000r on 34" Ulrawide and loved it and 800R is a big plus, especially on something as physically wide as a 45". But you'll find many people who abhor any curve at all.

    BF Bad Company 2 will not support hardware sound acceleraton :(

    Is this confirmed by the devs? I know with Source games that the headphone output was generated by the sound engine differently than the various surround settings, just not as good as true HRTF processed sound.

    BF Bad Company 2 will not support hardware sound acceleraton :(

    Just set your creative control panel to headphones, then set your windows configuration to 5.1 or 4 speaker setup. The windows configuration really only has bearing on games that use it to choose how to output the sound channels in their games. For BC2, you can make sure windows is set to 5.1...

    BF Bad Company 2 will not support hardware sound acceleraton :(

    I think personally HiFi is the best. Going to try 4 speaker instead of 5.1 as well. I know with Source based games that use their own software audio rendering, 4 speaker worked better with positional cues than 5.1.

    100% correct Bop. Have done some extensive testing with BC2 and my Auzentech Forte with my Beyerdynamics. Best setting is similar to what you should set for all games when your using any X-Fi derivative and headphones: Set windows speakers to 5.1 Set creative control panel to Game mode and...

    Razer Megalodon 7.1 Headset

    Bugger... was hoping to track down some more info on it, as facts are a little thin on the ground. It may end up being a steaming pile of shit, but I'm not going to jump to any conclusions until we get a bit more info/reviews.

    Razer Megalodon 7.1 Headset

    Actually their technical whitepaper (while lacking exact details) is pretty much right on the money with HRTF and solutions to date and where their deficiencies are. I really don't know whether the Maelstrom engine is using an XF-I chip, do you have a source to back up that bit of info? From...

    Razer Megalodon 7.1 Headset

    Dragging this old thread up as the release date has been announced for the 30th. Anybody looking at getting these? I'm going to hold off until some trusted reviews come out first. Plus I really hope the headset can be removed and you can use your own cans.

    Razer Megalodon 7.1 Headset

    I'm really interested to see how the Maelstrom sound engine turns out, and how well it performs HRTF translation of 3d sound sources in games. This will most likely work as the X-Fi's CMSS3d does now with taking the 4/5.1/7.1 sound channel information from the game and using it's own...
