Stumbled onto this thread as I'm looking at the same issue. I just upgraded to Comcast 1200 service, and all of my infrastructure is for 1Gb max. I'm pulling a solid 940mb/sec, but looking to upgrade. Why do routers have 2.5Gb WAN ports but not LAN ports? I guess I could use the XB7 as the...

Thanks! Can't wait to finally pair it with my 48CX.

After 2 months of trying, I was finally able to snag a 3080 FE off of Best Buy this morning.

Needs to be an option for "maybe". Have two pre-orders in the hopper (Amazon.de and Adorama), so I don't know if I have one or not.

Looks like GAINWARD branded 3090s and 3080s were posted to their website too early, and subsequently removed. Screengrabs were captured however. Confirmed HDMI 2.1 on both. Interestingly enough though is that the listing for the 3080 states 2 8-pin connectors for the power requirement...

Thank you!

Sorry if this has been answered before, but how to I rename/change the input label to PC?

Standard Best Buy language for when they are out of stock. There would be red lettering under the description if they were discontinuing the sale of the item. On another note...as soon as I decided it was time to pull the trigger, Best Buy sold out...lol

Nice...one of my old threads. I actually picked up the 43S525 back in 2018, and I'm still using it today. I didn't see any update from this year's CES regarding a new 5 series replacement for monitor use. Did anyone get info on what may be coming this year for that purpose?

I still have two one them! One actively used in portrait mode next to my 43" 4k TCL, and one in the closet as a spare. Bought them each for about $215 or so...I think I've gotten pretty good value out of them. :)

I guess it's what bothers you then. I don't notice it at all when I game or watch movies on it. Maybe I'm just not that sensitive as I don't notice PWM flicker either. About the only thing that drives me up the wall are banding issues.

Pic of my TV with your background...I'm not the best judge, but it looks pretty good to me:
