    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    No i'm talking about a panel revision. Amazon even has two gategories you can buy, 2020 version and 2021 version, which according to some comments i've seen are not actually entirely the same.

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    One question. There's some comments i found on google that suggest the newer version of this panel is not as good as the older one? Is that actually the case?

    How accurate is AMD's temperature control?

    Has anybody tested how accurate the AMD one is? On the 27GL850 the calibration for the sRGB mode is CLEARLY not the same as in the other modes and i don't have any other mean of comparison for the AMD temperature control. Right now i just prefer it because i can at least change the contrast...

    How accurate is AMD's temperature control?

    I just tried this on my 27GL850 and the results kinda suprised me. I don't have any instrument to measure how close i got to sRGB but at glance it actually doesn't seem bad at all. Seems like i don't have to use the sRGB emulation mode of my monitor (which locks me out of everything except...

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    Well, this is disappointing: https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/pjgoxb/what_are_your_current_opinions_on_the_samsung_g7/ "I had a g7 32 for 9 months or so and ended up selling it to grab an XB323U GX. The g7 was a good panel, but the colours always felt dull and the great contrast was...

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    Is the flat one going to be VA also? This looks great but the price is a bit out there.

    Shopping for a VA screen to pair with my LG 27GL850

    So i'm the only one with the idea of getting BOTH IPS and VA? Man does this industry suck. Ayy this would be a pretty severe deal breaker.

    Shopping for a VA screen to pair with my LG 27GL850

    When i tried those Samsungs (27CHG70) i had no problem with ghosting (i saw it, but i wasn't too bothered by it) but the blotching was super annoying and a deal breaker. I found this post which seems to suggest there ARE in fact differences between VA screens...

    Shopping for a VA screen to pair with my LG 27GL850

    I like my LG and i've been happy with it since i bought it but that low contrast ratio and IPS glow is really starting to grate on my nerves. I use my PC for everything, including watching movies and i was thinking of adding a secondary screen to cover up that deficiency. I'm wondering if there...

    Dune Games in 2020

    Doesn't a simplistic strategy game sort of defeats the purpose?

    32GN600-B, anybody has experience with this monitor?

    Opps, nevermind it seems a review has appeared since last time i checked (which admittedly was a few months ago: https://tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/lg-32gn600 Not sure what the "-B" stands for but i assume this is the same monitor. I actually assumed the 165Hz was a tall order for a VA to keep...

    32GN600-B, anybody has experience with this monitor?

    I have an LG 27GL850 and i was looking to complement it with a VA for better contrast to use as an alternative. I'd prefer a flat VA as i've had some bad experiences with curved Samsung models (mostly some blotching or clouding, which kind defeats the point of having a VA). I was originally...

    Outdated game mechanics.

    That's because you don't realize how much actual "meat" has been stripped from the genre, starting with exploration, complex level design, clever enemy placement and strategic gunplay. There's a reason people still play games like the original Doom to this day, and why they keep making content...

    Is 2021 a dud for gaming?

    Doom Eternal was a breath of fresh air for me. On Nightmare, the game actually requires a kind of skill that has been kinda of missing in modern shooters. This is an overused comparison but in a sense it shares something with games like Dark Souls. The room where you get the super shotgun is a...

    Blizzard/Activation being hit by the Perfect Storm. Will they survive?

    The issue is this "believe women" crap, another example of why innocent until proven guilty ought to apply in all walks of life. It would also help if it was a little harder for companies to just fire people on a whim because it is easier to get rid of an accused indivial rather than attempt...
