Well, I live in the US- It's selling for $200 new on Amazon- but of course you get the 7yr warranty with that (at this rate I highly doubt EVGA will be around even in 2yrs). I can put it on ebay I guess- Shipping will probably cost at least $25, then I will have to take money off for the...

My old (8yrs) EVGA 1300 G2 Gold was making all sorts of strange noises in my new 7900x/7900xtx build so I purchased a Vetroo 1000 because it got good reviews on Blurbusters and was only $110. Seems more than adequate but I think there is a tiny bit of coil whine (can’t hear it over the 7900xtx...

I had a GTX 295 for a while. It was an odd card. I remember it being super-powerful at the time but as with any dual-gpu card it tended to be glitchy- but when it worked, it was amazing.

I guess I’ll put it on eBay before the value goes down too much. I think I waited too long already.

It's locked out on the HDR1000 setting which does all the automatic adjustments with Windows. Ideally that would be the way to handle it. If I set it to HDR Game mode I can turn off dimming which solves most of my issues- which I did. It's just more difficult to find the right setting. BTW-...

I'm am talking mostly about Freesync flicker in combination with HDR which (particularly on AMD cards) causes this strange dimming effect where the whole screen would get lighter and darker. That first article I linked to at Displayninja explains it much better than I could. Unfortunately on...

I think Windows Game HDR is implemented in Hogwarts because if you use the Calibration Tool on the Microsoft Store to calibrate your screen first it appears the settings filter over. It still looks washed out tho.

I https://www.displayninja.com/how-to-change-freesync-range-using-cru/ I wasn't using CRU correctly to adjust my Freesync range- I followed this guide to lower my range to 42 and the constant dimming pretty much stopped in Hogwarts. Now I have to figure out how to adjust HDR properly so it...

I’m on the latest firmware. I tried CRU to tweak a little but unfortunately the Freesync range of this display is so narrow that if I adjust it the screen will periodically “blank” out completely. I guess I’ll be upgrading my display a lot sooner than I thought. I’ll just have to make sure any...

I just started playing Hogwarts, and it's really the first game I've sat down and played on my newish 7900xtx. First thing I noticed was that there was some kind of HDR dimming issue, where the whole screen would continuously get brighter/darker/brighter/darker. I've found a few reddit posts...

Don’t make me put this on eBay.

All these mods and the game hasn’t even been officially released yet. Glad I’m holding off for a while. By the time I finish Hogwarts there should be a ton of mods for it. Since it’s a single player game it’s not like I’ll be missing anything.

I don’t think enough people are aware of this forum.

I thought most of Hardforum was above the console wars/pc master race nonsense? I guess I was wrong. Who cares how you play, just that you do.

Stop. A lot of us like to play while sitting on the couch. A controller is the easiest way to do this.

Picked it up on sale at Greenmangaming for $35. Any recommendations for mods to use for a first play through?

That guy never sleeps.

I think I'll wait it out a bit and pick up Hogwarts for $35 at Greenmangaming.

I don't want to live in the country you do where 11yr olds vote.

Seems legit. I'm more interested in seeing how XeSS looks/performs on AMD boards.

So this is a lot like Outer Worlds? They never said it was going to be a space-sim.

Again, HDR10 is what we are talking about- and now Win11 has an auto-HDR feature which should make it even easier to implement. As I said before- Ubisoft has been doing it right since 2017. HDR10 can be implemented properly on PCs if the devs just put a little effort into it. That's fine if...

We are talking about HDR10. That's it. That's the standard- any tv that supports 10+/DV/HLG supports HDR10 so that's where we start- particularly for PC gaming. The only two PC games I know of that support DV are Mass Effect Andromeda and Battlefield 1. There are no DV enabled monitors, just TVs.

If you're speaking about gaming that's because you haven't seen it implemented properly. If you're talking about TV/Theatrical content, well, I don't know what to say. Proper HDR can make a bigger difference than resolution.

Say what you will about Ubisoft, but their HDR implementation has been stellar since Assassin's Creed Origins back in 2017. So anyone can get it right if they put some effort into it- and clearly Bethesda did not- they didn't even place priority in getting SDR looking good.

https://steamcommunity.com/app/1716740/discussions/0/3824173464656784022/?ctp=2#c3824173464658978011 How to turn on Auto-HDR in Win11. It works. Looks a little better but still screwed up. I also find it a bit odd that there's no exclusive full-screen mode in the game. Wouldn't that improve...

The more I read about the game the less desire I have to play it. I'll wait until they fix some of the major issues. At least get SDR looking right.

Bump

I thought Hypr-rx was basically just a “one-button” press settings adjustment form the end user because of settings overload on the Adrenaline suite?

Fri.

Early access Fri. And AMD is saying they're not stopping Bethesda from adding it. Apparently after giving their sponsored companies money for game deals they "suggest" they add FSR support. I'm sure many games companies (particularly the smaller ones) don't want to make waves with AMD after...

If I see another 10’ DisplayPort cable for not too much I’ll pick it up. I also have a 25ft fiber HDMI cable I have yet to try with my 7900xtx to my Vizio. Interested to see if I can get 120Hz/VRR working with it,

Well I have the Jedi Survivor Origin game key. I hear the game is a mess and I have no desire playing it. I just want to be sure it’s open to anyone now because once I sell if someone claims they can’t register it I’ll be SOL, Happy to have the free Starfield key tho. I wasn’t so thrilled to...

I think the codes are normal keys after being redeemed (don’t quote me though). I got a AMD code for Jedi Survivor and authorized it through their site so now I have an Origin key I haven’t redeemed. I’m tempted to try and sell it- it should work on anyone’s setup, shouldn’t it?

Bump.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/1614l34/first_look_at_amd_fidelityfx_super_resolution_3/ Well, no FSR3 support for Starfield is pretty much confirmed which is...astounding to me considering it's an AMD sponsored title and they are releasing both at the same time. Seems like a huge...

Yes but they're not Starfield. You would think if FSR3 was any good they'd be shouting it from the mountaintops that Starfield supports it. I guess we'll find out next week.

They'll probably add it, just later. https://hardforum.com/threads/amd-announces-forespoken-and-immortals-of-aveum-as-first-fsr3-games.2030130/ It doesn't matter- going by the topic I just posted in the AMD forum it appears that FSR3 is probably shit anyways.

https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-fidelityfx-super-resolution-3-fsr3-is-coming-soon-to-forspoken-and-immortals-of-aveum That means it must not be very good. Starfield isn't even on the list. AMD really needs to step up- Nvidia is outpacing them in leaps and bounds. I can see why they might want...

Please don’t suck.
