Thanks for the link SoCali! That is concerning, especially as all the TV tested had their panel saving features enabled. I guess time will tell if the 3rd gen QD-OLED show any improvement in longevity.

Is anyone using these OLED's for productivity work? I know in the Reddit forums so many people say they are for gaming only, and to stay away as if you do any sort of work with static UI elements you will get burn in, but checking the accounts of the users saying this it appears that almost none...

I'm not sure what the heck is going on with the TCL monitor, but two customer service reps have now told me they that the webpages for the new HVA monitors are in error and they have no plans of releasing any PC peripherals. I've even sent emails to their main support asking for clarification...

I like how active the MSI reps are on Reddit! Always a good sign.

This one sounds promising too. The Hisense 27G7K-PRO. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Hisense-27G7K-PRO-4K-160-Hz-gaming-monitor-debuts-with-1-152-dimming-zones.828730.0.html

Nope. Even TCL seems to have no idea when it is going to be released in North America. Apparently French retailers have the 34" display listed for sale for 1100 Euros.

Another review of the Chinese branded Thunderbird 雷鸟U8 using the same panel. Their conclusion? The best 4k monitor currently on market. I'm relieved to see that the HVA panel seems to have addressed the smearing typically associated with VA panels. Excited about this one, I just wish there was...

I tried installing the Epic Store version I owned as well, and it has the same issues. Strangely, if you run the game in DX11, the artifacts show as white boxes. Same thing, runs fine with MSAA or DLSS off, but glitches with these features enabled. As everything else seems to be running great...

As mentioned in my OP, it is the GamePass version.

I I just read through the Steam forums, and it seams that others are having visual glitches with MSAA or DLSS enabled when running DX12. The Gamepass option doesn't give an option which render to use, but maybe it defaults to DX12? Anyways, I'm not going to worry too much as it seems like...

Corsair cable worked like a charm and everything seems to be working great. Just need to print off a support brace for the card as the included one was too tall for my chasis.

Hey guys! Finally got my 4090 installed and wow, what an upgrade from my old 3070!! Anyways, everything seems stable and runs great except for one game I've tried - Control. It doesn't matter if I have raytracing enabled or disabled, or have high or low settings, as soon as I enable DLSS or...

Hopefully we see some benchmarks soon from the TCL unit. My interest is certainly piqued.

The 2182 maximum nits It was on one of the Chinese review sites that tested the maximum peak brightness at different window sizes. I'll see if I can find the page again, but it had a chart going from 100% to 50% window size I believe. When searching for reviews, google this: 雷鸟U8 评论 and it...

Found out on Reddit the Chinese version of the TCL 27" has been released and reviews are up. It is called the 雷鸟U8 and has the same bezel stand / and panel as the TCL 27" 4k unit. Reviews seem great! Black blacks. Little to no haloing with the HVA panel using local dimming. Vibrant color and...

Awesome! Thanks! I might do the hair blower trick to soften the cable up slightly and then attempt the bend. Wish me luck!

I sent them a message and am hoping I hear back from them soon. From what I've read on their forums, it sounds like the split 6+2 cables are good to go for 300 watts each. Just need to confirm with Corsair.

I had actually looked at that earlier, but my huge ass Noctua cooler goes right to the top of the 4090 card so there is no room for the cable to return along the top of the card. Everything in build is just too damn big! Haha

So I picked up a 4090 and went to install today running into a few issues. I have a Corsair RM1000X power supply which was previously connected to a 3070 using two split 6+2 connectors running from two separate rails on the power supply. As such, I had planned on using the included 4 x 8 pin to...

OMG, and it's semi glossy too! Happy happy joy joy! I've found my new monitor! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5e1mOSCiBg

This one seems to check all the boxes! The TCL 27R83U. Likely just marketing speak, but they are claiming this is a QD-MiniLED integrating technology from OLED panels into a MiniLED display. I'd definitely take that with a grain of salt, but will be interesting to see some reviews...

That's my concern too! I'm using a Aorus FI-27QP currently, and according to reviews it hits a peak brightness of about 400 nits. I run it at 50% brightness though, and according to other review sites this puts it at 250 - 275 nits which is in the same ballpark as the current crop of OLED...

I just saw one of these at my local computer store and what a beautiful display! Reminds me of the my old CRTs. I know it is not recommended, but is anyone using one of these for productivity work? I honestly didn't notice any issues with text on the display model, and from what I've read they...

SoCali - I was looking at that display but several Reddit users reported having to return the panel as the anti-glare coating is so aggressive it made it text difficult to read. Pity more panel manufacturers don't offer a clear, glossy display!

Thanks, and yes I had read through that thread. Seems like if a person is looking for a new Mini-LED with local dimming from a major manufacturer that 32" seems to be the only new options. Too bad as like I said 32" just seems physically too big for my own liking. Dough seems to have a 27"...

I've been having a hard time trying to find a 4K panel upgrade for my graphics workstation / gaming box. I would like to go with Mini-LED as I don't want to have to worry about the burn in associated with OLED displays. I did have a look at some newer 32" displays, and I honestly think they...

Thanks for all the info! I'm currently running 2560 x 1440 on a 27" too but just got a 4090 and am looking forward to 4K as well! Just trying to decide whether to go Mini-LED or OLED, and so far am leaning towards to Mini-LED with the burn in issues with current gen OLEDS.

Glad you were able to get it calibrated! I have been looking at this monitor as well, and was concerned with the poor display quality you posted about. I'm a bit confused though, you said HDR was off when you did your original calibration. Did you mean it was turned off on the display, but still...

Oh that's disappointing to hear. :( Is this based on your own experience with the display or were you able to find a review of the panel?

Has anyone here tried a LG27GR95UM? Specs sound very impressive. 27", 4k, HDR1000, 1560 local dimming zones, ATW polarizer, semi glossy, and G-Sync and Freesync compatible up to 160Hz. Apparently when released it had some issues with the local dimming and HDR content, but reading through the few...

Are there any 27" or 32" glossy Mini-LED panels coming out in the year ahead? Seems like lots of glossy OLEDS, but we are still stuck with dull looking matte IPS screens. :(

Ok, good to know! Thanks.

I'm looking to make the move to 4k and would like to find a glossy 27"+ high refresh rate display with HDR600 or higher support. Are the Dough displays my only option? The Innocn 32M2V checks all the boxes, but is unfortunately a matte display. Any there other displays I'm missing? Thanks in...

Game seems fun so far! Is anyone else having problems with the adaptive eye exposure though? For example, when it is near dusk or morning time the inside of my car and the sky outside is almost black, but when I jump to an exterior view everything is properly lit. I did a google search and saw a...

It's for the foreseeable future from what I've been told. At my local computer shop the guys working there say they can take any 3000 series card and sell it for almost $1000 CDN more than the MSRP. They said it won't be till 2023 at the earliest before prices come down so the fact is if you...

Found the fix! Apparently the game has issues with Logitech G Hub and it needs to be disabled. After doing this it runs at a steady 144 FPS now. https://www.reddit.com/r/Back4Blood/comments/oz4qkv/mice_polling_rate_and_lagfreezing/

Is anyone else getting horrible stutter in this? When I go to look around, the game freezes for a half a second, plays smoothly for maybe a second, then freezes for half a second again. I am running the Gamepass version on low settings with DLSS set to performance on a Ryzen 3950X, 64GB ram...

Have been having fun with this on Game pass! Just wondering what the two red bars are on the lower right of the screen. I am assuming one is health, but what is the second bar?

Thanks for the update, Dr. Nut. I just recieved my externally powered USB hub, and even with this connected by devices still drop out under full load. I don't know where to go from here. AMD and Gigabyte both say my external USB devices are faulty, but I know this is not the case as they all...

I have not done any manual overclocking with my 3950X and am running into these issues. I did try manually setting my SOC voltage to 1.2 using Ryzen Master and it was reading as 1.197 using HWInfo up from the 1.087 using the auto voltage. I still get the USB disconnects when full load is applied...
