    Samsung TV settings?

    I'll find the link. Yea I have the PC on HDMI 1 now w/ UHD Color. Works great. Just sucks that HDMI 1 is the only port. I was hoping I wouldn't have to swap HDMI cables back and forth w/ the PC/PS4 when I bought this (my old monitor only had 1 HDMI port) but If I want to use HDR I have too...

    Samsung TV settings?

    Cool. So you have the PS4 on HDMI 1 w/ UHD Color enabled on HDMI 1?

    Samsung TV settings?

    Then you miss my question/concern. Your only supposed to enable UHD Color if the source is 4K. Otherwise you can degrade the picture and sound. The Samsung book states this, and their forum posts in other places where this has occurred. So my main issue was, if the PS4, non 4K version has...

    Show Your LCD(s) setups!!!

    Do you have more details and photos from when you made it? I'm really interested in the top, the monitor mount setup and wire management.

    Samsung TV settings?

    So are you saying I still need to put the PS4 on HDMI 1 since it's the only port w/ 2.0a but just don't enable UHD Color and I'll still get HDR content?

    Samsung TV settings?

    I'm still learning and configuring my Samsung UN40KU7000. Now I know that only HDMI 1 has UHD Color for accepting a 4K HDR signal. Now, one of the new features on this TV's is HDR+. A lot of sites state that HDR+ is an HDR "Upscaler", and that you shouldn't use it for native HDR content. So...

    Samsung UN40KU7000 missing features?

    I just purchased the Samsung UN40KU7000 and aside from being let down that HDR is *only* available on HDMI 1 unless you pay for a Samsung SUHD TV. I've also noticed things I like PIP and MultiLink are gone. I did have this on much older version of Samsung TV's I've owned. Now, these features...

    New Samsung 4k for everyone.

    Which 7500 do you have? I'm concerned about using a 43" as a monitor. I used a 40 for like a day and it was ok, not sure how much of a difference it truly is though. I was reading some reviews of the 7500 though and they said this: "1) Reflective screen. In a work environment with lots of...

    New Samsung 4k for everyone.

    Looking to pickup a Samsung maybe this weekend. These are the 3 I'm looking at. I'm not sure what the difference is between them all, I think maybe the 7000 has HDR and the others don't? I'm not sure, but I have a ps4 so I wanted to have HDR. Hopefully someone can help me pick the right one...

    How in the world do you fix the annoying window re-sizing every time you change input sources?

    New Samsung 4k for everyone.

    I can't afford the 48" and didn't really want to go that high. Prior to deciding to get a TV I was going to get an Acer or Benq 32" IPS 4k so 40" is enough. How is the latest firmware on these?

    New Samsung 4k for everyone.

    Its funny, and I guess this happens to a lot of people. I used to go to the store, look for a nice monitor, most I knew was I'd like to have IPS, and I buy it and be happy as well. I use a 1080p LG 27" IPS for PC and PS4 and its been great. I never looked into all this. I made the mistake of...

    New Samsung 4k for everyone.

    I'm in the market for a 4k this weekend. Strictly for the PC & PS4. My finger's been hovering lately over the order button on a Korean 42" IPS 4K non PWM. Not only can I not decide between a Crossover and Wasabi but I'm too scared to order and have something be wrong with it. What is the...

    Hi guys, I need a little help connecting my audio. I never cared much about a speaker setup, usually I just use headphones. However recently I've had to go back to my old core 2 duo setup with is an Abit aw9d-max board. This board comes with a pcie audiomax 7.1 sound card. I am also using an...

    Printing type sound from the FPD2485W

    So Gateway wants me to unplug the monitor cable from my computer then boot up and test it again in Windows... Haven't gotten home from work yet to attempt it. I should have learned from my 21" Gateway. I might return it to Circuit City and save up for a Dell.

    Printing type sound from the FPD2485W

    I haven't even had this monitor a month yet. All of a sudden now when anything on the screen changes, be it a web page, mouse cursor or even text typing, there is a chirping sound that comes out of the monitor in the bottom right where you would turn it on or off. It almost sounds like an old...

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    Ok so per the chart : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:DVI_Connector_Types.svg The cable that comes with the monitor id DVI-D (Single Link) The connector on the bottom of the Monitor is DVI-D (Single link). Where as the back of the 8800's is DVI-D (Dual Link) and my original DVI...

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    I feel dumb even asking this. But... I bought my own DVI cable years ago when I purchased the 21" Gateway. Its very longer and with my desk setup its what I need. The DVI cable that came with this monitor is very short. I got to looking at it and noticed the DVI connections were...

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    Well the text is much sharper then the TN 245BW. I owned a 21" gateway for about 3 years but the horrible buzz it developed became to much. And I meant to type something in my previous post about what you just said. I can tell you that the Gateway does put off A LOT of heat compared to the...

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    Update I ran out to Circuit City as I found 1 store that had 1 Gateway FPD2485W left. They were replacing them all with the FPD2400 which is $200 more for HDMI? I ONLY use my monitors as PC monitors.. so didn't care. I grabbed the FPD2485W and Sat it next to the Samsung 245BW. Both...

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    Yes I tried all the suggestions on the 245BW threads. Also, My local Bestbuy has a Westinghouse L2410NM for $359 which is a 24" MVA. My local Circuit city has a Gateway FPD2485W 24" S-PVA $390.

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    Ok cool. I'm leaning more towards the BenQ although I am still considering the Gateway FHD2400. I just think I am too used to PVA pannels. Specifally the S-PVA, so hopefully the P-MVA is just as good if not better. Where is the best placed to Purchase the BenQ? I also just notced the BenQ...

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    Actually I think I've narrowed it down.. I will either get the BenQ FP241W, LG L246WP or Gateway FHD2400 Any thoughts on these 3? Are any of them the "glossy" HP type screens? (don't like that much)

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    So I'm thinking about going with a 24" dell or possibly a 30" dell. Any big flaws with these models or are the dell's still pretty sweet?

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    Just slumping down by 1" in my seat, lowing my head just a tiny bit while still sitting straight "like a turtle pulling its head in" the screen gets darker. I guess that is normal for TN? (I must admit I'm just learning this panel terminology today). Its just really hard to get use to a color...

    So I bought a Samsung 245BW

    I went out to Sams club and purchased the Samsung 245BW tonight. I really don't think I can keep this monitor. The reds look like crap, the blue look like crap and overall I can't get used to this display. Sitting at the level I do at my desk; everything is bright below and dark up top...

    Samsung vs. Westinghouse vs. HP

    I'll be honest with you, up until today I had never heard of IPS or MVA/PVA or TN panel. I don't know how, at least when in the store to tell although I did find some websites that assist with this. All things aside, consider price range. Lets say $700 is the max. What do you suggest?

    Samsung vs. Westinghouse vs. HP

    I'm currently reviewing monitors. I'm looking to make a purchase this week. Trying to stay below $500 but I can possibly go over. I'm currently using an older Gateway 22inch that developed the horrid "bzzzzz" sound. Its about 2 years old. My local Sams Club has the Samsung 24inch 245BW for...

    I didn't hear it didn't work.. I'm saying I can't get it to work. I have Guitar Hero III for the PC.. GAME ONLY. And I plugged my Xbox 360 Rock Band guitar into the PC. Only the Green Fret button works when playing and it activates the orange fret button.. It also doesn't strum. On...

    Guitar Hero III (PC)

    Anyone know if there is away to get the Xbox 360 USB Guitar to work with GHIII for the PC? I know there is a big issue with all the different console versions blocking each others guitar, but for the PC I figured there would be a hack or work around? I've used the few different Joy Stick to...

    Help me pick a heatsink please

    I've read review after review and nothing seems to match up. I'm primarily looking for those who are also running an Abit AW9D-MAX board and what heatsink w/ fan your using. I'm looking for cooling that will greatly surpass the stock intel fan yet remain as quiet as well especially under...

    Zalman Coolers

    Upon further searching, which are the quieter setups? The taller solutions like the CNPS9500 or the CNPS7700. The CNPS7700 seems to come up a lot when I go through the silent pc articles but I've noticed a recent trend in the CNPS9500 style.

    Zalman Coolers

    All of the "Build a quiet PC" articles and "My quiet PC" threads I was reading were pretty old. But based on what I did read one of the most quiet CPU coolers I found was the Zalman CNPS7700-Cu. Now considering the age of the articles (mid 2006) is their a more quiet Zalman cooler at this point?
