    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    Had a 38GL950G with 17k hours of use, both work and play. It is a perfect sized monitor, but the 42's can be perfect also if you set a little further back from them. The 42UQ is my first Oled, so I'm not keeping it on as much as I did with the 38. It did take a few days to get re-adjusted to a...

    Saw the answer was posted already. Thank you all! Found this video today that mentions the same thing.

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    The one where if you leave the desktop on, it gets progressively dimmer over time. That is ABSL? Thank you. Does this require the service remote I've been reading about to disable on the Asus? It was one of the reasons I returned the C2. There's a third party App called Color control that...

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    It appears the ABL is a lot less aggressive on the Asus compared to the C2. It doesn't engage nearly as much with out of the box settings compared to the C2.

    42" OLED MASTER THREAD

    Bought the C2 Yesterday and already noticed that. Glad to hear it's not the same on the Asus. I'm also having problems with Color Control. We have 77 inch c2 in the living room wired, while the 42 is bluetooth connected. Color control see's both panels, but when I try to click the box on the...

    Banks Should Let Ancient Programming Language COBOL Die

    I've worked as a mainframe coder for a bank for the last 12 years. While the concern for upkeep is justified, the issue is basically supply and demand. Wages for Cobol haven't gone up in 20 years. The short-term solution has been to off-shore resources with the obvious goal to save money, but...

    LG's 2016 OLED series (E6,B6,G6,C6)

    Question for those using Oled as a gaming monitor. Does the lack of motion blur compensate for the lack of G-sync? Also, are you using v-syn on, or off? If off, do you notice any screen tearing?

    34" 21:9 UltraWide Displays (3440x1440) - LG UM95/UM65 & Dell U3415W

    I was searching for information on this monitor and someone on the macrumor forums mentioned that you can order it in Europe now. Have not confirmed.

    Asus PQ321 4k Monitor 3840x2160 IGZO Display

    4k panels that operate at 120hz exist currently. However, no one has developed the controller boards to use existing connection standards to power them (e.g. splitting the screen into 3 separate regions so that each region could operate at 120hz through a dvi cable. This would require 3 inputs...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Overclocking Review @ [H]

    I'd say water-cooling will get you an extra 50-100mhz on the core while keeping temps in the 40's under load. Water-cooling only removes temperature as a limiting factor. As Brent found out, 80c is a hard limit in the bios. I'm running a modded bios with the following: MSI afterburner for the...

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Overclocking Review @ [H]

    There is a 700+ page thread over on overclock.net discussing this card and how to overclock it. Long story short: you will get even more out of these cards by flashing to a custom bios that gets around power, heat, and voltage restrictions/fluctuations.

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    Mark, I've disassembled my Asus 248QE's to debezel them, and found that the vesa mounts were in the plastic. This led me to completely disassemble the panel in order to get the controller boards out of the controller cage to drill some holes. There's not a whole lot going on behind the plastic...

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    So Mark, I understand from your post that you are volunteering to be the creative director.. as well as one of the technology officers for this endeavor.(of course this would have a scanning backlight for 60hz/ 100hz/ 120/hz with the flick of a button) Maybe we can get Vega on board and make...

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    So ... I've found some information out... 39" panels at 4k can be bought for ~ 430 USD each if you buy in bulk. All that is needed is to design a controller board. I've discussed this idea with a company that builds controller boards for LCD panels and they have said it is doable. However...

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    Zurv, 3840x2160@120hz is somewhere close to 35Gbit/sec worth of bandwidth. Display-port 1.2 transfers ~ 21.6 Gbit/sec worth of bandwidth. The only way to currently provide enough bandwidth for that resolution / refresh would be 2DP connections. But for the sake of making it compatible with NV...

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    It's not the panels that have trouble doing 60hz. The controller boards are not designed to do 120hz on a panel of that resolution due to the fact that no single cable has enough throughput bandwidth. If they designed a controller board to accept 3 inputs, then the bandwidth limitation could be...

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    Morkai - it would be taking advantage of the driver technology already present in Eyefinity and NV surround. Essentially each input into the monitor would control 1/3 of the monitor. You'd then use the graphic cards' software to combine them into one big monitor without any bezels.

    Maybe this should be a kickstarter! What would be the brand-name for this monitor?

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    Vega, Correct. A controller board with either 3 dvi, or 3 dp 1.2. You would have enough bandwidth to drive the panel with 2 DP 1.2 cables, but I understand that nv surround and eyefinity don't like 2 inputs. As for jerry rigging, I'd gladly trade in my bezels, gorilla tape, and zip ties for 3...

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    There are people that do it... Vega comes to mind as the most over the top guy for hardware.

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    With current technology, it would take quite a bit. 3240x1920 (3 portrait 1080p) runs well with 2 titans giving an effective diagonal of 40 inches. 3840x2160(4k) would probably take 3 titans...

    4k Resolution @ 120hz PC Monitor

    The panels exist. All that's needed is to design the controller board. How many people would buy something like this if it was expedited to market? I personally think that this is easily 3-5 years away if we wait for the big companies to push something out. However, I think most of the parts...

    Asus VG248QE 144hz 3D Vision 2: The Official Thread

    I ended up disconnecting all the electronics to the panel, pulled the circuit boards out of the back cage, and drilled 4 holes for screws facing outward.

    Asus VG248QE 144hz 3D Vision 2: The Official Thread

    Question - I've debezelled this monitor. The Vesa mounting brackets are in the back of the plastic bezel. There is no where to mount screws on the inside metal casing. I'm at a loss here on how to get the mount back on without the bezel. Vega has a video of his success, and has been the person...

    Diablo 3 Account Hacked

    I think the single best thing you can do to protect your account: Set up an email account specifically for this game. Never use it to send mail, but only to receive replies from blizzard. Also, use a password that is unique to battle.net only, and not some sports website that you happen to be...

    Creating a Custom PCB to accept native 120hz input for 120hz panel

    Hi All, In looking into information regarding the 'Catleap' monitors that can supposedly achieve 80-120hz based on the PCB driver board, I had an interesting thought. We all ready have 120hz/240hz/600hz panels available on the market today(mostly for movies or televison, and not for...
