Thank you for the review. Going back to percentage mathematics, the % computations for "Time in Seconds - Lower is better" graphs are systematically incorrect. For an example, consider the Blender test in...

There was just a moderate price cut announced for 1950X (https://www.techspot.com/news/71582-amd-cut-price-ryzen-threadripper-1950x-880.html). I wonder if this might be any signal for a more complete 24 or 32 physical cores variants of Threadripper incoming? Or do you think it's more about AMD...

Coincidentally this came up in another thread at https://hardforum.com/threads/considering-the-bl3201pt-to-upgrade-from-43x800d-do-i-need-quadro-for-10-bits.1941528/#post-1043160681 just recently. The conclusion is that indeed NVidia supports 10bit on 1080 (and probably also on several older...

Ah, reading here seems to confirm the same: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/985731/linux/gtx-1060-375-26-not-output-10-bit-color/post/5050337/#5050337 , NVidia deliberately chooses to only support fullscreen Direct3D applications with 10bpc, likely because PhotoShop and others use...

That got me curious. Implemented a Direct3D11 test application to try out 10bpc display mode. With DXGI_FORMAT_R10G10B10A2_UNORM (https://msdn.microsoft.com/fi-fi/library/windows/desktop/mt427455(v=vs.85).aspx), had no trouble creating an exclusive fullscreen mode application that renders a...

I have the BenQ BL3201PT, used it on an ASUS GTX 980 Ti and now on an ASUS GTX 1080 Ti. On both GPUs, it has been possible to go to NVidia's Display settings and set up 10bpc output depth. See http://imgur.com/a/wQheo . (options there are 8bpc and 10bpc) However I cannot say I would see any...

It is a common misconception to compare human reaction times to whatever the input/network/pixel response lag happens to be. For online gaming and competitive gaming, where contestants compete against each other on reaction times, all the times add up, and the contestant who has the fastest...

I have felt the same with TVs and displays for several years now. Stagnation, slow releases etc. But then I think back in time, and compare to other pieces of tech industry, and I find that for me it is actually not that I could say that displays somehow lag behind other hardware, but that the...

Sure, seeing such articles might not be interesting to you, but just because you don't play games on a laptop on battery doesn't mean that nobody else wouldn't. I think this would be the angle from which to look at the new low level APIs that would highlight where the differences are. I...

HardOCP does some really nice performance benchmarks, but there is one aspect that I really feel should be included specifically when doing API performance comparisons. That is, please consider including CPU % utilization, GPU % utilization and system total power wattage utilization to the mix...

Now that the reviews have started to pour in, the results sadly look exactly like I anticipated before launch. Hexus.net concludes that the thermal solution is indeed too weak: "Cooler holds potential back". PC Perspective ranks the card among the loudest of the bunch in their review, although...

In AnandTech's article about the new board announcement, these two sentences popped out: "the handful of pictures released so far confirm that the card will be following NVIDIA’s previous reference design, in the new GTX 1000 series triangular style. This means we’re looking at a blower based...

I have a LG 79UF860V (scandinavian model number for a 2015 LG 4K TV model with WebOS2, unfortunately not quite sure what the euro/us/other region model number for that is) connected via HDMI 2 to a PC, and it is working very well. There were quite a few options that needed to be configured for...
