RTings review is up...
in their color calibrated section they used:
RGB Controls 100-92-79
Gamma Setting 2.2
which is close to what I was running when I first got it.. but I noticed some weird artifacting if gamma is set to anything but off, and quite a brightness...
Great. 4K120Hz@10bit@4:4:4 is still 32gbps. The PS5 has to support more for audio channels and command and control.
Back to this monitor, which doesn't support even 32gbps, doesn't properly support the 25gbps it's supposed to, and looks terrible in HDR mode anyway.
4k120 4:4:4 @ 10bit is 32gbps
Whats more, 4k120 4:4:4 @ 8bit is 25gbps, which is supported on DP 1.3 and 1.4, yet this monitor will not do without DSC.
Being unable to distinguish between two levels of brightness is the definition of crush. LG's panel is still well behind samsung's phone panels, but it's pretty good. Gigabytes firmware is not very good, but it works. This monitor should see some steep discounts honestly.
Yeah you can stop trying to fix it, it's highly reproducible. It's doing per pixel analyzing to control the panel brightness and sometimes it poops 'em.
I had a youtube video the other day that caused it to max the brightness on a scene change, it didn't even care if the OSD was on screen or...

10 completely crushes box 1 and mostly crushes 2 for me. Compared 444 and RGB limited and full and it's the same in all three. This is the first monitor I've ever had that correctly auto identifies RGB range tho.
It's the best it has been in years if you've kept up. And it does per pixel analyzing and doesn't have web features...
I've left the taskbar... un-hidden... and so far no sign of anything
Ok, another setting I can't decide on.. Black Equalizer on 10 has black pixels completely off, but exhibits black crush. Black equalizer on 11 fixes the black crush, but black is no longer completely off. Decisions, decisions.
Can't correct out the heavy green tint when in HDR mode. Maybe I am doing it wrong?
Every panel type has that characteristic that I try to balance out with picture settings.... This OLED's yellows and reds remind me of DLP. I think I will spend the next year fiddling the green level up and...
So Gigabyte responded today and sent me the F02 firmware; it's from April surprisingly. I flashed it and it did indeed restore the resolutions and timings for the DP connection. Oddly it is now called RTK UHD.
Windows no longer recognizes it as HDR capable tho weird...
Ok so if anyone is...
Damn that sucks I guess the world is just out to get me. Were you on DP when you flashed it?
And support answers your e-mails? Now I just don't believe you.
Sweet, maybe the ransomers will publish the firmware I need to fix mine, Gigabyte sure won't help me.
Also of note is the ABL and protection schemes sometimes freaking out on non-fullscreen content and dumping the brightness to min for a frame or two or just thinking it is idle and requiring...
Not sure I agree, feels like they found the absolute cheapest way to put an HDMI 2.1 label on the box.
All Gigabyte brought is; a power supply that makes a loud click when it turns on and off, a scaler that takes forever to lock on, and absolutely no support.
Seriously try loading the...
Still downloads for me. Looks like what it did to mine was corrupt the EDID for the DisplayPort. I copied the timings from the HDMI port into a custom resolution over DP and it works.
Yeah the Vivid mode the firmware update added just pushes the 50% window brightness a bit, no difference on full screen white and frankly I went back to one of the custom profiles as it seemed overexposed. I contacted Gigabyte's support to try and get the original firmware to downgrade to, they...
Updating to the latest firmware from Gigabyte's site bricked the DisplayPort input. Initially thought it bricked the entire monitor as it will only accept 640x480 over DP and is not detected via USB when a DP cable is plugged in. Plugged in HDMI however and it works fine, reflashed the...
First impressions (& my first oled): 1) Full screen bright images do cause a noticable brightness drop, but it's instant not a fade and not unreasonable 2) Out of the box the white balance is atrocious, all the color temp presets are terrible as well, but manual adjustment is a massive...
I'd love to compare and contrast it to the 50" KS8000 (6900:1 4k 60hz VA) that I have been using for the past four years.... but Newegg STILL HASN'T SHIPPED THE SECOND TRY OMFGASDFHJK
