About a month or so ago a "hack" was discovered that allows you to use freesync connected to an AMD card but rendering through an Nvidia card by setting one card as the renderer for power saving mode in windows.
It was posted on reddit and Linus Tech Tips did a video on it.
So if 2019 LG OLEDs end up supporting 4k120hz input with VRR....
You can typically get 65" OLED for under $3k, or a 55" for under $2k, or even get a 77" for potentially cheaper than a BFGD. You can use your 2080ti in conjunction with an amd freesync card so you still get the best performance possible while having the best possible picture. If it happens we can have our cake and eat it too.
BFGDs are rumored to be extremely expensive, probably $3-5k. A hard price to swallow even for the extremely hard core. The're only available in 65". They're just LCDs. They don't come close to OLED picture quality. They were supposed to come out this year but no release dates have been set yet.
Even if 2019 OLEDs end up not supporting vrr, Samsung's LCDs already are. And other LCD TVs will be soon. BFGDs are going to have to be a lot better than them to warrant the price.
I'm not sure I'll buy a BFGD anymore.
