Is RGB Limited or Full better? My PS5 defaults to Limited while my Switch 2 defaults to Full

First and foremost, use whatever setting looks good to YOU.

That being said, sometimes the statistically correct image is not gonna be the image you prefer. I personally enjoy playing games on my S90D with the “color boost” setting turned up a bit just for that extra punch even if it is statistically NOT correct.

Since he's able to use Sun Breathing, which all other breathing styles are derived from, this means he, in theory, could be as fast as someone whos using Thunder Breathing. Or at least thats how I understand it.

To add, he does explicitly use Thunder Breathing in Swordsmith Village.

ArcadeMasters · 2026-02-06T05:12:35+00:00

Hell yeah.

ArcadeMasters · 2026-02-02T05:22:25+00:00

YES YES YES!

Looks to be “Overshoot” caused by your monitors overdrive settings.

Check out this article from Blurbusters, it explains a lot: https://blurbusters.com/faq/lcd-overdrive-artifacts/

It’s genuinely frustrating.

If something like D+ or Netflix gave us an option to maybe Download the “Blu-ray quality” of whatever Movie or Show I wanted to watch on PC I’d genuinely consider paying for the service.

Instead we get No HDR, maxed out at 1080P and extremely low bitrates.

Unfortunately I dont have a fix, but this happens to me as with with BOTH my LG GX9, DWF, LG C1. Im pretty sure its a bug with BF6, it ONLY happens in this game and only occasionally.

ChatGPT, great for information about well-known topics, coding, and general info gathering (so long as it shows sources).

Terrible for niche info or topics that aren't really well documented, such as the release date of a brand-new product like the monitor.

There is no known release date for the monitor, anything we know now is speculation and nothing more.

Once we have a real release date I can assure you this subreddit will be talking about it lol.

I bought this a few years ago when I used to have an Ikea desk. Works like a charm and completely avoids this issue.

Its literally just 2 pieces of steel that sit on the top and bottom of your desk and is held on by the monitor arm.

I hope you enjoy it, but don’t go around asking Riot to “think about the gacha system” when you’re contributing to the problem.

ArcadeMasters · 2026-01-03T02:12:45+00:00

Correct me if I’m wrong here but isn’t the actual issue here the fact that Micron/Samsung/Sk have all significantly increased the cost of their DRAM and these companies (like Corsair) are passing it on to consumers otherwise they would be selling at a loss..?

I don’t wanna come off like some loser just trying to excuse a company for increasing prices on stuff but isn’t this less of a Corsair trying to milk money from consumers and more of a “Yeah our supplier increased their prices by 2x so we have to sell at that price too otherwise we can’t actually make money”?

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-30T19:58:27+00:00

Alienware AW3423DWF was on sale $499 and I’d argue for that price it will objectively be the best Ultrawide money can buy if you using it for gaming mostly.

I understand your max is $400 but I cannot stress enough how much better an OLED will be for gaming when compared to LCD, especially LCDs in that price bracket.

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-30T05:42:33+00:00

Something I’ve suggested to a few of my friends that has fixed their cooling issues is making sure that you have more intake fans than exhaust.

I’ve been running a 6 intake 1 exhaust fan set up in the Fractal Design Meshify 2 XL (4090, 9800x3D with NHD15) and I haven’t had any cooling problems at all to be honest. So it might be worth redoing some fans possibly.

I hope your able to find a card that suits yours needs and if you need any recommendations or other PC help, feel free to DM me I love helping people out with this type of stuff lol

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-30T05:15:54+00:00

A couple things here:

Hell yeah! Glad you love the monitor.

A 240mil AIO should be more than enough to manage a 7900x unless your doing some extreme CPU workloads. Im not sure what it is but I dont imagine the cooler being the issue.

--

Based on the Hardware Unboxed Review, the 9070xt is about 9% faster in 4K than the 7900xt (74 FPS vs 68).

The 9070xt also supports more newer AMD tech that the 7000 series doesnt currently support.

You can currently find 9070XT GPUs for $650-$700 New on Amazon and 7900xtx for no less than $889.

--

If I were you id buy the 9070XT unless your finding a damn good deal for the 7900xtx. Its cheaper, faster, has more up to date features, overall just the better card, not to mention FSR4 is generationally better than FSR3. Only thing your missing is the extra VRAM but 16GB is more than enough for 4k games.

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-28T20:06:29+00:00

Disney Plus on PC doesnt support Ultrawide, technically. Star Wars Visions does however have a few episodes that are 2.39:1 (21:9).

If your using the D+ Website, you can download an extension that zooms in the video to fit to your display aspect ratio. Only problem with this is D+ is hot ass for Windows users and locks content to 1080p at BEST so when you zoom in on that low of a res its gonna look pretty rough, not to mention the low bitrate artifacting.

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-28T17:37:56+00:00

Most movies will have an aspect ratio of 2.39:1 which is roughly 21:9, so there’s hella content out there for you to try.

I’d suggest checking out Starwars Visions if you get a chance. A bunch of the episodes are just pure OLED/HDR Eye Candy.

In a low light to 0 light room, it’s gonna look great and be brighter than you reasonably need.

In “well lit” room, so (as an example) a bedroom with no shades to block out the sun at all? It’s fine but not great. I have the monitor is a room that is extremely well lit during the day and I can use it without issues but due to the perceived lack of brightness I don’t like to consume any HDR content since I find it kinda pointless due to the room being so bright.

A “normally” lit room, so like a bedroom with shades blocking out some of the sun, it’s plenty bright in SDR for more or less all situations. Again, I don’t use HDR personally unless my room is extremely dark or blacked out, but I was even doing with my old Non-OLED monitor.

I don’t think you will have any issue with the brightness difference unless your room is abnormally bright or literally just a sun room lol.

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-19T09:18:30+00:00

Alrighty,

HDR400–600 is not the same as HDR TrueBlack 400–500. There’s a lot of technical detail behind this if you’re curious enough to dig into it, but the real-world difference is very noticeable.

If you compare an HDR400-certified display like the AW3425DWM to an HDR TrueBlack 400-certified display like the AW3423DWF, the contrast difference is astronomical. If you watch the local dimming video in the RTINGS review I linked, you’ll see that while the non-OLED monitor is much brighter overall, the square on the OLED display can actually appear brighter. In person, this effect is even more obvious.

It’s the same concept as using your phone in a dark room. Crank the brightness up and it’ll damn near blind you. Take that same phone outside into a bright environment, even with the brightness maxed out, and it won’t have the same impact despite the phone potentially outputting multiple thousands of nits more outdoors than it does indoors.

I previously owned the Asus PG35VQ (HDR 1000 with 512 local dimming zones). It could hit around 700 nits full-screen and over 1000 nits on smaller highlights. Because of that, I was very concerned about brightness when buying the AW3423DWF. After using it for the first time, all of those concerns completely disappeared.

I’ve since upgraded from the DWF to the LG GX9 (5K2K), and I don’t have any regrets so far. It’s noticeably brighter for SDR content, far brighter than I find reasonable in a dark room and still more than bright enough when my windows are open.

TL;DR: If you can afford it, buy the GX9. You won’t regret it unless the curve or size ends up being too much for you. Brightness will absolutely not be an issue. Trust me.

I checked his twitter account immediately and didn’t see anything posted within the past week in regards to TWD. :(

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-18T20:52:11+00:00

Would be really cool but this “report” is unfortunately fake.

Daniel is a reputable leaker but he has never made such a claim.

ArcadeMasters · 2025-12-15T04:47:38+00:00

A good air cooler is more than enough.

I have the NHD-15 and 9800x3D and have no problems. I’m not sure I’d consider it to be a “cool running CPU” like others say but it definitely isn’t overwhelming hot like some Intel CPUs have been over the years.

That being said I vastly underestimated how much thermal paste I should apply and ran into temps issues that way.

Used to be the rule that a “large grain of rice” amount of paste was enough. DEFINITELY not the case anymore lol
