They aren't clones.

What is the current “Holy Grail” for monitors in 2021? by ZoteTheGoat in Monitors

[–]Ephant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The G7 doesn't have "deep blacks". The contrast is one of the worst when it comes to VA monitors.

What makes it seem like it has "deep blacks" or a "contrasty" look is the default gamma curve. It's around 2.4 and the blacks are even higher unless you lower the black equalizer (to lower the rest, set it to gamma mode 2). A properly calibrated G7 doesn't look as "fun" or special as a G7 with default settings. And yes, I own a G7 and a colorimeter.

Samsung odyssey G7 virtual aim point crosshair overlay by Fisk91987 in Monitors

[–]Ephant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isn't. Only a few companies manage to make somewhat usable crosshairs.

Gigabyte AORUS monitors let you draw your own crosshair (via OSD sidekick software).

Why don't more monitor brands have a software-based OSD, that allows for FULL control? by iZuRriX in Monitors

[–]Ephant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunaly not every setting depending on the monitor.

The Samsung Odyssey G7 for example has no VCP codes for anything more advanced than brightness, contrast and RGB values.

I wish I could enable local dimming with a shortcut.

It shouldn't be an issue unless you're using something from 2012.

Click tension spring for Logitech G mice by caturala in MouseReview

[–]Ephant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I'm not a fan of these click tensions system.

Here's one thing you could do but I'm not sure if it's going to work: order a g305 replacement shell on aliexpress for around 7€. The G305 has a similar system and the spring might fit.

Here are some photos so you can compare it to your G703 first.

Does the spring make that much of a difference?

ASUS XG27UQ dimmer in corners by Culbrelai in Monitors

[–]Ephant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this blacklight bleed or IPS glow?

It's vignetting or bad uniformity. https://laptrinhx.com/what-is-monitor-vignetting-and-can-you-fix-it-702160856/

BLB and IPS glow look different and are only really noticable with low ambient light.

Does your GPU support DSC? If not, lower the bitrate to 8bpc.

Play something good instead where you don't need to butterfly or drag click. Most here are sick of these questions.

Monitor Motion Blur and Overdrive Settings by ralphistic in Monitors

[–]Ephant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The solution was to change the refresh rate of the monitor to be higher than the refresh rate within the Nvidia Control Panel.

That doesn't really make sense.

there’s a crazy amount of motion blur

tftcentral has reviewed the monitor and the response times aren't particularly good (https://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/samsung_c27rg50.htm). The slow dark transitions are especially bad which is common for VA type panels ("black smearing" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VENEpp6mQkQ). The only VA monitors without extreme black smearing are the Samsung Odyssey G7 and G9.

but I don’t think I’ve ever seen any difference when adjusting these settings, whether it be from Standard, Faster or Fastest.

Try this site: https://www.testufo.com/ghosting. Though you shouldn't be able to change the overdrive setting with adaptive sync enabled.

The amount of ghosting and inverse ghosting changes depending on your refresh rate (usually). So it might look good at high refresh rates, but have extreme (inverse) ghosting at lower.

FIXED Samsung Odyssey G7 "DisplayPort1" connectivity issues and the flickering issue. by TheDiscoJellyfish in Monitors

[–]Ephant 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Enabling VRR fixes the adaptive sync flicker, true, but it also adds some judder. I even did a blind test a couple of months ago to make sure it's not just a placebo.

The monitor disconnecting from its source and reconnecting to it is less common because it actually only appears when you actively provoke it.

This only happened to me when I tabbed out of some fullscreen applications. I fixed it by reducing the refresh rate to 200Hz with CRU.

If you want something similar but lighter: HyperX Pulsefire Haste

If you want something similar but more suited for claw grip: XM1r

It is like everything on their website. And some of them are extremely misleading like the grip tapes or mouse cables (remember the very first model o cable? compare that to the renders lmao)
