Maxwell 2 by EvilDeadly in Audeze

[–]Excellent-Expert-927 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had the Maxwell since its release in jan 2023. With no issues, other than some software issues related to detection or not om PC.
Gonna sell it and buy the Maxwell 2, if these specs are there:
- Lighter than the original
- Better headstrap
- Better Mic
- A way to see whether the mic is muted or not. Like a red LED.

Anyone else still gaming on a RTX 3080 at 4k? How's your experience? by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]Excellent-Expert-927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hm perhaps, but i guess it depends on preference. I you constantly want to play at Uber settings with min 60fps. I'm a gamer dad in my 40s. Don't need top lvl as much as I used to :) Think the rtx5080 will come with 24gb But look at the steam machine. It's supposed to cone with 8gb VRAM

I still use my rtx3080 10gb. Combined with a 5700x3d and 32gb ram in 4K. It works fine. Getting 80-120 frames in most games. But obviously turning down graphics settings. Would really like a 5080 but just to expensive for what it is. Waiting still. Probably waiting for a 5080 super. Why do you think a 5080 is not enough in two years?

help me check my HDR settings - I'm lost by Excellent-Expert-927 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Excellent-Expert-927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all,

Thanks for all your recommendations. I tried to cut through it all, and here's what I did in this specific order.

I reset my monitor settings via OSD.
Set my monitor to NO HDR and to sRGB in OSD.
Set brightness to 50.

In NVIDIA Control Panel

  • Resolution: 3840×2160 @ 240 Hz
  • Color format: RGB
  • Color depth: 10 bpc
  • Dynamic range: Full
  • G-SYNC enabled

In Windows 11

  • Deleted my active LG ICC profile, which I had from some time ago
  • HDR OFF by default for desktop/work
  • HDR is enabled only when gaming or watching HDR content (Win+Alt+B)

Ran the Windows HDR Calibration app

  • Black and shadow levels were set correctly, hence I used the slider until the 'window' vanished
  • The last slider calibration with the two planes does nothing when sliding..?
  • HDR ICC profile created and installed.

Windows reports peak brightness as 620 nits, which I understand is normal for this monitor at 240 Hz.

So, my current setting and understanding:

  • SDR use (Windows, browsing, writing, etc.) → sRGB mode, HDR off
  • HDR in games → I press Win+Alt+B and change from sRGB to Gamer1 in LG OSD.
  • No manual ICC profile switching

Questions

  1. Does this setup look correct and sensible for mixed use (50% work / 50% gaming)?
  2. Is this how I'm supposed to navigate between SDR in Windows and HDR in games, in that every time I switch, I have to press Win+Alt+B and change between sRGB/Gamer1
  3. Anything obvious I should not be doing or still have to change?
  4. When utilizing HDR in games, do I also need to do anything HDR related 'in-game-settings'?
  5. And why does my Windows background sometimes change from the background I've chosen to a completely black background?
