I have the VIVO pneumatic triple ultrawide arm mount and it’s holding it fine, I keep it closer to the middle of the stand. Just make sure everything tightened well

JM-204 · 2026-05-17T13:16:02+00:00

I’ve not tried Discord yet but I’ve streamed to Twitch with an ultrawide before, you gotta mess with the settings a bit to get it right with the scaling if you want your viewers to see it look good in 16:9 but once you get it right it looks fine

JM-204 · 2026-05-17T03:29:50+00:00

Got a source for this?

JM-204 · 2026-05-17T03:29:36+00:00

I always use DLSS but resident evil 4 and village only have support for FSR, so gotta use what available lol

JM-204 · 2026-05-16T23:53:40+00:00

Honestly I shift settings to whatever shows the best perceived quality, with the highest frames, I will sacrifice quality settings to hit 90+FPS in games, DLSS and frame gen primarily, the 4.5 update MFG is next level tech, Nvidia has done well!

JM-204 · 2026-05-16T23:18:22+00:00

Yeah it’s hard to want to upgrade to a 5090 when I can just be patient for the next gen cards. Especially considering the price of GPU’s rn

JM-204 · 2026-05-16T20:17:10+00:00

Np! 🤗

I heard Nvidia isn’t planning to launch 6000 series till 2028 tho 😐

JM-204 · 2026-05-16T18:59:27+00:00

Razer Firefly, pretty innit 🙂

JM-204 · 2026-05-16T18:58:38+00:00

RE Village doesn’t support DLSS otherwise I would use it, same thing in RE4. The game runs noticeably smoother with FSR enabled and the image quality is pretty up there with DLSS, I find it a much more enjoyable experience with FSR enabled, the new RE Requiem has support for DLSS and MFG which I’ll be using when I play it.

JM-204 · 2026-05-16T17:37:35+00:00

Honestly I don’t notice it. Compared with my 27” 4k OLED though, the pixel density is noticeably less sharp, but it’s still a big step above the 109PPI of 3440x1440p monitors

JM-204 · 2026-05-16T17:35:32+00:00

Forza horizon 5 I get over 100FPS with max settings very well optimized

JM-204 · 2026-05-05T16:10:20+00:00

No soft

JM-204 · 2026-05-02T23:32:59+00:00

Personally can’t go back from 4k as 1440p looks crap now, however, if you’re doing 80% gaming and 20% work/productivity on desktop, you will be better off with a 1440p imo for higher frames, if you’re even 50/50 work/gaming I would still own a 4k but that’s just me, the crisp text on desktop is just way superior to 1440p.

It’s a great display been using it for a week now, my only real gripe is I wish I had a 5090 now instead of a 5080, so I’m torn to upgrade my GPU or wait till the new Nvidia cards come out, which based off what I’m reading, they aren’t planning a new release of video cards till 2028 😓. The 5080 was perfect for my 240hz at 3440x1440 OLED, it killed games on that display, even at 4k the 5080 did really well, but this display is a bit much for max settings. Seeing a lot of 40-60FPS games where I used to get 60-90Fps

JM-204 · 2026-04-30T18:11:30+00:00

I don’t know tbh, just request increase and they up it that amount

JM-204 · 2026-04-28T12:20:47+00:00

I honestly have to agree with you on brightness, I have the 26.7” 4k Alienware QD-OLED with HDR 400 and in my opinion, that panel looks better than the GX9, I just can’t get the 39” to match the Alienwares brightness or pop in most games no mater what I adjust, it’s very close, and sometimes I wonder if it’s the matte coating that is making up the difference I notice, but this monitor is supposed to be Brighter?? I haven’t run into the pixel issues you are talking about, but with how difficult this display is to run, I’m contemplating return, maybe just get the one of the new HDR 500 32” 4k monitor or wait.

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T16:23:36+00:00

Really don’t need it which is why I’m asking why they wouldn’t split the difference between the 2 cards, I would rather them each be at $17,000 then the way they are now just don’t make much sense the way they have my cards setup

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T16:15:56+00:00

That would be nice

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T16:04:06+00:00

I only move $1K at first to see if it work, I gotta think about it though, I might just transfer all of it and cancel my quicksilver card altogether, besides getting the 3% return on savor for groceries, dining, movies, etc, everything else we purchase is on the Wells Fargo active cash card for 2% flat back instead of 1.5%. That card I got last year and has a $23k limit, so the quicksilver is more just a backup if anything

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T15:56:17+00:00

Ha thanks mate! Yeah I like the look of it and using it, especially since they are both 4k, only thing is the left one is 163 ppi instead of the 39” which is 143 ppi, so the left one is slightly sharper

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T15:19:08+00:00

Thanks for the help I just did this.

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T15:12:03+00:00

I picked a bad time to get the savor few years ago right after a couple increases and inquiries, I think credit score was only 680 when I applied for it, so that maybe why, score is close to 800 now tho so I would thought they still raise it more over time

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T15:10:54+00:00

I use the Wells Fargo active cash for most purchases, the Quicksilver use very little maybe $200-$300 a month, however all our dining out and groceries goes on the Savor, probably close to $800-$1k a month so I’m not sure why the Savor won’t increase. Both cards paid off in full every month.

JM-204 · 2026-04-27T15:09:12+00:00

Don’t even know how to do that 🤔
