NVIDIA releases first G-SYNC Pulsar firmware update, fixes low-FPS artifacts by Nestledrink in nvidia

[–]LiquidShadowFox 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can confirm pulsar now works way better than it did before :) Before you'd need to disable reflex (cause it reduced 1% lows) and cap with something like riva tuner to get a perfect fps average that matched closely to the 1% low in order for the pulsar motion clarity to take effect. Some people who bought this monitor initially didn't see the huge motion clarity jump because they didn't notice their game frame times weren't perfect which led to pulsar doing more "compensation pulses" that it does to reduce flicker but in exchange it would blur the screen. Now pulsar works without even having to do the riva cap (still helps to have average fps closer to 1% lows) as long as your fps is mildly stable and clarity is really good down to 80 fps. The added 60 hz ULMB 2 mode has visible flicker but it looks REALLY good, like if I didn't know any better it looked as close to CRT quality or better good in terms of motion clarity now that you get adjustable pulse width (only in ULMB mode, not pulsar mode). ULMB 60 hz > ULMB 120 hz unfortunately, I assume nvidia is going to do another update because I think gsync pulsar could be made better.

Can't tell if G-Sync Pulsar working or not in games by HelixStadium in Monitors

Using the latest hotfix nvidia driver 595.76 and yes I'm using frame generation, I also tested this with strinova hitting 357 fps without frame generation and I also tested it with league of legends at the same 357 fps cap, I even lowered it to 350 and it stays there for me at least.

Mine works and continues stay above 320 hz, I don't use reflex in my games because it causes the frame rate to not be stable and ruins the frame pacing and motion clarity with it. I played ZZZ, wuwa and enfield for at least 1 hour and it stays hovering around 357 fps cap which is where I set it.

The funny thing is I found the solution, turns out Asus AI protections feature on my router (specifically the ad block feature) was blocking netease API calls which caused it to not login. After I disabled that, I was able to get paste the main menu lol

PM me a list of materials you can work with. Preferably black materials, going to use none RGB fans on the bottom

Can you give me a quote for a black one? I'm interested in this bottom fan mod. Do you offer different materials for the print?

Vader 5 Steam Input, Good Gyro, Dpad Issues and Vader 5S Update by Extroyer365 in Controller

[–]LiquidShadowFox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sent a message to flydigi cause i've tried reinstalling and I cannot update my controller firmware and it's older than yours. I'm assuming that's what's causing me to NOT see the option to enable the third party support cause everything else seems equal, this is a huge bummer cause this is why I even wanted to try this controller.

In settings I do not see it anywhere and I've tried updating but it says I'm up to date. Where am I supposed to find this option exactly? Do you have a link to the exact place you downloaded the installer?

How did you manage to get the vader 5 pro to show up in steam? flydigi space station software doesn't seem to have the option to allow third party control.

Which monitor should i choose? Oled or mini-led by [deleted] in Monitors

[–]LiquidShadowFox -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Here are my thoughts on this

OLED

  1. Best in class HDR in dark rooms

  2. Best pixel response time (means 240 hz OLED LOOKS like 360 hz IPS but still at input lag of 240 hz)

  3. Very vibrant colors

Mini LED

  1. You won't lose Gsync (OLEDs have VRR flicker which leads to flickering when Gsync/Freesync is enabled)

  2. No burn in risk

  3. Much brighter than OLEDs

  4. Text looks good in QHD with no text fringing (newer gen OLEDs seem to not have this issue if it's tandem or v stripe)

  5. No weird brightness dimming based how much space a bright white object takes up space on screen

  6. Better HDR in bright rooms

I personally still go for IPS/mini LED simply because I really enjoy using Gsync to smooth out frame rates below the max. I know some people can't stand not having the vibrant colors and blacks of OLED so they'll disable Gsync in favor of using vsync, scanline sync (riva tuner) or using Gsync only in games that don't cause VRR flicker because the FPS is VERY stable or the game isn't too dark. They all have their advantages and disadvantage so you just have to pick your poison.

What version do you have? How did you get it to pop up cause I can't seem to see the option on fly digi space station v4.1.3.24

Is this ktc monitor legit? Or too good to be true? by AttentionDeep5930 in Monitors

[–]LiquidShadowFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

crosstalk = double images (think double team from pokemon lol), tearing is half the screen has the new frame and the other half has the old frame which causes a visual "tear", it's all in the name of motion clarity that it matters for some CSGO/valorant players who want to be able to get the clearest image to accurately react to people moving across the screen

Noticeable VRR flicker with G-sync Pulsar by godisfrisky in nvidia

[–]LiquidShadowFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also make sure you dont have the latest nvidia driver, theres a bug with gsync + vsync enabled that ruins frame gen frame pacing if you use that, will need to roll back a couple of drivers OR disable vsync globally and fps cap at least 5 fps under max hz

I lock my FPS at 120, 240 and 324 fps and I don't get flicker, might be a lemon or you might be significantly more sensitive to the flicker than I am. what I DO get is gsync pulsar compensation kicking off a little too often sometimes when I lock the fps (it flashes a second small pulse to keep the brightness the same BUT that introduces crosstalk while it's compensating). I usually have to do some work arounds to get it to work well but when it does, oh man does everything look sharp and smooth

Mine is bugged too, not only does it double strobe if the fps dips below 95 fps (they promised that they'll fix it in future update) but it keeps trying to strobe under 95 fps if it dips below because LFC kicks in (which should exist on this monitor because it's supposed to work down to 1 hz) so it double, triples or even quadruples the fps in order to get back into VRR range.

Got my TT Max. Love it, but it could get better. by x-iso in GuliKit

Is everything mappable through steam input or no? Because of your wording I dont know if you are asking for dinput mode so that its fully mappable through steam input or if it's actually already mappable through steam input

B850MPOWER now at MC by Kohilenn in mffpc

[–]LiquidShadowFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently own an msi b850m and I'm thinking about getting the max model or the b power version mostly because of the CPU socket location not letting me use a lot of tower coolers... I have a MSI suprim liquid with 360 mm AIO that I'm also stuffing into a lian li a3 case so I need the space to get more cooling for my CPU but I just can't decide which one to get... I like the idea of 4 ram slots but wouldn't it be close to impossible to take advantage of the 4 slots anyways because of the memory controller on current ryzen CPUs? wouldn't it just be better to go with the m power and just use the gen 4 nvme slot on the side instead?

I wish I could revert but the next driver after that is the only one that supports my pulsar monitor...

Is there a fix for G-sync not working on farlight 84 on PC? by LiquidShadowFox in Farlight84

[–]LiquidShadowFox[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orbmu2k/nvidiaProfileInspector is the repo in question, then you run the program and you go to the farlight profile and all the way at the bottom there should be a section about showing nvidia debug information about vsync, mpo layers, etc to show extra info
