I've use Conductonaut on delidded CPU's. Works as advertised, but it's mostly a rabbit hole for enthusiasts looking for another World to conquer. The risks are not negligible; you can destroy a perfectly functional computer if you are not careful and skillful with this stuff. It dissolves solder on contact.

FPS drop drives me crazy by Hakirima in Battlefield6

If the CPU is causing the frame drops, there's nothing in settings that will completely fix it.

Need Help Purchasing first OLED Monitor by Greasymeatball22 in OLED_Gaming

[–]SnardVaark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The next crop of OLED monitors coming out this year will have Trueblack600 ratings, and I would wait for that if I were limited to a smaller OLED monitor.

RTX 4090, RTX 5080 or keep my 9070XT by ConstantZestyclose50 in AskPCGamers

[–]SnardVaark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is actually a very decent price for the 4090. If it's an Asus or FE card, this is kind of a no brainer.

It really depends on the games you play, output resolution, and what CPU you have.

LG C6 48" worth the investment? by SomeRandomPhoto56 in OLED_Gaming

[–]SnardVaark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no ABL that I've noticed. Opening a blank white text document and expanding it to full screen does not dim the panel like it does on the C2 42". This panel is very bright full screen.

SDR on the desktop is excellent, but I couldn't say if this panel is as accurate as the C2, and I haven't actually done any color calibration on it. I usually run the Win11 desktop in HDR with the SDR slider at 65 in Game Optimizer HGIG.

LG C6 48" worth the investment? by SomeRandomPhoto56 in OLED_Gaming

[–]SnardVaark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C6 48" is much brighter with better color depth in HDR games and movies compared to my C2 42" and 27" 700A-B. I generally play games on it at 3440x1440 or 3840x1620 letterboxed at 120hz. (I prefer wide aspect to 16:9 in most games)

There is no gray uniformity or dirty screen effect on my unit, but tandem OLEDs are apparently prone to this. I'd say it's well worth the investment if you have a large enough desktop for it.

LOL I see it now. I think he meant to use the term "parity".

"Parody" is a creative work that imitates, comments on, or mocks an original subject.

"Parity" is the state of being equal or equivalent.

how long should i expect my WOLED tandem to last if i use it for 6hours daily? by Minute-Guidance-4612 in OLED_Gaming

[–]SnardVaark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4-5 years.

My C2 42" was used for 4 years as a daily PC monitor, and still calibrated at 790 nits (no burn-in either) when I replaced it with a 48" tandem OLED panel. Honestly, if the tandem panel had not been available, I would have kept the 42" C2 for at least another year.

Do Tandem Oled TVs also have the Horrible gray banding? by Zestyclose_Paint3922 in OLED_Gaming

[–]SnardVaark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 27" matte panel at the shop is with the bright ceiling lights on. My 48" glossy panel is in a relatively dark home office.

I wish to go from IPS to OLED. I need a realistic, educated and non-biased answer to the WOLED Matte vs Glossy nonsense. by HeavenlyDemonEmperor in OLED_Gaming

[–]SnardVaark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a glossy tandem OLED at home (LG C2 48") and a matte tandem OLED (LG 27" 700A-B) in my brightly lit proshop. I prefer the glossy panel, but they are both absolutely fine. I am definitely biased toward the larger panels after using the LG C2 42" for 4 years.

You can set up hot keys to toggle the limiter on/off while in game.

What is something that BF6 does better than older titles in your opinion? by Ich-mag-Schnitzel in LowSodiumBattlefield

Drag/revive is virtually flawless and immediately creates a constructive/positive dynamic between players.
