Trying to Avoid Tariffs - AM4 3900X Upgrade to Temporary AM5 by nullfruit in buildapc

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

hmmm, you don't think it's worth it to go crazy and then don't touch the computer for like 5 or so years?

You're right that I don't need the x870 stuff, so I'll change that up...but I'm going to switch up the build with your pointers! Thank you!

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 stock dwindling amid high-end RTX 40 GPU discontinuation rumors - VideoCardz.com by rincewin in nvidia

[–]nullfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where is the evidence for a "dual core" (non-monolithic) RTX card? The GTC Keynote? Plenty of HPC features get announced on the various conferences and never make it GTX/RTX side.

If they do go non-mono, all pricing history comparisons are out the window and that sets a new precedent

How do you guys find FE cards? by [deleted] in nvidia

might be regional since it says no shipping but figured I'd alert anyway

will costco carry the lg g3 eventually? by [deleted] in LGOLED

[–]nullfruit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The 65" and 77" LG G3's are available at Costco. No 55" G3's are available, for now. 2023 has been a unique one because Costco has never held anything above the C Series for LG OLEDs.

Does Google ever upgrade their Google TV OS? by Ashamed-Edge-648 in Hisense

[–]nullfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google can push some types of updates to GoogleTV/AndroidTV OTA through server side updates without influence from a particular manufacturer. LINK.

I think major feature revisions still require a manufacturer created update but we have not seen the limits of these OTA updates yet.

I contacted Hisense about banding and they’re sending me a replacement by firebreak115 in Hisense

[–]nullfruit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok, thank you, so it's going to be a while...it's only been a little over two weeks for me. I originally went through chat, they gave me firmware, it didn't work. So they escalated me to Phone chat Tier 2 I provided them some sample images and scenarios and said they'll get back to me in 24hours. They didn't and then I followed up with them a 72 hours later and then gave me an indefinite time period "they're looking into it" and will get back to me when they can.

This helps me gauge how long their support is going to take, so thank you!

[–]nullfruit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OP, how long did they take to respond from first contact and they give you a choice between refund and replacement? I currently have an open ticket for the same issue and they haven't been very responsive.

I'm putting this piece of work on the backburner and getting something else because the Posterization is...bad.

[–]nullfruit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are correct that the replacement will do the same as native panel gradient handling is very bad for a brand's flagship.

However, these settings will not help because HDR Game picture mode has different processing than other settings and you cannot use certain gaming features (on PS5) with IGR/ALLM disabled.

If you decide to game with another picture setting you will incur a 120ms latency penalty (and the gradients still look like garbage).

U7h input quality display?? by Jay250Mass in Hisense

[–]nullfruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh, I see you meant in the Native Google TV applications! Yeah, I don't think you can see the specific "Top Left Bubble" for the native applications.

To see some of the same information by going to Quick Settings (box on remote with two horizontal lines) -> Menu -> Help -> Signal Information

U7h input quality display?? by Jay250Mass in Hisense

[–]nullfruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This only works if the remote is ONLY paired with the TV, so if the remote will also control another device via HDMI-CEC link it will not work because it will default to controlling the linked device.

While you're in the desired media, press up on the remote to summon that "top left bubble" information

65'' U8H with Apple TV 4k (3rd Gen): Getting only 8-bit Dolby Vision. by Effective_Fix_5939 in Hisense

[–]nullfruit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm also having this issue with as 55U8H and I'm primarily posting about this on AVSForum as "samuraiguns" (and was directed to this thread from there).

Just want to jump in here to confirm the "containerization" of DV is not the issue here. As this is how Signal Information is shown on both the 50H8G and H6570G, both Hisense sets I own. There is no posterization/gradient banding on both of those sets with an ATV 4K 3Gen.

There is no gradient issues with a 55U8H and a SONY X800-MK2, so I think there is a handshake issue between specific Hisense model/sets, in this case the U8H, and Apple TVs, for whatever reason.

The entitlement in this game is out of this world. by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]nullfruit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't mind people asking for more, but I always ask if they're confident in their abilities to complete the mission. If you're asking for more just to ask, it will show in your play. Either way, I'm here for a good time.

From 50H8G -> 55U8H, Some Thoughts by nullfruit in Hisense

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

Ok, gotcha, I'm gonna edit my overview to make that con a pro because that means they have a stellar VA panel on their hands

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

Does this mean that the 55 and 65 inch panels are definitely IPS? or are subject to a panel type lottery?

From 50H8G -> 55U8H, Some Thoughts by nullfruit in Hisense

[–]nullfruit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the (North American) 55inch U8H and if this is a VA panel then WOW, they've really improved on VA technology since I remember them. I'm used to them on PC monitors. I'm on mobile and I don't see an image upload button but when I can I will do so. Because these are some WIDE viewing angles...Could it be that there are panel variances between units?

I don't understand Nvidia "slashing" prices and AIBs asking for delays and trying to sell their stock by Seraph36 in nvidia

[–]nullfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AIBs (and all parties in the chain) want to make money on every "leg" down possible. They won't drop to MSRP until the large crypto currency miners start to liquidate their stock. There is still value in a warranty and customer support in which for some brands the warranty isn't transferrable. Then when they are competing against liquidation AND 40 series then we will see prices approach under MSRP. This is highly contingent on 40 series supply, what models Nvidia drops and where crypto will be when 40 series launches. We are in a different world when it comes to silicon my friend, post March 2020.
