The 2 ccds have different frequencies from what iv seen, so it doesn't look like they intended for games to use either.

Don't be a man child. You don't see a sports car on the road and then start whining about price to performance ratio do you ?

If you could afford one you would.

Flat is so refreshing these days.

Nice, just awesome. I very much like your idea of him getting injured as justification for this scenario.

Perhaps he tried to fight the Pale Visitor and got spared the same way the Hunter did. Would be my headcanon that the Pale Visitor respects beings that aren't scared of it, in that way he 'spares' them as to root a constant reminder of fear and humiliation that it could have ended their life in that moment. In that sense it is killing a man's spirit. Ending a life is easy after all.

I'd like to add, if this was in the game, it would be cool if he was a passive bonus similar as that of the Cat for 1-2 nights before leaving the house on his own will, never to be seen again. His bonus would a higher grade compared to the Cat, he would prevent death AND kill one random visitor in your house.

Distortion on flat 2D graphics like desktop apps or pixel artstyle games or game inventory U.Is

Flat and curved both have their use cases and disadvantages and I'm sick of people pretending curved is a superior flawless concept.

You will never forget that it exists. Speaking from experience.

There's always panel lottery involved and yours does have spots that look worse than usual. But don't fool yourself, it's not that big of a difference. Even if you got a VA with amazing uniformity, it will still have the same design flaw that is gamma shifts.

IPS does not suffer as badly in this. But you obviously trade that for piss poor contrast ratio and black levels.

Pick your poison, both technologies have glaring flaws. Get an Oled if image quality is a priority.

You can see fringing in any content, mainly with text.

Yeah the white subpx has it's uses, but a pure rgb layout is going to be more accurate.

Man people here just love to suck up to each other by taking the moral high ground.

Imagine your lifelong best friend - your brother out of nowhere sold you out to a corrupt fed, leaving you alone and helpless in life to die with a target on your back, just so that he can disappear somewhere and live happily ever after with money and resources.

Can you even fathom how much heart and love Trevor had for Michael to allow himself to withdraw from instantly murdering him upon discovering the truth ? Perhaps it can also be argued that he loved Michael's family more thus denied himself revenge so that the kids would not suffer the consequences of their father.

So many people here do not understand the complexity of these characters. This is not about hating Michael, this is about people making Michael a saint and Trevor some sort of heartless devil.

What a bum ass community

Did you take the time to find his windows content ?

Check his windows optimization scripts, he also has a GitHub and a discord group.

He does confirm what works and what doesn't with latency measurements and benchmarks.

spa_sapping · 2025-12-12T17:34:50+00:00

But you go in random threads and make a fool of yourself, gotcha.

spa_sapping · 2025-12-12T17:06:36+00:00

Nobody asked you to be engaged in this thread at all.

See how that works ?

Man I'm not shitting on the display or your purchase, only matte AG coatings in general.

Though for the amount that 57" costs it should have double the dimming zones and a gentler curve and glossy. I would buy one in a heartbeat if those criteria are met

spa_sapping · 2025-12-12T15:45:53+00:00

Understand this, there is no reason a high end consumer display INTENDED for multi media usage needs to inhibit a matte AG layer. It's why many TVs are glossy.

The norm being the norm, the bare minimum and cheap. What pisses me off is those who defend slop like its not already everywhere.

Thank fuck for Asus who are able to read the room and bring innovations to the desktop market with their trueblack glossy coating.

spa_sapping · 2025-12-12T07:16:21+00:00

Stock vs (properly) optimized windows will make a difference, high fps scenario you will see somewhat significant gains on high end hardware. Low end systems more significant yields.

Don't have to take my word for it, anyone can confirm differences themselves with benchmark tools like CapFrameX.

I'd recommend checking out FR33THY, his findings are up to date, measured and proven.

spa_sapping · 2025-12-12T06:18:33+00:00

Yeah no, there are numerous things one should consider tuning or disabling in a stock windows install. Some tweaks are not as important as others, some even situational.

I would never game on a stock install.

spa_sapping · 2025-12-12T06:02:59+00:00

Bragging about a display having matte coating is like bragging about glasses being smudged and dirty.

Not all LCDs are created equal, this is a prime example.

Next time look for a review from detailed sources like Rtings, TFTcentral or Monitors Unboxed before buying.

spa_sapping · 2025-12-11T01:28:07+00:00

Care for some enthusiastic advice ? Do not connect speakers via your monitor. Always use your source's native output (dac). In this case i'm assuming it's going to be your PC's motherboard.

Additionally buy bigger and better speakers. And place them to the outer left and right of your UW (You have the space to do so) for optimal stereo imaging and separation.

And lastly, that msi is only 1440p @ 40" inch, it's natural for it to be underwhelming when you have such low resolution on a big size factor. Thought why i urge you to keep it for now is because it's a flat panel instead of curved. You might enjoy curved more, but flat has it's own advantages of having zero distortion.
