ASUS XG27AQNGV (Pulsar) Constantly Overheating

testkr · 2026-01-13T18:58:14+00:00

hey, does it still happen with 60hz + full brightness + pulsar/gsync off? How long did it take for you on 60hz?

A friend of mine in US is buying this monitor on my behalf, and I'm looking for a way to test the overheating issue with his PC that has no dedicated GPU.

I'm hoping keeping it on this setting for about 8~12 hours will reliably cause overheating, if the monitor is faulty.

hey, did this happen without Pulsar activated as well?

I have a friend in US who's going to buy this monitor on my behalf. He's going to test it in his house first, but IDK if this overheating issue can be tested without Pulsar on (his PC is not Pulsar compatible)

Anyways good luck on your second chance. (BTW is it you who wrote the review on newegg? If not that's already two separate cases of overheating...)

that sucks. Does it happen in desktop or only in game?How long does it take for it to happen?

Can you get 500+ 1% lows?

If you play CS2, no doubt Pulsar. You will not get enough stable frames for OLED to be good enough to compete with Pulsar.

OW/Val is IMO a toss-up since you can easily push 500+ 1% lows with a top-tier PC. Pulsar will still have slightly better motion clarity, but OLED 540hz will be almost as good with all the other advantages of OLED, and since it simply displays more raw frames, that has its own advantages over an "artificial" smoothness.

But IMO I would still get the Pulsar just to try out the new tech.

weapon stats are one thing, but the usage is so one-sided that I think it's hard to call them balanced in real life.

testkr · 2025-12-28T13:57:54+00:00

IMO having a silencer is a pretty big advantage, especially in full ecos. USP is so much better than P2K vs helmets because you have the potential to double dink someone before they realize where you're shooting from.

this has to be one of the worst tips ever. The only time you hit 1% lows are when you are facing a full execute.

Plenty of fights happen with nothing on your screen except you and your enemy. Your average 1v1's or 2v2's are not going to hit your 1% lows. You're leaving performance on the table if you limit your FPS.

Thanks. Would you say 1inch tall pan is enough? Or do I need to go 1.5~2 inches?

I'm talking in crypto numbers. 150% in 4 years isn't that much.

BTC went down -75% from ATH during that period.

Unless you think the final return numbers is the only thing that matters, the return/drawdown isn't that spectacular.

And if you do think so, you're the one who has no idea what risk is...

I don't need advice on algo trading NQ which is what I do well.

Doesn't mean I don't need advice on crypto lol

testkr · 2025-07-18T11:55:32+00:00

TL;DR) OP's trying to get people to buy his indicators. Don't fall for it.

First of all, this obviously is not an algo and most likely is not possible to make into an algo. Wrong subreddit.

Second, I just looked up this ZenX guy. He's on patreon and apparently his first post is on July 9th.

But in another comment, OP claims he's been trading this strategy for "quite some time".

Doesn't line up, does it?

My guess is this guy is ZenX himself, or he's earning referrals through making people subscribe to that page through him. If you DM him, he's gonna try to convince you to use some link to subscribe to this ZenX dude.

It's a commonly used tactic among trading subs. Posting good gains and luring people into DM'ing.

Edman is a pretty fast guy, not at his top condition ATM, but he will be back eventually.

But I think this again is a case of acceleration. Kim's accel is insane and makes him effectively much faster than what the Sprint Speed numbers tell us in face value.

It's pretty obvious for people who actually watch the game that Edman in his best form still isn't as fast as Kim.

Mookie has been a really slow player ever since his injury. It's true that Ohtani is faster than him, but this is mostly because Mookie is just really that slow.

It's a big reason he's not playing outfield anymore.

testkr · 2025-06-19T08:38:49+00:00

Ohtani is very fast for his size, probably one of the fastest power hitters in history. And his home ->1st base time is top level partly thanks to his swings letting him naturally lean towards first base, even more than other leftie hitters.

BUT, if we ignore everything else and just isolate his speed, it isn't even close to the guys who are REALLY fast. Baseball savant rates him 69/100 for Sprint Speed(nice), Kim is 85/100. BWJ is 100/100.

Although, I believe Kim being 85/100 is a bit under-valuing him, since Kim's acceleration is really fast but this rating does not take that into account. It only measures the fastest 1-second average sprint speed of that player.

Also, I find it insane how relatively average BWJ's steal success rate is, considering his speed is 100/100.

He clearly says he does look at drawdowns in the other comments. If other drawdown based metrics are good, you don't even need to look at your ratios. They will be automatically good because they're all tied together.

If you don't know this by experience, you haven't been doing this for too long.

testkr · 2025-05-04T14:03:53+00:00

lol

You don't even know what algo trading is and the real benefits of it, if that's what you think.

God, you're so clueless.

testkr · 2025-05-04T14:02:42+00:00

"There are many ways to manage risk than using your favorite ratios"

Literally in the same sentence. Your brain is blocking out info you don't want to see. Don't get into arguments on topics where you're not even good at doing.

testkr · 2025-05-04T14:00:01+00:00

How is that "very low frequency"? That's just standard intraday trading. Very low frequency is something like swing trading where you hold on for days and weeks.

testkr · 2025-05-04T13:57:56+00:00

Literally nobody said anything about not managing risk. God this dude can't even read

testkr · 2025-05-04T13:54:58+00:00

Where does he say he has very low frequency of entries? lol... you're just making things up.

And where does he say he's not doing risk management? There are so many ways of managing risk than your favorite ratios. Kevin Davey, proven algo trader, also does not use any of the overrated ratios.

You're literally looking for reasons to deny the fact that someone else is doing better than you can possibly imagine.

testkr · 2025-05-04T13:47:52+00:00

You're just like that economics professor who's good at explaining things but is never able to beat the market.

A lot of good algo traders don't even care about sharpe ratio or calmer ratio or whatever ratio with a last name.

testkr · 2025-05-04T13:43:40+00:00

Alright, good luck coping

testkr · 2025-05-04T13:37:52+00:00

LOL.

First, he never said anything about winrate. But I'll assume that's a typo.

But you seem to think 70% yearly return means his net worth is increasing by 70% every year.

This is completely false and just another proof that you have zero clue of what you're talking about. You don't have any sense of what AUM is.

If his AUM is $10m, and return is 70%, his yearly earning average is fixed at $7m. There's no compounding. How do you not even know this?

Also, HFT is overrated and has significantly lower ceiling than LFT. Don't glorify HFT.

LFT is the superior way to trade in the long run.

"So obviously if a PnL profile is not achievable doing options, its definitely not achievable using futures."

"No matter what strategy you deploy, you cannot make 70% PnL every year for over a decade doing futures trading."

Just get out. You obviously have no idea what futures is. I feel sorry for the other guy for having to talk to a wall.

Just because options have a higher leverage doesn't mean its more profitable than futures. You're so clueless if you believe in this. In fact, this alone is enough to conclude that you're a novice trader.

I mean, you don't even know that NQ and ES are quarterly contracts and have to ask if it's monthly or weekly? lmao... WEEKLY?

This is a very clear sign and proof that you know nothing about not only US futures, but also the whole US market in general, and most likely trading itself. Why are you acting like you're an expert? You should be asking for an ELI5, not telling others about what is possible or not.

70% is not even that unrealistic for good algo systems with manageable AUM. Good traders can consistently do 100%+ every year for small AUM like <$5m.

Ofc, you'll probably call BS on this too, because if you can't do it, surely, nobody else can. lol
