    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    Again, please elaborate what "facts" you are talking about. Or are you talking about the "conclusion" -definition? Conclusion is not a fact, in itself. Unless we are talking about conclusion in mathematical sense, like algebra, etc., of course. For example, if A > B, and B > C, then yes, we can...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    Still trying to evade every single question and request for clarification, I see... If you think those "word salad" sentences somehow work as a defense, then I can tell you now that you're wrong. On the contrary, it always tells me that I've hit the bulls-eye, and you have nothing more to add...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    Here are my answers from previous messages: "Now, this would otherwise be a sound argument, except FreeSync can be found in high-end, mid-end AND low-end. More choice is a good thing. Surely we're not giving G-Sync extra credit for LIMITED selection?" "Yes, they want it to be implemented on...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    As far as I can tell, so far you've only presented the "nVidia sells more GPUs" -mantra. I'm at least presenting you logical causations, and even provide links that explain them and how they've come to be. You've done no such thing. Please elaborate, at which point does my logic falter? And...

    Shrinking monitor size? Going from IPS/VA to TN?

    Even if you managed to find a program that re-sizes the window to the right size, you would still be looking at a "wrong resolution". Looking at a 1920x1080 image/video scaled to a 1500x800 window would make the image a blurry mess. You would be able to see the relative proportions of how the...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    Mr. "nVidia sells more GPUs" doesn't have much credibility to say that, I'm afraid... I didn't say it costs $100 more to PRODUCE. I gave an example pair of otherwise identical monitors, where the G-Sync counterpart costs £270 more, for the end-user. Also, did you even look at the links I gave...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    I can't post the address of the aggregate site where I got the numbers for the FreeSync vs. G-Sync model variants, but I can post a screenshot, if you want. Are you disputing the 6:1 ratio? I also gave the Acer XZ321Q vs. Acer Z321Q links for price difference comparison. Unsurprisingly, the...

    Shrinking monitor size? Going from IPS/VA to TN?

    Are you talking about actually running a program in a window of specific size, or comparing the size? If latter, then try www.displaywars.com Set your current size (and optionally aspect ratio) to one field, and the target resolution/aspect ratio combo to another. Select Compare. Then...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    @andybird123, in general: I see you're still trying to drive through the "nVidia sells more GPUs" -- WHICH I ALREADY AGREED TO. Everybody agrees to it. Is that the only straw you have, or why are you glutching into it like your life depended on it? Well, because you're recycling your messages...

    165 Hz 2560x1440 Curved 27" G-Sync TN - Asus PG27VQ

    I'm totally against TN monitors, but one thing that should be noted in this one's favour: From what I can tell, this is the FIRST EVER curved TN monitor. I always wondered why TN panels never went curved. I kind of assumed that the technology itself must have some sort of technical...

    3D tv or monitor?

    1) HDTVs will have higher input lag, especially in 3D mode. So 3D gaming is of very limited enjoyment. But movies should be fine. 2) On PC side, 3D has pretty much died, and TV side will probably soon follow (https://www.cnet.com/news/shambling-corpse-of-3d-tv-finally-falls-down-dead/). VR is...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    If you spin it deep enough, then only a mention of G-Sync in the drivers could be interpreted to mean that G-Sync is still technically "alive", and hasn't thus "lost". In 5 years' time, I'm expecting that G-Sync has either A) evolved into something more multipurpose than what it is now or B)...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    Nope, I don't think I'm missing the point. And not actually even disagreeing with the above sentence. But like EsaT so eloquently noted earlier, and the point I tried to drive through, but which you apparently ignored: "at the moment" We all agree that nVidia is indeed currently selling more...

    I find the lack of G-Sync Monitors, Disturbing

    No, you can't draw an equality like that from A to B, and then to C. Prices not dropping is more probably because they are already making them at low margins, and can't sell cheaper. I would consider the following facts to be more indicative of the paradigm change: 1) In 2016, there were 83...

    Dual displays with different resolution and refresh rate

    I think you'd get more knowledgeable answers at the GPU section. As in this case, it's indeed the GPU that's the point of interest. Anyway, my own guess would be that indeed, mixing different resolution and refresh rate combos can bring extra grievances. And one thing to make sure: are you...

    Where to find Chroma values for a monitor/TV?

    I wouldn't give that much credit on them, to be honest. It's a very niche detail, so you would have to get a hold of someone who is very clued-in about their products. I would think their basic pre-sales support personnel have a list of features that are most commonly asked about, and chroma...

    Where to find Chroma values for a monitor/TV?

    Never seen that info mentioned in manufacturers' spec sheets. >99% of users wouldn't do anything with that sort of info.

    Where to find Chroma values for a monitor/TV?

    You mean like chroma subsampling? Practically all monitors use 4:4:4. Whereas most TVs use 4:2:0, but some have 4:4:4. This is because most input/signal sources used with TVs use 4:2:0, as well. So no benefit to provide 4:4:4. Or at least ~5 years ago this was the case. Not sure whether 4:4:4...

    New here and need advise...Please help

    To simply get a picture through, sure. But the FreeSync most probably won't work with a converter. The DP and HDMI signals aren't directly bit-compatible, so it would require a separate protocol for the chips' "handshake" to understand that they are dealing with a converter. I haven't heard...

    31.5" 2560x1440 165 Hz VA G-Sync - LG 32GK850G

    @southernorth & @w1ze1, with regards to smearing vs. black crush: I'm not sure which either of you means, but here's my take. To me, smearing is when the pixel response time is too slow, so moving dark objects have a small trail after them, making it seem like it's indeed "smearing"? This only...
