    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    I'm finding zoomed shots (x10-x30) to be much improved but still have issues with most scenes being over-exposed, especially indoors. I have to manually move the exposure slider to minimum for most shots to look accurate in the default camera app, or use -1.5 EV in Open Camera to get scene...

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    I'm really struggling with the cameras on the S24U, especially when it comes to low light and moving subjects. The OnePlus 8 Pro this replaced was far more consistent as a point and shoot camera. I was fooled by the YouTube reviews and have now missed the 14 day return window. I have 124 photos...

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Family Thread

    What acool feature Changing the 'Contrast' in the Developer Options to medium or high seems to help a little bit until the software bug is fixed. I'm quite happy with the colours on mine with medium contrast.

    What is the test to determine if the hardware is faulty?

    Thank you for this! I went through the defense discount link, followed your steps and it is showing as tracked in Quidco (£21.64) plus the £50 Samsung bonus I managed to opt in for through Quidco. Will total £890.01 with no trade in for the 512GB - if they pay out. I also went for the orange...

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 (G95NC) 57" Uber-Wide

    I don't think theres enough bandwidth on the GPU to simultaneously run 3440*1440 @ 240Hz (assuming a G9) and 7860*2160 @240Hz. They should both work at native res @120Hz.

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 (G95NC) 57" Uber-Wide

    I don't see any darker rectangle in the centre of the screen. I do however see horizontal banding lines on the bottom 40% in some parts of that video.

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 (G95NC) 57" Uber-Wide

    Mine died. Waiting on a 'refurbished' one with some panel damage I got for half price to arrive, and then I'll let you know. I'm too impatient to wait for new ones to come back in stock :cry: No doubt this replacement will also die in a few weeks knowing my luck!

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 (G95NC) 57" Uber-Wide

    I've requested an 'in home repair' but still waiting to see if they accept this. None of the home repairs that have happened in the States appear successful. Sounds like a fault between the power supply and logic board. I normally run the monitor on a low brightness (4-8) but I did enable...

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 (G95NC) 57" Uber-Wide

    It was fun whilst it lasted, but after 5 weeks, my G9 57" has died. Power is getting to it as you can hear one of the relays clicking, but there no display or OSD. This appears to be a worryingly common issue on Reddit. Shame as I absolutely love this panel. I'd hold off buying one (if you...

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 (G95NC) 57" Uber-Wide

    Have they managed to get 240Hz at native res? I was limited to 120Hz on a 6950XT via HDMI 2.1. Just got a 7900XTX, and I must admit this monitor is a joy to use at 240Hz.

    Z390 Aorus Owners thread

    When turning the PC on from a cold start my board reboots 1 second after the fans initially spin up, then proceeds to boot as normal. This only happens when overclocking as the stock profile starts up without interruption. Does this happen to anyone else?

    I've now got the Master and the drivers from Gigabyte don't include any audio console.

    Gigabyte Z370 Gaming 7-OP - Is She Dead?

    My understanding is the board will automatically switch to the backup bios under fault conditions; there's no physical switch on the board to select which bios to use. Got an RMA number so will be sending it back soon. I dropped the plastic CPU socket protector when putting it into position...

    Gigabyte Z370 Gaming 7-OP - Is She Dead?

    Hi all, Built a new PC 3 months ago using the aforementioned motherboard but I suspect she's called it a day. I updated the BIOS 2 days ago after booting and noticing version F2 was running, this was updated to F10 shortly after purchase so thought it was a bit odd. Since updating to F11 the...

    Kraken G12 Install

    What pump are you using it with? I paired the G12 with a Kraken X42 AIO which has a connector for the 92mm fan in the wiring loom. This allows control of the fan through their CAM software.

    delidded my 8700k, amazing temp drop

    Just fitted the copper IHS after attacking the CPU with a Stanley blade (too impatient to wait for the delid tool XD). The copper one does have a greater surface area in contact with the CPU heatsink which is bound to help somewhat. Its dropped my temps down 15°C on average with it now peaking...

    delidded my 8700k, amazing temp drop

    Glad to hear that it made such a difference as I plan on doing mine in the next week or so. Ordered a copper IHS to replace the stock one as well as reviews show that also helps a tiny bit.

    Overclocking on 2600X CPU/MB so easy it is ridiculous

    That's not a bad CPU at all. I'm beginning to regret going Intel and not giving AMD a try now! The money I could have saved :eek: https://www.3dmark.com/fs/16672793
