Man of Honour
With the QF there is no difference between DP and HDMI, use whatever. I'm using DP that I've had for years.

Tried to recreate your flicker issue, but no luck. Going to have to put this one down to pebcak and move on unfortunately
Harsh.
Haha. He knows I am joking. Obviously the vrr implementation is not perfect which is a shame. But seems to be good enough for me.
I have noticed some minor flickering in the Mortal Kombat 1 menu. But is really is a tiny amount that it is easy to ignore. Not noticed it while playing the game itself which is what matters.
Should install Mortal Kombat 11 and see what it is like in the menu of that as that is the one I remember having the flickering on my ultrawide before it got the firmware update.
Talk about firmware, forgot to check which one the unit I hit is on. I just set it up and did windows hdr calibration.
Had a quick go on Cyberpunk. Did not notice any flicker. But was a very short play session. Wanted to see the graphics mainly.
Not sure what it is about that game that simply does not call me to play it.
I think I just need to start fresh one day because my current save has everything completely done and the world is just a bit boring unfortunately.

DLC?
I completed that on release. Was fun, but could not stand the girl that kept whining.

Can anyone tell me how to stop that Alien command centre reinstalling itself please.

I don't think you can, somehow Dell is enforcing a first time auto install through Windows Optional updates, I guess there might be a group policy setting in Windows that takes priority though and disabled auto updates for optional components.

yep:

Vendors can now automatically push driver updates through Windows Update. Here's how to turn that off.www.tomshardware.com
Turned that off and let's see if it happens again.
Worked for me

Thank you for that. So annoying.

Am I doing it wrong if I have HDR on all the time even if the game doesn't support HDR?
If game doesn't support HDR I tend to play it in SDR. Win 11 has auto HDR which does it's own thing but I don't bother with that.
I don't use HDR in windows, only enabled when viewing/playing HDR content

On the subject of hdmi Vs dp I randomly saw this on the monitors specification page:
1x DP 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3)(Supports up to 3840 x 2160 240 Hz, DSC, HDR)
2 x HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3)(Supports up to 3840 x 2160 240 Hz FRL, HDR, VRR as per specified in HDMI 2.1) (including 1x HDMI 2.1 FRL with eARC - to support Dolby ATMOS signal pass-through)
I know what DSC is but what's FRL? (Fixed Rate Link)
It seems like HDMI supports more things than DP.
Why is VRR only listed under HDMI?
1x DP 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3)(Supports up to 3840 x 2160 240 Hz, DSC, HDR)
2 x HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3)(Supports up to 3840 x 2160 240 Hz FRL, HDR, VRR as per specified in HDMI 2.1) (including 1x HDMI 2.1 FRL with eARC - to support Dolby ATMOS signal pass-through)

Yup the beta app. It is tested by HDR experts and confirmed to be just as good or even better in a lot of games.
