Part of the problem is expectation of the viewer after decades of 24 fps. The other part of the solution is that the set designers, make-up and cgi guys simply have to do a better job (as in a higher minimum standard). I know they've got it quite tough already but it should be do-able in the big budget films that choose 48 fps.

Ah but what are rules there for ?

Yeah i have one of the 4k 40" philips.. I love the look and the detail but i agree at 60hz its a nightmare for shooters.. Although I am now at the age where i like my games to look great.. back in the day i would run first person shooters at the lowest detail and so on for that "extra edge" those days are gone hahaha.
Yea, monitors look to be well behind on adopting HDR. I get that makes many PC users less excited, but it *will* come and it will be glorious. People saying it's not a big deal are going to eat their words at some point.
As for those of y'all wanting IPS HDR monitors - you really dont. IPS has inherent problems with contrast, which defeats a lot of the purpose of HDR. What will be ideal will be VA displays, OLED(despite not being quite as bright at the top end) and upcoming QLED(quantum dot film) displays.

Well... When are these so called Freesync 2 displays going to be available?
I'm waiting on Vega first but will need a new monitor too.
Hopefully the two will be available together.

Yeah good point. Would love a Freesync 2 OLED, but that won't be happening this year it seems, but QLED Freesync 2 would be very good in the mean time for my next monitor.
My next monitor will be just something to keep me happy until OLED ones arrive at a decent price (under four figures). So will probably upgrade again circa 2019.

You are twisting my words, in fact, you are making up stuff. I didn't say HDR was bad, I didn't say progress was bad. I just don't think HDR is anywhere close to game changing. and besides why would that mean that I don't care about image quality? If you read my posts properly and not jumped to conclusions, then you would have seen that image quality is very important to me, why else would I have bought one of the best TV's ever made?
Why do I think HDR isn't game changing, several reasons.
The average joe, most of them won't notice. But since they don't matter to you, let's move on.
For the enthusiasts that are on this and other forums, the people that you are making assumptions about, more than likely already have a top of the line TV and/or top of the line monitor. The jump to HDR will be an improvement just not a massive improvement. Certainly not what I would consider "game changing"
Maybe it's just our definition of what "game changing" is. For me "game changing" means something that radically alters the way we play games or watch movies. HDR is a welcome update to image quality but I couldn't say it's massive leap forward. I think Gsync and Freesync are more game changing than HDR, even though I don't even consider them to be truly game changing either.
Personally for me, VR is a game changer.

Why do people keep complaining about how long it's taking Vega to come when we have known for at least 8 months when the release date will roughly be?
If it's on schedule expect it at around the tail end of next month/start of June most likely.

VR will be a game changer also once decent content comes out for it. Right now I think people's VR headsets are gathering dust from what I have been seeing. I am waiting for the next gen ones myself.
Only a few games on it I would be interested to play at the moment, so not worth it at all as it is for me.
horrible ppi. I would want it higher res than that at that size. Yuk. Im not even sure without getting my calculator out whether that would even look as good as a small 1080p monitor.
For me I want 30" to 40" 4k maybe widescreen, HDR oled screen with 100 to 120Hz and option of freesync or gsync and a price tag of around £1000.
Thats when i will next upgrade.

I think you're meant to just wash it.

I'm currently only on a 75hz panel but with Freesync which feels a lot better than 60hz did, It's only an extra 15 hz but it makes a big difference for some reason. I spent about a month on two 144hz panels before getting the 75hz one and the 75 still seemed great when I switched. I do want a fster one when I upgrade again though.

With these Vega teasers AMD seem to have missed the point.
None of them actually tease anything, It's making me very worried for Vega.

Same, but I couldn't drop below 75Hz now tbh. I try to keep things above 70fps, nice and smooth

Personally I think we should be expecting roughly 1080 performance, and anything better is a bonus
