Tomorrow's technology yesterday and never! Quite a feat that.
I wonder when the Samsung version will be out, might have better luck at this rate.

So I took Vincent's (HDTV Test) advice and started playing around with windows scaling. At 125%, it fully goes the other way. To me, it now looks more like Mac OS/Retina levels of smoothness. Very impressed all of a sudden here.
Interesting, I tried 150 and 200 briefly. The latter was very smooth but obviously kills screen real estate. Will give 125 a go later on.

don’t use better clear type. I found that made it too bolded/thick.
Cool. Not had the chance to do it yet so I will just run clear type again once I change the scaling.

Only problem with that is you then effectively have a 2750x1150 display which isn't ideal for productivity (basically just slightly bigger than ultra wide 1080p)

Setting a custom size of 110% worked out really well for me. Text is sharp and clean and I'm not giving up real estate that I can notice for productivity.

Am guessing that's without using BetterClearType?

Yes. I personally did not like any iteration of better clear type.

Anyone seen any timelines for the Samsung monitor ? Looking for a more work friendly one.

Didnt think to do this, coming from a 4k monitor I immediately noticed a lack of sharpness. But this combined with cleartype has definitely helped.
I still feel as though I have some settings wrong though, as the monitor seems to be more colourful and bright in SDR mode, than when I turn on HDR.

@Curtis vincent no reason to run hdr on the desktop as the colorspace is rgb. With Xbox game bar installed you just windows + alt + B to enable hdr when needed.

Yeah I've been using that shortcut, I think HDR may just not have actually been enabled or was bugging out, as I used the shortcut but sometimes in game the HDR option is greyed out despite HDR being on in windows
