Nah, just tears.

Besides, why does he worry about saving money. One minute is saying he is very well of and can buy multiple 3090’s every month and could even smash the one he has now with a hammer. Next minute he has tears of joy for saving money that amounts to a lot less than the cost of a 3090 :cry:

I smell something…

Hi guys,

I spoke with Amex customer service today. I was told that if you placed the order during the offer and it was saved on your card the cash back should work even if it gets delivered after the offer ends (end of July 2022).

@Grim5 you have any technical findings or concerns about the tech? Lets go into some depth and see if there’s something to uncover here.

Good news for whom? Dodgy reporting I say :cry:

Anyone found any issues with the lighting not doing what it should do? My power button and rear light ring will occasionally stay lit pink or green when I turn the monitor on, but I have them both set to "off"

I know the power button is supposed to blink when it's doing the pixel refresh, but this is when the monitor is just on and in normal use.

You'll need to reset it via the alienware software, after then it will work as expected. That was what I did with teh first monitor, the replacement was fine out the box.

For me it was the Alienware software messing about. I turned it off in there then uninstalled the software. Job done.

Haggisman · 29 Apr 2022 at 15:08

have tried installing the software and configuring it in there and then uninstalled, we'll see what it does now

Anyone play destiny 2 on this. Just wondering what you have your in game hdr settings set at. Currently have mine at 800/25.

Robert896r1 · 30 Apr 2022 at 15:23

Any game where you can, set 1100nits for peak luminance.

I am not sure which game I saw it in, but I think there was one you could set it higher than 1000. Cyberpunk may have been it.

Everyone still enjoying their qd-oled monitors then? :cool:

Have got through some more games and I'm still wowed in every scenario, be that HDR or SDR.

Still think one of the most underrated features is the anti glare coating, it's just so good and great not having to close the blind over as much or worry about positioning/angle relative to lighting etc. as what I would with my LG oled.

Yea man, I am loving it. Even more so when seeing Grim go out of his way to post every bit of rubbish he can find in here to justify why he is missing out. The more he cries, the more I enjoy the monitor :cry:

I've had calibrated Kuro's, then oled's. Been to the multiple HDTVtest shootouts and follow display tech closely. The AW is easily the most impressive display I've owned. It's not close.

I was going to dump my C1 and grab a S95B. Unfortunately/thankfully, Samsung went full Samsung. While waiting for the Sony A95K, the news came out that 77inch QDO's will be here next year so I'll just ride out the C1 for this year and grab a Sony/Pana 77.

Ok. having spent time with HX 300, that wins but you get the point.
