Any gamers here?

Ahh control reasonance is on my list too! I played First Light then Indiana Jones a couple months back too. Great games.


Death Stranding will be my first Kojima game as well.

I agree, the hardware prices are insane, but with or without framegen I'm still doing ok even in 4K with FSR. I run linux on my machines so I stick with AMD.

What kind of setup do you have?

I built a pc. Rtx 5070ti, AMD ryzen 7 5800x,32gb ram. Play on a 42 inch samsung oled. Runs about anythink at 4k

I can’t believe it, I would have never guessed you were a Wow guy!

I am playing forever but wow retail spoiled me to get things fast and make my life easier especially during those weeks that I am super busy and I can’t play that much.

Retail is definitely a far stretch from Forever ( vanilla + ). Forever is definitely the long game and tbh a little refreshing compared to the loot piñata of live.

OLEDs are a game changer. I got a 65in Sony Bravia 4k OLED and paired it with my second PC running a 7800xt hellhound, 5800x, 32gb of RAM and it's been awesome. It's kinda hard to go back to IPS or LED.

The entire setup is 4K+ VRR+ HDR + Full RGB capable over HDMI on Linux which is feat in itself lol. Anyone who plays with Linux will know why.

Sorry for geeking out 😅

The reason why our GPUs have one HDMI port and 3 display ports is because the HDMI forum is a run by a bunch of assholes that keep their code closed source.

Up until recently open source GPU drivers didn't have access to the full capabilities of the card when using the HDMI port. Valve and AMD put a lot of pressure on them to give up some of the code.

Not a problem on Windows for either Nvidia or AMD as the drivers are proprietary.

Yes. Double check in your Nvidia control panel you're getting the max bit depth as well, so you're getting what you're paying for.

In order for me to get HDR, VRR and 12bpc bit depth(full rgb) at 4k I needed an active fiber optic HDMI cable to handle the bandwidth as all of those things together are very demanding.
