    Everyone wants higher bitrate streams but that isn't the answer for better quality, HEVC(h.265/x.265) and VP9 are though. High bitrate streams are literally just brute forcing quality, sacrificing a massive amount efficiency to reduce macroblocking artifacts. Peoples CPUs will/are outpacing potato internet speeds making encoding/decoding these new high efficiency codecs more likely to happen before speeds get faster, especially on mobile.

    Fast Sync - Uncapped, no tearing, added latency Borderless Fullscreen - Uncapped, no tearing, added latency https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_Window_Manager

    Edge is really good for watching Twitch streams, it uses almost no CPU unlike Firefox or Chrome which use up to 30% on a 4970K for a 1080p player window Livestreamer is the only thing that uses less than Edge

    You can't turn V-Sync off because the game is running in Borderless Fullscreen, which means DWM(Aero) is applying Triple Buffered V-Sync. The game can report 500 FPS internally but DWM caps the game at your refresh rate. This is why Borderless games don't Screen Tear with "V-Sync Off" in the game

    I returned my MG279Q after 3 days because the bleed was terrible. People shit on my posts on Reddit when I say watch out for this monitor, it has terrible QC but it is the only IPS 1440p 144Hz FreeSync option right now. The Acer G-Sync version is just as bad, they use the same panel, I'm pretty sure it is the same panel as this ROG too, it's definitely the same brand

    It's a good thing you've been able to do this in Windows since....Windows 95/NT...probably earlier. I have never used CCC to change my resolution or extend my desktop because you had to click like 5 buttons to even get to the damn menu. Half the clicks are spent trying to remember what menu it is even under

    Can you get 144hz IPS/PLS 1440p without either of them?
