Ah that's very interesting, because most people seem to say that there's frame-skipping. Thanks for your input! I'd like to hear anyone else's experience with LG monitors (preferably the 34UC88 or 34UC98 or similar) and getting 75Hz on an Nvidia card. Cheers!
-
These are two very different inputs, so can both of you clarify? @Ziodin Can you please try to overclock the monitor using CRU, or perhaps enable FreeSync and use the 75Hz natively? That would really help me out in further understanding whether 75Hz would work. @dosmoney Have you tested out the UFO Test? If not, could you test it out here: UFO Test: Frame Skipping Checker Thanks for both of your inputs. Cheers!
-
Sorry for the bump (and double post), but I'm still looking for an answer. If anyone could chip in that would be nice. Cheers.
-
I am aware of that, however this monitor doesn't allow for 75Hz to be used without FreeSync being enabled, and although it is possible to enable FreeSync on an Nvidia card to get the 75Hz, lots of people seem to say they experience frame skipping. As for what "frame skipping" means, I believe it's basically when the GPU drops some frames that should be displayed. For example, if the monitor is 75Hz (like in this instance) you won't actually be seeing the full 75 frames that should be displayed; it would display less frames. Could someone who owns this monitor and uses an Nvidia card (or someone who has information regarding this) perhaps shed some light on this? Is it possible to fully utilise that 75Hz without having an AMD card?

Good day everyone. I'm planning on getting the LG 34UC88, but was wondering whether I could get to 75Hz without any frame skipping, with an Nvidia card? I've read in some places that they were able to get 75Hz, but they seem to always mention that it ends up frame skipping, so if anyone who owns the monitor or a similar one could shed some light onto this, that would be great. Furthermore, I was also wondering if anyone successfully increased the FreeSync range to something lower, like 40Hz-75Hz, and if so how did you go about doing it? Any help is appreciated. Cheers.

All I could find on Ebay were used 34UC97 monitors for over $600. Is there any way you could provide me with a link? As for the refurbished and used Dell curved ultrawide, I know it's only a little over $500 but I was hoping for something either exactly at $500 or below that. Any other suggestions?
-
Good day. I previously started a thread asking whether I could find a curved ultrawide monitor for around $300. This time I have a slightly higher budget, and I'm also fine with looking at the used market. So if anyone has any idea where I can find a 34" curved ultrawide monitor for $500, used or new, do tell me. I have found this: https://www.amazon.com/LG-29UC88-B-UltraWide-HDMI-Monitor/dp/B01DMPK6DU ..and it suits practically all my needs is except for two things; - It's 29 inches - It doesn't ship to where I live As always, any help is appreciated. Cheers!
-
Got it guys, $500 isn't really possible, but once again, I'm not talking about the US here. Anywho, I'll either be looking at Ebay or just telling him about scrap metal companies. Other than that, he could keep them on hold until perhaps he can find a company that needs a large amount of server racks. Thanks to everyone for the help.
-
$500 is relatively cheap where I'm living (different currency so yea). Ebay is a consideration, but I was wondering if some companies would actually be looking to buy these in bulk? Doesn't seem like it from your replies. I'll check Ebay, any more suggestions are welcome. Cheers!
-
Good day. Recently a colleague of mine told me that he's looking to sell some server racks. He has around 40-60 that he was previously using for his company, and he wants my help to try and sell them. He said he's looking to sell them as quick as possible as he is in need of the money. So which is the best way to sell a bulk amount of server racks as quick as possible? Could I perhaps sell them all to a manufacturer or such? They are full-sized server racks that he bought for around $1000 each several years ago, and he's now looking to sell them for $500 or more. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

When will Fractal Design make a Tempered Glass case?
EdwardIIV replied to EdwardIIV's topic in Power Supplies
Wow, that is surprisingly close to a Fractal case, good find! Although I don't like the hard drive bays at the front of the case plus no PSU shroud, so it's still not perfect for me. Will keep an eye on it though. -
Hello everybody. I'm a big fan of Fractal Design's cases, mainly because of their Scandinavian-style design and their cable management, but there's one problem; none of their cases currently feature tempered glass. This is a big bummer for me as I'd really love having a tempered glass case to show off my build. I know there are ways to mod the case and add tempered glass, but it seems like a whole lot of work with a lot of chances for error. The Fractal Design Define Mini C is pretty much perfect for me, other than it not having a TG side panel, which begs the question; when will Fractal Design, practically the only case manufacturer who hasn't started making TG cases, jump on the bandwagon as well? And is there any other very similar option out there for me that does feature TG and is Micro ATX? This is meant to be more of a discussion thread, so any input is appreciated. Cheers!

Good day everybody. I recently saw a new video from randomfrankp, in which he shows off a "new" product that syncs up the RGB LEDs behind one's TV to whatever they're watching at. I have personally never come across this concept, but after reading some comments I learned that it isn't new and is called Ambilight. With that, I have a question; are there any good (and preferably affordable) ambilights for PC? I'd love it if they worked with everything (games, videos, even the desktop wallpaper). Any help with this is appreciated. Cheers!

Hi. Again, apologies for the slight bump. I have now made the decision that I would be fine with replacing the keycaps of a keyboard if needed. So, if anybody knows of any TKL mechanical keyboard with cable routing, even if it has a gamer-y font, I'm fine with it, as I'll be able to replace the keycaps. I would also prefer some RGB lights. Cheers!
-
Does anyone else have thoughts on this? Any help is appreciated.
-
I didn't seem to realise it has cable routing. That's definitely going to go into consideration, thanks!
-
I don't mind whichever switch, even if it's a good membrane-mechanical keyboard. I prefer the aesthetics here more, hence why I'm going for TKL. I honestly like the Razer Ornata and the Feenix Autore, but both don't have TKL variants (and the Feenix is on the pricier side). The Cooler Master is almost perfect, other than those not so bright LEDs (in comparison to Razer) and no cable routing on the S model.
-
So what you're trying to say is that connecting via Ethernet will not affect the Wifi for other users any more than it would have affected the other devices if I connected wirelessly? Also, how big is the difference in terms of speed? And is this why when there are PC builds on YouTube, they rarely use a wireless card or USB adapter (because they use Ethernet)? Cheers!
-
Good day. I'm actually looking to potentially buy either of these, and was wondering which would be a better choice. I am a gamer, but also a content creator and graphic designer. I know it's generally better to go for a flat screen if I'm a graphic designer, but I don't mind the curve. Now, putting the 144Hz refresh rate aside from the 34UC79G, which would be a better choice to go for? Does the 34UC79G match up to the 34UC98? Or does it suck in comparison? I heard the brightness is relatively low on the 34UC79G, is this true, and is it that noticeable? Any help is appreciated. Cheers!
-
Sorry for the slight bump, I'm still looking for a keyboard that's TKL and features cables routing. Like said, preferably more stealthy looking and not so gamer-y, like the Masterkeys Pro S. Any help is appreciated.
-
How hard is it to actually connect via Ethernet, as my setup won't be too far from my router and I can think of ways of stealthily hiding and routing it to the router. Is it just a single cable running from my PC towards to router or what? And will it disrupt the other PCs in the house's connection by any chance? I'd like to understand more about this, what problems could I run into? Cheers!
-
I've seen that one and will definitely keep it in consideration as well.
-
Good find. I'll consider that, but it doesn't seem to feature any cable routing, and I'm not a big fan of the whole aesthetic it gives out. I'd prefer something a tad bit more simplistic.
-
Quick question regarding this, as I have been considering this monitor quite a lot; is the glossiness of the bezels and the back really that bad? I'm wondering how cheap it looks and feels overall, so what's your idea of it?
-
I find it relatively decent, and tbh Razer's RGB leds are the best I've seen. But a TKL keyboard is just generally must more aesthetically pleasing, plus I'd rather a mech keyboard, hence this thread.
