Yes, Both freesync2 and gysnc2 support HDR. And that is fantastic. Needs to happen, and i'd like to know more about gsync 2 and freesync 2 for specs (nits,bits per channel, back light, etc) But i'm still of the mind that they are both exclusive tech but with AMD just saying ((open monitor support (because it is free) Amd tech required) while Nvidia is both monitor tech and Nvida hardware. Amd is saying only hardware is needed so somehow we are 100% open. There is specific tech needed from AMD. AMD's own website says that. AMD says they use standards in all there slides. But it is not a standard you need a certain tech (AMD) Just just needing to buy hardware in your monitor.

Can you be more specific? I'm not seeing anywhere that g-sync is VRR or FREESYNC. Nor that Nvidia can use Freesync tech. FreeSync is royalty-free, free to use, and has no performance penalty. G-sync is not rotyalty free since its hardware based, and is also performance free.' Royalty free doesn't mean anyone can use it. That is royalty free for their hardware partners (display partners) not for anyone to use. (throwing my opnion in here. It is because they can't! Freesync is AMD tech and can only be used by AMD.) Hence why it requires certain AMD cards and not just any random display output with a driver update.

From something else I posted it is basically this. I can't find anything confirming what everyone seems to agree on with both the xbox, freesync, and intel. I see words being used interchangeably but they are vastly different. VRR is not freesync. VRR is a VESA standard Freesync is AMD implementation and requires AMD tech, Hence why Nvidia can not support it. copied from another forum. Show me 1 slide, 1 information article or anything that shows HDMI is going to support freesync and not VRR (different tech) and yes they are different (prove that they are different as well if you can). This is like the Intel will support freesync shit that never happened. That was years ago. Where is it that. End of g-sync we have amd and intel working together. but no Intel never even said that they will support freesync just VRR. If anyone can show me evidence that HDMI/displayport VRR is freesync instead of just a VRR than I will agree. Till than they are implementing different things. Maybe with Xbox supporting it natively it might push HDMI to freesync instead of just VRR as a standard. But as of this moment there is no news of HDMI supporting Freesync Just VRR (different than VRR)

Rust is a terrible game to base cpu usage off of. Play an actual game and tell us the results. Its a shit optimized game still in beta.

NOPE. Don't do that. Hell I and a lot of people would say no even if you owned a 1080ti. Shit buy a titan and water cool it. It's not worth it. Save up and buy a replacement card. The scaling is terrible and your throwing money down the drain. 100% not worth it. UNLESS you only ever play 1 game and that game has 80% scaling on a 760 than sure but otherwise NO. Don't do it it's not worth it.

Well it would help to know the processor. Is budget a brand new core i3 or a gen or two old i5/i7. That will help us a bunch. Do you want to overclock, Sli, RGB, a specific color? These things all help for what you want.

Well that's amazing. I'm sure custom cables help with the look, but the cable run looks very impressive. I'm also stuck on a few cases but I have always felt the s340 elite was the best in class unless you want to spend multitudes more for what you want from the s340. I see you replaced all the nzxt fans for corsair. Was there a specific reason for this or just to keep an general aesthetic when adding 2 more fans. I'm wanting to fill all fan spots when I buy the case so wondering if maybe the NXZT fans weren't the greatest.
