I'll buy similar one, not the same.
-
I'll buy another cheapish one and see if it fixes my problem. If not, its probably a faulty TV and I'll have to return it.
-
Shall I buy the £37 Belkin one then?
-
Have you got this item at all?
-
Okay I will buy another 'cheap' 4k cable to see if it solves my HDR banding issues.

I have a Philips 4K HDR TV and i am experiencing banding in dark areas on the screen when HDR signal is on, originally i thought it was windows 10 but i have now tried the same HDMI cable on my PS4 with HDR on and the banding is still there. I'm starting to think it might be a faulty HDMI cable rather than the TV as it's new and only happens when a HDR signal is detected... I currently have - https://www.amazon.co.uk/HDMI-PRO-GOLD-Ethernet-Return-Red/dp/B002U38E9O/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1528967044&sr=8-3&keywords=hdmi+4k+cable and now i am thinking about buying - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-AV10175bt2M-BLK-Premium-Optimal-Viewing/dp/B075N83B9X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1528967059&sr=8-1&keywords=hdmi+4k+cable+belkin but i don't want to be sucked into buying a more expensive HDMI cable if it's not going to be any better than another cheaper 4K cable...? A side question here then would also be is it the HDMI cable or a faulty TV? The picture is crisp clear when watching 4K Movies off a USB plugged into the TV but it never pops up saying that a HDR Signal is detected when using a USB so i don't think it's using HDR when watching off the USB Input.

I should also add that it does it on youtube and default windows desktop background pictures... doesnt that rule out compression?
-
The images above are from downloaded blu ray movies and the bottom one is a 4k test video. How do I try a blu ray disk on my PC? When I insert one my PC does not detect it...?

I have a 4K HDR Philips TV but when i enable the HDR setting in Windows 10 all black/dark colours are pixelated. My PC has an NVIDIA GTX970 and i am using a brand new 4K@60Hz HDMI cable. Is this a windows, tv, nvidia or hdmi cable issue? When i disable HDR in windows the black colours are fine... Pictures of examples are here -

Haha cheers will do
-
I replaced the HDD with an SSD and HDD over the weekend and my PC is up and running faster than before now, cheers for your help!
-
We do indeed I am going to use a HDD that someone is giving me on the weekend, once windows is up and running on that and everything works fine I am going to buy an SSD and install windows on that instead. Thanks so much for your help and input and i will let you know how it goes on the weekend

So i'm typing this from my PC which is running Linux Ubuntu through a USB and it's working fine. Firefox crashed a couple of times but it's only when I load Youtube home page?? I was able to load this website and reddit fine and whole system is running fine. Linux is listing a device called 1000GB volume which i presume is my HDD as it's a 1TB HDD. When i try to open it on Linux the following error comes up (see image)... Think this pretty much confirms by issue! (unless that listed device is some dummy drive?)
-
I unplugged and replugged a few things and reseated the ram but no luck. Before I change the hard drive on the weekend I am going to run Linux off a USB and see if that works fine. It it does then surely it's a hard drive issue?
-
Will do! One last thing question, I am going to check all wire connections and reseat RAM etc later on inside the PC. Should I completely unplug PC from wall or just turn off the PSU switch but leave PC plugged in?
