  1. Yeah, I had a 1 year warranty so it is gone by now. And because this problem was not there at the start and happend just recently the refound policy in my country wont help me aswell due to the fact I cant really tell how this problem occurred. I have mailed ASUS however and see what they have to say about this problem. Another fact to add in however is that before this happend I had problems with ''out of range'' error so in order to temporarily fix that I deactivated my GPU and updated my NIVIDIA drivers which solved that error. But now I am dealing with the problem stated in this post. I do not personally see how those problems would relate to eachothers tho, but I am not experienced and perhaps those two problems are related.
  2. Yeah I kinda figured that it wont be much I can do about it... which suck cus its a great monitor and it was fairly expensive for me. Besides, shouldnt a monitor be functional after 2 years atleast?
  3. Hey! I have the monitor ASUS PG278QR and it is now about 2 years old and I have noticed recently that I have bright ''burned'' in horizontal line and the search tool in the bottom left side also seems to be ''burned'' in. Do anyone of you recognize this problem and is there anything I can do about it? Some additional information and picutre: - The line and the search tool burned in is very visible aginst a grey background with an almost green/yellow colour. - The line and the search tool burned in is pretty much not visible on a white background and is shown very little aginst a completely black background - I have changed cable and it didnt work. Even when the monitor is not connected to a computer but still on, the line and seach tool can be seen as shown in the picture. - I have updated my drivers. - I have tried different resolutions and refresh rates. - In the picture I used a completely grey background for the test purposes and to better show my problem. Thanks alot in advance.
  4. Thank you! I made my order on a DAC that comes with optical cable and will be getting myself some RCA cables in the near future and try this out in the coming 2 weeks.
  5. So as the title says I got a pretty straigth forward question. I got a LG TV 55SK8100PLA and Logitech Z623 speakers and by default they do not support eachothers due to Z623 uses plugins like rca and headphone (3,5 mm) which the TV do not have. But my question is; if there is adapter I can buy so that I am able to use Z623 speakers with my TV? IF so, which one would you recommend? Im really grateful for answears.
  6. Ahh I see, so with the right speakers, headphones etc the TV would bring me the benefits of Atmos I guess. So apparentely the Xbox One X supports Dolby Atmos. But because my TV now also supports Atmos I would not gain any benefits of the Xbox One X having support for Atmos aswell right? For example, if I got the Xbox One X with my TV that supports Dolby atmos it would not make the sound better just because they both supports it or they wouldnt benefit eachothers? All I am thinking now is that it all depends on which one I use to channel my sound through. Even If I didnt get Xbox One X and gets the PS4 Pro instead, I could still benefit as much from Dolby Atmos through my TV?
  7. You most likely knows alot more then I do on this topic, dolby atmos is completely new ground for me. I only know some of the benefits and what small stuff I've heard from the market. Thank you for helping me tho, I appreciate the effort.
  8. Oh yeah sorry, I mean Atmos ofc. The TV is an LG 55SK8100PLA. Never heard about the dolby atmos ARC, they just mention dolby atmos as included.
  9. Too keep things short; I bougth an LG TV that includes Dolby Atmos and next thing I will do is to buy a gaming console and I am atm comparing PS4 Pro and Xbox one X with eachother. My questions on this topic however is as follows: - Xbox One X supports Dolby Atmos as far as I know, but is that only if you have a TV that includes Dolby atoms? - Will my TV enable Dolby Atmos while gaming regardless if I am playing on PS4 Pro or Xbox One X? (in that case does the Dobly Atoms feature that Xbox have really matter in my case? Keeping in mind that my TV already includes Dolby Atmos) Tv I got is: LG 55'' SK8100PLA I hope these questions make sense and that I might find the answear I seek.
  10. I will try and look into it in more depth before comitting to any purchase aswell as comparing to the new apartment and living room, because obviously the room itself will be a deciding factor in the end. Ty for the tips and information.
  11. Great answear! I really appreciate it. Everything you wrote is pretty much the same as I am thinking atm, it do feel like 4k and HDR and all that is big words for marketing but in reality the difference is not that much and I probably wont be able to tell a big difference when I am gaming. Also, thanks for mentioning the sound, I didnt know the things you brought up and sound is important for me to able to complete the experience. Right know I am looking into the difference between normal LED, QLED and OLED. Im trying to see if there is really a point in getting a QLED or OLED over a normal 4k LED (the price difference in my country is pretty big, normal 4k LED is way cheaper at around 500-700$ while OLED and QLED is around 1200-2000+$) But yes, I will most likely get a console and keep my PC on the side. It seems like the best option.
  12. It sure is an option I will consider, and I can see why a ps4 would be great in my situation compared to the other options.
  13. The thing is people have proved that 4k gaming is a reality with that budget, if you are okay with frames at around 30 - 60 fps which I am. And ofcourse depending on what true 4k really is, but thats up for debate. And as I've pointed out before, the 4k TV will be split between me and my girlfriend so I will pay 50% of the total price. And we will get a 50-55 inch 4k TV so the total price tag wont be that much for a TV.
  14. Well that sounds really interesting, I will do some more research on that matter before I make a decision.
  15. If its enough to only upgrade my GPU and PSU (obviously my current 500W wont be enough) then I will really consider getting a high-end GPU . But only if that would be enough, because how good would a rtx 2080 or 2080ti work with my CPU etc. and other older parts?
  16. Yes the fact that ps4 got all of those exclusives is great and also support for VR. They are the reasons I would consider PS4. But compared to the Xbox One X performance wise (with best graphic and resolution in mind, capable of both the consoles, native 4k or not) the Xbox got better performance and resolution. Atleast if you check the results from 4-5 comparing videos. However the PC option for TV gaming and 4k, for my specific goal, is a viable option and one that I consider alot instead of getting the Xbox One X. And as I have pointed out earlier. I dont mind playing on 30 FPS, if that in return would give me a native 4k or close to 4k resolution for the budget I have set. Nintendo Switch could be intresting, but its not really my cup of tea.
  17. Yeah thats the solution I am leaning most towards and its nice to hear your experience on this because you already have that setup. And the fact that the Xbox One X also include a 4k bluyray option is great for the overall TV entertainment.
  18. Yeah ofcourse, this is a very broad subject and question. Very specific and opinion-based solution aswell. It all comes down to what I prefer at the end of the day and what I feel like investing my time and money in. There is more then just gaming to consider aswell, but on this specific thread I focus on the gaming experience. But as of right now I am a very casual gamer that enjoy pretty much everthing. But to be more specific, I aim to play racing games, open world games, games that support local co-op/splitscreen and things like DOOM, wolfenstein on a 4k TV. And then use my computer for more competative games where I feel performance and 144 hz etc is more important then the visuals. But ofcourse I could get all that in one PC, and thats why I started this thread because I see two solutions; get a console for the TV and keep my current PC (with perhaps smaller upgrades) or upgrade my PC enough so that it can do everything and not get a console. But thats only for me to decide, but everything shared here helps me with that, because tbh I know not much about upgrading a PC and its performance. But I also do not know much about console experience. All opinions shared here do help me with my decision, so thank you for your humblest of opinions.
  19. Yeah I have seen that and it really brings up reasons that makes me lean more towards upgrading my PC. But there is also more things to my situation that would make me lean more towards console. But that video sure sheds more light on this whole thing.
  20. Those two cents are well appreciated. And thats the big reason for why I even made this post is because I see it the way you see it and I see benefits with getting a console in my situation aswell as upgrading my PC or build a completely new one for my specific need. This post is made so people can share their opinion on this, because I might find answears and see solutions in different ways that I otherwise would not have.
  21. Thats actually a really intresting deal for sure! But I am not certain how that would work for me in Sweden (if that matters) or if it fits in my situation. But perhaps I can find that deal in Sweden or similar if it wouldnt work out. Thanks you for the tip, its worth looking into.
  22. You got good points in what you are writing. And I will keep that in mind. But then again to get that TV gaming that I want I still need to get my PC hooked up with the TV and fix controller and everything around it. Im not completely sure how that would work out (performance and quality wise) and how to enable that, but I guess its pretty straigth forward and there are probably some good guides here on internet on that subject. I know steam got a good solution that you can use to play on a TV with controller through the PC. Tho I am not sure how Local co-op/splitscreen on TV would work through the PC. And If I choose too upgrade my PC I have no idea what parts I would need to upgrade or not, to get close to 4k or native 4k experience with my budget. And on the subject about next gen consoles. I have thougth about that aswell but the price of a One X is going down and I could probably get one for 400$ or less and the next gen consoles are rumored to be announced at the end of this year or 2020 and then it will probably take even longer for them to be released? But Ofcourse if I beef up my current computer I wont need to wait for that.
  23. Oh okay I see, supersampling wouldnt really matter on a 4k TV then I presum. Aye, good to know, then I will keep that in mind. Ty for your answear.
  24. Yes I agree on all parts you mention and I am aware that what you are saying is the reality in todays market and generation of consoles. But my goal is to play on a 4k TV and that will be my reality regardless of what platform I choose. So the question is based on whether or not I will do that with a PC or console, with the goal to get the best resolution possible for my budget. I do not care as much about performance as others, I am fine with 30fps+ (but not less then 30 fps). I have also heard the the Xbox One X use supersampling which either way does give a better experience (not completely sure how it works so I dont stand behind this argument 100%) and that a console will work better on a TV compared to a PC (as someone mentioned on this thread about HDR and PC not always going well together) But you are right and thats why I will still consider my options and there is alot of other things to consider like, multiplayer, VR, game library, etc. But I could also still keep my current computer for PC gaming on 1080p or 1440p for PC games and perhaps give it smaller upgrades in the future and get an Xbox One X for the 4k TV (then I would be able aim for good resolution gaming on the TV and aim for better performance on PC but with less resolution)
