  1. just to end the topic... I got 3 x Noctua NF-S12A PWM - 120mm and they are simply amazing! They fit just right and they are soooo silent!
  2. I'll get the Noctua NF-S12A PWM then. thank you guys!
  3. Howdy folks, I have an NXZT H440 case and in the specs say I've been looking into replacement fans as one the bearing is ruined and they are a bit loud, so I've been checking prices of the Noctua NF-S12A but they came with all 3 flavors and I have no idea what to get case contains a PWM controller, should I buy the PWM fans as well? or I'm ok with FLX (or ULN) ? should I even consider other brands like Crossair?
  4. I removed my DAC (AudioEngine D1) and it still does the weird noises with the cable directly connected to the computer headphone jack... will try using my phone as audio source to see if I get the same (to remove the computer out of the question) what have you find out?
  5. though the Samsung is only 120Hz... you almost need 2 graphic cards to hold that beast at a continuous 120fps remember that super ultra wide is around 5120x1440 (7.3m pixels) and to draw that amount of pixels, 120 times a second... you need a big "stake" to feed into that screen I'm on the same "ship", I'm also looking into 1440p super/ultra wide, and going that size, 100Hz is enough for me as I would need way more than my old 1080Ti to push those fps to the max of the screen I leave you with my current choices, there's no AOC as they have a terrible technical support, and I want to avoid that: (prices in USD) ---------------------------------------- $$ Msi MAG341CQ 3440x1440 VA 100Hz 4ms DVI/HDMI/DP (390) Dell AW3418DW 3440x1440 IPS 120Hz 4ms HDMI/DP (600) Benq EX3501R 3440x1440 VA 100Hz 4ms DP/HDMI/USB-C (750) Asus XG35VQ 3440x1440 VA 100Hz 4ms DP/2xHDMI (700) $$$ Asus PQ348Q 3440x1440 IPS 100Hz 5ms HDMI/DP (900) LG 34GK950G-B 3440x1440 IPS 120hz 1ms HDMI/DP (900) MSI MPG341CQR 3440x1440 VA 144hz 1ms 2xHDMI/DP (1100) Dell AW3420DW 3440x1440 IPS 120Hz 4ms HDMI/DP (1200) 49'' Samsung RG9 5120x1440 VA 120hz 4ms HDMI/2xDP (1100) Samsung odyssey g9 5120x1440 VA 240hz 1ms HDMI/DP (will come in 2020) ---------------------------------------- it's up to you to choose the one that fits your wallet the best
  6. You do understand that this is more like Lifx/Philips Hue than a simple strip right? I mean, you have tactic panels for start, and programmable, so you can say when you touch one, or slide over some do this or that ...
  7.

Versions 1.1 and 1.2 added DVD-Audio and SACD audio formats. some types: ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* DVI (Digital Visual Interface), since 1999: There are 3 types of DVI interfaces DVI-I (integrated, combines digital and analog in the same connector; digital may be single or dual link) DVI-D (digital only, single link or dual link) DVI-A (analog only) With some restrictions as well: Single link: 1920 × 1200 (WUXGA) @ 60 Hz Dual link: 2560 × 1600 (WQXGA) @ 60 Hz Analog video stream: 1920 × 1200 (WUXGA) @ 60 Hz The problem with old interfaces was always it's refresh rate, with monitors pass well over 60Hz, you would always need to use a DisplayPort interface to take the full res of your screen With such info, it's easier to take your own conclusions

    IPS or TN

    @Berko142 100% true ... believe me, I have 2 TN panels!!! 24'', 2560x1440, 1ms, 144Hz ... sounded amazing, I even bought 2!! but then ... Seeing movies bled my eyes, games are ok when they are moving ... soon I stop or in game menu ... ohhhh... my eyes! TN Panels are terrible doing degradé coloring, and it's just bad bad bad... I would choose (err, I will) a VA panel, as IPS is very good for people that do video/photo editing and color corrections ... I don't, I'm just a web developer and gamer here's some pictures and video so you can see how bad it is in a TN panel: https://photos.app.goo.gl/HW6fkkxakq5JTjcc7 as I said before:
  9. Does anyone have this product? Any comments, does it really worth around 200 bucks for 9 panels?
  10. Yes, IPS panels you get get better color reproduction overall ... but not with good VA Panels, and yes, no doubts, better image in wider angles ... but are you thinking of siting down aside and watch the screen? or havin' the screen do be a "public" display where you want to see it from afar and maybe side ? if it's mainly to see in front of the screen, why spend money on a IPS panel where we can get a great VA Panel for much less? IPS: + better color reproduction + better colors across wider view angles - refresh rates - response times VA: + better refresh rates + better contrast - not good view angles - color reproduction lower than IPS TN: don't even look at those ... I have 2... do. not. buy. them. if you want a screen for gaming without spending much: VA panels will delivery better 2 things: contrast (HDR!) and refresh rates (great for FPS games)... if you want for video/photo editing and color correction ... IPS! Sorry, I'm not into 27'' panels ... I only did my homework with 34'' and larger.
  11. You will get better features with VA panels, IPS's have better image across wider angles (then again, we're always looking in front, and the curvature makes you don't get far from the edges)... as today, I would rather have an VA panel, you save the money and you get better refresh rates and contrast levels than IPS panel... for the same amount of money or course... don't wanna get challenged by a X35 screen

    HDR

    To get the most of Netflix in a computer, you need to use the Windows App https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/netflix/9wzdncrfj3tj?activetab=pivot:overviewtab
  13. it's only 8 cm higher... 27'': 614 x 365 mm 35'': 836 x 445 mm Yes! the immersion in gaming plus more and more games have now Wide Screen support... is totally worth it (of course, it's all of a personal taste, and I do love it!)... try first, go to a store and check the ultra wide ones... the LG price vs the Benq EX3501R is almost the same... (that's why I'm so keen to swap my 2 screen for it) you also have more good ultra wide screens for the same price range - BenQ EX3501R (3440x1440, VA, 100Hz, 4 ms, HDMI/DP/USB-C) - Asus XG35VQ (3440x1440 VA, 100Hz, FreeSync, 4 ms, 2500:1, DP/2xHDMI) - MSI MAG341CQ (3440x1440 VA, 100hz, 4ms, 3000:1, DVI/HDMI/DP) But remember, no matter what choice you make, it's all about YOU! it's your feeling and happiness that comes first, so, 25'', 27'' or ultra wide, it's all about your money vs what you will fell when using such monitors I know I will only be happy with a ultra wide
  14. both amazing for the price ... then again, I would think going ultrawide
