    I have that monitor as well, maybe 65 hertz is safe enough, still a bit scared though. 70 hertz? even scarier. the 5-10 fps difference will surely be almost unnoticeable, is it worth it? I actually don't know. Probably not.

    Just coming here to ponder over and present an idea that surely has been proposed a lot of times - So far I have been hesitant to overclock my 60 hz 1440p IPS monitor. I'm afraid that it could break as I've read has happened on the internet even when overclocking only 2-3 hertz more than the limit. Some games probably don't even support weird, non-standard refresh rates. So my first question, when overclocking a monitor, does internal components get hotter as when overclocking other components or is it something with like the incoming data not being able to be handled that fast or something? Because if it is due to heat issues, g-sync and/or freesync could add a feature to make their thing even awesomer. Say you bought a super nice 144hz g-sync enabled monitor, as well the top of the line newest gpu. Since the framerate goes up and drops naturally when rendering a game, gaming on your new, powerful gpu finds your puny game graphics easily rendered at 160-170 hertz in some areas. So your monitor adapts and refreshes at 160-170 hertz. After two minutes of rendering at 160 hertz the monitor goes "hey there, give me a break here, I was only made for refreshing at 144hz! chill off for a bit." The graphics card gets the message and underclocks itself to run the game at around 144 hertz cooling the internal components of the monitor and itself, as well as conserving power. Later on, the monitor is ready again and goes 160 hertz when available. This situation would only happen if the graphics card was too powerful for the game graphics, if the game demanded more of the gpu and it worked hard through areas at 120hertz, the monitor would cool faster and underclocking the gpu would not be needed.

    The only thing I can campare the G3 to is my iPhone 4, so everything is pretty much an upgrade for me, the best thing being the massivle display.

    I can't expect an answer when it's with the consumer electronics. And honestly, it needs a bit of advertising

    A little over 2 weeks ago I posted this thread http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/129982-hi-everyone-im-here-to-talk-about-project-gooseberry/, and I have tried to resurrect it many times here on the forum, and contacting Linus doesn't seem to help either.. Has the thread been overlooked or is this some tech news that you guys aren't really interested in? Be as blunt about it as you need to My biggest wish is to have it be mentioned on tomorrow's WAN Show, since I'm sure it will help more people know about it. 16 days left to donate Cheers!

    Maybe some of you guys are unsure of what the learning material and open source resources would be like, http://gooseberry.blender.org/robot-making-of-design-with-sheep-in-mind/#more-291 http://gooseberry.blender.org/wolf-making-of-sparks-and-smoke/ http://gooseberry.blender.org/caterpillar-making-of-animating-uvs/ http://gooseberry.blender.org/teaser-full-sound-edit-release/ most production data will start being distributed as soon as the Blender Cloud is up and running fully

    I've started to lose faith in getting any attention from this forum, but I will post this update anyway http://www.blender.org/press/project-gooseberry-why-it-matters/
  10. mStuff
    Exactly! thanks!

    Some time ago, I believe it was on the WAN Show, Linus talked about a site that he recommended for making basic website layouts, but I have forgotten what it was called.. Anyone know? Cheers!

    A couple of days ago, I posted a thread about some tech news (this one: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/129982-hi-everyone-im-here-to-talk-about-project-gooseberry/) How do I make sure Linus knows about it? Does he read PM's? Does he read tweets? Which forum categories does he check? Cheers!

    It seems like I failed in getting Linus' and Slick's attention about this before this week's WAN show, I will see if they will consider mentioning it next week. Do you guys think this is something suitable for the WAN show? The world's first open source animation movie is pretty huge in some areas of the internet. By the way, I feel like this thread is kind of trapped here on consumer electronics, I hope someone will move it soon.
  14. mStuff
    Or maybe better yet; if the thread is considered tech news, it could probably be moved to the tech news and reviews section ?

    I'm not sure this has anything to do with consumer electronics Would it be possible to move the thread to off-topic instead? Thanks!
