Doobeedoo

I had issue like that on Battle.net with updates sometimes, pause them for few sec then resume helped sometimes.

Somehow I don't have it and I'm on latest build hah.

Just update Windows and then configure to not auto download and install but to prompt.

I get that yeah, but just saying that it's very common for regular people average wages not being paid in time, literally main crown carrying business. Common folk that depend on those little wages way more then big businesses or investors though. So many contracts mean nothing sadly, employers are not held accountable at all.

I get that, but not compesating people that literally bring money for the company will always look like some excuse as they are not CEO payments but regular wages. Now stuff like this happens even more in private sector, which is insane as most businesses are. So back to my point that it's insane is that how regular people can't feel safe to get paid by private companies even more. Sad.

Not getting paid in time let alone months should instantly have any company under inspection and microscope. Can't believe we're still in time where people can't even feel safe to get paid under contract, sad.

Also may as well get 990 Pro now as it's been out for a while at around same price.

Yeah neat stuff.

To me it's kinda whatever on PC as it's really more to do with DRM anyway. What's the point of say physical media if it requires online authentication for a game that doesn't even need it? So really the thing is that games that are not online should not have DRM though, physical or offline games you bough. But here we are with Steam and Battle.net though, we have GOG as alt.

Good though, need to move on both sw and hw wise. YT compression sucks so bad anything with detail, a lot of changes and fast movements. So bad. Also lack of 120fps even, come on.

Usually Windows update picks up drivers it needs. No point messing anything on LCD monitor just get a faster one. For CRT yes very old games look better on it, also motion clarity is better as well vs most LCDs in fast games.

Can depend on the game but just test and see what feela better for you then. Be it using VRR if not huge swings or cap to stable fps.

In this case, I'd just use upscale then.

Just don't use HDR with HDRn't monitor. Even with proper HDR monitors, like OLED there can be issues, just even having to on/off it fiddle for whatever content or game is annoying and broken at times. Windows looking crap in HDR and different monitor HDR modes needing to test which is better for what content. I feel until everyone starts having OLEDs issues will continue as most are on LCDs and fragmentation between displays capabilities to be taken into accound hence all the adjuatments between modes, sliders nonsense. From content standpoint it will improve as it will be known people have OLEDs and that will be the target. Another is Windows OS chain that will need to improve so basically we don't think is it on/off but just works.

I have Aorus Elite AX and it's very good. I got it last year. The network and audio are fine on boards these days, wouldn't worry too much unless you need like 10Gbit or very high end audio gear. So basically depends how much M.2's you need and PCIe slots you will use, if you need. I wanted USB4 but yeah, very hard to get a board with it. I'd just make sure board covers IO I need and has good VRMs. This board does. CPU wise I's get 7800X3D if you can, I have it it's awesome. No it doesn't have any issues, core park was some issue for reviewers when swapping CPUs. I'd assume you won't do a lot of editing really, otherwise you'd get a higher core count. For PSU get 700W min. HUB did a roundup of latest B650 board you can check as some are not worth. https://www.techspot.com/review/2828-amd-b650-motherboard-budget/ Check VRM temps and performance after and avoid those that are bad.

This is primarily when hit by studio lights mainly for worst case scenario to demonstrate, like you see in reviews. You will never really have a strong light directly hitting monitor though. Some mention in reviews that it's overblown issue kinda in that sense. Another thing is it has to do how QD-OLED works that it can't use polarizer, but not sure on complete details on that. We've had different sub-pixel layout for a very long time, even though RGB stripe one was more regular one. But it's really due to lack of how Windows handles this as MS didn't update the OS for new monitors. Samsung layout allows all sub-pixels to be as close to one another equally to produce best picture, which makes sense when you think about it. Aside from QD the display has better color volume, also under higher brightness and more pure white vs WOLED panel. There's a reason where the white sub-pixel is to convert colors as best it can with that arrangement. This is just another annoyance in HDR on PC due to Windows, different content and monitor capabilities. Before OLED most LCDs were just straight up crap for HDR and those super expensive ones were kinda the minimum. So big range of swings in how the image is shown and content needs to be shown as best as possible on variety of displays so different modes and containers. It can depend between panels/monitors too, so I'd just experiment which mode in which content or game works better for now. It seems we're far from days where we don't fiddle or even think about is HDR on or which mode etc. but just works without having to change anything. But by the time that can happen HDR chain needs to be improved and everyone also needs to get on same bar of having OLED monitors that have solid specs now vs LCDs that many are sheer trash. Not really, many OLED TV's are 'dim' in that regard though, those nits measurements are on a very small surface not full screen. Full screen white is on those lower end spectrum. You're not going to view content on OLED outside with sun hitting on it that it matters so much or that it's a huge difference as hose numbers may say. How our eyes perceive brightness, it doesn't scale linearly in nits but logarithmic so in that case it's not as of a big difference as one would think just looking at numbers. We would need much higher nits cable display to perceive it also much brighter.

Yeah I saw that Rtings.com updated testing. It's good they're doing it as old one didn't show enough difference between scenarios, especially with modern displays. This one has more test scenarios and tighter tolerance so imperfections stand out more. Their article https://www.rtings.com/monitor/learn/research/pursuit-photo Really I'd maybe expect HUB or their MUB channel to potentially expand testing even more with high speed camera persuit shots and faster panning. Awesome to see better tests and monitors lately.

Only VA that's ok is higher end one from Samsung but for fpa focused scenario better options out there. Just depends how much one is willing to spend.

Yeah different sub-pixel layout on current OLEDs vs LCDs but also MS doesn't care to update Windows for different sub-pixel layout. So 4K will look better, it generaly does but with this issue higher res obviously helps. Look at phones.

I got one from Ducky they have various model sizes and switch options. Wanted to get Mountain Everest keyboard but they don't ship to my country. Also WASD keyboard has online builder, shipping is insane though.

Really depends how much you are willing to spend and with how much performance you will be satisfied. So either get a new CPU for AM4 if it's enough for your needs and same some money. Or get a AM5 system if you feel the need. It's a bit cheaper to get on it then when I did last year.

240 wouls definitley be fine. I have 360 for 7800X3D and it's very cool.

4K would be nice. Remastered? There's also enhanced mod too. But cool and all as new Crysis 4 in the works

It's a great drive, I have few. It may not be needed per say, though they're fairly priced if you're looking long term longevity wise, sustained performance depending what you may do and random performance is great. If you get one update firmware.

I got Ducky One 3 TKL for good price. Wanted one that comes with Cherry MX Speed Silver switches and it's hot-swap and sturdy. They have different sizes too.
