  1. I love space games and keyboard and mouse any day for me. Game just needs to be made well. Just go reminded about Anthem with it's trash mouse controlls.
  2. Hmm sadly with every ISP issues will pop eventually. Well it will be interesting to see, I've orderes their 5G (2TB/mon, 200Mbps) home internet because it's the only option for me since no fiber option. On regular line I'm stuck at 20/2Mbps thar costs same and that is a no. So we'll see how that will work, the technician came to test signal strength before realization and it's solid. Waiting for them to come and all. I'll have 2 week test period.
  3. Well it could be comforting to be able to have signal literally anywhere for emergency. Can't complain there.
  4. Well as for Samsung since their QD-OLED is in that 34" UW monitor, the was the so called leftover size from huge motherglass that usually is for larger TVs so they fit few there. That's what I've hear and seen, not sure about different OLED tech on same motherglass. And yes QD-OLED is more difficult to produce than regular OLED is for now. So TVs are different market, much more are demanded and sold in that market, also pixels are larger too. Smartphones are also another market on their own too. They're different OLED in a way, can use different sub-pixel layout, higher PPI hides that otherwise it could cause text clarity issue vs regular RGB one. In another way is that phones are also tiny vs TVs so even if more would have yield issues they can still produce way more in a single go anyway. In the end TVs and smartphones are way more consumer market than monitors, much more are demanded and sold there. Also monitors use way more static content which is rather bad for OLED with burn-in issues, to add to that people keep monitors for longer than the other two as well. Seems QD-OLED is improving that. So making more regular sized monitor is yet another category that needs to be make for mass manufacture, along with new QD-OLED tech along. All that higher expected starting price being a new thing on the market that is not as huge as TV and phone, while also yields still improving. Really for first QD-OLED monitor it was expected to cost much more yet it didn't which is great. Now only to wait for the tech to catch on for a while and we'll be getting amazing monitors.
  5. No, maybe get 42" LG or if too big wait I guess. Doubt we'll see 27" 4K though, 32" seems to be more aimed at.
  6. Can depend on user but it can be quite noticeable though. Maybe for games with cap like so 240Hz is great, really a great 240Hz can be more clear too.
  7. Because it's a new tech, lower yields even though improved but still, manufacturing capacity, current format being left over from giant motherglass displays are cut, general world price hikes. Also I'm sure one of reasons to get like 32" 4K 240Hz and such is to wait for new GPUs and DP 2.0 that are to come soon as well as prices to not be insane. I too don't like those nonsense 42"/48"/49" super wide/45" UW/55" curved monitors, I can fit few of those on my table, but that's not the point. I don't want UW and curved displays, also no huge displays. On top they all have low resolution.
  8. Yeah back before I was looking for 24" 1440p IPS with 144Hz but it doesn't exist. Good that we have 49" super wide and repurposed 55" and so TVs for monitors...
  9. Ahh so they're preparing this for future CoD game cool. But still cool to see especially if it's to be as cheap. Would be interesting if we'd go back to physical media. So price wise it's potentially for consumer side too. But yeah we'll see.
  10. I mean if shell says S1 probably so. Cable was probably modded and maybe changed but that's just a cable. Who knows weight wise you can compare on their site same as dimentions. Even though it may be weight modded dimentions can still tell you. But shell is engraved with name. I have regular S1 and S1-C though.
  11. Hm whatever. I'd like to see them not have hardware issues on their regular phones so improving qc first. Second is longer software support. Samsung puts them to shame.
  12. In time we will see benchmarks synthetic and real use. I'd opt for one with heatsink why not. I'd expect it better than mobo covers. Also this one is much more efficient too. Especially good for laptops.
  13. Always interesting to see new research in battery tech. I really hope we see something new in consumer market soon enough though. For things like cars I can see taking more time and all but for smartphones would be great to see a replacement.
  14. While this one is not out yet, I'd expect quite better. Just based on I/O specs it's quite better.
  15. I'm glad they're normalizing price more for Pro lineup. Yeah looking forward to see reviews too like QD1 for sure. Though I would still expect some decent improvements in some instances though. We'll see. I mean even we have some PCIe 5.0 SSDs announced to be released soon enough, makes sense to like future proof it per say for new platforms. I see it so it's ready on the market so when a new buyer is getting a new platform they have a new SSD too along. But yes not everything solely on max bandwidth in high QD like QD1 improvements is great to see. Who knows maybe they'll release PCIe 5.0 much sooner within half year or something. On AM5 yes it was mentioned. Doubt we'd see anyone revealing new SSDs. What I wonder is do they plan to release their Z NAND SSD for consumers one day.
  16. They should still benefit as it's more to do with better NAND and controller optimization then raw maximum bandwidth.
  17. I didn't see a post about so here it is. In short, this is an PCIe 4.0 M.2 NVMe TLC SSD: - with sequential r/w 7450MB/s & 6900MB/s with 1400K and 1550K IOPS with Samsung claiming random performance increase by 55%, while also using 50% less power. - their in house controller - 1GB cache per 1TB storage - encryption AES 256-bit Full Disk Encryption, TCG/Opal V2.0, Encrypted Drive (IEEE1667) - offered in 1TB/2TB/4TB models for $179/$309/TBA next year - endurance in TBW 600TB, 1,200TB, 2,400TB - warranty 5 years, or TBW (whichever comes first) - there will be a heatsink versions too (regular has nickel coating on the controller) Quotes My thoughts While a bit bumped not PCIe 5.0 which I expected to see, it seems their in house controller for consumer side isn't ready I take it. We don't know. Maybe they may launch it sooner after this one even who knows. Because we know they have enterprise PCIe 5.0 SSD and controller so. Now, while it's not PCIe 5.0 what is interesting to me is seeing that random I/O performance improvement by a very good margin. Really currently a good focus on, while sequential is great random is as important if not more for general use. It will still take time for DirectStorage to catch up too. Even still this is a good one.

  18. I guess something in line what we may expect with said IPC uplift and known clocks. Now to see games. To add vs 3D cache one too. Can't to see that one.
  19. Hmm ok I expected some pics whatever. Soon reveal can't wait to see them tested. Definitley 3D cache one eventually.
  20. I mean it's still sample-and-hold too. Also no strobing. But yeah in the end it's not a monitor.
  21. Who didn't see this coming? I mean on consoles also it's the most ridiculous situation price wise for games. Also in general people don't want to pay more than $60 for AAA game in general. While not even every is worth it be it full of bugs micro trash or just a bad game.
  22. I've hear about this before, yeah can only imagine this being everywhere and people simply messing with it and everything goes wrong.
  23. Now do this with Samsung Odyssey Ark vertically. You can run in them.
  24. Definitely wait. Like that Asus over expensive joke is a meme at this point. We already see how FALD displays are so overpriced vs OLED that it's an ignore for me. Displayport 2.0 displays will come soon. Excited to see those. Hopefully more QD-OLED formats in flat form from brands since Samsung has to curve everything.
