In other news, I just learned how to use ICC profiles to calibrate monitors. ho lee phuk my Microboard M340CLZ was WAAAAYYY out of whack. Literally lifechanging.

Lol bro. That's what makes TN panels worth buying. Cheap 1440P with 144Hz as long as it's calibrated will still look stunning.

Man I dunno....My TN panel still looks like ass after a calibration. Especially compared to my IPS one.

QDOT isn't even a panel-type. It's a backlight technology. You can have QDOT w/VA, QDOT w/IPS & QDOT w/TN.

lol at meme... Dude you think VA > IPS????

VA is superior to IPS in some ways, like black levels are super inky/deep (because there's minimal to no backlight bleed vs IPS), and it has superior viewing angles. Combined with QDOT backlighting, you get ultra deep blacks with excellent color reproduction. I'm waiting for one of these friggn' companies to get off their asses and produce a 4k 144hz VA or IPS QDOT panel (my holy grail).

Sweet! Also go into your Nvidia desktop/monitor color settings and change it to Nvidia then to 4:4:4. You'll see it under drop down menu.



Positivecrew here's a better look at the setup.

I can't see imgur photos at work. Upload them to here if you can.

[Fivefootkillerz]

Thanks for nothing Timmy. The price is now $119. I really needed that desk. My present desk is a cramped 46". Speakers are practically in my lap.

sorry i only noticed it when i was looking at old purchases

Just wait till you're at home to see them then it's alright.

[Thiiisguy]

quick question.

I have my latest build for a good 3 months now, and bought a acer x34.

the htz for the monitor are 60. but overclockable to 100.


My question is: How bad is overclocking a monitor? I barely started it doing it today and not sure if there are some negatives to it.

[eXistenceLies]

click color and it should have a drop down showing 442 and 44 444 and possibly a few others.

So which one of you CEOs are going to shell out 3k for the Volta Titan?

BRB, selling my PC so I can buy a GPU. Meh, I could probably swing it, but I doubt it'd beat my 2x 1080 Ti in SLI. 12GB HBM2 is giving me a bit of a chub though.

It isn't really overclocking in the true sense of the word. The monitor is really designed to run up to 100hz.. they're just calling it overclocking to sound cool. It's a gimmicky sales tool. Actual monitor overclocking involves patching the pixel clocker, and pushing the monitor incrementally higher into refresh rates it wasn't designed to support.

TL;DR, the x34 is supposed to run at 100hz. You aren't hurting it by doing so.

Inb4 Nvidia release their new GTX1180/1180Ti for $800ish that will cuck this Titan V.

I dont know why they do that to their previous Titans. The Ti version always come close to their current Titan for half the price.

You don't use the tensor cores for gaming so the 1180/1180ti won't have cuda cores.
They are just cannibalizing their own professional lines with this card.

A response to the Vega Frontier Edition perhaps.

I thought the current 1080Ti has 3584 CUDA cores as per specs?

[InstantLoser]

They do. Not sure what Jensen is saying.

[MrJensenn]

Sorry, I meant Tensor cores. Lmao...

[InstantLoser]

If they were like $2000 and were on par with/could beat out 2x 1080 Ti's I might consider getting one. Dat golden shroud.... hnnnngggg...



I could probably still get around $700 for each of my 1080 Ti's (since they both have AIO water coolers) and that'd cover the majority of the price (again if it were $2000 instead of $3000).

but why sell them for a card that isn't suitable to gaming like the Tis are?

Titans are perfectly fine for gaming. Depends on the model, but I had a pair of Titan-X (Maxwell) cards when they came out, and they were in parity with 980 Ti's (didn't OC as well though).

fair enough, but that price though...

Been debating on replacing my Corsair Air 540. At first I loved the cube design, now its started to wear on me for being...a giant cube. Easiest case I've ever built in though and great airflow. All the cases I've been looking at from this year all have horrid airflow with these front panels that block everything. Not sure what to do.

love my air 540 cube. im also not a fan of all these tempered glass case that block fans lmao

how about air 740?

[InstantLoser]

Yeah the price is never worth the performance when compared to the "Ti" series cards. Like Jinda was saying, you can usually get the 1X80 Ti for 1/2 the price of a Titan and get like 95-98% of the performance. Since Titan's are usually crappy overclockers, the Ti cards are actually better.

[viennafat]

lol @ $2,999 price tag for the Titan V.

And I like the "limit 2 per customer".
