As an owner of samsung D8000 plasma(2010 model) and panny GT60 (2013 model) ill share what I have observed.
The older samsung is more susceptible to image retention and burn-in then the gt60.
What I have noticed with both of them, especially the older samsung, is that image retention is only...
I don't think it has much to do with sizes.
I think it has more to do with the fact that OLEDs degrade with usage(lose brightness over time).
Well, that happens to pretty much all light sources including LEDs in a backlight of a LCD display, so whats the problem?
The problem is that in an OLED...
I like the idea of a 40" 4k monitor with a quality VA panel, similar ppi as 27" 1440p monitors, I would prefer one with variable refresh rates though :(
Aside from resolution a panny plasma will blow any lcd monitor right out of the water in terms of picture quality...
Many of you are forgetting that high res textures eat up a lot of vram, yet have almost no impact on performance(if you have enough vram).
I've encountered 2 games that require more than 2gb vram @1440p
Skyrim with high res textures
aand total war: Rome2
I'd be surprised if we wont see any...
GURU3D measured 87°C with an infrared camera at the back of the pcb through a hole in the backplate.
It is very likely that the VRM's themselves are over 100°C. AND those measurements were made without any additional voltage at stock clocks.
That is not a good sign for those who want to OC.
IMO...
MSI was the only AIB that I know of that did not voltage lock ANY of their 7950/7970 cards.
Plus their custom cards are usually among the best.
Though buying blindly is always a bad idea since every AIB makes mistakes.
It looks like the gtx780 lightning heatskink which has a different orientation of heatpipes/fins compared to the old twin frozr heatsinks.
That is a good design choice since the hawaii die has a non-square rectangle shape so the design should result in better distribution of heat among multiple...
There are many kinds of VA-panels out there but your assumption is generally false. The highlighted dell monitor uses an AMVA panel. The same goes for the two BenQ GW monitors.
VA-panels may not be perfect for colour critical work(professional video/photo editing).
But IMO the most...
High res textures have very little impact on framerate but they have a huge impact on IQ and they will eat up your vram.
this reminds me of the alleged 640k bill gates quote :thumbsup:
From my own testing Rome 2 can use over 3gb vram @1440p. Skyrim can easily pass 2gb with high res...
so if its 30% faster than a quiet 290X, that would make it ~45% faster than a stock gtx 780 @1440p :
As much as I would love for that to happen it just does not sound realistic
What every single reviewer fails to do is stating the average core clocks for each run.
Not just for the 290X but for all cards.
Nobody wants to know the meaningless boost clocks.
These guys review GPU's for a living and they don't bother stating the actual core clocks!? That is just beyond...
