Damned! My belinea 19 still have a futur with me  :(

 

Thanks SuDoKu!

Posted

If i well understand SuDoKu, it's not for tomorrow i'll fly with a 4k (i don t play loto). I'm looking for imersive hardware....And occulust solution seam to be late.  :unsure:

VR it's the future for play with inmersion, I'm sure, but not now. I think that at the end of this year, maybe, we will have news about new VR systems, Sony, OR, and other enterprise are working in his VR proyects,  I guess that they see potential market, and $$$...but now not the best option to play at all games.

 

4k will be the future, in 10 years, not now.  
I have one 1080p TV from +6 years, In my country the TV transmit at 720p, only we can use all 1080p potential via blueray, PC or MKV films, not more.
 
To play with PC, you will need to pay +1000€ in hardware (high end CPU, and 2 x R9 290x or GTX980...and without 60 fps)
To see videos, TV or multimedia,...ups...we do not have these now....
So, Why 4k?...Only to spend money...and a good marketing rear of these
 
better than 4k, a biggest and good 1080p screen, that you can use with your PC and like TV without problems. The middle of price, and we have a very good hardware now with 1080p panels.
 
And sry for my English, again :(

So, i 've to find a good 1080 screen. Cause, play with a 19 is not immersive.

Another possibility would be a Monitor with a resolution of 2560x1440. Maybe someone with such a monitor and a similar Setup like you have can give any hints about performance. The GTX 770 should be able to drive that resolution just fine,but I can't tell about how it will run at highest settings etc.

One can also up the resolution via Nvidia's DSR setting as well, of course if using Nvidia graphics card.

 

I have a 28" Samsung 144 hz monitor (1920x1080), but can run higher resolutions using DSR.

I've got an 1440p monitor and it was a huge step forward from 1080p. I've been runnig it with a GTX 780 and now GTX 970. Both cards run BOS on ultra settings at 50 fps near ground up to 100fps + high in the air. A single GTX 770 should come 10-15% behind. It can be tested thanks to DRS before actually buing such panel. BOS is more dependant on CPU speed anyways.

Just people should make sure their panel of choice has 10bit colors (to distinguish different shades of gray), low latency and best if 120Hz+ refresh rate (to see movement smooth).

Have dell 30, samsung 30, both awesome at 2560x1600, ultra, 40min, average 55-60 fps

May be the ASUS 27" ROG 2560x1440 is a good alternative?

I have this monitor and its much better then the 4k I had prior. G-Sync is amazing for games like these.

Well, just thinking about buying a ASUS ROG SWIFT PG278Q...  I will have problems with a ASUS Poseidon GTX780?  :)

S!

 

You should be fine, if I turn off SLI and run BoS with just one GTX 780, I get about 50 FPS on my 3440x1440 (21:9) Monitor. So a normal 1440p Monitor should be fine.

I also have that display. The bump in pixel density from 1080p monitor is super nice and g-sync eliminates any tearing without using v-sync. The gtx 780 will probably have no problems running BOS above 60fps, I think you will be bottlenecked by your cpu, not gpu. 

 

But it seems like there is some quality control issues, I had some inversion artifacts show up on the display after using it for a while and reading online it seems many other had the same problem. I sent it on RMA and got a new one within a week that been working perfectly since October......knocking on wood...

I almost walked out of the store with a 28 inch 4k monitor a couple hours ago, but was a little concerned that it would bog down my single Radeon R9 290 OC.  Now I'm leaning more toward 2560 x 1440.  Thanks for the info, y'all.

A 4k monitor might be pushing it and every time newer games come out you might find you're having to upgrade your card more often.

 

I have  2560X1440 and a 2560x1600 monitor (all Hazro). I prefer the latter as I find that little bit more vertical resolution is nicer in a flight sim. The pixels will be much smaller though and can make spotting contacts a little harder than on a 1080p monitor. 

 

My card is a 780 GTX and it runs BOS on Ultra with zero problems :)

hi all, i have an lg ultrawide 21:9 ratio monitor and love it, find it very immersive with the extra wide view

 

um95 at 3440 x 1440

 

i have a brand new comp system with nvidia 970 card but all runs super smooth

 

regards, Ron

I finaly bought BENQ BL 3200 PL. I'm waiting for it. Hope it'll more immersive than my 19'...and my gtx770 will be enought.

Well, so much for priorities.  Next thing I knew, I was connecting my new LG 27EA83-D via displayport.  Looks awesome, BOS runs super smooth @ 2560 x 1440 with max settings.  

 

Oh, and my wife thanks you for posting this thread.   :cool:

Resolution 2560 x 1440 is absolutely great in combination with G-sync, I run it also with a 780GTX.

2560 is said to be damn nasty with Microsoft Office (letters too small). How about that?

I scanned through several 4K reviews. All testers seem to want to test Ultra settings and max antialiasing and come to conclusion 4K is not yet ready for gaming and isngle cards give less than 30 fps.

That is so universally stupid.

With smaller pixels and bigger images a) antialiasing is less necessary and b) antialiasing will cost more performance.

 

Supersample antialias basically works by rendering a higher resolution image and scaling down.

Drop the ultra quality requirement and 4K gaming is quite possible. If your card can run the game at 4xSSAA it can run 4K without any antialiasing as well. So you can test right away by enabling 4xSSAA in drivers.

 I will just get a nice Samsung 32" TV monitor at  1900x 1080p and enjoy  with same settings. I limit the game to 30fps and save processing power.

4K isn't there yet. G-Sync and Free Sync are AMAZING. Also 120+ Hz is the way to to go. If you wanna spend a lota money a ROG swift or the new ACER are going to be great choices.

I'm running a 4K monitor and yes, it's very demanding on the GPU. It will probably take something like a new GTX Titan X to run games at Ultra, 4K and 60 FPS. Rise of Flight isn't as demanding as BoS and it looks incredible at 3840x2160. BoS has some problems setting this input so I haven't been able to run a good test yet. It looks fantastic and you can even read the small print on the cockpit gauges without zooming in.

A great solution for most games though is to simply run them at 2560x1440 and let the monitor upscale them. This looks very good, maybe indistinguishable from 4K. A single GTX 980 will run DCS like this and max settings. 4K/UHD is what you'll see new high end displays at. Even if your hardware isn't up to the full res yet it could be worth the investment because you can always just upscale the image.

You can fix this in Windows Control Panel / Hardware / Display Edited by SharpeXB

As for DSR my own experience with it on my last 1080p display was disappointing. Even at 4.0x which is a huge performance hit, the equivalent of running 4K, it doesn't give much improvement on its own. Test running it without AA and you'll still see quite a jagged image. For the performance hit you could run very high AA at 1080p and get a stellar image and a much higher FPS. All it's doing is sending a higher res image and down sampling which is really costly. Plus it will necessitate running "Full Screen" which can cause BoS to crash and other games run much more smoothly without full screen set.

Are there any G-Synch monitors with IPS panel on the market already?

Thanks!

Hi all,

  Im new here so I will throw In my two cents.  I recently bought a 34 in super wide LG Curved monitor thinking I am going to upgrade my old PC this year.  Before I was running a 30 inch and everything ran at 60 fps.  Having put so much demand now on my old hardware everything now runs at 30 fps. I'm playing at 3440x1440  While I find the gameplay acceptable, I have had to give up some eye candy to make it playable.  Yes, I love having a stonking big monitor but be aware, we have to feed the beast.  So as one poster put it, 4k... maybe in ten years...

 

Here are my specs

i7 950 3.06 @4.0Ghz

EVGA 580 GTX

DDR3 PC 12800 x 16 Gigs

Asus P6X58D

LG 34UC97 Curved

Ultra Wide 3440 x 1440
