    I'm on the latest drivers from nVidia but I'll research what set of drivers that was for 1080Ti, and make sure I'm not on them. Played around with the Overdrive settings on the monitor and caused it to flicker so bad it was nearly impossible to set it back. Had a raging headache by the time I...

    You're running a nVidia card as well. Did you try and enable G-sync in the nVidia control panel? I think I've narrowed down my problem to that. With it enabled, it gives issues, which is expected since it's not a fully tested display from nVidia. They make no guarantees. Sorry for all the...

    Did you have to set anything on the monitor in the on screen display settings? There's like an Overdrive setting, etc under Game Settings.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    Digital Foundry settings posted above, on new UW monitor. I'm having some issues though with 144hz on this new AOC screen, so I'll be trouble shooting it. This was just at 60hz, and after playing on a TN panel at 144hz capability, it was pretty jarring on those long swooping camera motions. :(

    Did you have any issues with 60hz vs 144hz? When I set the monitor to 144hz in the nVidia Control Panel, I'll start to get long black flickers. But this goes away if I set it back to 60hz? Not sure what's up. I google, and plenty of people have the issue with different monitors, but not this one...

    Meant to say about a cup of coffee per serving. My bad. My jam lately has been Torani flavored syrup and a plain sugar free energy drink. I love the Ruby Red Grapefruit flavored syrup best.

    Gotta find the right flavor. There's like a million flavors, and so you find the one that's pretty good. Bangsta Berry and Fruit Punch both are not too bad.

    Lol. Bangs and others have 300mg of caffeine and are easy. Your favorite white Monster has 160mg which is on par with a cup of coffee. You're on the low end of energy drinks bro.

    My buddy lives near one, and his store, according to the website doesn't have it in stock. Shipping it to me might eliminate it's benefit though too. :( I'll just keep updating Amazon, as this isn't a huge priority, but I've determined that the sub $500 ultra-wides will meet my needs for the...

    Nice. About to buy that AoC from that one seller for $437, and use hotel points to buy it. Lol Since it's still Prime, if I have backlight bleed or dead pixels I can return it. Edit: FUCK! That seller is gone now. :(

    I'd want 75-100hz and at least G-sync compatible. I should just go to nVidia's list, as I'm sure the number of ultra-wides on that list is extremely limited. I'm team green all the way. So it's Freesync, good response times, 144hz, all for under $500? What's the catch? It's not G-sync, and on...

    @Vorph Not to derail the HZD thread further, is this the older model LG that was pretty good? I was surprised to see it for just $500.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    That's what I hear, but I couldn't be bothered with the story. I've never been into the Lore, and usually the Lore is terrible so it holds out and skipping the story is just what everyone does. Not the case in FF14, but I wasn't able to break that habit. I should go back and watch the story on...

    I'm not at all against the idea of going with a single ultra-wide screen, such as the one Mist posted above, but let's get real here, what's the benefit? From a purely technical standpoint, for less than $1k, I can get two 27" displays, 144hz, 1440p res, G-Sync, bezel-less so while they are 2...

    I've skipped every cut scene through all the MSQ up until the latest expansion. I remember I had pre-ordered it but then canceled the pre-order and quit before it ever dropped. I'm hearing though that ShB is one hell of an expansion, and totally worth it.

    Seriously considering going with an ultra-widescreen monitor in my next build/setup. What I worry is that without a lot of futzing around I won't be able to have the dual-screen feel. Playing games in ultra-wide doesn't really matter to me? So I'm literally talking myself out of it as I type...

    Yep, a Unifi AP just hooked hard line into a mini switch, who's hardlined into my existing router. I forgot they made their own Mesh system, and so will take a look. I don't mind having all wireless, especially if I can get 5ghz, as the speeds are pretty nice, but having some hard lines for...

    Odd screen shot of my house, but the black line indicates the front door on the right side, and then into the living room, down a hall and back up into the bedrooms. The bottom right is the kitchen/bathroom where Wi-Fi isn't as necessary. So in a node situation put one at the top of each side of...

    Anyone else love milk? We always have milk on hand because of my kid's love for cereal. They don't drink it that much anymore, but I absolutely love it.

    Start looking at home depot and Best Buy to figure out what kind of fridge you want. $3500 is damn insane to pay for a fridge but I suppose if you want a video screen on the door? Or the door that is actually 2 doors? Lots of different shit out there.

    Omg these were so good! They are not on the menu anymore around me but you can still have them customize a burger to make it if you are willing to pay the crazy price of like $8.
