Grats. ZHU,JIAJIONG LLC is totally going to deliver a legit card.
This nonsense is why I realllllly don’t like buying anything valuable on amazon. They pretty much encourage scammers.

It shouldn’t even take 10 seconds to realize that $200 below MSRP on a card that regularly goes $200 over MSRP is kinda sus.
Yea hopefully he can cancel it, but if its a new or barely used Amazon account that all of a sudden got 600$ in giftcards, Amazon would think HE is the one that is sus

God damn it.

i canceled it.

Well, I bought a RTX 5070 for $550 from BestBuy.com in May, so I didn't think it's completely unreasonable to find something at MSRP. I ended up returning it at that time because I had buyer's remorse.

TBF, the seller did say the actual Sapphire. But when I looked on the invoice, it was some chinese company.

Since there was small monitor derail here, I might as well ask this. I'd like to use my LG C2 42" for my PC and also my PS5. Would it matter at all which hdmi input either device in connected too? The TV has the eARC port, but I wouldn't care about that since I'd just use the optical out to get sound from PS5 to my DAC.

Are you using an HDMI 2.1? Youd need that if you want to go over 60 fps.

Also, I'm on the phone with Amazon and they said they're going to honor the $530 price for a REAL 9070 XT. Woohoo.

All the LG OLEDS support 120hz on all the hdmi ports. I think LG is the only company that does this. One reason I didn't buy a Samsung or Sony is because they only support it on 2 of the 4 ports. My C2 42" does 120hz on my 4090. The B4 77" in the living room does up to 144hz on all 4 HDMI ports but the PS5 Pro only does up to 120hz.

just make sure to turn deep hdmi or some shit on for each port, it should prompt you when it detects the console and enables HDR, 120 hz. You also want to set the HDR to game optimizer so it doesn't try to do any frame interpolation. I also turn on LLM. There are tons of youtube videos on how to config an LG OLED for PC and PS5, I have mine that way and it works fine. It also works fine with modern HDMI 2.1 switchers, since I have so many devices I have PS5, Series X into 2 ports, eARC into soundbar on HDMI 3, and a 4 port HDMI switcher on HDMI 4 which is connected to switch 1, switch 2, PC, and xbox 360. All do 4k/HDR/120hz just fine.

Nice thing about PC nowadays is at least half of the games let you specify which monitor to output to, in case you have a primary "work" screen and a secondary LG OLED "game" screen.

If you want to here is a reddit for setting up LG TVs for PC/PS5/XBOX gaming etc. Lots of technical stuff and settings like editing EID etc.

The e-arc port sends audio delay information back to the previous device, so If the TV has any input lag it will compensate for it.

My older TV had enough of a delay where it was noticeable, people speaking look slightly off because their mouth movements didn't quite match with what they were saying. I haven't bought a TV in over a decade so I don't know if input lag is still a thing with new TVs.
