2k and 4k look quite a bit different on an 80 inch TV

Also keeps lumberjacks from taking smoke breaks.

Micro LED, which is crazy expensive currently.

Really? Cause my detectors do Co and smoke, so I would have thought it was more sophisticated than just particulate matter.

>PSU requirements, case length requirements, cooling requirements, wall power socket requirements, electricity costs and fire hazard status.

Nvidia could've asked for collateral instead.

The C1 is the greatest tv I’ve ever owned, see no point in replacing it as long as it works.

glad you are living life to the fullest

Depending on what you mean by consumer level, microLED isalready available, just not at pricing for us mere mortals.

I have the 77” and it’s a beast. I love this TV

> What the hell am I even supposed to play with this thing?

Fireplace simulator, now with extra heat and possibly flames as well for authenticity.

Yep. This detects the gasses emitted by combustion rather than just the presence of smoke particles.

Nvidia's long con has finally be revealed.

Odyssey G9 users disagree with you :) 5120x1440p is roughly 4K in pixel count

Smoke Detector 2: Electric Boogerloo

i’m pretty sure smoke detectors operate solely by detecting particulate in the air. hence why steam from a shower can set them off. this seems to detect smoke specifically so it wouldn’t be tripped by fog or dust

Yeah but these are electric noses

I'm being somewhat optimistic when I say a few years, but realistically it will probably be another decade.

It sounds like you are describing ghosting which is normal. I have an LG E6 (2016) so it doesn't have the anti burn-in features that the newer ones have. I had it on 100% OLED brightness up until last year when I started noticing the degradation, so now I keep it at 80%. It now has burn-in showing BOTW's hearts in the top left, Splatoon 2's matchmaking screen on the right half, and some strange perfectly vertical bar down the center that I can't explain. I've played both a decent amount but not anything that would be considered abnormal or excessive.

Edit: I just remembered I had posted a picture of it on reddit last year:

The Splatoon matchmaking screen (and other Splatoony stuff) is burned into my OLED TV

From Tom's Hardware: Gabriele Gorla, Director of Engineering at Nvidia, told Igor's Lab that Nvidia buys its 4-to-1 12VHPWR (four eight pins to one 12-pin) power adapters from two companies: Astron and NTK. While both adapters are designed up to the specifications defined by the PCI-SIG standards body, they are still quite a bit different 'inside' as they use slightly different contacts. Astron apparently uses double-slot spring contacts, whereas NTK sticks to a long single-slot spring contact that has lower resistance and it is easier to detach.

According to Igor's Lab, Zotac and Gigabyte have said the adapter from NTK is less prone to failure even after multiple mating cycles. Astron argues, according to Nvidia, that its adapter performs in accordance with specifications (i.e., its resistance is below 1.5 mOhm). Meanwhile, as Igor's Lab points out, Astron's 12VHPWR adapter has its thick 14AWG wires rigidly soldered to 2mm^2 soldered pads, which is a point of failure, especially for contacts on the edges of the adapter.

While Igor's Lab details how to distinguish between adapters from Astron and NTK, it is impossible to tell which of them will ship in a particular box with a GeForce RTX 4090 inside. Meanwhile, the report says that Nvidia will keep using 3-to-1 12VHPWR adapters from Astron and NTK supplied with GeForce RTX 4080, but will only use 2-to-1 12VHPWR adapters from NTK with GeForce RTX 4070 Ti boards.

Went and measured just now, I'm about 27 inches away from my screen sitting normally, 45 inches when leaning back and about 20 inches leaning in.

I've legitimately never noticed a difference in any of those positions. Maybe I need better glasses if you swear you can tell a difference on your 27" one from about 36 inches away? I’m only in my 30s so if you were significantly younger than that or if you don’t need glasses and that might be why lol

If i'm not mistaken, those are called smoke detectors and they've been around forever.

Yeah, maybe don’t take psychedelic drugs in a forest with grizzly bears and wolves.

Ah, thank you. I’ll look for it.

No worries mate

Gamers tend to upgrade their TVs every generation so as to take advantage of new display features.

The burn in is a big problem.
