SimpleG Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 So I am primarily a PC gamer and do much of my gaming on 2 monitors , a high refresh 1440p g sync and a 4k next to it. My PS4 has been hooked to the 4k for awhile now but last night I was bored listening to some music and decided to hook my PS4 to my Samsung Q . As much I hate the low fps of the PS4, the HDR is a god dam haymaker to the face. I am really disappointed in myself for missing out on it for so long ,its really pushing me to skip the 3080 and just buy a PS5 or XsX . PC games skipping HDR is travesty and really needs to be implemented better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Vic20 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 100% agreed! Not only do more games need it implemented PROPERLY, but Windows 10 needs to fix how horrid it looks when HDR is turned on at the OS level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 It was REALLY bad a couple years ago but it has at least gotten better, most of the major games seem fine. I think it’s almost at the point where you won’t have to worry about it much for new releases soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Most monitors don't have it incorporated so you mean Acer / your monitor of choice needs to up its HDR game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dre801 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Agreed. They need to take a break from pushing higher refresh rates and get more on board with HDR. Playing Gran Turismo Sport with HDR is eyegasmic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not what I'm implying. I'm referring to PC monitors that keep getting higher and higher refresh rates. We need more HDR capable PC monitors to hit the market.

Dre801 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 And you have one of a short list of monitors that does that. Maybe people just want affordable HDR capable 60-120Hz monitors. We need more of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is saying that manufacturers have been focusing on upping refresh rates (evidence: all the high refresh rate monitors) but have put little effort into HDR (evidence: the handful of HDR monitors you just mentioned). His point is priorities of the manufacturers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue with a lack of (real) HDR monitors, afaik, is weird VESA standard certifications compared to TVs, not a lack of focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
