Note that 1660 ti and 1060 are from an entirely different generation of product; one is Turing the other Pascal.

Usually, fundamental rights cannot be "sold"

It's really quite perverse if you think about it.

At $200, that's a great deal.

It's IPS, so contrast is quite poor but I'd consider it a great stop-gap until OLEDs are feasible to buy for you.

Make sure you set the overdrive to "Fast" for the optimal VRR experience.

I’ll use the rest of my budget to invest in some Ergotron arms

Note that the "Amazon Basic" branded monitor arm is an Ergotron one but a lot cheaper with no obvious quality deficit. It's currently holding the monitor I'm typing this on ;)

Oh, indeed! They're under different orgs; that confused me.

Are you sure you replied to the correct comment?

[–] Atemu@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that has been the largest pain point for all these years I heard.

Nvidia has been slowly trying to open a little over the years; first GBM support in the proprietary driver then the open OOT module and finally GSP firmwares for the kernel; allowing an OSS kernel module to exist.

The OSS graphics community has obviously shown that it doesn't want Nvidia's open module (which is tied to the proprietary driver anyways) and would rather build out its own OSS drivers atop an adapted Nouveau/NOVA. Perhaps Nvidia finally realised this?

I'm sceptical too but for now this appears to be an actually good move from Nvidia?

Not that I can tell; just an explanation how df works on Linux and macOS.

[–] Atemu@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure it's even inside a secure element; inaccessible to even the OS.

Why is this being downvoted? It's clearly labelled as Japanese; if you don't want to see foreign languages, filter them out.

VA has historically been terrible for high framerate, decent for colour accuracy and great for image quality (contrast is so much better on VAs compared to IPS).

VA panels with decent rise/fall times and not too much overshoot are far and few between. You really have to do your research and even then it'll be close or even slightly over the refresh cycle target. Only Samsung's more recent panels are actually good for high refresh; incredibly good actually.
