I'm curious about AMD's ray tracing implementation and how it works. Microsoft and Sony been pro ray tracing with their next gen consoles. If it's a software implementation that will work well with any card, nVidia's RTX implementation will be dead.
And I do believe consoles will drive this tech.
My specs:
Ryzen 5950x @ boosting 5ghz, Gigabyte x570 Aorus Master, 128gb G.Skill Trident Neo pc3600 ram, nVidia RTX 5080, SoundBlasterX G6, Samsung 980 Pro m.2 1TB and Hynix m.2 1TB storage SSD. Custom watercooling loop.
OS: CachyOS because fuck Windows!
Derpsole: Nintendo Switch, Derpstation 5 Pro

FALD looks bad when the screen is black and there are small lit areas. You suddenly see the entire "local" area light up. I have OCD when it comes to these things, and this annoys me to no end. In my previous LG television, it was among the first things I disabled. Can't complain about the OLED though.
Micro LED is clearly the future, where you get self-emissive LEDs, with much, much higher lifespan of the LEDs, so you have none of the retention issues of OLEDs. But that is a while still away.

Before I bought this monitor, I read in to every upcoming panel and technology I could find. There is no argument, when Micro LED finally matures it will be awesome. I have my doubts regarding the nest couple of years. Until then, sadly, the only decent monitor, that has HDR and is good for gaming otherwise was this. I debated for 2 months whether to buy it, then they slashed the price to around 60% (still very high) and bought it.
The halo is bad on the desktop. In gaming it is not apparent at all - and I too am very finicky about these kinds of things. The less you look for it on purpose, the less you see it. There are very rare cases it appears even in gaming. Rare and specific conditions have to be met.
But a game lik AssCreed Odyssey really sell HDR (I have that on PS4 pro as well), but the the way a PC can drive it is a whole new ballpark.

You are retarded! I bet you still have a TN garbage.
BTW, that’s expensive 5000$ Apple R display is a FALD.

1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB

@Amadeus
~ $331
It's not much, but you gotta take into accounts these things:
1) US\RUB exchange rate is atrocious.
2) I had to lower the price coz the BIOS switch got broken (it fell off), so the card essentially has one bios now. Unless you are skilled enough to fix it. Either way the warranty might be fucked coz it is a physical damage.
3) You can get a used 1080ti (mining) here for the same price. Yeam I know, mining and all, but it all depends on whether miners properly took care of these cards. Quite a few actually do.
4) Some guys were already selling 2070 at approximately the same price but without any damage=> warranty was fine.
1) Lenovo Legion 7 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3080 16Gb, 32Gb DDR4, SSD 1TB +2TB
2) SFFPC (streaming via Moonlight+ Sunshine)

There's a major game release coming, a game that sells cards. Between announcement and actual availability we're talking about a few weeks. So by the time the cards are actually properly in stock and proper benchmarks are avialable, you're too late for that game release. Either AMD know they have shit or they are retarded.

On tech forums I frequent people are already thinking about buying this or that purely for Cyberpunk. Like a console has system seller games, PC has GPU seller games. It would be really stupid of AMD to not lift on this hype, unless they know already they can't compete.

It's just not smart business.
Which AMD knows. It doesn't bode too well.
Zen 3 hype tho!

I think a lot of humpers are upgrading for Cyberpunk as well (I am, in any case ). There wasn't really a need to upgrade the last few years, because of a lack of quality titles mostly. But now, with the new consoles and a huge game release, it makes perfectly sense (imo)
I'm impatient too. I know that waiting another year will probably be smarter, but I won't be able to wait that long. Unless the game turns out to be horrible, but I kind of doubt that 
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.

Who says Cyberpunk needs an upgrade, really? Yes, if you need the RTX effects, which will probably look really good, the rest should run perfectly fine on older hardware maybe not with maxed settings. At least I wish it will.

Sometimes i wish more did like Crytek did for Crysis, and this would be the right one for it if you ask me.

The body is craving for a complete upgrade but the wallet is already envisioning me trying to play Cyberpunk on the oc'd 2500k and 970. One last effort buddies, you can do it. I actually believe it wouldn't be too unthinkable to expect a fluctuating-yet-reasonable framerate at 1080p/PS4-like settings, which would be enough for me all things considered. We'll see I guess!

Moving this thread to the hardware zone too.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."
