Ugh, tearing.

VSync on, always.

[–] Egonallanon@feddit.uk 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's what variable refresh rate monitors are for.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

As if I'm going to sit at a desk with a tiny-ass monitor when I could relax on the sofa with my cats and play some video games in surround sound.

Most decent TVs have it built in now. Consider getting one with it in the future.

But that's also a smart TV ridden with ads, a sluggish UI and a boot time slower than the average ad break, then ugh

Don’t connect it to the internet. It ain’t that hard bud. I got a 5 year old LG CX and it’s still fast and snappy.

Somewhat, but some will constantly complain that they're not connected and/or you did not register them and link them to an account. You can set them up and then remove them from the network, but that won't stop them from complaining. Combine that with sluggish UI (or a UI that's only usable when you wait for the network timeout)

[–] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Mine doesn’t do that. All you have to do is not agree to the terms of service agreements. It will still allow you to update the tv and you get zero pop ups. At least this is how it works with LGs. Don’t spread misinformation like that because none of that is true for most high end smart TVs. A cheap Walmart TV probably does that.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Any brands or models you recommend?

Also, not sure how my walls plan on getting bigger, but who knows

Most OLED TVs have it and higher end Samsungs, LGs, and Sonys have it.

Matter of preference. I can't stand the input lag

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Sixteen milliseconds ain't what's holding you back, fam.

[–] Skipcast@lemmy.world -4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

60 fps has insane input lag when you're used to 120+

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Human response time is on the scale of 200 ms. 8 ms is not messing with your game, champ.

[–] Skipcast@lemmy.world -4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

When did I mention reaction times? Maybe it says more about you than me if you can't feel a difference between 60 and 120 fps

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago

You can feel a difference between 120 fps and 60 fps visually but that doesn't mean it has to do with reaction time.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The fact that you buy into the marketing says all that needs to be said.

[–] Skipcast@lemmy.world -4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Do you mainly use a controller when playing games? If so I can understand how you wouldn't notice due to controllers having less precise controls compared to kbm

Alright you're just baiting at this point. Blocked, thanks for playing

I love it when the trash takes itself out
