  1. Aaaand.... it's done. Another topic ruined. It's easy really:

    1. take a topic where you think Andrew is being offensive
    2. start caring
    3. wait

    Guys this is no joke, it really works!! If you're being loud enough, the loyal dog of eoshd (lafilm) will come out of his dungeon and bark at you! You don't see a sight like this every day, so grab your FS7 and take your shots, the world needs to see this! :D

  2. I found a semi-inexpensive fix. The new GTX 960 graphics cards can run up to three 4k monitors at 60Hz. They're $200 so I just went ahead and upgraded.
     

    I think they are the cheapest now with HDMI2.0 support. And while the 970/980 only have encoding support for HEVC, this one also has decoding support. Which brand did you buy?

  3. Yeah, I'm excited for the update as well, but I'm glad to see it isn't out yet, because I'm thinking Samsung is addressing more fixes for the NX1 that many users are experiencing. At least that's my hope!

    What do you mean? It's already downloadable from Samsung's site, it was released hours ago.

  4. This one seems pretty nice. It's 31.5". It uses multistream input though, which isn't a huge deal if you're using one monitor.

    Well, 4K@60Hz via MST is kinda like a hack, I think it's better to choose a monitor with SST, or maybe wait for a good HDMI2.0 monitor. There's the 32 inch Asus PA328Q but it costs a lot. For that you also need a new GPU of course, like the GTX 970/980.

  5. ​Yes. Dell says it can run 2 at 60hz. I ordered a 2nd one so I'll see if thats true Friday.

    ​I'm asking because UHD at 60Hz in a single stream is pretty much on the edge of DP 1.2. Just found this on another forum, it's about IGP-s, and by 4K he means UHD:

    "The main requirement for supporting 4K@60 on DP SST (single-stream transport) is that the core display clock (CDCLK), which is configured by SBIOS, must be set high enough to drive the dot clock required by the mode.  Usually 4K@60 has a 536MHz dot clock, so it requires a 540MHz CDCLK.  If the system OEM did not configure the CDCLK at 540MHz for thermal, power saving, or other reasons, then the system will not be able to drive 4K@60 over a single DP stream. Also, Haswell ULT (-U) and ULX (-Y) are limited to 450MHz and 337MHz CDCLK, so they will not be able to do 4K@60 SST."

    You can't even be sure with dedicated display cards, the drivers and some say even the cables have to be right. I hope DP 1.3 arrives soon, until then, read forums about working setups if you want UHD@60Hz on SST.

  6. Is 4K really usable on 27? I was thinking about the same monitor, but I have 23 inch FHD Dell monitor atm, and scaling is just fine in Windows 7. I don't really want to get my eyes strained when I switch to 4K.

  7. I will believe it when I see it, Samsung needs a group of hackers to provide extra features on a camera? Taking Canon as an example it looks more to me that the features are already there at the start but it's the manufacturer who decides which features will be unlocked and it's the ML team that has unlocked doors that Canon did not want to be opened.

    Yeah, they don't need ML for extra features. However, with ML you can draw a lot more attention.

  8. A bit premature to say Canon is blocking ML on their latest cameras. It's just a new firmware version just not available for download at this moment, I am sure it will be very soon, and ML would be developed for it like all new firmware versions in the past.

    It does look worrying but it's just not clear yet. Let's hope they don't really block ML (it's extremely easy for them to do for the past 5 years btw!)

    You could downgrade earlier, now you can't. And even if this new firmware becomes downloadable, there is a possibility it might not get ML, since 5D3's ML hasn't been updated lately. But I still have hopes, we'll see.
