Chris TitusHOST
For the most part, everything works.
Chris TitusHOST
There's some features that are missing, such as FreeSync and other things, and that's coming up in the next couple months.
Chris TitusHOST
Hopefully that gets resolved.
Chris TitusHOST
But overall, the performance isn't the same as Windows.
BobHOST
So I will definitely buy this one now and do a review of it, checking to see if it's retro-compatible with all the other stuff we do, so thank you for checking that out for me.
BobHOST
But one thing to note is that at specifically 480p resolutions, VESA VRR didn't work, but AMD FreeSync did.
BobHOST
And I'm interpreting that as it does work with 1080p and 4K, just not with 480p, which is understandable because that's a weird scenario that most devices wouldn't have that kind of resolution with VRR enabled.
BobHOST
But okay, that's fine.
Chris TitusHOST
Just switch your distro at that point.
Chris TitusHOST
So Fedora 29, I'm not really pleased with when it comes to I needed to install AMD graphics drivers and the latest and greatest kernel doesn't support like FreeSync and a lot of the performance for Vulkan, I'm not getting from this driver.
Chris TitusHOST
If you guys have any input on this, please let me know in the comments.
Chris TitusHOST
If I'm completely off base, this is just my opinion, what I found.
Chris TitusHOST
And here is what I'm getting on a CL info on my Vegas 64 card.
Chris TitusHOST
you'll see a lot of errors down here at the bottom and in the middle here.
Chris TitusHOST
And I know it's just missing some stuff, obviously like FreeSync and other things aren't compatible with the Linux driver.
Chris TitusHOST
And I'm just not getting the full performance that I should be getting.
Ara DerderianHOST
Slick Deal says it's about $400 less than the next best price it found elsewhere.
Ara DerderianHOST
You can get 120 hertz 4K panel, Dolby Vision, four HDMI 2.1 ports, and support for both G-Sync and FreeSync.
Ara DerderianHOST
So it's a strong pick for gamers too.
Ara DerderianHOST
Slick Deals posted it on October 19th.
Michael HighamHOST
And like FSR exists in so many different forms.
Michael HighamHOST
It's like FreeSync in the same way for monitors.
Michael HighamHOST
This is more just like confirmation that they are working on technologies that will help boost performance.
Michael HighamHOST
And for folks who don't know what any of these SSRs are and SSRIs and...
Al GriffinGUEST
Yeah, this also supports 4K 120 hertz input.
Al GriffinGUEST
And it has a FreeSync Pro.
Al GriffinGUEST
Let me see.
Al GriffinGUEST
Yeah, it has a FreeSync Premium VRR for PC gaming.
Michelle MadisonHOST
It has
John JacobsonHOST
FreeSync and G-Sync and 120 hertz.
John JacobsonHOST
They're only like $1,000 now for a 65-inch TV.
John JacobsonHOST
You know, when you go up to 77 and 80, whatever, it jumps big time in price.
Michelle MadisonHOST
And if you look at 85, forget it.
Michelle MadisonHOST
So, but honestly, like my solid go-to TV is just a 65 inch OLED.
Michelle MadisonHOST
And the new ones have, like you said, FreeSync GC, they have 120.
Michelle MadisonHOST
It makes such a difference.
Adam Patrick MurrayHOST
Yeah.
Adam Patrick MurrayHOST
Uh, another change is that it went from a, a FreeSync premium panel to a FreeSync premium pro panel and that the only reason why is because of HDR support.
Adam Patrick MurrayHOST
The, the-
Russ CrandallHOST
Mm

All three models offer native 4K/120 hertz playback.
speaker_0HOST
Gaming support extends to variable refresh rate, VRR, auto low latency mode, ALLM, and AMD FreeSync compatibility.

Built-in Google TV provides access to streaming services and content aggregation, while audio is delivered through dual 12-watt Harman Kardon speakers supported by DTS Virtual X processing.

The Xgimi Horizon 30 series are available from November, but are available for pre-order now.
BobHOST
You basically just leave it on frame lock and gen lock like you did before, and then just below that set the VRR format option exactly like you used to.
BobHOST
But if your TV has true VRR capabilities, you set the HDMI mode itself to sync lock and VRR, which is typical HDMI modes, and then just below that, set it to either FreeSync or VESA.
BobHOST
Then this new mode uses frame length changes to follow the input, which results in no frame drops and lower VRR display latency.
BobHOST
So this is a huge deal if you have any kind of display that is true VRR capable, because you basically just get a completely free upgrade to the signal.
