Nvidia FINALLY FIXED THEIR GPUS!!! (not really, lol) 

2 things: 1. Unfortunately, Sons of the Forest doesn’t actually have frame generation, just FSR 3 upscaling. My bad there. I assumed too much there. 2. Next gen Ryzen CPUs will most likely be called 9000

Where's the part about Nvidia fixing their gpus, what a fucking clickbait

"Golden Rabbit" sounds like a powerful, exotic drug you'd buy in Thailand 😂

honestly I don't mind the nvidia control panel. it's old but it's not bloatware through the roof and it works

Amd actually cut 7700xt price yesterday to 420$ so it's not 450$ anymore.

Sons of the forest doesn't have framegen, it is just the FSR 3 upscaler.

I just do not ever see myself being able to spend $400+ on a gpu. Used gpu market is my happy place

I am offended.

As long as you update the BIOs on a AM5 motherboard you shouldn’t have any issues

Bought my IPS 1440p 8 years ago for ~$500. It's 60 Hz SDR, as the high refresh rate displays, and HDR waren't really a thing back then, but has really good color reproduction. Gonna wait till the burn-in issue is solved on OLEDs and for the prices to get down before by one so it can last me for decade or so...

AMD is often characterized as playing catch-up with nVidia, but on the software UI end it's absolutely the other way around. The adrenaline software is just stellar, nVidia has a lot of catching up to to do.

00:03 AMD's new GPU, the 7900 gr, offers decent performance and pricing 02:08 Nvidia GPUs and AMD Ryzen CPUs updates 06:15 Nvidia's new app no longer requires an account to log in, making it easier to access and update drivers. 08:17 Nvidia has released a new app that consolidates control panel and driver updates. 12:15 Microsoft might be working on a super resolution system to rival DLSS and FSR. 14:25 Nvidia upscaled image to match monitor size 18:11 Xbox's distribution of games is causing legal concerns. 19:57 Upcoming upgrades for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation VR2. 23:40 OLED monitor worth it? 25:27 Nvidia consolidated control panel and GeForce experience into one app

Still have my CRT monitor , What's OLED ?

as a 42C2 user, YES, oled is a peak of gaming and movie bluray watching on PC

What clickbait lol they improved control panel and it was not even problem unless someone care about control panel design, launch it daily and spent hours in it.

From what I can tell the new Nvidia App still doesn't have overclocking options so it's still useless.

Shit tier bait

Would love an OLED Monitor but atm they are just way way out of my price range. Also i feel now with my RTX 3070 i need to stick with 1080p monitor until i can upgrade.

Used a LG c2 42” as a monitor for a while. At least 10 hours a day for work more if I game. No burn in, run the same windows in the same place. Is it worth it? I’m never going back. Colours, response time and accuracy is insane.

Im happy with my 4080 super. Moved from my broken gtx1080 and seriously a very big jump. I need to vsync to 60 fps tho otherwise high fps and high consumption (yes for now undervolted it and keep fps to 60 until this crazy power bills return to normal) even at 4K ultra. And no Im not ngreedia fanboy, I had to choose this or nitro+ 7900xtx but power consumption is bad.

6:40 Not just you, i have a lighting internet connection, however, i started facing the same problem with Nvidia in recent days. The problem is from the software itself.

combined the to in 1 interface for NVidia ... great but what about all the crap that comes out with every driver that comes out ? did they fix that too ? like in having stable up to date curent Driver too ?

Loved the video, thanks for concise roundup

if your worried about burn in then do a two monitor setup. Buy a cheap 4K LCD monitor for your desktop/daily usage then keep the OLED panel turned off until you watch movies/TV or play games. No static images. No burn in. Simple. If you can afford 1400$ for a goddamn 4k OLED you can afford another ~400 for an cheap LCD panel to save it from burning in.

Control panel ui is goated, no bs just straight to the point. I hope they never change it up with BS ui you see in pretty much every software now

I've tested zluda on my igpu the rx 660m, Using HIP it took 2 minutes 20 seconds to finish the blender render. Using Zluda, shaved 30 seconds off the render time, not bad in my opinion. There was an issue where the scene would not render in real time but Zluda is impressive for what it is.

Great news round-up! Subscribed!

I have tried AIO cpu coolers, I will be using air from here on out. I have Noctua in most of my computers, but there are some other solid options.

can we get test of the new Nvidia App vs old Control Panel&Experience, best on GPUs of each family, 1080Ti, 2080Ti, 3080Ti ect

When is the app releasing?

Living in a country where temperatures are, on average, high 80s and very often over a 100 and not using air con 54/7 I do use watercooling in my builds and,so far (used them in 5 or so computers by now) , no complaints. Temperatures of my CPU stay in check. I never watercooled my GPUs so far tho or felt the need to do so.

I've used an LG OLED for almost almost 5yrs as a daily driver for my PC and "Burn-in" isn't an issue (not for me at least) I feel like burn-in was probably a thing on release but they've done some magic since then. Love your videos btw. You get more in depth than any of these bigger tech channels and I appreciate that.

loved the news episode :D

@ Vex Can you show your RIG setup in a video?

6:25 dns benchmarking can help maybe, build a custom list first then grab a public dns list for our country and yeah. Then you have the Chris Titus winutil, it has a tweak that "fixes" some ipv4/6 tunneling issue (teredo) stuff

Imagine this is 28 mins long podcast and I am wanting for more lol

15:39 I recently started playing Elden Ring and apart from the fact that I am loving the game (it is extremely addictive), I REALLY would like the Fps to be stable 60fps (The game is limited to 60 like all From games), supposedly it has much less Fps Drops than at the beginning but at this point I would be more excited for a new patch that fix this before the Dlc. I have to mention that the game works with Fsr but it didn't leave me good feelings. You may be interested in trying the game just to see the performance and do some tests.

I had the same problem with internet connection failing during log in. I plugged in a wifi dongle and bypassed the ethernet and it worked.

My 65 inch lg65g1 120hz oled cost me 700 quid (2500 quid normally) was the best option 2 years ago when I got it and still no burn in issues, no other screen needed so for the money I think I did well.

Can someone explain the difference between Direct Super Resolution, DSR, and TSR???

Been rocking an LG CX 55" since 2021 and the difference is night and day. I run a hidden start bar, dark mode windows and chrome, have the sleep function set to turn screen off after 60 seconds, and the pixel refresher on every time I turn it off. No burn in.

I have the Arctic Liquid Freeer II 360 and i am quiet Impressed with the Performance

24:17 that's why i prefer mini led monitors has everything that make oled special like real black level and better hdr with mini led and there is no burn in !!

Honestly I hate adrenaline. I think GeForce Experience is so much better. I know you had problems with login but with that aside it's great imo

I haven't played elden ring either. I still have to finish so many games on my steam before I play anything else. I bought an OLED monitor for my new pc build, and there's no way I can go back. There are times that I will just look at it and be like "damn thats pretty". The one I have has it to prevent screen burn in, by having the image on the screen move every other minute.

I recently upgraded to a LG C3 as my primary monitor for working and gaming on my PC. It is the best purchase I've ever made in computing. It's the best display I've ever seen in my life. 4k 42 inch 120hz 10 bit NATIVE oled with glossy finish (perfection) for less than 1000 dollars.

I bought my Samsung neo G8 OLED a month ago and it’s gorgeous. The colors make gaming with the curved screen so much more immersive

NVCP didn't need fixing... it just needed to be prettier...

IPS Black is making it's way to more monitors and I have one and it's pretty compelling

New Ryzen is on my list

I use my LG C3 42 inch OLED as a monitor and I upgraded from the LGCX 48 inch I still absolutely love the TV as a monitor the 42 inch size is much better. I would recommend it as long as you’re willing to take the time to set it up properly to use it with a pc

I just upgraded to a RTX 4070 with my new rig built by a independent PC builder and now this is coming soon to overshadow it by around 14%? I surrender.

I've been using an LG OLED 4k 120hz 48'' screen for at least 12 hours every single day for about 18 months now. I was nervous about burn in at first, yet I have had absolutely no issues so far. LG have implemented a lot of tools to try and prevent that kind of problem. To me it was definitely worth it, the image quality is absolutely superb.

love ur content and info

I was team air, but now I use AIOs in 80% of my builds. Air would be very useful for builds you really want to touch and forget, like maybe servers.. I also have spare parts on hand should I run into issues, but I've never so far.

I'm air gang but honestly the freezer III bang for buck looks pretty amazing. If putting one in my case wouldn't be such a pita I'd get one just to test it out. I have 2 other arctic air coolers and for the price they are both great. As for oled not quite there for me yet personally (I do more productivity stuff than gaming) but I'm hoping a couple more years will being the prices down and make them better all around monitors.

Wait did they cut their prices in half or something?

Built an all Amd pc around October. 7900xtx is insane. I have a PS5 and didn’t really feel it was much of a jump from ps4 pro. Only real next gen features imo were Dualsense & SSD, which I already upgraded my ps4 pro with… if anything I hate the UI and lack of themes/customization. Wanted to hold out for PS5 Pro but since Sony increased prices for PS+, I just decided PC. I thought about getting a 4090 but don’t like feeling ripped off, so went 7900xtx and was able to get a brand new LG C3 for Black Friday, and still have a couple bucks left for around the same price of a 4090, before the china ban price gouging. Native 4k/120hz on oled is truly next gen. Just wish I could get all the Dualsense features on PC

I followed some video online on how to improve the temps on amd cpus by using the PBO setting and setting a power limit.I kept the same the same performance(perhaps a negligible -1%) and reduced my temps by 20c on my 7700x. From 95c to 75c at max loads while keeping the same performance. If you have ryzen 7000 make sure to give that a try.

7900 GRE looks really good for 1440p with 16GB (if you're not into the ray tracing so much). It'd be nice if 9000 series AM5 chips could have a slightly thinner top cover, especially the silver layer (they might have to adjust for height in other ways though). A lapped 7000 series with a slight undervolt gets fantastic gains on thermals. If people could avoid lapping by hand, that'd be great though.

OLED is absolutely worth it! I use a 65 inch LG C2 as a monitor, all my games are 4k at 120 HZ (the TV's limit.). Talk about immersion! the tv has Nvidia Gsync, and numerous tricks that help prevent burn in. most have reported 0 issues after a year plus.

24:01 i think oled could me good for esports and for people who need a good color representation because they are mostly more responsive and precise doesn’t mean that othere monitors arent

Downloaded the nVidia app as I was watching this. Time to see what this RTX - HDR and RTX - Dynamic Vibrance are. Also, thank you for the video; I appreciate it.

QD-OLED monitors currently only have perfect blacks in completely dark rooms. In rooms with ambient light they can have worse black levels than an LCD (VA) panel. W-OLED does not suffer from this issue.

So your poll says 77% of of people will or have AMD but the market share for AMD vs Intel respectively are 20% vs 80%. I believe those numbers show that people are saying one thing yet doing another.

Tried the Nvidia beta app, you do have to login, and the control panel still is a separate app.

I have an OLED monitor, and it does make a huge difference. The depth of color is so rich! 1 big drawback is that they're highly reflective. So don't keep it in direct sunlight.

Went from 32" 1440p on VA panel 165hz, to 34" ultrawide IPS 3440x1440 144Hz. Panel quality and motion quality don't just change things a little...its an incredible upgrade getting a good monitor panel. I love my LG 34" UW, I'd have spent the $1300 for an OLED but I work from home more hours than I play games. For $750 the LG UW is the best of all worlds except HDR.

Ive never used Geforce experience, always updated GPU but I was still using nvidia old school control panel because it always worked how it should.

I have a gigabyte b650 gaming x ax and deepcool ak620 zero dark cooling the 7800x3d and it seems to be doing fine

You test gpus and you dont use NVCleanstall for nvidia?

I got an OLED a few months back, it is a game changer. Never want to use an IPS or LCD display again. The colours are insane and the ms response time is a big advantage in games. The only problem with them is once you have one you will never want to use another display. I even want one for my second monitor that is just primarily for videos or discord when im doing something else lmao.

Honestly I'd be interested to see how overclocking the vram would affect its performance.

1500 cuda cores? aint that like a GTX 1050 mobile?

oled panels could work at that price with long warranty like samsung ssd where if when it gets burn out the manufacturer will replace it for free

i have the rog PG27AQDM, aka 1440p 240hz oled. it is the best thing i have ever looked at. movies, games, really just everything looks infintely better on an oled, and the downsides that some people describe such as issues with text sharpness, low brightness, etc. i have not had an issue with anything at all. 4K 240hz sure is overkill, though. Most setups can barely hit 240 at 2k

23:00 OLED burn-in? I’m old skool plasma and just worry

the pokemon music lmao

I think OLEDs look really nice however I leave my computer on for hours at a time on the same screen and I never been unsatisfied with LCD panels so I think I'll stick with LCD panels until they die. But even then I can probably get used lcd panels for pretty cheap since oled is gonna be the new standard

just got a artic freezer iii 420 and i have never heard such an annoying aio pump noise, its standing 1.5 meters/5 feet away behind a very large acoustic panel and still i hear the constant 1khz tone also shown in gamers nexus' video. I dont know if there is a difference between the models but if you have sensitive ears (and i dont) just stay away from that otherwise decently performing cooler

OLED is 100% a game changer and 100% worth it. The burn in problems are more so a thing of the past, however it is still possible. I believe some warranties are beginning to cover burn in as well. Setting windows taskbar to autohide, using a black desktop background with no icons and letting the monitor go to sleep after a couple of minutes of inactivity help reduce those chances. I went with a 55" Sony a80k (4k 120hz OLED) for movies and console gaming but liked it so much that I have been using it as my PC monitor for the last year. If I were buying again and knew said display was going to be used as a PC monitor, I would opt for a 42".

I wish the nvidia control panel let you change every setting the gpu is capable of.

2 things. : Nvidia app does take the place of GeForce experience but the legacy control panel remains. I don’t like OLED for now. I think the tech needs to improve before I head down that path. I got a AOC Mini led monitor for sub $300 and it has 300+ dimming zones. 180hz. I love that it has no risk of burn in.

It's 2026. AMD Agrees to purchase Intel for $10B. The Dept. of Justice agrees that Intel is no longer a competitive threat in the CPU market and so the sale does not harm competition. The new Ryzen 10975x4d series of processors (32 cores, 64 threads) is once again, selling well. The new MRNA series of graphics cards is putting pressure on NVidia to cut prices even lower than AMD MSRPs for equivalent cards, because AMD CRISPR AI-driven raytracing technology based on AMD's 2023 patents has made NVidia irrelevant ...

7:46 I DIED LOL 🤣🤣

People always say that they want to see a 300$ card but when one releases its nothing but complaints.

i want to build a cheap PC for 1440p gaming is 5600x + rx 6700xt 12gb good combo?

- Have had my Liquid Freezer 2 420 version over ~1-2 years now and honestly, No other AIO is worth it more than that AIO, and probably the new version. No RGB or built in Display BS and performance is honestly awsome. - About OLEDs, I have the "older" 27" LG Ultragear model and the coating is honestly Blech but OLED is just litterally unbeatable when it comes to contrast ratio, response time and for the most part, colors. * What about burn in? Well if you take care of your monitor then it will last you a long time before it burns in. YES you can game with static elements without worry, just do some pixel cleaning regurlarly! =) * What about work and studies? Well it's fine. I usually don't sit in front of the screen for long periods of time while writing or reading so I'm not concerned about that either. VSC, Word, Outlook, Notepad, Editing software, everything's in dark mode so that also helps with not driving the pixels to hard. One other thing to note is that the sub pixel layout is Not great for text calrity, at least that's what many will tell you. For me personally it's not a big deal, or rather, I don't notice it that much. * Anti glare / matte coating is AwSoMe! No. No it's not. It really dampens the brightness and colors. If you buy an OLED monitor for $900 and up than you can fucking afford some decent window blinds or atleast some blankets to put up! But seriously, even a material that breaks direct sunlight is pretty much enough so the mirror like effect on a glossy screen won't be a problem. I myself have complete control over how much light goes into my room and or the direction of my setup. Also before you comment, I bought the LG monitor because it was the cheapest one and that was my budget. Even though the coating is bothering me It's still better than any LCD screen I could've bought instead. Also It's the same with high refresh rate, once you get into it, you can't or don't want to go back. I play alot of games where visual fidelity matters (to me atleast) so the ~$800 it cost me here in Sweden was worth it back when I bought it. The new OLEDs from Asus, for instance, look great allthough I'm pissed that they put Some anti-glare coating on it so I won't be buying one ever in future. Then there's the resolution. If you have a 4090 then go nuts but if you don't then don't bother. Sure many games are playable in 4K, older and even newer titles with DLSS/FSR but many other games will be unplayable, even with a newer GPU. I know this alot because my previous monitor was a 4K 144Hz LCD display and I had a 4080 before selling it. So trust me when I say that 4K is not worth it. Yet. Then again, it depends Heavely on what you do on your pc! =) Well there you have it @Vex. That's my opinion and thoughts on OLEDs, well 90% of my comment anyway :)

The only way for Nvidia to fix their GPUs is to cut their prices at least $300 to each model.

the new nvidia app is amazing, almost 0% fps loss when recording or using insta replay (nvidia geforce experience sucked like 5-10% performance)

I bought a 4060 TI coming from a 1070. For OLD games that DON'T use DLSS I can barely notice a difference. I'm already thinking about upgrading. I knew the card was bad, but I wasn't expecting it to be THIS bad.

I wouldn't mind spending $500-$600 on a gpu as long as there's a price to performance improvement over my 3070.

Dude, you have to play Elden Ring. I started playing it a month ago and it's truly incredible. The world is HUGE, graphics and gameplay are sweet. Had never played a souls game before. And yes, I bought a Samsung G8 (OLED ultrawide) and it's freaking amazing. Yeah, not cheap, but if you're a gaming enthusiast, I HIGHLY recommend.

If you want to get in to VR, just get the HP Reverb G2

Can liquid cooling be quieter than good air cooling?

Burn-in is more a thing of the past or on very cheap off-brand OLED panels like most portable displays. $600-800 OLED monitors from within the past few years are pretty resistant against burn-in, flagship smartphones are even further ahead. Fortunately, burn-in can be removed too if it's not too bad. OLED monitors are the fastest I've used in terms of response time and motion blur mitigation. Text isn't as crisp at resolutions lower than 1440p though, but these panels are worth it for the vibrancy alone. For me SDR OLEDs pop more than most HDR LEDs.

OLED looks absolutely amazing. Our entire interface with pc is visual, it is certainly a game changer. Burn in is largely addressed with pixel shifting and auto dimming.

16:30 I'm much more on the PC side and haven't bought a console since the XBox 360. I'd actually like to see Microsoft make computers the main platform for games, which I think they've started to do. They can have some type of required specification and guaranteed platform for other manufacturers wanting to sell "xbox" set-top PCs. Feels unlikely but I think a more open approach to consoles by basically having standardized PC boxes would be cool.

"This thing looks straight up archaic the dinosaurs were using this and honestly the dinosaurs could have made a better UI. " that caught me off guard wtf

If DX ever integrated an upscaling solution, it'd be FSR. Big corpos do not bother rewriting extensive, extremely costly code when there is a generic open source solution out. Same thing with Samsung & co helping with FSR, same as that rumour of Sony doing their own upscaling solution for PS5 Pro. They'll expand on it, but the root will be FSR.
