a new monitor (4K@144hz HDR)is being shipped to my home as we speak and I'm preparing for it. Any experiences ?

    No. Only on console atm. Nvidia cards can do pseudoHDR with their new game filters, but it’s saturation and brightness is generally bad and looks fake. Also eats up additional processing resources.

    The in-game option for HDR on the XBox One X doesn't work, or at least I see nothing the slider does to make a difference.

    I enabled HDR on my Samsung Q7F and... *drools*

    The game has HDR elements built into it, though not every texture is 4k/HDR ready. Expect to see... ewwww.

    does the *drools* part mean you were amazed by nice looking colors ?

    Partly. The HDTVs native 240Hz refresh rate made the entire thing look "cinematic", though I don't want to discourage people too much.

    HDR will transform the game, but there's much more going on than simple "nice colors".

    Godrays (which I abhor in games as they're resource hogs) are gorgeous in this game. Watching the sun rise while doing my crafting in Velyn Harbor was one of the most beautiful things I've seen in the game.

    That is, until Saturday, when I arrived at Summerset.

    I arrived at night, and the lighting was drop dead gorgeous. Then the sun started to rise over the vibrant hillsides.

    Clearly, the art department deserves their salary. Simply stunning.

    Those geysers (which act as dolmens for those unaware), with the pink/blue combination during combat, at night... *drools

    no support on pc at al ?? Got any official post or source on that ? I mean it's only just now that the latest windows build version and latest nvidia drivers support it. Could it be it's working now and your information is outdated ? (hopes up)
