Hi
First off, been there, tried that, as others have, and in the end, we seem to have two options with the S95D (and past ones)
If you run it with a PC (high end), I can have 4k/144hz/RGB/Full colour 10bit/VRR with G-Sync compatible selected. This sounds great, but the VRR flicker on this TV is unbearable compared to any other TV I have owned/tried that was fully G-Sync compatible. According to other forums, this is normal for G-Sync compatible monitors and not fully G-Sync. They all have a degree of OLED VRR flicker, but it's worse if it's just compatible.
To get around this, running 4k/120hz/RGB/Full colour 10bit/Fixed refresh with adaptive sync is possible. If you do this, you get ZERO VRR flicker. But what bothers me is that if I pick 144Hz, 70% of the time when I turn the TV/PC on, I get a static screen with blue lines. 144Hz works 100% of the time, and Gsync is compatible, but not if I use adaptive.
Sadly, Samsung will see the PC issues as a tiny problem because the consoles use AMD tech, and that's the bigger market they will monitor/fix.
Has anyone got a way to run 144Hz with adaptive sync?
Thanks
