carousell ranging around 1.3-1.5k depending on condition. Man...the used market has really gone up for ps. Can't believe it.

Congrats man how much gdex vs dhl price diff?

Gdex quite good right 😆

Good la happy for you. Can save so much with equivalent service

Get a proper 4k hdr tv during 4.4. X75h might not be the best but if you scout around might be able to get around 2.2 to 2.4k

to me proper color expression is more important aside from top notch resolution with super high fps (120hz). I just started to play with my x90h settings. At first i followed HDTV test configuration for game mode and I actually didnt like it much. Then i did a bit of research and found out local dimming is quite important also. Alter adjusted my local dimming and some other picture settings, GOT looks like a damn movie.

too bad ps5 doesnt support dobly vision unlike the series x.

pretty sure you guys know better than me. But this is quite useful for new tv owners. Even after i adjusted that, I still need to find the best combo between contrast enhancer + local dimming.

I did not follow it entirely either. This is just a good benchmark to start off.

I set my black to lowest and white to highest nits possible (meaning sun disappears on both conditions). Then I set my RGB range to full. I am not sure if this is a good method though.

Then I calibrated GOT via Sony tv picture settings. But that same settings would not apply to AC Valhalla. AC Valhalla looks too bright to the point like there is a white tint over. I had to tune down the maximum nits on the valhalla menu settings from default 1000 to around 800.

incase anyone interested the 65 x90h is rm5.3k after 10% shopee coins rebate. I think it's a not a bad deal.

Yeah but to be honest no matter how I adjust it still does not look as good as CX OLED. The deep black is really mesmerizing

Kinda regret that I didn't get OLED instead. Was offered RM7099 for 55 the other day.

Burn in to me is my least of concern.

my ac valhalla tv settings for x90h. Maybe any sifu here can enlighten me with better settings.

Brightness - max
contrast - max
gamma - 0
black level - 60
black adjust - off
advanced contrast enhancer - medium
local dimming - high
xtended DR - high
color - 60
sharpness - 50
hdr mode all auto

luminance 800 cd/m2
exposure - (-0.5) is this a bit too much cause i feel like lighting is overexposed? At least now night time doesn't look like day time. But if I do this day time would lose a bit of colors and texture details...sigh kinda weird.

Thanks for your great input. I really appreciate it. Yeah SSJBen made me do some reading about HGIG vs DTM.

To make matters more complicated , some of modern days TV have built in , undefeatable dynamic tone mapping , which will overwrite your default tone-mapping curves regardless of settings . There is no option or any sort of settings to switch DTM on or off or HGIG for my X90H unlike the LG CX right?

P/S : 800 for your X90H is correct. Contrast enhancer should be off , black level & color should be 50 by default .
I would change local dimming to medium for X90 because it has limited zones , high makes local dimming zonal transition too distractive .
For Gamma 0 is the correct number for HDR , equivalent to 2.2 of other brands . For SDR , -2 for dim room , 0 for typical environment with ambient lightings .

Okay I will setup using your numbers tonight.
"for the local dimming zonal transition issue" is there any source I can refer to? I want to know my 32 zones limitation.

Bro even with game mode on you need to setup the calibration properly. It makes a difference.

From 4:40 onwards its very on point.

This video is for LG CX. But for X90H valhalla mid tone is actually even worse if not calibrated. Its like DTM just throw in excessive brightness/exposure.

my updated ac valhalla tv settings for x90h. Sorry I OCD for a long post.

Brightness - max
contrast - max
gamma - 0
black level - 50
black adjust - off
advanced contrast enhancer - off
local dimming - high changed to medium.
xtended DR - high
color - 55 (changed to 55 instead of 50 it helps mid tone a bit I think)
sharpness - 50
hdr mode all auto

luminance 800 cd/m2
exposure - 0 or -0.2

Since DR "dynamic range" can only be calculated by highest peak luminance divided by lowest luminance. So the best way to simulate this situation/scene is go to Ravensthorpe settlement and have Eivor stands between the waterfall and the settlement's dome and stare at the Sun (can use the meditate button to change to night/day vice versa). Now you can have both peak and low at the same time(the back structure of the dome will be darken due to shadow) for your TV.

The ONLY parameter here that determines best optimal image for my case is local dimming.
1. with local dimming low - everything just become dimmer, grains on trees, roof details all become blur. Overall whole brightness also lost by quite a bit. By naked eye I would say around 15-20%. Cloud around Sun becomes just pure bright. Cant see outer rim. No separation of cloud gradient. In terms of nominal luminance value I am not too sure cause no software.

2. with local dimming medium - the difference between LOW and MEDIUM is day and night. Medium you can see the balance of color, brightness, exposure, and most importantly details and shadows. The cloud will have gradient/shadows, you can see just slightly of the outer rim of the sun and thats how it's supposed to be.

3. with local dimming high - NO DIFF from medium from naked eye. But when you turn fast using analog stick, you will notice a slight blur on details.

4. Turn HDR off completely or HLG - Everything just so washed out. Cannot use. Haha.

Anyways, thanks to Convael SSJBen. I really learned a lot. Now I finally understand why you kept saying IPS can't achieve 0.05 at darkest. Because it's a specified range. If cant even fulfill that range. IPS HDR is shit.

How many hours of gaming you guys spend per week? Especially those with family, work and etc.

Just want to gauge if I am spending too much or too little time.

Wow. I salute you. Can get enough sleep? Looking at your gamertag we might be in the same boat.

LG CX, Samsung Q95T. Budget then go for Sony X90H.

I am using X90H now and kinda regret did not go straight for CX even though its double the price for 55".

TV is something that we would use for at least 4-5 years or more.

My friend is using CX OLED and GOW looks fantastic.

Exactly and I was comparing 55 across the 3 brands.

Plus HDMI 2.1.

Facts. Well said.

7.4 is 2+3 or standard 2 years warranty? Installation?

Cheapest I found is between RM7K to RM7.1K
