Wow, really? 1st I heard of that!
Yeah, way back when. You could avoid screen tearing by running in 480p.

Wait...do we really have people here saying to not trust a PCPer review, even going as far as to imply waiting for a LinusTech video for a more valid opinion is a thing? Does nobody here know who PCPer is? I would trust a review from PCPer WAAAAAAY more than anything Linus does. The lack of faith in a group that has much more thorough and precise testing methods (PCPer has come up with much more accurate ways of benchmarking SSD's, and they're the ones that discovered that some AMD cards were drawing more power through the PCI-e bus than the bus was rated for) is extremely disturbing.
Neat, but that sharpening filter and black crush... yikes.
I remember Call of Duty 2 (or was it 3?) running better in 480p vs 1080i. In 1080i, framerate would drop in certain instances like when running through smokeWow, really? 1st I heard of that!

Here's the video from Linus: https://youtu.be/MjJzibFTaqA

This is some crazy stuff that I'm just knowing today.I remember Call of Duty 2 (or was it 3?) running better in 480p vs 1080i. In 1080i, framerate would drop in certain instances like when running through smoke
At 60Hz 1080p, 1ms is more than 60 lines. You can do sub millisecond post processing on quite large patches.Sub millisecond latency is impressive. It must work on each horizontal line one at a time. Which of course is extremely limiting.
I think that mainly happens when you combine 2 of them.Seems like it cranks up the sharpness, ugh. Even if it does take care of some aliasing, that's a horrible trade-off. No thanks.
That was me.
And yeah, I see nothing inherently infeasible about this.
Need a test with a Nintendo Switch.
After seeing the linus stuff i would LOVE to see someone do a video on last gen consoles and even before. Gamecube, PS2, Wii w/ adapter and ps3/360. Because i would buy this in a heart beat if it works well with these.

Someone tell John about this!Yeah I would love see a dedicated gaming review of this with last (and last-last gen) consoles.
Digital foundry. Get on this shit.

I'd argue temporal AA is still post-process (not that it could work in a cable of course)Durante said:Post-process AA is basically useless in VR (and detrimental in some ways).
This looks to be doing what modern TVs have built in to them.
Plus, all the talk of Switch and other consoles, didn't Linus say it only works if you set the display resolution to that of the input? Meaning Switch and other lower than 1080 inputs wouldn't work on TVs anyway?
This was always possible, the problem is how it affects games with AA solutions already.
TV tech should definately have it.
In the linus video they try using it on a game with 8x MSAA on and it improves the image even further.
Ok, tell us how it is!Got mine for testing just now.

A lot of people stopped trusting them when they started pointing out weak points of AMD hardware.
From what I saw it did get worse when he added a 2nd cable, in fact it got to a point where he say he didn't recommend doing that.Not from what I saw. His initial reaction really surprised me because I thought the mCable side looked like absolute trash and he was praising it. I mean, this is some of the same shit Best Buy pulls on showfloor TVs.

I imagine that the best setup would be something like a 4x2 matrix switcher with the mCable on one output and a standard HDMI cable hooked up to the other, rather than buying multiple mCables.Would buy a few of these if they were cheaper or i Won the Lotto lol. Was about to post this article, until I did a search.
