FWIW 1440p content looks way better on my 27 inch 4K monitor compared to my 25 inch 1440p monitor.

Using a 27 inch Acer VG271U 1440p monitor. Sit about a feet 2-3 feet away.

 

27 inch is fine. It will look good.

 

I use it on everything from 32" 720p TV to 50" 4k TV and in between. 

 

It looks best on 22" - 32" screens. I don't think you will have any issues regarding sharpness or upscaling artifact's. Go for it if you want.

And your monitor is 120 fps. You are in for a treat wrt responsiveness and input lag.

It's perfect for XSS . Will work really well. Also i think your monitor supports downscaling - It will accept 4k/60fps signal from PS5 and then convert it to 1440p/60fps . This should give you a "Rough" idea as to how games might look on XSS at 1440p

Starfield would really need this. That game was running at 20fps during the demo walkthrough

I wish they would overhaul the xbox gui. It harks back to the awful Windows 8 tile layout and looks clunky and confusing compared to the simple and clean gui of the PS5.

 

I know green is supposed to be xbox colour but dial it back a bit on the gui eh?

Also, dude just watched some porn. Cancel culture has gone too far.

It's not normal but like watching some porn accidentally can't be a reason to destroy someone's career. Some displinary should be fine. 

Guy probably didn't know that it was being streamed.

They hire themselves as unofficial unpaid salesmen. Gotta white knight those poor mega corporations.

 

 

 

Truer words haven't been spoken. 

 

 

Ps- not just salesmen, some hire themselves as free CAs, PR heads, defense attorneys etc as well, offering services (quality of which) can be compared with what's expected of stuffs which come for free.

You can change the color, you know?

I actually didn't. That's how unintuitive the layout is. I've had the console for about a month now and the gui still feels alien to me. Anyways I'll set the colour to black, thanks.

It has some learning curve like windows. Once you get used to it, there is a ton of functionality built in cause it's old xbox one OS.

 

Did you know you when you select your avatar on home screen by pressing up, you get a lot of info that you can't access from elsewhere.

This is a gaming console. Not a programming language. The OS has to be natural and intuitive

Probably because you're new to it. You'll get used to it in time and eventually realise that it's more intuitive that it feels at the moment.

There’s a good amount of changes you can do, just explore ‘personalization’ menu in the settings -

Yeah Generally do that only but this guy is now spilling his crap everywhere so got a little irritated.

Versus thread is locked so he has to sh*t here and then in Returnal game thread - suggesting anyone who didn't vote for that game in the poll should "get buried in guilt". 

Anyways will go back to ignoring him . 

 

[rushab oswal]

@Snake @Assassins Creed I never try to police threads , but he's doing this in multiple threads. Can you guys warn him ?

Yep, I was about to post the same thing yesterday. Even after being told to f**k off from the thread on account of it not being the VS thread, he continued to sh*t elsewhere. Can't blame him though; diarrhea does tend to spill everywhere.
