Yes they are not that sturdy from rattles, wonder if the wall bracket would, be better?

Exactly the same here - returned my G9 due to the dreaded bezel peel and ended up getting an LG 38 GN950 (thinking I would most likely return it when I could get another G9) but then decided I preferred the LG all round. Decided to keep the LG and I am really happy I did. I did love the G9 and it certainly has a wow factor but for everyday use the extra height of the LG plus the fact it just works without any issue (and the colours and general pq are top notch) won me over.

Where did u get it from. Can u PM me?

120hz pbp is brilliant if true.

That's awesome news, thanks for confirming. Is HDMI still limited to 60hz irrespective of resolution? I'd like to use PBP with displayport for one and then HDMI for another. Presume that 120hz would be the only inputs accepting 120hz PBP. Might have to get a HDMI to displaport converter/cable.

Yeah looks like it, at native 1440p can only do 60Hz, can do 800x600 at 75Hz, but who'd want that lol

lol 75hz at 800x600!

Wish they would give us the option of 120hz via HDMI for resolutions up to 2560x1440 but I don't think they can do that given the way the monitor scaler works.

On the G7 32 updating to the 1007 washed out the colours and made the mild flicker worse. Went back to 1006

It's a txt file that gets generated along with the img file when running the exe you download from the Korean Samsung site.

Here is the virustotal scan:
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file...0f0208ab1d9547bf617c372d7c6bd7f28f3cd/details

19 files are inside, which of those is the changelog? And how did you extract it? Is it in a temp folder somewhere? For me only the .img file is in the destination folder.

So I’m in a holding pattern, waiting up to 4 weeks for the new batch to arrive in UK...having to use an old iMac until I’ve got a new g9 :mad:

Interestingly updating my G7 made no difference whatsoever, in a good or a bad way. :shrugs:

Really wish Samsung would consider something in the middle such as a 34 inch. I'd like something bigger than the G7 but the G9 is just way too big for my desk.

isn’t wall mounting an option? The stand is too big for mine so I’m wall mounting it.
