They are both relative to the first number and define the horizontal and vertical sampling respectively. A signal with chroma has no compression so it is not subsampled and transports both luminance and color data entirely.
In a four by two array of pixels, has half the chroma of , and has a quarter of the color information available. The signal will have half the sampling rate horizontally, but will maintain full sampling vertically. Artifacts from chroma subsampling are at their most noticeable with text atop a flat color. The impact is far less visible in videos and photos. This matters when connecting your TV to a computer, as you don't want your text to be blurry to the point of being unreadable.
As you can see, the lack of detail is clearly apparent in the bottom two rows. The text is all muddled together, and a lot of it is completely unreadable. While fares better than , it still isn't what most would consider acceptable. While this pattern showcases an extreme case, similar side effects are visible in normal usage as well. It usually makes standard text look fuzzy and reduces its clarity.
Now, its importance with smaller text is undeniable, but what about with movies? The benefits of having full color in video are debatable, especially at 4k.
It would be tough to recognize the difference between a full sequence and the same content in There is virtually no advantage to using for consuming video content. If anything, it would raise the costs of distribution by far more than its comparative visual impact. This becomes especially true as we move towards 4k and beyond.
The higher the resolution and pixel density of future displays, the less apparent subsampling artifacts become. While some PC games that have a strong focus on text might suffer from using chroma subsampling, most of them are either designed with it in mind or implement it within the game engine. Most gamers should therefore not worry about it. Testing for chroma subsampling is very easy. Just open up our test pattern in Windows Paint using a PC, then observe it and check if any of the lines and text are blurred together.
If none of the text blends together and shows artifacting, then the TV and mode you are using does not use chroma compression and is showing chroma Most TVs today allow you to enable chroma Different brands place these settings in different areas of their menus.

I have the same question 0. Monitors frequently had no speakers and when they did, sound quality left much to be desired. Everything sounded flat and weak, so external speakers were needed. Many current displays aimed at entertainment and gaming include impressive dual speaker designs with an independent subwoofer, known as 2.
This article discusses what puts displays designated for gaming apart from standard monitors, what to look for when choosing a screen with gaming as the primary application, and in general the things that make a gaming monitor good. BenQ Knowledge Center.
Do gaming monitors need USB-C? IPS panels bring the best colors and viewing angles to a gaming monitor near you. Many current displays aimed at entertainment and gaming include impressive dual speaker designs. The only reason you might want to untick the ' Allow HDR10 ' box is if you are using a budget TV or a low-brightness projector and HDR causes images to either look uncomfortably dark or be affected by poor black levels and backlight control.
Whether you enable it or not is really down to personal taste. On the one hand, we tend to prefer to play games in the format in which they were made. On the other, the upconversion works surprisingly well and rarely looks incorrect.
Feel free to experiment and draw your own conclusions. If you are watching Netflix on your console, for example, the ALLM feature tells your TV to use your preferred video preset, such as Standard or Cinema, but if you start to play a game, your TV will automatically switch into its Game preset so that you get the most responsive experience. So useful is this feature that you might wonder why the Series X provides the option to turn it off.
But with all TVs, especially LCD models, achieving fast response times requires sacrifices to other image quality elements. Again, there are two reasons why it might not be for you. First, it can cause issues while playing back game captures, which may be of concern to game streamers.
Still, for most people, if the 'Allow Variable Refresh Rates' option is available, you should enable it. After all, the way it adds extra scene by scene image information to help compatible TVs produce a more dynamic, accurate HDR picture can make a big difference to the viewing experience. The only reason for not ticking the Dolby Vision box if you have a Dolby Vision TV would be if you find, as a small number of users do, that Dolby Vision causes black level instability or reduced black levels.
If you have a screen with HDMI 2. This is because of the HDMI 2. This increases the potential for fine colour shifts to appear as distracting bands rather than subtle blends. Select YCC and the colour compression only drops to and the colour depth goes up to a potentially blend-enhancing 12 bits — all while still fitting the signal into HDMI 2.
