I'm so done with win11, and currently 12 of my 15 machines are linux anyway, but AFAIK HDR (on nvidia gpu) is still impossible? Are you guys all on AMD or just not using hdr for gaming/media? So instead of relying on outdated info, just asking the pros :)

15 machines? Do you use a rack? Seriously though much like the other responder hdr and actually most video things are not important to me and I tend to adopt them only when they are on the most affordable of options. Granted there are certain things important to me that I will go for earlier. Energy efficiency or more environmental disposal wise (have not yet encountered anything that significantly is but it would sway me). Also I have wanted to get organic leds because having very black blacks is a big deal for me. So basically I guess im saying I mostly don't care about that stuff.

5 physical, rest VMs. I'm not crazy :-) Wasn't important to me either until i just switched because the new monitor could. Now i wouldn't wanna go back as it would feel like from 4K=>480p. Couldn't care less about energy-efficiency though, i already waste an 8-person-average (according to my provider) for my hobbies alone :)

Im so bad I get annoyed when I can't stream things at standard def and have to do at least 720 as I want to limit the bandwidth im using.

lol, ok that's a solid reason. Though i now have 5 x 1gbit, i started with 3600baud back in the day. Bandwith IS an issue :-)
