Over 4500 hours now here, absolutely no burn in and I've run it in HDR 1000 high brightness the whole time.

Can confirm, it's absolutely perfect for gaming/general use.
I'm over 4500 hours of use in HDR 1000 80%+ brightness. Lots of browsing/reading/gaming.
Not even a hint of burn in
It should prompt you for it automatically every 1500hours use unless you disabled it the first time it asks you to.
Otherwise it does the shorter 5-15min cycle after 6hours of continuous use or whenever it goes to standby/powered off after being used for a few hours.
The short one is called Pixel Refresh, the longer one is called Panel Refresh and takes about an hour.
Oh I'm not interested in personally seeing Arctic LFII benchmarks (I'm already running the LFII 420mm myself)
I just meant this person should have included one of the most well regarded coolers available. Having more people cover it is good, but you can't really compare results between two different reviews very effectively with the number of variables that can change.
- CPU Bin/efficiency
- Ambient temps
- Case setup
- Mounting consistency/installation
- BIOS/Firmware differences
- Possible Software differences
and more I'm sure I didn't think of.
Yeah, the "Year Roundup" only having 8 products...I'm guessing that's not even 1/3rd of the number of AIOs that launched this year, let alone the best options from previous years.
Obviously a very useful "It runs fine on my PC" but I just had to pull my GPU to check an SSD and am glad to see both sides of my connector are completely fine over a year later, even while technically using it "out of spec" the whole time.
Odd that they don't test Arctic, regularly regarded as the best and best price/perf.
Yes, I run it that way all the time.
I never touch my brightness and only ever turn HDR off if I'm remoting into the desktop as the HDR image gets blown out.
I put everything that I can into dark mode, and even use Dark Reader to dark mode everything I can in browser.
Once in a while ABL can be annoying on very large white apps/websites, but it's pretty rare for me.
