Hi everyone, I'm currently running the beyerdynamic dt 1990 pro mk1 250ohm through my rodecaster duo.

Will there be a big difference if I buy a dedicated amp for it? And if so what's the best setup? DAC and AMP separate or one that can do both?

Primary use case is gaming and entertainment with some light video editing.

I've seen multiple brands like fiio, schiit, topping, JDS and so on. Which is the best brand and model for my headphones?

(Budget is not a problem)

I’m looking into joining strong 8k but I’m using a Samsung tv and the apps are limited.

Any suggestions? And how do I link my strong 8k account afterwards?

Need help choosing between these two, both at same price.

Saw multiple guides online and most had the first one as tier 2 and second one as tier 3. But then I came across the steam buying guide made last year which had the first pair near the bottom of the list while the second one was tier 3. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3481425371

First glove: Pattern 462. Float: 0.221216410398

Second glove: Pattern 420. Float: 0.214718535542

Which one do you think looks best?

Fps is extremely high in all games but they all feel like playing on 20-30fps. It also has screen tearing in all games I've tested.

The only thing that fixed it for me was enabling vsync on nvcp. But that adds noticeable delay on some games and I can't stand it.

Is there anything that might be causing this?

What I've tried:

- Fresh windows install
- Clear Bios
- Process Lasso only enabling cache cores
- Messed with almost all windows and bios settings

Another thing to add is that when I did a screen tearing test online or the ufo test, it was completely normal. So this only happens on games as my pc is completely fine on other tasks.
