    Yea I was sustaining north of 300 on the Xbox dashboard and checking directly on my gateways connection monitor. Very cool.

    Doing the math, my USB3 transfer speeds were very comparable to gigabit download speeds. So maybe my external fugazi is a wast if I up my connection speeds.

    From my measurements it is going to barely fit horizontally in my ikea tv stand. No where to stand it up since it is such a monster. It'll just blow all the hot air onto my PS4 for the time being.

    Walmart order still not ready but finally picked up the Shoppers one (and $180 back in pts! Crazy)

    Setup went smooth but for some reason it can detect my old Xbox one but not the content, so I can't get the game transfer to work yet.

    Also annoying that it says my TV supports 4K at 60hz, but not 120hz (Samsung KS8000) so it won't let me change my setting to 4K UHD. It's only set at 1080p. I guess it's time for a new TV??

    Wait a year on the tv. Play 4K 60. Let the hdmi 2.1 and vrr shit settle down first, and wait for all the other components in your system such as receivers stabilize hdmi 2.1 support and offer it cheaply.

    Appreciate the advice. Waiting it is!

    Sorry i know NOTHING about these stuff, but my Pioneer receiver says it has "4K HDR HDCP2.2"... what does that mean? is that old tech that will need to be upgraded as well?

    My receiver is hdcp 2.2 and hdr ready (explicitly supports atmos and vision) and it won’t do HDMI 2.1.

    Basically unless it’s an 8k receiver it doesn’t support 2.1 so you are talking really ballin receivers.

    Honestly series x is not going to do well with 120hz 4K anyway, it’s really a problem for 3 years from now.

    By my estimate going full hdmi 2.1 upgrade for my setup in 2020 would have been a 10k touch.

    Probably hdmi 2.0 which limits you to 4K 60hz. Hdmi 2.1 is needed to support 4k 120hz. The confusing thing is that it isn’t guaranteed. Denon and marantz somehow released hdmi 2.1 receivers that doesn’t support 4k 120 lol.

    Anyways glad I can help. Nothing better to do today since my series x didn’t show up haha.

    Ohh so even if I upgrade my TV later I won't get HDMI 2.1 unless I upgrade my receiver too? The way I have it setup I have to run everything through the receiver

    That’s correct. You can technically run the series x straight to tv and rely on earc to pump audio back to the receiver, ask @killramos how that’s going lol.

    Oh, and all your cables have to be hdmi 2.1 as well. Everything in the chain needs to support 4k 120hz Dolby vision and vrr to be truly future proof. For a year anyways when new shit comes out haha.

    Yea e arc didn’t work worth a damn for me, couldn’t get it to make a peep out of my receiver despite reconginzing each other.

    New HDMI cable solved my issue but I had to cut 25 feet of length off which is making my wiring run real tight ( I have it only partially fished right now as a stopgap.

    HDMI 2.1 is really not a standard worth chasing right now. Those cables have to reliably push 48Gbps to be certified which is kindof insane. I couldn’t get my 50 foot cable to push 18 reliable for 2.0 standard hence my issues.

    Does the receiver have to support Dolby vision?? I’m updating to finally get 4k pass through and Dolby Atmos. Wanted to get a Sony receiver.

    Unless it explicitly supports Dolby vision you are taking a gamble.

    My last sony receiver supported 4k pass through, but wouldn’t pass HDR of any kind.

    I filled the internal hard drive with 13 games.

    Looks like quick resume isn't fully working yet so don't leave a game without saving.

    Both my series x is in Calgary. It doesn’t seem like Best Buy was even prepped for this. Shipped everything out of Vancouver to western Canada the day before, so only Vancouver got it day 1.

    Mine got delivered today at 2pm. He tried to make it inconspicuous by placing it next to recycle bin and covered it with snow shovels. Wife is on her way home from work so we'll find out shortly if it still is. Shovels don't look disturbed so I think it's still there. (Doorbell cam)

    EDIT: Package secured!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah that's pretty annoying they didn't ship it earlier. Same issue with Wal-Mart. This affects both systems.

    The only people that got it on release day are GTA and GVA.
