9. Type in 144 for the refresh rate, select CVT reduced blank under the "Standard" drop down, click test, and press Ok to save it.

11. WARNING TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! Instructions to get Gsync working at 144Hz:https://www.reddit.com/r/OLED_Gaming/comments/uq6s37/how_to_fully_unlocked_4k_144hz_10bit_for_pc/
It worked for me, but you must have Gsync enabled first, and if your display no longer works reset your CRU and reinstall your Nvidia drivers.
Comments
Anapeak should only allow for higher peak brightness. Full screen is barely affected.
I know you moved on the better display with the s95C , but if you give some advice on this that would be great! Thanks for all the info
Some people have suggested reducing gamma due to anapeak adjustments overbrightining. Do you have any thoughts?
