Can Optoma's UHD30 stand in for a gaming monitor? Does 240hz refresh rate look good on a big screen? With HDR 10, 4k and a screen that can be as big as your wall, is it worth it to check out projectors again?

$70 pillow

hahah truth
I had to pause the video and rewind when I saw that: "Surely that wasn't $70 for a throw pillow.... oh.. wait. I could even buy CyberPunk for that. Oh..... wait."
They sold gamers “gaming chairs,” enough said.
my gaming chair is hella comfortable
Na, Secret labs chairs are stupid comfy and the whole office has one.
Gamers spend a lot of time on their ass and want a chair that looks like it can hit a rally stage brah get your head in the game smfh
Ugh my brother just got a gaming chair and it is so uncomfortable. I told him before that good office chairs are way better. He just liked the style better than regular chairs.
Best 'gaming chair' is a barber chair... adjustable footrest, headrest, better cushion, and about the same price.

"Do they think gamers are suckers?"
If gamers weren't suckers, companies like Activision, EA, Ubisoft, Warner Bros and so many others would be out of business.
We are suckers in that sense, we know damn well what they’re doing. We still purchase the games because sometimes it’s a certain game series I like
Ideally you would setup your projector so that you don't need digital keystone adjustment at all. As soon as you turn on keystone you're losing pixels and compressing some parts of the image or stretching other parts. What they really need is lense shift, but you need to upgrade to the optoma UHD50x to get that.
imagine having a cpu pillow more expensive than ur real cpu
"Why hasn't Linus told us about the sponsors yet?"
He doesn't even try anymore
Imma tell my teachers they need this for their powerpoint presentations
You shouldn’t use keystone in the first place anyways.
Usually unavoidable in household situation, especially desk/table mounted
You kinda have to unless you want the projector to be in an awkward location. In most setups you would want it mounted on the ceiling. I suppose you could build the wall in a specific angle to compensate though. But then it will only look right from a specific height.
Yeah, if you mount the projector on the ceiling and do a lot of measuring to make sure the lens is lined up to the screen properly, you can skip the keystone adjustment. Mine's ceiling mounted and measured well, but small keystone adjustments are still needed because the screen doesn't hang perfectly flat.
I play videogames and watch movies on a sub $200 1080p Vankyo Performance V620 projector I bought from Walmart, in total about $300 for the screen, extra long hdmi and laptop stand for the projector. At 100 inches, and only $300 total, this thing is awesome. I don't know what the input lag is, but I play all types of games including Warzone with no issues.
Linus, when will you finally turn ON the heating? I see you wearing that winter hat for months now. :)
In BC those are welded onto your head just after birth, and in summer hair is rendered on.
I am into the projector gaming. I love the big immersive screen. I got a tight budget, so I use the Vankyo V630W. It works for me. Not 4K, but I can live with it.
Black looking black, vs black looking gray... Probably something to do with the fact that you're projecting onto a dark wall, rather than a white screen?
They're using cameras that cost tens of thousands and yet there's so much visible noise in the footage. Just what are you doing wrong?
I think you are talking about the processing done by youtube.
Came here looking for this. What happened? This is not regular on this channel.
YT processing and it could also be low light
Videos on floatplane likely look a lot better
Combination of a low light scene and digital punch-in zoom all. the. thime.
Um, yeah, you should *NEVER* rely on keystone correction on a permanent projector installation. Carting it around for portable setups, sure. But just do the installation right and you won't even need any keystone correction. You can easily mount this on the ceiling (upside down) and get a great image at the right height without needing any keystone correction at all. Not a big deal. Keystone correction *decimates* your image quality.
Thanks for making this - I have an Optoma GT1080 Short throw projector and was considering upgrading - think I'll leave it though as I also have a 120" screen and no issues with the contrast (even without HDR).

Yo.. random question, what's with hime saying "60x4240" at 9:32
7:19, I could see a ton of rainbow effects, so much for "gaming"
I was playing world of Warcraft on a 3 meter screen over 10 years ago, it was epic
Projector rule #1: NEVER use Keysteome correction! It ruins your resolution! Mount it on the ceiling upside-down as it is inteded and you are fine.
Rainbow effect is lessened by the speed of the color wheel, not the speed of the mirrors. Man, you have a lot to learn about projectors.
1:25 I'm getting a young Michael Algar vibe from this. 😂
You are measuring ANSI contrast not the on/off contrast. ANSI Contrast is usually much lower than On/Off. And ANSI Contrast is actually pretty damn good for DLP projectors vs other tech
Bought the optoma uhd42 cause my old Benq w1070 needed an upgrade when ps5 came. So far im happy with it.
@Linus Tech tips Ok, Linus, you're wrong, you may not have read the user manual!
www.optoma.co.uk/product-details/uhd30#downloads
I don't have this projector model, I have another optoma projector, two times less expansive and as they use some kind of same base, I can say that contrary of what you say, this projector's best usage is mounted to the ceiling. You will not need keystone because you mount the bottom of the projector on the ceiling, so that the top of the projector is under his bottom, the top of the projected image is in fact his base (p14 on us English user manual) then you switch to adequate projection mode (user manual, p35: "Setup menu//Projection//: Select the preferred projection between front, rear, ceiling-top, and rear-top."). Additionally, the ceiling mounting make the projector further away from your ears, so the fan will be less noticeable.
Also this projector don't have lens shifting, keystone correction is purely numerical, so it deteriorate image quality, so it should always be avoided. Opoma have the UHD40, 300€ more expansive, AFAIK, it's the same, with optical features.
I currently use a HD29H, that cost me less than 700€ + 350€ (screen) it allow me to play 1080p@ 120Hz on an image size of 2.84m*1.60m (128inch diagonal). UHD have the same brightness, or maybe better. You speak about vizio P series, but you just can't reach or even start to approach such a size with their TVs. Even when considering other TV brands and the UHD 30 + a 400€ 2.8m base screen (1700€ in total) there is no match, such big TVs will be way more expansive.
Also i disagree with the issue about distance from the screen: I don't know the projector's name in north America, but in Europe, their projectors (optoma) have a short range and a long range version ( ie HD29H Vs HD29HST), other brands do the same, like Acer. So it's up to the user to choose the right projector that match with his room.
DLP projectors are, side to the various HMD displays the last kind of display still in the marked that can display stereoscopic 3D. So thanks to Texas instrument, and Acer, BenQ and Optoma to allows us, stereoscopic fans and gamers to build stereoscopic hardware.
4:21 A pillow for $69.99 ?? That's Rs5,000 in India, thats my monthly rent hahah
Spinning wheel ? That's ancient tv tech
Linus: Check out this $10,000 processor!
Linus: We couldn’t afford a $250 projection screen.
*sigh*
screen set so high my neck hurts just watching this
you avoid using keystone at any cost anyway even in very high end home theater projectors so them not including it is not that big deal in game mode
What you guys gotta get is a dark room with vantablack walls.
I'm sure they forgot that they can adjust the angle of the image.
I got a wt-2900 1080p beamer and yes my monitor is better but none can beat the cinema feeling a beamer gives to movies and games :)
I have a 4K projector that I spent $300 on which was on sale on Amazon normally selling at $800 I say normally although I'm pretty sure it's permanently on sale at some price although nowhere near as cheap as I got it probably about 500 is the average price.... And I play steadia on there regularly.... Not to mention the screen size can go up to 300 in even though I only have a hundred inch screen due to the size of my room. I do believe the refresh rate only goes up to 90 on the projector I have though... Vertical and horizontal keystone correction as well for a large range of degrees I don't remember exactly how far but I checked it out and it went pretty far
Just got hd28i very impressed for the money

Many RUclipsrs promise all kinds of wonders with ear buds like these, so this is really refreshing.
I've got a pair of soundcore ear buds, not this model, and they are good for the price (40 bucks, I think) but that's all and you shouldn't expect any more fron them.
They're clearly a choice of convenience over sound quality (which is pretty much the whole concept of this type of product anyway) but still sound good at that. I like using them when I'm going somewhere by bus or train and don't want to carry a bag to store my oe headphones in when I'm at my destination.

Microtransactions are profitable. I rest my case.
Funny how people bitch about them, and claim they "have to" buy extra stuff to enjoy the game. It's as if they don't realize they can choose not to pay for that extra BS. Cosmetics, fine, whatever. But weapons, power ups, booster packs, etc.? Fuck that.
@@LordPrometheous That's the thing, from cosmetic to everything else cash shops strip the game of everything that should be included for you to earn. However, I will give props to the games that stay cosmetics-only where none would be necessary for the game anyway. PvP games typically.

@Billy West It's still fucking stupid to say that. Yeah, it might seem obvious to you, but when dealing with expensive hardware, it'd be dumb not to just because "it seems obvious". It gets intimidating when money is on the line, and it's mean of you to call them stupid for looking up a tutorial. Besides, as history has proven, the people who want convenience far outnumber the people who care more about quality. Especially for something like gaming, a hobby that's supposed to be enjoyable. They are the market.
@Billy West You sound very pretentious and far too sure of assets you don't possess. Yeah man, people default to asking more knowledgeable people for help. That's how we as a species succeed. Confidence will get you killed more than it will help, and with an attitude like that, you might have a lot of trouble in your life. I don't see your problem with needing help. Sometimes, it's a good thing to ask people for things, especially when they seem really simple. Like, I make clothing for fun, and there's a suprising amount of things that I never could have realized on my own. I still don't see how the simplification of games is inherently a bad thing. There's a lot of unnecessary complexity to many things. Removing complexity that doesn't add depth is a wholly good thing. I hope you get help with whatever keeps you from depending on others.

@@adsadam1 AH yes because everyone who pre ordered Cyberpunk already knew how broken it was even though its called PREORDER, WAY before the game ever released. I Pre ordered it on Steam a few months before release, and as soon as it released, I heard of how broken it was, and waited for the first patch to be released before playing. After that I started playing and actually had quite a lot of fun, and didn't experience any game breaking bugs or glitches, and experienced fairly few bugs and glitches in total. All in all, how the hell do you expect people who pre ordered the game to know it wasn't going to be ready yet? Also you forgot the idiots who bought GPUs and CPUs from scalpers as well, as those too got scalped to living hell.
@Qimodis Dont forget cut content. High end graphics card is not gonna fix the ai or bring back the cut content.
@@PilotTed The very concept of preordering is for suckers, and you're a sucker for doing it. It's the epitome of an uninformed purchase decision and allows companies to continually push out broken, unfinished products because suckers happily throw money at unreleased products.
The funniest aspect of your story is that you knew after release that Cyberpunk was broken, and the response was not to refund the game, but to reward CDPR by letting them keep your money.
Giving companies money before a product is released, AND letting companies keep the money even if the product is broken? Gamers are the biggest suckers of all consumers.
@@PilotTed Those idiots bought it even after not know whether it was broken or not. And bugs aren’t even the worst part of the game, the game has way too many cut contents and every step reminds you that something is missing.

And yes, there are high performance equivalents aimed towards the Business users without obnoxious RGB and what-not.
@@MadIIMike expect some things don't have gaming on their name and are still very price, like mouse pads. Sure it might be high quality, but don't think a 40cmx45cm mouse pad is worth 25€.
Then there are things marked gaming that aren't inflated in price, and in fact seem to be a great price, for example the mice whit a sample rate of 8k samples a second. The only time that kinda mice would ever be usefull is in gaming. It also has I think a few extra buttons over normal and it only costs like 70$,wich seems fare to me do to the technology it uses.

@@guynumber3100 well there is indeed a legitimate market for CRTs because of their use in the competitive meelee scene but since most people aren't aware of it, they assume they have no value
@@guynumber3100 There are extremely nice CRTs out there that are definitely worth the cost, and CRTs are, in many ways, still the best display technology created. Literal perfect motion handling, excellent black levels, instantaneous input lag, and high refresh rates. Also no fixed pixel grid so any resolution you feed it (that it can support) will display natively. The issues with the technology are more practical in nature (big and heavy, can't be manufactured to large sizes effectively, and the way they refresh can cause headaches for many people).
TL;DR, the dude that spent $600 on his CRT has a better display than you in every metric other than resolution and HDR (and because of how CRTs present pixels, that's a fairly negligible compromise).

You can adjust keystone FIRST outside of gaming mode, THEN turn gaming mode back on. Kinda silly, but it works.
Oh. shit, it's that simple? nice, good to know
"Do they think gamers are suckers?"
Me who preordered cyberpunk: Huh?
Hopefully you ordered it for PC
The sheep has become sentient! Therefore we will not kill it :)
Will cd project red fully patches all bugs ?????
I pre-ordered Cyberpunk and I enjoyed it. Next to no bugs besides small ones like one random person being invisible. The only thing that was a downer for me is I didn't do many side quests and beat the game VERY fast. like in 12-14 hours.
@@hamzerpanzer It was buggy, but outside of that it ran perfectly fine on PC.

Linus:"it has annoyimg fan in it"
Me:"so when can i expect a watercooling this projector video?"
You're expecting a water cooled glass lightbulb? How would that work?
@@Heliocentric that is a good question. Depends on the design. You could also change the fan for a quieter one
@@MaxMichel89 frankly, the issue with this unit is it's a budget model and the fact you do not have keystone adjustments. Which is necessary for placement of a home projector.
@@Heliocentric yeah i know and there are even better ways to correct the picture like 4 corner correction...
@@Heliocentric Keystone correction breaks the picture quality by stretching the pixels so that is something you don't wanna use. If you pay this much for a projector you surely want to install it properly. I use lens shift if it's available but nothing else than that. And with a high contrast screen I'd stay away from that as well and trying to place the projector as close as possible in the centre of the screen.
Fun fact: Optoma is the brand of choice for projectors used in arcade games (I'm a Round1 technician)
I have no idea what that means but I’ll try you

*Notices Linus's braces for the first time for no reason what so ever*
this comment is why I came down here.
haha same.
He kinda has a lisp (?) or something when he talks. noticeably different from when he talks without bracers!
they are new right?
@@magneticfish5777 Yeah, I noticed that as well. Right now he sounding a lot like a person who just recently had their tongue pierced.
As someone experienced in projector installation, this video hurts. The reason Optoma sacrifices keystone adjustment for less input lag is because keystone adjustment should be avoided anyway, especially in a home theater setup. (Side fact: Cinema projectors actually don't provide any keystone adjustment because the whole movie industry would never allow it.) Keystone adjustment is a post-process done in the digital domain, which means you are significantly sacrificing the image resolution when using it.
When installing projectors it's expected that the user installs it UPSIDE-DOWN in the ceiling, at the correct height for the height of the screen that is planned. Perhaps Optoma didn't provide enough instructions regarding this but I have a feeling it was rather the LTT guys not RTFM.
Well, sucks to be Optoma i guess.
Shouldn’t there be some way to get keystone to work with some combination of lenses and prisms and stuff?
@@sea_kerman Everything is possible with an unlimited budget. A mechanical/optical keystone correction would probably make the projector 10x more expensive. It would also require a lot more maintenance and calibration.
But yes, it's probably possible.
Hearing Linus’ lisp from his bottom braces are giving me life
lol
Can't unhear it now
Thanks a lot guy...

I respect what you're doing but if you are gonna review this product you should have had the correct screen your self. Paper is absolutely the worst substitute.
it's a cheaper projector for what it does, probably wouldn't make a huge difference
"Designed from the ground up for all gaming"
My baseball bat says that is a lie.
“What monitor do you use”
*my wall*
I wouldn't say that to any one tho
I do everything on the 120” I set up in my room and I have said this. Sensitivity feels different but you get used to it.
I have been playing on an Epson Home Cinema 2040 for a good 6 years now. I absolutely love it. And yes. I have said that. Also - I love that moment in shooters where people ask how I saw them. The answer: Your head is the size of a melon. It is hard not to see it.

@@waldojim42 mine is an xgimi halo. Sniping, shot guns, and karaoke are all better on my projector though split screening hurts my brain. It’s waay too wide and hard to ignore top or bottom screen.
I’m curious, have you gotten used to this?
?? You should never be using keystone adjustments anyways!! Does no one care about picture quality????
And who would set up a projector system and NOT ceiling mount it anyways?
+1. Never use keystone and it reduces resolution and sharpness.
@@buhidef exactly! I can't believe on LTT I'd ever see Keystone Correction being ever even suggested!
I guess they don't get paid enough for a screen and a 10 dollar ceiling mount.
I always thought keystone adjustments were done optical with shifting the lens, or is it just with more expensive projectors ?
Yes, yes we are. We instant-click on every video, even though we were cock-teased about finding out if Dennis went over budget or not
You know you can flip the image in the settings so that you don't have to have it at eye level?
I have this projector on the ceiling and it's very good without any keystone adjustment. Just set it up correctly.

Dear LTT,
Can we have metric conversions please? We all don't just live in North America.
Thanks,

He'll only do it when the income he gets from the other countries becomes greater than the income he gets from US+Canada+Liberia+Myanmar. That is to say, keep dreaming.

LTT: Let's "review" a projector
Also LTT: But lets only turn off the lights for less than 20 seconds in the middle of the video, use the admittedly wrong projection surface, and then don't even show bright mode just because it doesn't work with HDR
I remember when I had a 1080 projector as a gaming system screen. It was awesome to have something that huge, but holy hell that thing was like having a few space heaters going at full blast.
Does anyone remember the last pc AMD build stream when Linus did the limbo and landed on the ethernet cable upside down, lmao.
YES THAT WAS GREAT LMAO
that's Great!!
ayyy lmao
15.7ms input delay? are you kidding me that's literally unplayable.
It's not at all at all you cleat haven't played on a 20ms screen me and my Freinds gaming laptop have 20+ms 144hz screen most gaming monitors who don't include the response rate is around 10ms it's not like ping I can easily tell the difference bweteen 15 and 30 ping
Oh wait do you input delay or response rate if
@@EchoDroll i do mean input delay, and your forgetting that the game itself it going to have its own processing delay which could add another 2 - 10 ms
@@Sl4yerkid your right on the game processing but that works in sync with the input delay so you don't notice a difference. But input delay is dependent on the pc not the projector or monitor response time is the projector or monitor your getting confused Linus said the wrong thing really I'm not kidding
Technology is so impressive when you get down to the fine details. That mirror tilting is so crazy!
