MM 2018 (+ eGPU) + LG 34WK95U-W

Could you, dear experts, please give your feedback on how well the HDR10 / Dolby Vision content is displayed using the above setup (with or without eGPU)? 😉

I just got my mac mini setup - it has 16gb RAM and the i7 CPU. I have an LG 34" Curved Wide screen 3340 and a 4k 60" Vizio both hooked up to the MM - and the internal GPU has handled both with no issues so far. I don't do any gaming however, just music and video editing for drone footage. I may pick up a eGPU next year sometime if I start doing 4k editing, I am strictly 1080 right now.

I can't say specifically about the HDR10, but i was watching PSVUE through the TV and it was crisp.

Thank you!
Have you had a chance to watch any movies in HDR10/Dolby Vision, by any chance? Impressions, please?

I am currently writing this and streaming 4k streaming on Netflix on my 4k Vizio - don't think it has Dolby vision or HDR10, but it is handling this with no issue, connected via BT to a Harmon Kardon Speaker - no skipping or stuttering.
RAM is at 8GB, CPU is 95% idle, again barely above Idle. But I can't confirm the HDR10 question.
GPU monitor showing maybe 20% usage.

Hello there

Is your TV compatible with HDR?
If yes, could you try some of these files: https://4kmedia.org/

On your Tv it should show somewhere it is HDR.
