Thanks for the responses. I have a 144hz 1440p monitor, i7-9700k, GTX 1070 and 16GB of RAM. I use SVP at 144fps now, but I can't stand the soap opera effect, which is why i use 1.5m...perfect balance IMO.
Blackfyre, I changed everything else you put and it looks nice.
But I will also test out the adaptive with the simple shader to see what it's like
By the way, the type of media I watch is often tv series (usually 1080p) and films.
