THIS is the 57" Samsung G95NC Odyssey Neo G9 240Hz Dual UHD Monitor - the monitor that I’ve been waiting for! I’ve been a HUGE fan of the G9 range from Samsung and this has NOT let me down! The World’s first monitor, capable of running two 4k pictures at the same time! Also, it’s worth noting that Samsung have never sponsored (and, at this rate, probably will never sponsor) my G9 content; so, what you’re getting is a real-world, unbiased review!

Bro i love samsunggg❤❤❤
Did you watch the world series of warzone yestarday Pethe???❤
hi U can try connect a gaming laptop with it .cos some high end gaming laptop HAVE DP 2.1 with rtx 4090
Is this the 57" Odyssey Neo G95NC Curved QLED DUHD Gaming Monitor ?
Unfortunately you're looking through a 'letterbox' as it just doesn't have the height of display, even with you sitting that close. I'll stick with my 48inch LG OLED. 120Hz VRR is all you need. Combine with TrackIR or Tobii and it's brilliant for gaming.
I prefer my 4k projector on my 136" screen.
That's not just a gaming monitor, it's a portal to another dimension.
lol
VA = why?
I just built my dream set up as well, and when I tell you it does feel like I’m walking into a portal. Especially on RPGs I played red dead over again just for the experience…. Hands down amazing
@@eugenijusdolgovas9278 The curvature.. Need QLED but you get burn in.
Currently even a 4090 rig cannot drive that monitor at 240hz. Due to a NVidia not supporting the latest versions of DP. You would actually need to go with an AMD Card to unlock the higher refresh rate. (but it probably wont be able to actually push that many frames)
Well you usually buy a monitor to keep for many years anyway so next year the 50 series will come out with presumably the DP 2.1 port so this monitor will be unlocked to it’s fullest potential port wise
Nvidia doesn't support it yet on 40 series? How bout 30 or 20?
The more graphic-intensive games you play, the fewer fps you will get. When people talk about 240hz or 500hz, it doesn't mean much because every game will get a different number of FPS. In which game do you want to achieve 240hz and even if NVIDIA supports it, is your graphics card actually able to generate that many FPS?
Seems this could still work with a 4090 by using PBP and two cables. It should be possible to drive each side to 240hz (if the game isn't too demanding). Nvidia supports combining two monitors to make one virtual monitor so applications and games would treat it as a single monitor. I don't own one of these, so I might be wrong.
@@daphoosa unfortunately just like the g9 oled which I own the whole monitor can only do 240hz per display. So pbp is limited to 120hz via dp or hdmi2. 1 I've tried this on my 4090 but makes sense as having a controler on board a monitor capable of 580hz and all that bandwidth would be costly rnd
Thanks for the great video and the information for mac users. May I ask have you met any other problem with using MacOS? Like many other monitors would have some flicker or waking up problem so I'm a little worried about it. I just bought a Mac Studio M2 to replace my iMac 27', I'm struggling in buying Odyssey G9 or 2x Studio Displays, do you have any suggestions?
Very welcome!
It does have an issue with waking up - I have an M2 Studio now and if the mac goes to sleep it then doesn't come back when waking the screen back up.
Fixed by disconnecting HDMI and then re-connecting from the back of the Mac.
But it also sometimes messes with the resolution which needs a full restart to solve.
So I tend to avoid it going to sleep where I can!
I love my G9 but this seems like the upgrade ive been waiting for. Cant go back to anything else now .. especially the immersion of the 1000r curve when gaming. Great review.
💯
Thank you! Yep - likewise. The G9 has been my favourite screen - and now there's a 57"... insanely good!
Thank you for productivity feedback. I don't care that much about the refresh, this is simply the only monitor with this kind of resolution, PPI and curve. No USB-C is asinine, but adapters can resolve it.
To prospective buyers: The price will probably drop significantly in a few month like usual.
Sometimes I'm baffled by how fast after a release of a product the price already drops significantly. Definitely worth to wait a bit.
I'm thinking of waiting for the Black Friday sales. Do you reckon it'll come down by then?
I have since bought this monitor and I'm very happy... Mostly. I thought there would be some type of KVM functionality but that doesn't seem to be a thing. I attached a USB-C dock and that works, but swichting is inelegant at best. So it works, but it's not very flexible and you need to use the OSD every time AFAIK.
bro literaly answered every question i wouldoff had waoo love it bro keep it up
Great review... I have the 49 neo and was wondering what is the height difference from top to bottom of 49 vs 57?
I just ordered mine. Can't wait to get it..
There’s a lot of misinformation in this video, but here are 2 big ones.
1. The 4080 does support HDMI 2.1, but Nvidia has issues with Display Stream Compression which is limiting it to 120Hz. You currently need an RX 7000 series GPU with DisplayPort 2.1 to run this at 240Hz.
2. A matte screen is the worst possible choice for this as we can measure a very large hit to clarity, contrast, and perceived vibrancy vs something like what they used on the OLED G9. It also doesn’t stop reflections, it diffuses them into larger areas of light.
Hey man, appreciate the comments.
I wouldn't know re: 4080 - I've got a 2080! Hoping to upgrade to a 4090 or possibly the RX - currently figuring out which is best to build.
2. Honestly I prefer the matte screen over glaring reflections. It may diffuse it into larger areas of light, but when using the screen I can't see any form of reflections, diffused or not - so I'd call that a win :)
Like I said in the video, I'm not one to benchmark and get into all the nitty gritty. But I am someone who uses this screen for a good 6-8 hours every day, and I've used every single version of the previous gen 49" G9 models - so hope that perspective is useful to people watching!
@@PeteMatheson if you upgrade to a 4090 you will still capped at 120hz. you need a 5090(not released yet) or a RX 7000 series (7950 for that res...)
Great review! I was also interested in productivity use of Samsung Odyssey G9. Thanks!
Thank you! :)
Pete, I mean this from the bottom of my heart: This is one of the best monitor reviews I've ever watched. 👏👏👏
Coming from you that means a lot dude! 🥳 thank you 👏🏼
Just got mine yesterday. I had the original G9 before this and the differences are significant. I finally have a monitor that I can't see the individual pixels on. There is a lot of blooming for some reason though. I'm still tinkering with settings though.
I just got the 49" NEO version and I love it! I hope to get this 57" version some day. When it happens I will probably get rid of all my smaller displays.
Hi Pete! Love your channel and videos. To the point, smart, funny. You doing a great job!
May I ask for your advice? So at the end, is it worth to buy this 57-inch (connecting to Mac and Ps5) or 49 would work just as well?
Gaming - not so much (and most likely I'll get laser projector soon anyway). Productivity - excel, charts.
I was really happy with G9 Neo (49*). Sold it a while ago. Going to move soon and need a new monitor.
Excellent review ty❤❤
At 13:26 you have a game centered and what looks like your mac on the top right. Does the picture by picture option let you position the screens or is it just side by side? I'd like to run a racing game in the middle via XBOX but would like to also run my mac off to the side. BTW you've earned a new subscriber for the awesome and extremely well done reviews you do.
Love the video! I'm so glad you talked about productivity as someone who games but also works from home. One question, I love your desk shelf and it seems like a great size for the monitor! Which desk shelf is it?
Thank you! That’s from Grove Made 👍🏼
Awesome video! You got my sub
what KVM do you use to switch between all the different inputs? You have a PC, Mac, Xbox.. so does it require you to unplug everything and then replug each time you use a different system?
Hi Pete, great video and love the setup, and the fact you displayed Windows and Mac!
I know you mentioned PIP/PBP for solving your issue with the Mac. I was wondering if you get the chance whether you could test / comment on the results you can achieve with a windows laptop?
My work laptop can support 2 external UHD monitors at 60hz (5k@60hz via TB4 and 4k@60hz via a HDMI port) and I was wondering whether I could achieve a borderless desktop similar to the video experience we can see at 10:56 using 2 separate cables; DP-USBC and HDMI-HDMI. (I appreciate this would be limited to 60hz)
Many thanks in advance!
Hey! Thanks for watching & leaving the comment 👍🏼
Yep absolutely you can do this with your windows laptop, as long as you have the right cables to do so! Window management in windows is a bit better too so it should be much better to use for multi-windows etc !
I also have the original g9 and neo and am intrigued by this model but want to know if I can run it at non native resolution and still use DLSS and HDR. I have a 4090 under water block but have done the math and 7680x2160 is 125% more pixels or double + 25% so in games with RT this will more than halve my performance. That and i would also need to wait for Ergotrons updated HD pivot. $2k is a lot of money to part with. I dont know, thinking of just sticking with my G9 Neo which has zero issues, especially factoring the panel lottery in as some 57" G9 owners have had to return theirs within a week or two.
I agree I have the 49 Neo g9 with a 3090 ti ftw3 ultra rig all around incredible parts and on AAA title games running at ultra graphics I am not getting over 120 fps so for this even the best graphics card you’re going to need a 6090 Ti to maximize this screen or multi gpu setup which is just a waste of money. I love my screen and I feel like these are going to be so buggy anyways and their QC is terrible
there's so many comments so I'm sorry if this was already asked, but how's the viewing angles compared to the oled g9 49 inch or any oled for that matter? Also, is the resolution too much to handle for most tripple a games?
I had mine for a couple of days now and I'm just glad that I seem to have won in the panel lottery. No DSE, great uniformity, no scanlines or dead pixels. If nothing breaks I'll keep this one until micro led arrives. Have fun with your monitors guys
🙌🏼 Likewise! Haha
I think QC has gotten better.
It was dreadful with their first G9 releases
@@PeteMathesonwell I can't say that mine broke completely after only 10 days. Repairman is coming on Friday, let's hope they can fix it.
Hey @PeteMatheson, what desktop speakers and chair are you using. Nice video by the way, I'm buying this monitor when it's available in Australia. Tks.
Hi, what kind of cables should I use to connect two different PCs or one mac and one pC? Thanks for your answer
I am also planning to buy this monitor. Have you tested it with your older Mac by connecting two cables to the monitor and using it in a dual monitor mode (PIP)? Would you then achieve the maximum resolution, equivalent to two 4K monitors? I have a Mac Mini M1 and I wonder if it would work.
This review is everything I've wanted! Instant sub! Have the 1800 g9 right now, it's nice, but more size was what I thought I needed. So I bought the Ark when it was on sale, hated it (it would have been perfect if it did the same split like the g9 does, 4 zone split would have been cool)... But this 57 is seeming like the monitor I need!
The newer Ark allows multiple screens from multiple HDMI sources on screen at once 👍
@@DuecePiece they could have easily done that on the first gen. It's just software. Loosing it with Samsung.
I've had this monitor for practically 10 days. I'm telling you this is the best monitor I've ever had. Beautiful black on screen, perfect curvature, amazing resolution. How I would rate only like this... 11/10
🥳 Spot on! haha Glad you're enjoying yours as much as I am!
It's not even out yet....so no you don't have it
@@drunkhusband6257 premiere on September 6 in Poland, so it can't be otherwise - that's how I have IT :D
@@drunkhusband6257 It’s been out for a little while. The US launch is a bit later than a number of other countries. I’ve been following a lot of people on Reddit who have posted pictures of their setups with this monitor over the past few weeks.
If this monitor is not out yet - how did the reviewer purchase it. Samsung did not send it to him ?@@drunkhusband6257
Hi Pete, Great video and now subbed!
Couple questions if you dont mind.
1) Is the built in power supply/fan noisy?
2) Could you advise the distance between the monitor and the wall with the vesa arm pushed all the way back? Like you I also have a fairly shallow desk and it concerns me that it might end up too close to my face.
Thank you for the review! Hoping to buy one of these or the 49" version for software engineering/gaming.
I have a pair of these coming next week. Going to set them up one over the other. Can't wait! Thanks for the review.
A pair! Haha, epic.
How are you planning on mounting them?
@@PeteMatheson I'll be using the Yellowtec Mika system. It's what we use in our radio studios for mics and monitors, and the mounts say they support monitors up to 15kg. Fingers crossed that it works!
@@ChristianWheelyou got it done I’ll love to take a look. That sounds awesome
Hey Pete thank you for the video I am using 49 inch OLED. I have been having issues connecting macbook pro 2019 to it. How did you connect yours to a mac? I am just swaping cables trial and error and going crazy sort of :)
Great review!
Is your desk custom-built? I have a 60 inch desk with my current G9 49 setup, but I think I need something bigger since I just preordered the 57 inch earlier. My desktop speakers are already kind of competing the with screen for desk space.
Hi Pete, Ive been looking for this answer everywhere but cant seem to find it. i know on previous models they had issues when running in PBP mode you would lose features like local dimming or hdr/both. Is this the case with this monitor? or is local dimming in both sdr and hdr both working when running in pbp mode. Would love to have this clarified. Thanks!
Im a Samsung 49" fan like you. Have worked through 3 versions. Have been on the fence on this monitor, but your video has helped me make the decision to buy. Thank-you!
Yeah 100% it's worth the upgrade, aside from the few issues I mentioned which are kinda annoying - it's still a great screen
@PeteMatheson ohhhh the plight of loving the shiny! There's always an upgrade just a short turn around the corner. Just wish my pockets were a little deeper! 😄
I owned the Odyssey Neo G9 49" and I no longer believed it was possible for me to get excited about a change of monitor again. I've had the 57" for about 4 hours and I can't help but stay glued to it. The cm gained in height make the image finally perfect and after updating the firmware and setting the colors and HDR the result is incredible. Particular note should be made on black colours. Never seen such "black" black colors without OLED technology.
In triple A games even my 4090 struggles in some cases to stay above 60-70 fps so I find the Diplay port 2.0 issue totally marginal at the moment given that I don't play competitively.
While waiting for the 5090 to be able to make more use of this jewel, I can only recommend it without any doubt to all lovers of the 32:9 format.
Given Samsung's well-known quality control problems, the monitor does not present any problems.
great editing, keep it up
🙌🏼 thank you!
Subbed! Question, did you notice if the PS5 can support VRR when using PIP mode with Fortnite on just one side of the monitor?
I’ve been waiting for video for a while now
Hi. I've got an older 49'', but because of an issue with these that Samsung refuses to help with, I've not wanted to buy their newer screens. Do these still have a issue with getting super hot on the sides when using "Fastest" Response Time/Ultimate Freesync when gaming?
I've contacted Samsung and they just say it's normal for it to be hot, but it's so hot it hurts to touch it and there are cases when it literally melts people's screens because of the heat. So I would want to know that these issues are solved in newer screens before I'd consider buying them.
Could you still enable HDR on Mac when you use this monitor in PBP mode? Wanted to get this G9 but was worrying losing the HDR if I use it in PBP mode
hey man, please i need your advice. i have the g9 neo 49' . do you really recommend upgrading to the 57' ? i just got the 49' from best buy and i can return and get the 57' so what do you think
The Atdec AWMS-BT40 heavy duty mount supports this monitor.
Hey @PeteMatheson im stuck between the 49 inch oled and this 57.... for one cost i can get the oled G9 for £1400 or this G7 for £1980. But i have a 4090 gpu and im hearing i can only get 120hz out of the 57, which is making me lean toward the cheaper 49.
What is the colour like on the 49 oled compared to the 57?
Thanks Joey
@PeteMatheson Does the monitor have the ability to support DP 1.4 or Is it strictly 2.1 only? I have a Rog Strix GeForce RTX 4090OC and it only supports up to 1.4. Unless 240mhz 1440p can be supported through the 2.1 HDMI ports out the GPU. Please let me know.
Thanks,
Hassan
Nice video!
Just to clarify. Do you have the heavy duty adapter for the Ergotron or not?
Thank you! Yes I do - I have the HX HD mount already. The pivot doesn't support the weight, but the rest of the arm does. I'm hoping they'll just bring out a new pivot rather than the whole arm
If you get a better GPU test if the Scanline-Issue with higher frequancies still exist!?
And does it work to Switch inputs and picture modes with DDC/CI commands over DP?
Is there any update on getting 240hz with nVidia cards? Will I have to connect it with 2 cables to get this refresh rate, but having two logical screens? No other workarounds like SLI-like dual DP connection?
I'm using the massive original stand for now, and I'm still waiting for the new ergotron arm. Thanks for letting me know they are making it. This stand is killing so much space on my desk
I'm hoping it's out soon! It works just fine as is but it would be nice to pivot just a slight bit
Hopefully by Christmas. Then i can buy myself a Christmas present 😊
Hello, I'd like to ask a question. For productivity you've set this monitor up as two seperate side by side 32inch monitors but you mentioned you can almost treat it as a triple monitor because of how large it is. Is it possible to set up a central 32inch monitor with two side monitors? A triple virtual desktop with the centre screen with task bar at the bottom? I imagine the centre used for your main focused work or game, one sode for work chats and emails or discord and another side for a web browser or document or video, something like that? Thank you for your time.
Unfortunately not unless you can do it with software.
I’m using Picture by Picture which allows 2 sources to be shown at most. You can’t do 3 sources.
I think at this point they'd benefit from a multi-foot stand instead of the single arm. Like maybe 2 feet on the outer part and a single peg/foot in the center so that it can save some room (while also still having the normal monitor mounting socket)
yeah, the stands are getting ridiculous. Really makes even having space for a keyboard and mouse a challenge!
@@PeteMatheson Hey what is it ? I can't seem to find the SPECS of this monitor
1440p or 1080p ?
It's Dual 4K/UHD. Basically two 4k panels side-by-side. @@officialyashvirgaming
Question: Is it still worth grabbing the Samsung G9 Original that came out a couple years ago for like €800?
I'm currently running 3 27" monitors and just can't make myself go down to a screen this small. Yes that's a massive single screen but my setup now is a 81". My 4090 is getting well over 190fps in mist games with max setting. My resolution is 7810X1440 that's a little over 6k because I have the Nvidia surround set for bezel correction.
at what 120hz. ... lol
How does the monitor handle the scaling issues that Mac often runs into? It usually looks okay on a 5120x1440 resolution but goes weird when you are not doing 1440. Have you had any issues or blurry text?
No issues at all works perfectly in PBP mode (aside from the weird colour issues)
Any recommendation where to sale or trade in a 49' G9?
Question as a streamer: Can you run a game at 21:9 (not the 32:9) in the center while also using the excess space on the sides for programs like OBS or Chat?
with extra programs. yes. you can do it with fancy zones. but its not perfect.
@@droiddevx03 👍
FYI: The RTX 4090 is limited to DP 1.4 (like the RTX 4080). But they both have HDMI 2.1. So you should be able to push max resolution @240Hz via HDMI.
Personal experience: The OLED G9 is hands down the best gaming monitor I currently own (and I have the original CRG9 from 2019 and another G9 Odyssey, but the OLED G9 just blows all the others into bits ^_^). Sure the OLED would have been a bit better with the 1000R curve, but even the 1800R curve is fine (or I just got used to it?) I don't really see a big difference when going to my other 1000R screen though :D
Its not just about OLED quality. You are missing the point that this screen has much more real estate for multitasking. Also has much higher PPI and the larger screen size is more immersive for gaming. A lot of people will compensate on pure image quality for these other benefits including no worries with screen burn.
Ok.. No, I don't believe I am actually. I am talking about image quality in gaming, not how many windows I can put on thw screen at the same time.
the reson oled does not need 1000r is that it is not a va panel hence why they need the 1800r curve on va panels
@@JoeMama-yl1ow samsung doesnt support 240hz over hdmi AFAIK for some reason
@@CalanReichel yes they do on everything this is because they are in cahoots with amd on this ever sammy i have had supports 240 over hdmi g9 neog9 neo g8 and oledg9 also
Great video man. The light leak though like at 13:27 would drive me nuts, OLED is much superior
Dream Monitor for me = 21:9 Ultrawide 38 at 5120 x 2160 240HZ.Currently using the G9 OLED
It’s a fair point! But unless you’re playing a lot of dark games with piercing whites it’s not that noticeable.
But agree, OLED is of course going to be better. I just want this in oled and with usb c! 😬
Agree 100%
Agree 100%
That's the camera, especially at an angle. I haven't been able to spot a single light leak during my testing. Even the classic white on black haloing is very very subtle.
Yep, can confirm@@Grammostola. You won't see any light leaks when sitting in front of the monitor. Zero. You can see some when sitting at an angle but that's normal.
are you using PBP for the dual monitor thing? and i guess you cant have 240hz then? same as on the g9 49 oled?
Thanks so much for this, I’m really tempted to get this. Can i ask, i currently have a triple monitor setup, ie iMac with 2 4k displays. I use several desktops or spaces per screen, ie one for calendar, emails, things, then usually have studio, python, word, ever note and safari on the others. What is it like using multiple spaces ie virtual desktops on a ultrawide screen
Very welcome man!
I find it works quite well - I generally use a space for personal stuff, one for work etc.
I have the shortcut on my MX Mouse to be on my thumb so I can hold my thumb down and swipe left / right to switch spaces quickly.
Does this screen work at full resolution on the iPad Pro M1 through Stage Manager?
What wall arm would you recommend? I have a secretlab desk pro which is all metal i cannot drill anything through it
Hello I got a question I’m having problem with this monitor when I open a game in my laptop the monitor start flickering and then shut down? And when I try it with the ps5 works fine do u know if this is a setting setup error or may be hardware error?
more than happy to support - keep churning out them reviews ....
Hah! Appreciated man :) Thank you 🙏
Can this monitor support 3 input sources? I want to connect 3 computers and am considering using a USB switch. What's the easiest way to switch between the inputs? Would changing the input source and switching the USB allow simultaneous access to all 3 computers?
Hi, I got it a few days ago but I find the colors very faded.
Then I don't understand, does the black equalizer work in reverse? in reality the more I put it towards 0 the more it lowers the backlight while in the menu info it says the opposite
Thank you
hey @PeteMatheson is the new Ergotron Arm for this monitor out yet? If not, is there a date for it to be?
just started using this how do you get the screen to display games at 2560x1440 without it being streteched and looking out of place and even at 4k it looks weird as when I was using the lg 21:9 everything just worked fine no matter what even if the game didn't support 32:9 when I use 21:9 on this it looks weird
In PBP mode, with a PS5 on one side and a PC on the other, do you still get HDR and VRR?
Does anyone know what would be the max refresh rate of each sub-screen when using Picture By Picture mode? Any sources?
Nice review, what is screen height without stand with stand it is 60.1 CM?
So it's not possible to have two computers side by side both at 240hz? Or 240hz and 60hz? That would be amazing for dual PC streaming.
I'll post an update soon. M2 Mac Studio is here, and new PC with both 4090 and 7900XTX on the way!
@@PeteMatheson TY
I’m looking forward to the regular 32” 16:9 OLED displays, finally one is announced to be on the way!
What's the office setup? Desk/chair/keyboard/etc/
What about the massive light bleed these monitors still show despite their HDR local dimming capabilities?
I have put my name on preorder list (in Australia - missed the first preorder ) to replace my nearly 10 year old 2x 27 inch Asus screens - wondering how this stacks up in comparison to the 49 inch OLED thats coming out as well - this still the better option ? ! I have a 7900 XTX but think I may need to upgrade from my 8700k to see the max anility of this screen
OLED generally looks better, but this is way bigger. Depending on what you want to do with it, this screen may last multiple times longer because it will never burn in.
So from th evideos I've seen, it looks like the scenery is """stretched""" quite a bit. I starting to look at upgrading for MSFS and wonder about 3 identical monitors to reduce the risk of that stretch. Appreciate your point of view
That is crazy ultrawide screen monitor.
no usb c is a weird omission, especially considering my 43" Samsung ultra wide (c43j89) came with one. Granted it is more of a work monitor rather than a gaming monitor, but at this price they really should put it in. Its great being able to connect a single USB C from my monitor to my surface or MacBook and have the screen extend, my keyboard and mouse connect and my laptop gets powered.
Perhaps next year's version gets those features.
Hello, Congratulations Cool. 👍👏👏👏 I am impressed. Whatever makes you feel happy
Can most PC games fit the 57" resolution? I fear I would experience the black borders on the sides of the screen with a lot of games if they can't support that screen size.
I also have an odyssey G9 but a 49 inch and I’ve also on a couple of other odyssey G9s. And I’ve noticed sometimes when just turning on the monitor, you’ll get these horizontal blurred outlines across the whole screen and way to fix it is to unplug the monitor and plug it back in or power the monitor down and then back on again or if leave it alone for about five minutes and it will disappear. Does this happen on the new 57 inch version of the odyssey G9.???? your videos is only eighth days old, so maybe it hasn’t happened yet or maybe they fix the issue, in any case I would like to know if this is happened?
Known issue that happened with earlier generations of the 49" G9 - I've not experience that on any of mine other than when I bought the original G9 a couple of years back
Is it a greater difference in gaming between G9 OLED and G9 Neo 57 or G9 OLED and G9 Neo 49?
When using PIP, does both screens support 2k 240hz? or is it limited at 120hz whatever res? thanks - great video
As I understand it, with the lates 4090 from Nvidia you can't unlock 240hz but lets assume you CAN with the AMD card, so the PIP or PBP you would be doing either let say single 5120x1440 at 240Hz or if its picture in picture or splitting the monitor using 2 outputs from the card an HDMI and DisplayPort, it would become 2560x1440 screens at a lower refresh rate, my guess is it would be 120hz 120hz
i see, thank you@@67steinip
I just ordered the 49" g9 odyssey from Amazon for 899. Be here in 3 days. I've had triple monitor setup before, (3) 32" 1080p Samsung. I have a 40" 4k tv now and was hesitant on giving up 6 inches of vertical real estate, but we'll see. Plus, I'm going to mount the 40" above this for my movies.
10:30 how is the backlight bleed situation for productivity where you use dark themes? Please compare to G9 OLED.
Is it as bad as Odyssey G7? I used that for productivity but it was unusable for any dark mode/dark theme because backlight bleed was so obtrusive that you cannot ignore it, basically you see BLB in one spot with the left eye and in another spot with the right eye, and just rotating slightly your eyeball causes the spots to move 💀
What is the highest resolution that you can use which enables the 240hz with a 4090? is it the 2k resolution?
Thanks for doing this video. You mentioned the 1000r curve, do you find yourself having to move your head from side to side often to see the corners of the screens?
Yes, but that’s because of the sheer size of it. I’ve not once felt that it was a bad thing!
@@PeteMatheson would have thought the 1000r curve would help mitigate.
I know its larger then the 49 but is it higher as well? I coming from a 32 in 16 : 9 .. would it be the same but with room either side? i looked at the 49 inch and it seemed squished
Awesome Pete... will subscribe and check out all your videos and like... I love this monitors too.
Thanks for the sub!
Wish it was an OLED. I know it has thousands of dimming zones but still noticed some blooming
What is the desk shelf you are using under the monitor?
I'm deciding between this one and the OLED one. How does adaptive sync work, if at all, with PBP mode? Can you specify which picture is to be used for adaptive sync? Also I want the OLED but am afraid of burnins, since I've got a lot of static images throughout the day on my old 49" ultrawide.
I have a lg 45''' 240hz oled its the best monitor I have ever used I am comparing this samsung odyssey neo g9 57'' once it gets here but I would be willing to sale the lg for $1100
Hey, Can you split 7680x2160 at 3 x 2560x2160 ? I use to work on 3 monitors and it wold be much better for me to have "center screen"
have one of the older 49" ultrawides connected to my mac mini m1. It's home working paradise. 2 virtual desktops open next to each other.
Thanks man!
Thanks man. I wanted the Ark, but I felt I found out kinda late about it, I been looking for a 4k curved monitor for the longest and this the only one I found so far. Let me rephrase, a 4K curved monitor bigger than 40 inches lol
I still think there is so much information our human eyes can absorb and see. I still go for the 49” and I like that it offers sounds and it is smart!
