Mm... I still want the x2160 resolution for ultrawide better. I'm looking forward to LG's super ultrawide with that resolution height that's supposedly upcoming.
I've owned the Samsung CRG9 (a 32:9 120hz VA monitor) since 2020. These monitors are a lot of fun, but for MOST people I believe the tradeoffs aren't worth it. MANY games don't support 32:9, and you run into black bars all the time. I end up playing at 16:9 1440P in the middle of the screen, with discord and spotify on either side. This means you're running in windowed mode in Windows...which can be annoying with the taskbar in the way for some games...Lastly, these monitors are HUGE. truly massive. People won't say "Ew it's so gamery" they will say "WHY IS YOUR MONITOR SO BIG?!"
I agree. I have the same monitor for 3-4 years too and for work its fine since you can have a lot of decent sized windows at the same time buuuuut for gaming unless you have a 4080-4090 good luck getting 100 frames on full resolution and full screen with high-ultra settings (full resolution is 90% 4K) For anime its bad, most anime is 1080p so making it full screen looks horrible so you are forced to watch it windowed and again not much 32:9 content either. I would recommend and I plan on going to 21:9 with a screen of 34-40 inches
Been waiting impatiently for this monitor. Everything I read said an October 10 release date in the US, but here we are, mid-November and MSI's website only has Taiwan retailers listed in the Where to Buy 🙃
Where to buy isn't where you can purchase the actual monitor. It's just a distribution list per region or country. In the UK per my comment below Scan and Overclockers said the monitor is NOT being sold outside the Asian markets.
@@JonathanAdamsGB Thankfully I don't think thats true. Woke up today, did a quick search, and I found it on Newegg Business in stock and for sale. Even ships from the US so that bodes well! Now just need it from Best Buy....
Hey, man! I love this video and many of your other screen reviews. Could you let us know the release date or when it will officially be available? I'm not sure if you have that information or if you're allowed to share it, but either way, I really enjoyed the video!
For me, a LARGE 2:1 ratio (or call it 20:10 if you want), say in the 50" or larger range would be ideal. These super ultrawide monitors are only good for those applications that need a wide horizontal field of view. However, many other applications are better served by more "conventional" screen ratios. If you want an ultra or super ultrawide field of view, a 2:1 ratio monitor could adjust accordingly (think Samsung Odessey Ark or LG Flex 42). I have the LG Flex 42, and REALLY REALLY wish that LG will make a 48" version based on their latest (as of posting this, their C4 series) OLED.
32:9 is to big ration. You can"t see the corners of he monitor wihout move your head,which for gaming on desk is not very comfortable. For me the perfect monitor for desck is 38-40",21:9 , 3840x1600/2160 ,240Hz ,QD-OLED whit glossy screen. 21:9 is wide enough for desk gaming without move your head around to check the HUD of the games 😁
Ofc you can only reason you can't because your desk is to small the Dept of your desk should be atleast 80 to 100 cm and you mount the monitor on the wall so you will sit about 100 cm away from the screen and you should be able to see everything because the realistic Way to sit on a desk is that the keyboard is sopose to be close to the edge not in the middle actually it's weird but that's how it is you can see a video about it on hipyo tech his a huge keyboard youtuber
Does anyone happen to know availability within the UK? I previously owned the G9 49 OLED but had notorious issues with the micro USB hub and returned it. Thanks all
How you liking that monitor? I've got my finger on the trigger for it. Not sure whether to buy it or wait until CES and see whats coming for next year?
@@bogie170 I like it a lot! 240hz is nice, the pixel density is good, readability is perfect even though some people talk about green and red fringe on text I don't see it! I can actually enjoy HDR movies, its so good (haven't gamed in hdr yet, don't have any hdr games). I wouldn't need more hertz so 240 is the sweet spot, love gaming in ultrawide resolution. As far as brightness go, to give you an idea at night I set the brightness to 8 (out of 100) and at day I set it around 50 and I can't see why people would want to push to 100, even though the monitor guys seem to think 400 nits is low (my monitor is set in a not so bright room though). I imagine if you were to use an oled monitor in a full windowed room then you could complain, but who does that hehe? The design of the monitor is nice, the feet is slick and relatively small but sturdy, the way to navigate the OSD is well done and simple. Unless you absolutely need a monitor that stay ON 24/7, oled is quite enjoyable, just remember it needs to "protect" itself from burnins by taking care of itself by going "off" every 4 hours, for 9 minutes, or I would suggest to at least try 2 times a day to manually set it off. Wonderful monitor, I suggest it to all my friends, but they are all very poor hehehe. 😉
Nope Samsung EVO G9 57 inch is the end game with mini LED nothing beats it the brightness is out of this world. When it’s sunny in a game it feels like your outside
I considered the Samsung super ultrawide VA monitor, but turned it down. Like I would love one display being used as both, but Windows just doesn't handle it will from what I've seen. That monitor even had a split display mode, but it cut the frame rate. That really kills it for me. I don't think I'd really use the ultra wide screen for games much as I use emulators more than I play PC games, and those are all 16:9.
You would need a 9800X3D and a 4090 to even approach 240 Hz on this monitor. I love OLED especially ultrawides but to drive it, you need the bleeding edge of parts.
you dont need a 9800x 3d lol 7800x 3d or even 7700x is good enought its more gpu bound but you dont need a 4090 lol this is 1440p not 4k i can tell you never owned a 49 inch before
@XeqtrM1 are you telling me that this 49' 1440p ultrawide monitor (5120 x 1440) can run games (both multiplayer and single player) at high settings and reach 240 Hz with only a 7700x and a 4090?
While you don't need a 4090, having a 4k-capable card is highly recommended. If you take the numbers into account, a 4k panel has ~8.3M pixels, whereas this has ~7.3M pixels. By contrast, a WQHD (3440x1440) has ~5M pixels and a normal QHD has ~3.7M pixels. So yes you need a high-end GPU to drive it, a 4090 is overkill. I have a 4K monitor and a 3080 and I'm hitting very playable numbers and I'm considering going down to a 49" 32:9 or 39" 21:9 ultrawide monitor - for work/games I thought I valued vertical height more, but over a few weeks of using a 42" OLED TV, I wish I just had the horizontal space. And it would be marginally easier on my GPU It's important to remember that a 49" 240hz 32:9 monitor is a bleeding edge part. You wouldn't want to pair budget PC parts with a premium monitor, doesn't make sense
i woud say this for now i still think its to early to jump into 4k gaming w8 until you get gou thats actully able to do it with max settings probebly a 7090 and maybe a 6090 so far away
Waiting for 2160p vertices equivalent oled ultrawide like this at 240hz. Gonna have to wait like 2 more years and 4 for a gpu that can actually drive it LOL
@Timy.M tech will always improve so monitor will never be future proof say they release a 4k 480 Hz 49 inch qd oled next year but it will always come better tech later down the road so if you keep thinking like that you end up never buy anything because it will always come something better that's how it is but to be fair if you r willing to wait you need to w8 atleast 3 years more but even than when micro OLED release it will still come better tech later you will never keep 1 tech for to long
@@XeqtrM1 I understand what you mean and I am completely with your opinion, but there is a noticeable difference between e.g. 1440p and 4k which is not with 4k to 6k because the eye has a limit. The same at hz 144hz to 240 or even 480hz is noticeable, but e.g. 1k hz not really.
Having owned both Mini-LED and OLED monitors, I find that my Mini-LED is absolutely irreplaceable. The poor HDR presentation of OLED ruins it for me so I refuse to buy any new OLEDs until they produce properly lit panels.
Nope. 1440p is too little on 34” Ultrawide. After few good years of gaming on first IPS 22:9 and then QD-OLED Ultrawide, gaming immersion was disappearing. That thing had too little height. Switched to 32” 4K and it nails the immersion. It has appropriate height, good pixel density, and it’s gaming anew for me. Now, if they would have 5120x2160 we would be talking. But 1440p monitors are just nope. Both in UW and in 16:9

I'm waiting for the 32:9 4K QD OLED
@mitchelldoub8488
Nah we need QD Oled
Good luck running 5120x2160 or 7680x2160 on anything at decent settings
At native 4k
I am waiting for the 360 ultrawide for total immersion.
That's called VR
When it will be available?
Imagine in the future we will have a 77-inch ultra wide oled monitor
With a $10,000 price tag.💀 Might as well use vr in the future
We have exactly this right now ? XD With 144 hz 4k 77 Inch Oled Pc Support
I hope we will have soon ultrawide TVs 21:9 ,will besuper cool 😁
@@BOKLUK_CHOVEK That probably will never happen since most people prefer big TV's
I doubt it will happen since the 57 inch monitors didn't sell well

I will be happy with just a little 39" or 45" 4k OLED.

0:41 what game is this?
looks like the finals but i never seen that map so don’t quote me on it
Nothing like the OLED 49 inch at 240hz. Will you consider reviewing the newest Phillips Evnia QDOLEd. My surprise wide-screen of the year.
Any chance you can review the QD-OLED from Philips Envnia 32m2n8800 or 32m2n8900?
can you do a show on the msi skylight tech
Waiting for an 150’ OLED that wraps around the back of my head just in case

Hi what acoustic panel are you using in the back ?
they should really call that thing the squished TV.
Ps did you mean to hit your pot 1:27?
1/2 a 5K TV 🤣
So, when does it come out and where do we buy it. Because i cannot find this thing anywhere.
its not release yet it just got anounced it release later
and how far you have to sit? 3 meters?
70 cm à 1m
where is 42" version?
will there ever be anything like this with more vertical space?
Very likely yes.
