My experience so far with the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" and how it's simply not a fit for me. Amazing gaming monitor though! Background music: artlist.io Randy Sharp - Don't Bug Me

Hey Austin, nice review! I'm considering this for work especially, and I often use dark mode or grey themes, so your video-editing segment 11:34 is spot on for me. Could you please write in the comments if the grey background of the video editing tool is uniform and if there's noticeable backlight bleed that moves around when you move your head just a little bit? From the video it appears that way, but light reflection from behind you makes it hard to discern. I use Odyssey G7 which is amazing for it's fast refresh, motion clarity and good colours, but the constant shifting of backlight bleed when using dark mode drives me mad.
@andiarpo54847 ай бұрын
So with your head in the center of screen as you would normally sit, the backlight bleed isn’t noticed very much. Very near OLED quality. I noticed more blooming looking down at at the screen than anything. A little from the sides but I don’t think you’d have to worry about it. For editing purposes, the G9 is AWESOME! The grey didn’t bleed from what I could tell. You will likely be pleased

If you’re talking about the “bowl” shaped adapter that comes with the 57”, I am pretty sure it came with bolts for it. I may be wrong.. I have since switched screens and now running the LG C3 42”. See if the other mounting screws that came with that monitor will fit the other mount. If so.. size it up with some screwed from a hardware store and get a few for that mount. Shouldn’t be too difficult. Lance may or may not be using similar ones. I’ll check tomorrow when I’m back home. I’d suggest testing the other screws that came with yours for the monitor stand first, see if those will thread

@ASH-GAMING-ENTERTAINMENT6 ай бұрын
16:9 is 3840x2160. 32:9 is 7680x2160. It is not possible to run a 32:9 resolution in a 16:9 format. Even if you could trick a computer or monitor to do it, 1 of 4 things would happen: 1. It would squeeze the 32:9 image into 16:9 making everything stretched from top to bottom 2. It would show a 32:9 panorama style image inside of a 16:9 screen 3. It would goof up, and remain 16:9 OR 32:9 regardless of what you do. 4. It would simply not work. I no longer have the monitor, as it wasn’t a fit for me. I went back to an OLED LG C3 42”. Currently awaiting ASUS 32” 4k OLED. So, I cannot test this, but I assure you, it would not work

I feel you. I had the Dell 49" (which was the first 49" afaik) pretty much since release and I finally replaced this monitor. I stopped playing any video games on my desk and I also started to prefer to work on my MacBook screen since this aspect ratio is absolutely not for me. I bought it for productivity since the panel is not really made for gaming but I hated to game on this thing since I always felt the aspect ratio is much worse for gaming, it's also really taxing on the hardware and games (expect sim racing) were not really optimized for this aspect ratio. And to be brutally honest: I also hated the monitor for productivity. It was just too big. I had to turn my head, the number of windows and stuff on the screen was overwhelming to say the least. My second to last Mac Book had no native support for the aspect ratio and while you could potentially display a shit ton of information: I always felt that a 34" ultra wide is a much better sweetspot since you can absorb all the information on your screen without physically moving your head. I know switched to an an Oled G8, I use the dell for my sim rig now when not playing in VR and I'm so happy that I never have to go back to this 49" mess.

@@Kodyssey I think the dilemma is that the HDMI 2.1 spec on the card technically does allow for this with DSC but for whatever reason, Nvidia hasn't enabled this to work, according to other owners of this monitor on Reddit. The HDMI 2.1 rollout has had many issues, similar things happened with the first generation of AV receivers that had HDMI 2.1 not allowing the newest consoles to run the full spec.

@AgentMoler you’re research would seem pretty accurate. There was never an option at any given time to increase to 240hz, even with 1 side of the screen being used. If you drop to 2K or FHD, I’m sure that option is there. Nvidia is a trusted company and known for high end cards. I’ve always preferred them over Radeon ever since the last computer I built roughly 15-20 years ago.. had artifacts show up on WoW with Radeon, but never an issue with Nvidia. If there are issues with HDMI 2.1 running particular frames/refresh rates, it would make sense for them to omit the feature to keep any complaints of failure from flooding the web. Keeps their good name, and allows for more RND or trial and error until it’s tested and proven.

Real answer: No. HDMI 2.1 supports 4K up to 120hz. DisplayPort 1.4 supports 4K up to 120hz. Biggest difference in HDMI 2.1 vs DP 1.4 is HDR range. HDMI supports Dynamic HDR whereas DP supports static HDR. Dynamic is better. 16:9 in center (option in the Odyssey Settings) shows as 27”. No 32” option which I thought was weird. however, you can mess with settings within windows and games to show as 16:9 and it will take the 32” screen space. But the 4090 doesn’t support 4K 240hz..

When you were talking about the first game, you are kind of incorrect with your explanation. It's not just 16:9 but stretched, it's the FOV that the game developer integrated that gives you that warped effect. You do get more visual information on a 32:9 aspect ratio monitor compared to a standard display. Also, when you do picture in picture: on this specific model you are limited to 60 hz on one side, and 120 hertz on the other. It's unfortunate, but at least you still have a choice of having one of your screens as a high refresh rate one to use for gaming while having another source attached to the opposite side of the screen

I can’t get away from my LG C3 42. It’s absolutely gorgeous! However they have new 32” monitors coming out now that are OLED.. or QDOLED. I know I don’t want a curved screen. Playing a game like Diablo 4 is sooo weird on curve. But I figured I’ll wait till the 5090 comes out to take full advantage of hopefully high refresh rates of these new 4K panels. 4090 probably could, but it’s going into the recording PC when the new big brother comes out

I have the 3080 with the 49" Samsung G9 Neo. I prefer it much more than the 4k monitor I had for a while and over the Predator 38" wide monitor as well, not only for productivity but also for games. Still have the Diablo 4 issue with bars on the sides but that's because it only supports up to 16:9. I think the 49" is more reasonable for people wanting to max the graphics for newer games with a 4090/4080. I have some of the less demanding games like Baldur's Gate 3 maxed with my 3080, but that game doesn't need 120fps+.
@StockySnail5 ай бұрын
I think it’s all personal preference. As for maxing a 4090, the 57” would be better - for games and productivity. More screen real estate, larger pixel density and such. However, most computer gamers are already used to a 1440p resolution, so the 49” would honestly be a better choice if they want to save money. I personally came from a 4K OLED screen.. once you go OLED, there’s no going back lol. Currently use the LG 42 C3 and absolutely love it.

When you use such titles, you make the product look bad when indeed, it’s all your fault/preference. A 4090 not being able to do 240Hz is not the Samsungs fault. The people who get this monitor are doing it for future proofing. They know the nvidia gpu limitation. Your small desk is not Samsungs fault. Your preference for oled is not the monitors fault. The difference in display technologies is well documented. You want better colours, go oled. You want higher brightness, you go Mini led.

So I need to add something here regarding the use of this monitor with HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 1.4, and getting 240hz at 4K or the half 8K this monitor is. Supposedly with DSC (Display Stream Compression, you CAN run 240hz with 4090. I do not have this monitor anymore, so I cannot test this. However, since this is a compression (lossless or not), it “to me” is NOT a native 4K image. It’s doing some weird magical ju-ju, software witchcraft to let you do this. For professional use, this is not recommended. If you’re just the average gamer who needs a massive display like this, sure.. go for it. With that, I stand by what I say still. This monitor will not run TRUE native 4K on a 4090 at 240hz. Only a possibility with DSC enabled. If someone wants to make a video of this, with a 4090, running a game at 240hz 4K on this monitor DSC or not, please tag me in the video or include video link. Ill check it out and if it’s legit, ill make an update video and give said person a shout on it, and link their video for credit.
@Kodyssey6 ай бұрын
le problème proviendrait d’un souci lié avec le DSC, un système de compression d’image, et le nombre de pipelines des RTX 40. Visiblement, ces derniers seraient insuffisants pour compresser efficacement l’image, car sans compression, une telle résolution à cette fréquence nécessiterait une bande passante de 109,68 Gbit/s, or le DisplayPort 2.1 permet une bp de 77,37 Gbit/s contre 48 Gbit/s pour l’HDMI 2.1. Ainsi, lorsque la RTX 4090 tente d’afficher du 7680×2160@240 Hz, un goulet d’étranglement se forme au niveau de la compression et ça ne fonctionne pas bien.

Hey Austin, nice review! I'm considering this for work especially, and I often use dark mode or grey themes, so your video-editing segment 11:34 is spot on for me. Could you please write in the comments if the grey background of the video editing tool is uniform and if there's noticeable backlight bleed that moves around when you move your head just a little bit? From the video it appears that way, but light reflection from behind you makes it hard to discern. I use Odyssey G7 which is amazing for it's fast refresh, motion clarity and good colours, but the constant shifting of backlight bleed when using dark mode drives me mad.
So with your head in the center of screen as you would normally sit, the backlight bleed isn’t noticed very much. Very near OLED quality. I noticed more blooming looking down at at the screen than anything. A little from the sides but I don’t think you’d have to worry about it. For editing purposes, the G9 is AWESOME! The grey didn’t bleed from what I could tell. You will likely be pleased
I hope that was helpful

Which screws did you get for that wall mount black peace that came with the box? it does not come with the box like the regular 49 inch.
If you’re talking about the “bowl” shaped adapter that comes with the 57”, I am pretty sure it came with bolts for it. I may be wrong.. I have since switched screens and now running the LG C3 42”. See if the other mounting screws that came with that monitor will fit the other mount. If so.. size it up with some screwed from a hardware store and get a few for that mount.

Nah, PS5 should be able to do the 120. I think you can set it up that way. HDMI 1 should take priority (I think) or set it yourself through settings on PC and PS5. I do not have the monitor anymore to test and give you a clear answer, but a simple google or Reddit search should do

16:9 is 3840x2160. 32:9 is 7680x2160. It is not possible to run a 32:9 resolution in a 16:9 format. Even if you could trick a computer or monitor to do it, 1 of 4 things would happen: 1. It would squeeze the 32:9 image into 16:9 making everything stretched from top to bottom 2. It would show a 32:9 panorama style image inside of a 16:9 screen 3. It would goof up, and remain 16:9 OR 32:9 regardless of what you do. 4. It would simply not work. I no longer have the monitor, as it wasn’t a fit for me. I went back to an OLED LG C3 42”.

I feel you. I had the Dell 49" (which was the first 49" afaik) pretty much since release and I finally replaced this monitor. I stopped playing any video games on my desk and I also started to prefer to work on my MacBook screen since this aspect ratio is absolutely not for me. I bought it for productivity since the panel is not really made for gaming but I hated to game on this thing since I always felt the aspect ratio is much worse for gaming, it's also really taxing on the hardware and games (expect sim racing) were not really optimized for this aspect ratio. And to be brutally honest: I also hated the monitor for productivity. It was just too big. I had to turn my head, the number of windows and stuff on the screen was overwhelming to say the least. My second to last Mac Book had no native support for the aspect ratio and while you could potentially display a shit ton of information: I always felt that a 34" ultra wide is a much better sweetspot since you can absorb all the information on your screen without physically moving your head. I know switched to an an Oled G8, I use the dell for my sim rig now when not playing in VR and I'm so happy that I never have to go back to this 49" mess.
I hear ya. Have to agree with a super ultra not being the greatest for gaming. I actually liked the 57”, but it wasn’t for me and my uses. I’m back with the 42” LG C3 now. Love it! Colors pop and nothing like an OLED display

The Dell is a completely different monitor. It doesn't have the aggressive 1000R curve this has, so not surprised you are turning your head around.
As far as I know, DSC doesn’t alter image quality at all. What do you base the comment that you made about DSC degrading image quality on?
Simple google search if I’m honest. But even people who had the monitor prior to release said the 4090 wouldn’t do 120hz, at least not without an update.
In google search, type “can RTX 4090 run 4k 240hz” and check all results. Some lead straight to the Samsung monitor, others talk about 4K as in 3840x2160 (which isn’t the 7680x2160 that this monitor even offers) only does up to 120 or 144hz. I’m not a genius, nor do I claim to know these statements as pure fact. I’m going off of what I have researched over a month, and my own experiences owning the Samsung for a week.
@@Kodyssey I think the dilemma is that the HDMI 2.1 spec on the card technically does allow for this with DSC but for whatever reason, Nvidia hasn't enabled this to work, according to other owners of this monitor on Reddit. The HDMI 2.1 rollout has had many issues, similar things happened with the first generation of AV receivers that had HDMI 2.1 not allowing the newest consoles to run the full spec.
@AgentMoler you’re research would seem pretty accurate. There was never an option at any given time to increase to 240hz, even with 1 side of the screen being used. If you drop to 2K or FHD, I’m sure that option is there. Nvidia is a trusted company and known for high end cards. I’ve always preferred them over Radeon ever since the last computer I built roughly 15-20 years ago.. had artifacts show up on WoW with Radeon, but never an issue with Nvidia. If there are issues with HDMI 2.1 running particular frames/refresh rates, it would make sense for them to omit the feature to keep any complaints of failure from flooding the web. Keeps their good name, and allows for more RND or trial and error until it’s tested and proven.
hello , i have a question can i play my games 16.9 3840x2160 240hz with my 4090 ? and 16.9 spect ratio show us 32 inch or 27 ?
Real answer: No. HDMI 2.1 supports 4K up to 120hz. DisplayPort 1.4 supports 4K up to 120hz. Biggest difference in HDMI 2.1 vs DP 1.4 is HDR range. HDMI supports Dynamic HDR whereas DP supports static HDR. Dynamic is better. 16:9 in center (option in the Odyssey Settings) shows as 27”. No 32” option which I thought was weird. however, you can mess with settings within windows and games to show as 16:9 and it will take the 32” screen space. But the 4090 doesn’t support 4K 240hz.. I wish lol. I already want the 5090
you say DP 1.4 cant 4K 240hz so question is how it is impossible in other monitors ? like samsung Neo G8 its 4K 240hz with DP1.4 Or newest Asus PG32UCDM is 4K 240hz also use DP1.4 can u explaine that more ty.
@@Meritexxx DSC (Display Stream Compression) isn’t something I’ve messed with. It compresses video, supposedly lossless quality so that you can run 240hz. It’s not something I’d personally use purposely for when I stream or record. Online forums/google/Reddit mention use of DSC. Feel free to do some DD on this. So to answer your question, theoretically, yes.. you can run 4k 120hz on HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 1.4 ports. However, what I’d consider “natively” - as in, straight up 4K without any kind of compression - no, you can’t.
@@Meritexxx unfortunately when they advertise these fancy gaming monitors, they are a bit shady in letting you know “dsc” needs to be enabled. They should at least say, it won’t run true native without compression (lossless or not)

You’d loose a little bit of screen real estate going with either size, but the emersion would be better I think. Don’t take my word for it though, I’ve never used triple setup. I’d highly recommend the OLED 49” though.. not only would your GPU drive the monitor, but the colors would pop a lot more
@@Kodyssey Thanks for the detailed replies my man ! Subbed to your channel ! See you around 👍
which mount did you use?
It’s a TV stand. I posted a video shortly after explaining how I mounted it. Feel free to check it out :)
As soon as i heard the specs I kinda figured this monitor was a bit ahead of its time. literally. only amd cards have 2.1dp, but even so, its kinda crazy to even consider trying to run this native 240hz for modern games. who knows, maybe when the 5090 drops, people can actually run this monitor as intended
When the 5090 drops, I’ll be all over it lol. The 4090 rocks, but games like A Plague Tale Requiem and various others.. if you max EVERYTHING out, you will notice a lag and drop in frames. Hopefully the 5090 will run GTA6 top notch at 200 fps. That, would be insane And my use of the 4090 has been max graphics in 4K HDR. So, you can imagine trying to run a game in double 4K
ironic for what is pitched as a gaming monitor, that your issues where all on how it performs on games.....& for productivity, it was great!
Yeah, it’s perfect for productivity. I can’t say I’d recommend for gaming. But for them to market it as “gaming” makes a quicker sale.
@@Kodyssey yeah, think you are right there re pitching it for 'gaming' to make a quick buck. Mind you, it's probably good for sim racing & flight sims.
The matte screen makes this look like a cataract simulator 😀
Omg ☠️
Here i have never went passed a 24 inch benQ xl2411P and you are here rocking a 57 inch ultrawide. If this was my next monitor I think I would have a shrine around it worshipping it LOL! Just bought a 34 inch ultrawide from gigabyte that should be here soon hopefully...never even knew they had these ultrawide monitors or I would have got one ions ago (yes, I don't pay attention to these things).
I only noticed because shockingly, I was looking to get a double 4K a couple months before release. However, I decided not to keep it as it didn’t suit my needs. Went back to an OLED 4K screen. Let me say, there’s nothing like it
@@Kodyssey Hearing about OLED, I am afraid to give out money for it for the screen to burn in turning it into a paperweight.
@@cfjlkfsjf I’ve got a 77” in the living room, LG. Had it for 3+ years. No issues. I have the 42” C3 hooked to computer. Absolutely stunning. I’d say no worries. Prob 100 or so units sold went bad if I guessed, then the negative feedback about those units flooded the interwebs. Not to say you won’t get burn in, but I feel it’s much less a worry than people lead on Both of my screens are OLED btw. The 77 is a LG CX model
Hi Austin, bad news for you regarding DSC (display stream compression). Driving 7680×2160 @240 Hz requires about 96Gbps (8-bit) or ~120Gbps (HDR) bandwidth, but latest DisplayPort 2.1 has maximum throughput of 80GBps (~77Gbps real data transfer rate). So it is unfortunately not possible to use full potential of this monitor without DSC compression enabled.
Yes, and I did mention DSC. But it’s supposed to be degrading to the video quality for games according to what I read.
@@Kodyssey There is no one that can tell the difference between DSC on and off. Visually is lossless
Why not using the display port 1.4?
HDMI 2.1 supports dynamic HDR. DP 1.4 uses static. HDMI also supports a little better refresh rate.
could a 4090 even get to over 120 on most games on that screen?
120 max on 4K unless DSC is enabled, which I know nothing about lol. Way over 120 with 1440p
Thank you for presenting your views on this monitor. TBH, you have convinced me to not purchase this monitor even though it is lately available for a mere (cough, cough) $2000US.
Sorry if I burst your bubble on it. It’s a nice monitor for sure, just didn’t suit my needs lol. Glad I could help though
When you were talking about the first game, you are kind of incorrect with your explanation. It's not just 16:9 but stretched, it's the FOV that the game developer integrated that gives you that warped effect. You do get more visual information on a 32:9 aspect ratio monitor compared to a standard display. Also, when you do picture in picture: on this specific model you are limited to 60 hz on one side, and 120 hertz on the other. It's unfortunate, but at least you still have a choice of having one of your screens as a high refresh rate one to use for gaming while having another source attached to the opposite side of the screen
Yeah, I realized the 120/60 split.. that’s a HDMI issue on the 4090. Hopefully 5090 won’t be a problem. As for the game.. which one?
@@KodysseyThe game I was mentioning was the Modern Warfare portion of the video - sorry for being confusing 😅
@@wittywilla yeah MW3 is stretched on sides. If there was a way to adjust for that, I could not find it
So with HDMI 2.1, no 120hz on PBP mode, however, DisplayPort 1.4 will allow 120hz on PBP. Other side will run 60hz
I think this might be because you're running both inputs from the same GPU - I just tried this and I see the same, DP on left does 120Hz but HDMI on right only 60Hz. If you're running a different PC or GPU into each input then you can do 120Hz on both sides in PBP. I also did some more testing after you said you couldn't get 3840x2160 16:9. I've realised that connected via DisplayPort I do get offered 3840x2160, however via HDMI I don't. This sounds like a firmware bug, hopefully it'll get fixed at some point.
@@TechAde I think I was able to achieve the same. And yes, I believe you’re correct on a bug. If I still had the monitor, I would do more tests. I was so ready to go back to OLED, I couldn’t wait lol
Strange I have the monitor and played on it Resident Evil 7 🤔, I have a 4090
Bet that was creepy!!
Excellent insight; that was very helpful. You made me re-consider this monitor.
Glad I could be of help. I went with the 42 LG C3.
That's exactly the model I'm now considering along with Samsung's S90c (though, that's a very large monitor at 55", I believe).@@Kodyssey
@@robr.3247 well I can tell you first hand, the C3 is stunning! Unless you want a higher refresh rate than 120hz (I’m fine with it, even for fps games), it won’t disappoint. The OLED picture is phenomenal. LG has the best. People may argue and say QDOLED is better, but there’s not been a 4K version released yet. So, LG wins for now
Since you're so balled, I'll happily take it off your hands :) send it my way bud
Haha wouldn’t say balled 😂 I sold it to a local and bought the LG 42 C3. That will have to do until ASUS releases the 32” 4K OLED.. I can’t wait!! Once you go OLED.. you can’t go back - EVER
Well crap. Idk.. I just learned ASUS is using the QD OLED by Samsung. I was hoping it was an LG panel. Suppose I’ll have to wait and see
For this monitor. I'm pushing 240 Hz on 5k. Water cooled 4080 and Intel 13 gen. 3 rads(top, bottom and back panel).
I can’t get away from my LG C3 42. It’s absolutely gorgeous! However they have new 32” monitors coming out now that are OLED.. or QDOLED. I know I don’t want a curved screen. Playing a game like Diablo 4 is sooo weird on curve. But I figured I’ll wait till the 5090 comes out to take full advantage of hopefully high refresh rates of these new 4K panels. 4090 probably could, but it’s going into the recording PC when the new big brother comes out
I have the 3080 with the 49" Samsung G9 Neo. I prefer it much more than the 4k monitor I had for a while and over the Predator 38" wide monitor as well, not only for productivity but also for games. Still have the Diablo 4 issue with bars on the sides but that's because it only supports up to 16:9. I think the 49" is more reasonable for people wanting to max the graphics for newer games with a 4090/4080. I have some of the less demanding games like Baldur's Gate 3 maxed with my 3080, but that game doesn't need 120fps+.
I think it’s all personal preference. As for maxing a 4090, the 57” would be better - for games and productivity. More screen real estate, larger pixel density and such. However, most computer gamers are already used to a 1440p resolution, so the 49” would honestly be a better choice if they want to save money. I personally came from a 4K OLED screen.. once you go OLED, there’s no going back lol. Currently use the LG 42 C3 and absolutely love it.
@@Kodyssey there is an OLED version of the 49". ;)
@@StockySnail yeah I knew about it. Problem is, I had the LG 45” super Ultrawide (1440p) in the OLED, and I was not impressed. The games looked good for the most part, not great, but good. However non-gaming.. I was not impressed. So I’m afraid of anything less than 4K on OLED. My laptop is a 1440 and looks phenomenal. But for the monitor, I’m sticking with LG 42 C3 till ASUS comes out with their 32” if I can push past 120hz with my 4090. Unsure
I'd prefer the Odyssey Ark over this. 4k, 165hz, 55 inches, better view vertically and is easier to find on the used market for pretty decent prices.
Yeah I didn’t stick with the G9. Couldn’t do away with my OLED. Back with the LG C3 42”. However.. I’m thinking on the new ASUS 32” QDOLED. If only they had a capture card that could support the pass through 😩
great
Bad news or good news for you?
The supplied stand is poorly designed. That sharp angle of the forward legs is dumb, they should curve around from the center to give more space underneath the center of the display.
One would think
I remember back in the day, I use to pwn boys nonstop at 60hz on Goodwill thrift store monitors on an old AMD X2 3800. Probably helped that I was running the game server only 8 feet away from me. Perks of being a game developer and computer programmer. Designing the game was the play and the game for me. Actually playing the game was just play testing in real time with handy human targets in the game. If everything worked as expected, you went back to tweaking or creating as the Goddess Level Lord. Now adays kids got so much money, but couldn't hack their way out of a paper bag.
Lol, I was scrolling through TikTok last night.. and seeing some of the crap, girls and boys are doing, acting like cats and robots for money, I can definitely see your point not getting out of a paper bag. Pretty cool that you made a game, that’s a feat not many people can say. I have a pretty large eye for detail when it comes to the quality of a display, but I do not have a lot of experience on 144 or 240 Hz. I’ve been on 120 for quite some time and so the fact that I’m not used to anything higher is a good thing - screens are cheaper that way. I do plan on checking out that new Asus 4K OLED monitor though
Thanks you saved me the trouble of buying it witch would have ended up me going true the hasle of returning it
No doubt. I ended up selling mine to a local and bought the 42” LG C3. Much happier. Pocketed the rest
Respectfully, I find this video click baity. I’d downvote it but I don’t want to. All the reasons you gave are not Samsungs fault. When you use such titles, you make the product look bad when indeed, it’s all your fault/preference. A 4090 not being able to do 240Hz is not the Samsungs fault. The people who get this monitor are doing it for future proofing. They know the nvidia gpu limitation. Your small desk is not Samsungs fault. Your preference for oled is not the monitors fault. The difference in display technologies is well documented. You want better colours, go oled. You want higher brightness, you go Mini led. I kinda feel all these reasons are ones most buyers know ahead of making a purchase.
I never once said anything bad about the monitor. Everything I mentioned was of my own preferences. Even said at the beginning that it was wonderful. But thank you for the feedback.
@@Kodysseyyeah but even the information you gave is overwhelmingly untrue. Do more research before posting these videos.
I have asus rog strix 4090 oc edition, and it has 2.1a hdmi
HDMI yes.. not 2.1 Display Port
So I need to add something here regarding the use of this monitor with HDMI 2.1 or DisplayPort 1.4, and getting 240hz at 4K or the half 8K this monitor is. Supposedly with DSC (Display Stream Compression, you CAN run 240hz with 4090. I do not have this monitor anymore, so I cannot test this. However, since this is a compression (lossless or not), it “to me” is NOT a native 4K image. It’s doing some weird magical ju-ju, software witchcraft to let you do this. For professional use, this is not recommended. If you’re just the average gamer who needs a massive display like this, sure.. go for it. With that, I stand by what I say still. This monitor will not run TRUE native 4K on a 4090 at 240hz. Only a possibility with DSC enabled. If someone wants to make a video of this, with a 4090, running a game at 240hz 4K on this monitor DSC or not, please tag me in the video or include video link. Ill check it out and if it’s legit, ill make an update video and give said person a shout on it, and link their video for credit.
le problème proviendrait d’un souci lié avec le DSC, un système de compression d’image, et le nombre de pipelines des RTX 40. Visiblement, ces derniers seraient insuffisants pour compresser efficacement l’image, car sans compression, une telle résolution à cette fréquence nécessiterait une bande passante de 109,68 Gbit/s, or le DisplayPort 2.1 permet une bp de 77,37 Gbit/s contre 48 Gbit/s pour l’HDMI 2.1. Ainsi, lorsque la RTX 4090 tente d’afficher du 7680×2160@240 Hz, un goulet d’étranglement se forme au niveau de la compression et ça ne fonctionne pas bien.
DSC is lossless and it's hard to avoid nowadays. Since it's lossless, I don't know if it's a real problem. I may be using it right now, since I'm using HDMI 2.0 on a 4090 connected to a OLED G8 running at 3440x1440 ＠ 175 hz 10 bit. Unfortunately 4090 doesn't have HDMI 2.1.
@@fjorddenierbear4832the RTX 4090 absolutely has hdmi 2.1. You kidding?
A 4090 will do 5120x1440 at 240Hz on this monitor. You also can run 2 x 4k @ 120Hz in PBP, I've done it lots since getting the monitor on release day.
DSC is a lossless compression, so in layman's terms it is just a more efficient way of delivering the signal. Also you could have configured a custom resolution in Nvidia control panel to get a 16:9 4K option in games.
Everything is wrong in this video
Do tell?
He’s right, everything you explained is basically wrong. Probably should do a bit more research before posting.
Can i leave the plastic to get a GLOSSY screen? 😂
Try it, let us know how well it works 🤣
@@Kodyssey 😂😂 yeah I'll let you know if the fire department shows up
And why are you doing a free commercial for Samsung do you know how much money they are saving by you doing a review for free of their product do you know how much commercials cost 3-minute commercial cost hundreds of thousands of dollars but they save all that money you know how they get a KZhead to do it for free why don't you start charging these companies to do a review of their product because they're saving money getting you KZheadrs to do it for free stop thinking about click and Views and subscribers learn to get money from these companies ask yourself have you seen that monitor on TV commercial Channel 5 Channel 2 Channel 11 have you seen it no and you never will because they're not going to pay the money for a commercial they just get a KZheadr to do it for free
For me, it helps my channel to grow, and helpful info to the people. Eventually, I’ll reach to some companies for product sponsorship.
@@Kodyssey eventually what I said was soaked into you you don't understand and see my point right now but as far as you getting a sponsorship deal with a company that's never going to happen why because too many KZheadrs would do it for free my goal here is to spread the message so when everybody stop doing free commercials these companies will start paying you guys not only you but everybody that I see doing a free commercial I make the same post on their page as well and you say you do it to help your channel grow you already famous you already have a lot of clicks and views you already have lots of subscribers but just remember when it soaks in you will thank me later
Hey good video the one thing that's really not correct its on the min 4 when you talk you cant get the 4k experience that you really want. Thats really not a problem because to start with the monitor isnt a true 4k monitor but 2 QHD monitors attached together making the resolution of 5120 x 1440 and maintaining 240 hz refresh rate.
No sir, not correct. This is the 57”, not the 49”. The 57 is DUHD (Dual Ultra High Definition). It’s 2x 32” 4k monitors, side by side.
@@Kodyssey hummm i miss read the title sometimes it happens im sorry about that. The problem should be fixed on the Nvidia control panel then
skill issue
Huh?
