    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    I haven't spent the time trying to narrow down what's going on. I think Windows just hangs badly because even pressing the power button doesn't make Windows go into its shutdown operation as it normally would when the system isn't hung.

    I don't know if I'm the only one having this power saving mode problem. I'm using the latest firmware: 1009.2. The problem was there when using earlier versions as well. Regular mode - not PiP.

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    I use the included DP 2.1 cable. It's long-enough to reach my PC. I run it at 240Hz. My video card is 5090. There is a problem with power saving. When Windows turns off the monitor, the OS freezes (or at least that's what I think is going on). I just disable turning off the monitor. Not great...

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    Not improwise, but I own two of these 57" monitors. The image quality is great when facing the middle of the screen, but it gets seriously washed out when viewed at an angle. I don't find it to be a problem other than when I try to show something on the screen to someone, and they're not...

    LG Unveils UltraGear evo 39GX950B, 27GM950B and 52G930B

    27" is a bit small, though...

    Asus PG32UCDM3

    This is a very nice monitor, but the issue that kills it for me is the stand design. The panel sits very high even at its lowest position: 21" from the desk to the top of the panel. They raised it even further than what it was in the previous model which was already too high. I don't know what...

    Question about scaling for anyone with a 5K or 6K monitor

    Not sure what 32" 6K buys you vs 4K. Text is a bit sharper (a noticeable, but not huge difference). Features (high-refresh rates, HDR quality) are lacking for 6K. You don't get more work area - the scaling factor needs to be increased.

    They're on different desks connected to different computers in different rooms.

    Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 57" 7680x2160 super ultrawide (mini-LED)

    I have two of the 57" monitors, and neither generates much heat. I'm surprised to read about "crazy heat" - not at all my experience. Also, my units don't look washed out in either SDR or HDR. Since it's a VA panel, it will look washed out at an angle, but not when viewed at the normal angle of...

    LG 39GX950B 39" 5120 x 2160 OLED 165hz Ultrawide

    I hope you're right. Glossy panels are so much better (under the right room light conditions).

    LG 39GX950B 39" 5120 x 2160 OLED 165hz Ultrawide

    Thanks, but the video says LG will use the matte panel in their monitor. They will also make a glossy version of the panel, but there's no mention of who will offer it in a monitor. I hope ASUS does it. Like I said, LG makes a glossy version of their 32" 6K panel, but no one offers that in a...

    LG 39GX950B 39" 5120 x 2160 OLED 165hz Ultrawide

    Who's going to sell a monitor with the glossy version? I read that LG has no such plans. Who knows if and when some other company will decide to do it - glossy monitors are rare. LG also makes a glossy version of their 32" 6K panel, but I think only the Chinese monitor maker Kuycon uses it.

    Dell UltraSharp 52 Thunderbolt Hub Monitor - U5226KW

    The top of the screen is almost 23" high at the lowest position on the stand. This is hard on the neck even with a low desk.

    Ok, I checked out that thread. This problem doesn't exist on mine.
