I’d frequently get a black screen which was unrecoverable unless I rebooted into safe mode and uninstalled the driver. I was also having problems with NVIDIA surround and my 2080 RTX ti. Samsung G9 installed and running beautifully My 27″ triples were good, but not as high res as the Samsung is. There’s something about triples, if you’re time poor like I am, you always find yourself messing around with settings for longer than actual racing. To be honest, I’ve always found the extra cables and messing around with bezel alignment to be painful enough to find frustrating. You might be wondering why I’ve updated from triple monitors to a single 49″ ultra-wide. It also doubles as a joystick to control the onboard settings menu.Īround the back: Samsung use a glossy back plate with a built-in cable tidy Triple monitors vs a 49″ Ultra Wide The power button is located on the bottom edge of the case to the left. Around the back, there are two DisplayPort connectors, an HDMI port and two USB 3.0 ports as well as the main socket.

It’s about 1m wide in a beautifully finished case with a white glossy plastic back and a built-in cable tidy.

My NVIDIA 2080 RTX ti had absolutely no problems with the screen running in HDR at full resolution at 240hz. The only potential drawback with the G9 is that you’ll need a good GPU. The pixel density level (109ppi) is only slightly lower than a proper 4K screen, so this is more than enough for gaming. Samsung G9 mounted on Sim-Dynamics 8020 rig The G9 is our favourite gaming monitor in our buyer’s guide, for good reason. The refresh rate goes up to 240hz, with a response time of 1ms and, it’s Nvidia G-Sync® compatible too. The G9 is a pure gaming monitor, with all the important gaming specs you’d expect from a flagship device. The Samsung G9 is a 49 inch, 1000R, 5120px by 1440px HDR QLED display with a 32:9 aspect ratio which is roughly equivalent to two 27″ 2560 by 1440 monitors. I was lucky enough to buy mine with a 15% discount on but it still hurt the wallet at just north of £1,000 for a monitor! Gaming monitor heaven: Samsung Odyssey G9 As part of my new rig build, I upgraded my triple monitors to a single 49″ monitor, the Samsung Odyssey G9.
