Samsung 32:9 HDR 49inch Ultrawide PC Monitor Display
- Thread starter Zedox
- Start date
will the 32" monitor work with the xbox scorpio features?
2 x the price of the higher (vertical) resolution Dell U3417W FR3PK though. This samsung, I just can't see a way to justify it for productivity vs the Dell or any other decent ultrawide 1440p screen.
And for gaming, I'd probably rather just have one of the new 1440p G-sync ultrawides
Still really cool that this huge thing exists.

Won't this have trouble being supported by most PC games? Never owned anything but 16:9.
It's comparable to 27" (1920x1080) in terms of pixel density, but yeah, still naw.

Comes with FreeSync 2, and with quite a range too (30-144).
I'd say it should be mentioned in OP.

Need it in Gsync.
Or I need AMD to actually show up with a GPU worth getting over Nvidia's.

Or mining craze to settle...
AMD GPUs faster than 1070 and 1080 will likely come Aug this year.

Didn't think about it but with that exact resolution, you're right. It's a curved tv sliced, lol.

Maybe just in time for Nvidia's 1170 and 1180 to drop, as usual

Shit damn monitor manufacturers slow down, I haven't even had time to upgrade to 21:9 yet!

This!..
21:9 is great step up from 16:9 for racers. I've been waiting for this since announced.
Along with 2nd/3rd gen VR HMD with eye tracking & foveated rendering

such an epic display
How - it solves a very simple issue of two 16:9 displays in one display without bezels - absolutely ideal for all manner of video editing, work flow stuff and even for some gamers / enthusiasts that can find ample use for it.
As with anything like it, it will be super expensive unless / until it scales to an audience to drive cost down / also get over the usual enthusiast group profit (much like 21:9 back in the day). Of course this is by no means going to have popularity akin to 21:9, but it has definite usability and value.
I thought the same thing!
I'd have to get a new desk to accommodate that beast. 21:9 is really nice, I've been playing that way for over a year. Still disappointed by the official support of the resolution.
Does Flawless Widescreen support 32:9? It's a must have for UW gaming.

So for PC only? I thought it was general purpose and could be used with consoles. Nice it has FreeSync though. No infos about the amount of nits?
As long as the title doesn't lock your aspect ratio and it's custom resolution or natural to windows/monitor it should be recognized by most games. So basically whatever 21:9 gets should be the same here.
Almost purpose built haha!
If you are interested in the smaller monitors:

Damn. It's getting real. I'm really glad I've got in on that Samsung TV deal we had going on. I knew I needed something to hold me over until we really reached this next step.
I'll wait a little longer to see if LG offers an OLED TV that's 120hz+ and free sync. Then... well I'll pay a high price. Possessions will be sold to fund such a device.

PCMonitors.info says it's expected to release on June 30th, that's very early for a FreeSync 2.0 monitor. I thought FreeSync 2.0 wasn't coming out until 2018!
This one only has faux-HDR. No local dimming, only 600nits brightness, and doesn't meet the color standard for HDR

For as long as I'm gaming, I'd never buy a non gsync monitor, for as long as nvidia puts out the top performing card
