45GR75DC-B

I feel like my UltraGear (45GR75DC-B) has the perfect curve for its size, it's a 1500R. It's actually a bit less curved than I'd like, but I also don't feel encapsulated by it like I did when I was looking at the more curved models, and it looks better on my desk too. I use it for productivity, media consumption, and gaming, and it seems like the happy medium for all 3 at the 45" size. I looked at the 800R panels, and I actually just can't believe people like it for anything other than gaming.

I stumbled across another, more modern one. [https://www.amazon.com/LG-45GR75DC-B-45-inch-Ultragear-Monitor/dp/B0CGFD39D1](https://www.amazon.com/LG-45GR75DC-B-45-inch-Ultragear-Monitor/dp/B0CGFD39D1) Bit expensive but it's gone on sale for $200 off this price a few times in recent months.

I run an LG QHD 32:9 45" 1500R and love it. Way less messing around with view angles, FOV, and all that complex mounting crap.

I'm using an oled now, but my 200hz 45" LG VA 32:9 panel is bright and has very accurate color when calibrated correctly and oversaturated colors that some people seem to enjoy if desired. It had a slight VA blur trail on fast moving objects, but at 200hz it was imperceptible to me outside of anything but a test designed to highlight it. Modern VA panels are much better than they used to be.

I thought about 32:9 when I had my first 21:9 which was a 34, and was like... this isn't enough vertical space, I thought about S:UW and then i saw the 45" LGs, found the 1440 one on ebay for a damn fine price and man, I don't think 32:9 would be a very good choice for me, this 45 is PERFECT and mines only 1440, as 5k2k is overkill for what I can generally afford, or feel comfortable affording.

I have the 1440 one and I have no issues, I also only paid $600 for it, I could never justify the cost of the 5k2k, maybe when the tech gets lower in price... but for now... naw. If the cost wouldn't kill me I'd go 5k2k in a heart beat.
