The 5K2K is an absolute beast for productivity. I’ve been using it for the past 3 weeks probably 70/30 productivity/gaming. Haven’t had a text clarity issue a single time. That’s writing code, using one note, CLIs, shitty 1080p RDP is still even pretty good. The space this thing has for windows is absolutely insane. I paired it with a vertical 24” for some of my static work elements like Slack and Outlook and I’m never looking back. I picked mine up for $1,400

I PowerPoint zero percent. I do use excel and databases constantly. Hasn’t bothered me a bit. The first day you use the monitor it feels super weird but after 10-15 hours of use you don’t even notice the curve at all.

Gotta be honest it runs pretty good with my 4070. There’s a select few AAA titles that it struggles with like the new Final Fantasy main line game but honestly I haven’t had many issues. Obviously not playing on max but the quality is good.

I just for the 45 inch 5k2k and man I love this thing. Editing photos on it has been a blast.

Aww man. Sad to hear you didn’t like yours but nothing wrong for not. For me it’s been an adjustment, coming from a 27 inch 1440p to this. The extra real estate for editing photos and being able to see my entire timeline as well as preview in Davinci has been insane.

As a GX9 user, I love the extra height. I use it for photo editing and doing some video editing on resolve. It’s really good, the space helps a lot.

I took the plunge 5 years ago and got a 49inch ultrawide monitor, and honestly it’s great. However, there are a few things to keep in mind. I had tried a curvature of 800R and it was too much for me, so I went with a Samsung C49RG90 which has a lighter curve, and that’s perfect. That said, one thing becomes an issue over time: the lack of height. With a 32:9 screen you get a lot of horizontal space, but in my opinion not enough vertical space, and the ideal format would actually be 21:9. LG released what is almost the perfect monitor, the LG 45GX950, but the curvature is too pronounced for my taste. It’s tricky because some people will love a curve like that. Also it’s crazy expensive. In short, the first thing I would consider is the screen height.

This monitor is not good… i had it for a week and thought i had an issue with my gpu or something.. its do dim.. i guess the woled is just extremely dim… so i returned it and got a samsung odyssey g9 neo 58 inch 4k… and i loveeeee It

I have a 5080 and a 5K2K and nothing is really “tough” to run on it. You just aren’t going to be able to crank everything to the max, and you know what? That’s ok.

Upgraded from the DWF. I felt like the curve would be to extreme as well. But having used the 5K2K for about two months now I can say that the curve is more immersive and it doesn’t bother me at all. Get the 45.
