Currently using a LG 45GR65DC-B. Though the 21:9 ratio along with OLED is the sweetspot for me. Best for both gaming and productivity.
r/ultrawidemasterrace β’ [Real-User Invite] LG UltraGear 5K2K GX9: The Ultimate Sweet Spot of UltraWide OLED Gaming Monitor ->Iβm in the same boat and I am in love with my LG 45GR65DC-B. 5120x1440 resolution in a slightly smaller form factor (45β instead of the typical 49β you see this resolution come in). Great PPI, great image. USB-C + KVM is so convenient.
r/ultrawidemasterrace β’ Does the perfect Ultrawide monitor for productivity first and gaming second exist? ->I love it, for my uses. My M2 Mac mini had 32" Dell Ultrawide (HDMI 3440x1440 60Hz) and a 45" LG Ultrawide (DP 5120x1440 60Hz). The HDMI wouldn't do 5120x1440. I recently upgraded to the M4 Pro Mac mini and it's running the same monitors but with the inputs reversed, because the Dell can only do 60Hz, and the LG can do 200Hz, which it now does, over HDMI. I do believe the base M4 Mac mini can run this same setup.
r/macmini β’ Mac Mini with an ultrawide monitor? ->Don't get an OLED, as good as it is for gaming and movies it is bad to read texts on. Samsung odyssey g9 or lg UW dual qhd, both are great
r/Monitors β’ Please reccomend an ultrawide monitor with good text clarity ->I like my ultragear 45 for productivity except the resolution is a bit low. I think this'll be a great upgrade.
r/ultrawidemasterrace β’ My early impressions video covering the new LG 45GX950A 5K2K Monitor π ->The LG 45". I got two its awesome:)
r/simracing β’ 1440p OLED ultrawide recommendations? ->I'm using a 49" G9 and it's not "tall" enough (in pixels), plus it's not OLED. I think the LG 45" fixes both of those things for me! I really like the 1000R on the G9 so I'm excited about 800R, but haven't seen it in person yet.
r/ultrawidemasterrace β’ [Real-User Invite] LG UltraGear 5K2K GX9: The Ultimate Sweet Spot of UltraWide OLED Gaming Monitor ->Why not use both. I own the ultra gear 45 curved i plan on stacking a g9 on top of that. Thought it would look cool but after reading all this seems I'll have that be my dedicated pc monitor instead
r/ultrawidemasterrace β’ LG5K2K Review (Samsung G9 OLED Owner) ->you can usually catch a samsung g95c for like 799 on amazon 49" 240hz 5120x1440 at 32:9 i loved mi e but the VA panel died after 3 years but over 15000 hours of uptime. I wouldnt go less than the lg 45" for a true bezel-less dual monitor experience
r/ultrawidemasterrace β’ How big of a monitor do I need to replace a dual screen setup? And whatβs the most budget option ->I miss mine, to an extent. The second they release this monitor with a 1000r curve screen I'm ditching my LG ultragear 21:9 for it.
r/ultrawidemasterrace β’ Samsung G9 49β OLED 144Hz ->Been an avid 21:9 user for like 4yrs and can't go back, only drawback is that I'm still in the OG 3440x1440 group and want a bit more crispiness to the text (OLED) and a smidge more screen real-estate. So far I've had the LG UltraGear, the Alienware one, then the Samsung G8 (current). Been eyeing a 5k 2k for a long time and curious to hear other reviews (if I get sent one LG, I will deep dive so hard into the things that I look for in a panel so be warned lol). OLED brightness, HDR, VRR, color banding are things that are very important to nail so praying ya'll nailed it. I used a Dell 32:9 (forget the model) and returned it within a week. Tried to make it work, but didn't like that it's a huge performance hit for the added peripheral you technically never use and for normal day to day, hurts my neck moving windows around. And thats before I get into getting games to do 32:9 was a nightmare vs 21:9. So sweet spot if you're a gamer imho is 21:9 -- perfect FOV to performance for modern mid-high end+ GPU's.
