Odyssey 57. Real estate is insanely boosting for multi app productivity.
57 solo. The comfort of having so much space with one screen is unmatched.
1. Get a nice monitor arm that doesn’t wobble. 2. Get a dp2.1 to usb c cable 3. Haven’t had any issues
Can confirm with caveats. You will need a DP2.1 to usb c cable to properly get the full resolution. However if you do, you’re stuck with either native scaling (looks to small) or 1080p high dpi (ui looks too big). Both look off. The sweet spot is going for a looks like resolution of 5120x1440p or something similar but then you’re stuck at lodpi. Now there’s a way to fix that which involves getting an app better display and creating a virtual screen that you’re mirroring to your actual display to get HiDPI at 1440p. The downside of that is you’re limited to 60 hz but since you aren’t gaming it’s not a deal breaker. Also I get occasional kernel panics that I’m sure if it’s because of my monitor or something else.
I have the 57" Neo G9, and I love it so much. I've had it a couple years. I don't even game, I just ADHD.
This is what I did since triples is, at best, a pain in the ass to set up for every game I wanted to play at my rig. So I got the odyssey g9 57”, and run reshade with Perspective Correction so that the curvature around the edges is flattened back out and the horizontal FOV is perfect. Now games are easy to just load up, set the resolution, and go. TLDR: if you play other games with less-than-stellar triple support, I’d recommend.
Get the G9 49" or 57" if budget is no issue. Mac can easily run ultrawide. Download BetterDisplay and you will be fine.

Si tienes sitio y puedes el Samsung Odyssey G9 de 57 pulgadas, yo lo llevo desde hace dos años y para el simracing es lo mejor
Here is what you may not know.. I have an OG Odyssey G9 (and this applies to all these super sized monitors). You will not always be running full screen real estate for all games. 1) Many games do not support UW (many Souls-like games) and you will be stuck with a central portion. Which means that your card only needs to support 1440 or 4K depending on wheter it would default back to 1440 or 4K. 2) You still have this option if your GPU cant push enough frames for your liking. 3) Many games that aren't pinnacle AAA games, you can still get a higher than expected frame rate in super ultrawide. In my opinion, getting a monitor that is base 4K ultrawide is the right choice, even with a 4080 tier or above card. In my case, I have a 7900xtx. The games I play in 5120X1440 suw have plenty of fps to spare and i usually run a frame limiter anyway. The games that don't support suw, I would rather be playing in 4K than 1440. I would get the 5K2K monitor or even the 57" Odyssey G9 monitor. The worst case scenario is you have to run in the middle, use upscaling/frame gen, or reduce options.
I have both, but made the switch to the 45" and haven't looked back. I just couldn't deal with the blooming.
I have both. The 57" G9 has been sitting in its box in my attic since I got the LG 5K2K. The G9 gets very hot if you use HDR. Noticeably hot. 5-10° over ambient in my case. I prefer 21:9 over 32:9, but that's a person preference thing. I also really like the LG's taller profile and tighter curve for gaming. I find it a lot more immersive. The biggest factor: I *hate* blooming. But I'm very sensitive to it.
Had last year a LG ultra wide screen 49”. Invoice 1200€. Was perfect…. Now for sale 850€. Replaced it with a Samsung 57” ultra wide Odyssey Neo G9 screen 1750€
I am not going to talk you out of it because I have the 57" and the size is so, so good.
