Odyssey Neo G9 G95NC

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.

I have a neo g9 57 and a liquide cooled Rtx 4090. And yes I struggle to run games like crimson desert at 4k lol. Not even talking about playing fullscren. I'll wait for the 6000 serie for that.

57" Neo G9 acting up, no warranty — fix or upgrade? https://preview.redd.it/6tvucw3cropg1.png?width=815&format=png&auto=webp&s=a2ad0ffe4ec8fcdbc31ab3931023fa474968bf94 My Odyssey Neo G9 57" started showing this display issue (pic attached). Out of warranty. Anyone seen this before or know a fix? -- so you can't tell because its a static image but basically it starts to dim from light to very black in that one area and it comes and goes.. i've tried updating to latest software, resetting the entire thing.. turning off anything regards to local dimming and still nothing. **If it's toast, I'm deciding between:** • LG 52G930B (52" VA, 5K2K, 240Hz) • LG 45GX950A (45" WOLED, 5K2K, 165Hz) Mainly use my PC for work (coding, trading, etc) but also play games every now & then (souls-likes, MMOs, open world stuff, shooters, etc) so OLED is tempting but going from 57" to something smaller sounds painful. The 21:9 aspect ratio does gain vertical height over 32:9 though. Anyone make this kind of switch? Worth it for OLED or should I just go big with the 52" VA? Open to any other suggestions too. pricing really isn't an issue just want the best that's available.

yeah that's one of my main concerns with just getting another one, although not completely a paper weight (yet - the black fade comes and goes) I thought spending the amount of money I did on the G9, that it wouldn't have died or had issues only 2 years & some months later.

Got the 57" G9 and loving it.

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.

So in my mind: You can compromise and get a regular non ultrawide. Then, I think 5k 27 inch monitors or 4k 27 inch monitors do exist, but you're gonna need a hefty graphics card to properly play games on either. Then you could compromise on refresh rate, 60 hz is gonna be way easier to power especially with some type of upscaling along with it. If you insist on ultrawide, you're simply not gonna hit the required PPI so you're gonna have to compromise on that. The best you're gonna get there is 5k2k 40 inch monitors like the LG OLED one, the Odyssey G9 57 at 8k2k. Both are at around 140 ppi so not great, but still very nice for productivity. Now if you need accurate colors, none of the gaming monitors will guarantee good colors, but if you're able to manually calibrate it that might be the way forward. If you can't manually calibrate it, it might be better to buy an office intended monitor like the dell 40 inch 5k2k, but then you lose mini-led/oled functionality.

Samsung has somehow managed to make a VA panel that doesn’t smear in their high end monitors like the G9. My g9 Neo is seriously the best of both worlds. Contrasty and not smeary.

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.
