Odyssey OLED G9 Gaming Monitor G93SC

good isnt it

**1. How do you currently use your split-screen setup? (e.g., triple monitors, 32:9 with FancyZones, etc.)** I currently use a Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 G93SC mounted on an Ergotron monitor arm, partitioned using Microsoft PowerToys FancyZones. My typical layout is three zones: * Discord * Game of choice (Diablo II, WoW, RDR, or Microsoft Flight Simulator) * Web browser or utility window Occasionally I also use Picture-in-Picture to run my work laptop alongside my personal desktop, allowing me to stay connected to work communications while using my primary PC. For productivity, I often switch inputs and use the full 32:9 canvas for spreadsheets, documents, and development work. I’ve previously run a triple-monitor setup, but I ultimately found the bezels and physical footprint cumbersome compared to a single ultrawide display. I’m very interested in testing how a 52” display with additional vertical resolution improves both productivity workflows and immersive gaming. My system is powered by an RTX 4090, so I have the GPU capability to fully drive the display. Since I’m already using a 49” 32:9 OLED daily, I’d also be able to provide a direct comparison between 32:9 and the larger 21:9 5K2K format. **2. What is the advantage you expect from moving to a 52” 5K2K display?** The biggest advantage I expect is the extra vertical workspace and being able to keep more things open at the same time. For productivity, I often run several applications simultaneously while working remotely. A larger 5K2K canvas would allow me to comfortably display: * Two large Excel spreadsheets side-by-side * Microsoft Teams chat * Teams meetings * Email * Word documents * Chrome The added vertical space is especially important, as that is currently the biggest constraint with ultrawide monitors when working with spreadsheets or documents. On the gaming side, the extra real estate would allow flexible layouts such as: * Game window + Discord * Chrome or guides * Email or background applications For immersive titles like Microsoft Flight Simulator, Red Dead Redemption, or RDR2, I’m also excited to test the display in full screen mode to see how immersive it feels. If selected, I would immediately integrate the monitor into my work, school, and gaming setup and document my experience focusing on: * Vertical productivity improvements * Multitasking workflows * Gaming immersion * Real-world FancyZones layouts I would provide an honest review along with photos of my setup and workflow examples on Reddit.

I have a super ultrawide which is the 32:9 version and play in windowed mode at a 16:9 aspect ratio (Link to monitor: [amazon](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CDQMQQS2)). I have found that gaming on an ultrawide isn't always the greatest. You often have to wait for ultrawide support or have to download a patch to remove the letterboxing. I will say though that when it works it works incredibly well. So only get one if you're fine running ffxiv in windowed mode (and a lot of other games) and then having the occasional life changing moment of playing something in full ultrawide that truly "gets it" like I had with helldivers 2.

SC is great because its also TRUE black HDR. A lot dont know this but there is big difference with latest models that are also G9 but dont have true black but are cheaper price.

Simple. 49" for mostly work yes even if its OLED, burn in is not big problem if you set up correctly in settings. 45" if you do heavy gaming thou 49 isnt bad also. I have 49" G9 oled and i do both, mostly gaming and i like less aggressive curve. Perfect for work.

I have the odyssey g9 oled G93sc model without smart tv and it is great. If I want to play in 21:9 I can do that and just not use all the screen or I can use picture by picture mode to make 2/3 of the screen 21:9 and the last 3rd of the monitor for discord. Although it decreases from 240hz to 120hz when in pbp mode. I genuinely love this monitor. And alot of new games support 32:9 now.

I regret a little bit getting a super ultra wide 49inch odyssey G9. The monitor is awesome, but I mostly have PBP turned on with one part being a normal utrawide and the last slice for discord/etc. The issue is the monitor is 120HZ instead of 240HZ when in PBP mode and no HDR.

A smaller ultrawide would probably have been better for me and a secondary 16:9 monitor on the side.

i picked up a g93sc (oled samsung 49” 240hz) on amazon for like 550+tax between the $250 prime card sign up bonus, prime young adult 5% cashback, and the prime card 5% cashback

If you don't mind OLED, the Samsung G9 49" is a good pick, if not, go for the 57" IPS Odyssey. Neither curves are intense, I have the 49" OLED and it's outstanding

No worries dude 👍🏼 I wanted to get the g93 too but am glad i ended up with the g95 instead. Cant beat having a remote. Did you know you could black out the screen by giving the "picture off" command? Turns off the screen without turning off the monitor.

I would recommend the Samsung G9. I bought one last November and it's been serving me well as I deal with a ton of spreadsheets. Goes without saying that gaming on it is amazing. BUT, if you will be working with a lot of static pages, I would otherwise suggest the 52" Neo which is a Mini LED version of the 49" G9 to avoid any burn-in anxiety. It's for this reason that I put a 2nd Mini LED monitor on top of my G9. Anything static i need reference to lives on that monitor.

I wend from a 34" ultrawide to a 49" g9 and i really love it. That said though, oled is not the best for productivity due to burn-in risks. For this reason, I added a 27" ips mini led on top of it. I mainly deal with lengthy excel sheets so i can really appreciate the extra wideness of the 49". To further reduce the risk of burn in though, I use the 2nd monitor for anything static i need referencing to such as static excel sheets, emails, websites, spotify, etc. If you have a lot of static windows in your workflow, i would suggest the 57" g9 neo which is a mini led version of the g9, albeit a bit bigger.

The curve is a bit much for me and I prefer the format of the G9. Looks great, though! Congratulations on your new monitor, dude!
