Samsung CHG9 Series LC49HG90DMNXZA - LED monitor - curved - 49"

Wow, wow, wow! The sheer enormity of this screen hits you when the box arrives on your doorstep, it's simply immense. As a tip I would recommend moving the box to the room in which the monitor will live and then proceed to unboxing it. Follow the unboxing instructions included on the box as this simplifies everything. I had it all setup in around 15-20 minutes (including cabling up) On the subject of cables, you get everything you could possibly want cable-wise included, however, getting to the connectors can be tricky when it's in situ so I would recommend inserting the cables whilst the monitor is still on it's front in the box. This also holds true for sorting out the excellent (but tight!) cable management built into the monitor. Time to fire it up... OK, initial disappointment as the resolution wasn't readily recognised .I have an Nvidia GTX1060 8GB card and although the Nvidia suite noted the correct resolution it clearly wasn't actually displaying at that resolution. So I headed to good old Windows display control, set the resolution there and voila! A M A Z I N G !! and that was just the desktop. Now time to put this beast through it's paces... Forza Horizon 4. Simply put, playing on this scale at a desk really does negate the need for VR. After playing for just a few minutes you really feel you are there! It just about engulfs your whole field of view. Time to take to the skies in XPlane 11. Again, just like being in the aircraft and a far superior jump up from a 3 screen setup. Just needed to play with the FOV (field of view) setting during a paused game to get the most realistic view of the cockpit. Couple these visuals with realistic flight controls and you could feel like you are flying literally anywhere! Finally time to shoot some bad guys... Gears of War 4. Big, immersive, edge of your seat action on an epic scale. I set all the games to the native resolution running everything in Ultra with no problems. Some people have commented that the 1080 vertical aspect is not as expected but to run anything higher, height wise, would exclude so many people, other than those with ultra high end PCs from utilising the screen. A wise decision on Samsung's part I think. To conclude then, If you're a gamer, video or photo editor or currently have 2+ screens to work on, give this monitor your attention. You won't be disappointed, the future is curved!

In my opinion Samsung CHG90 is perfect device to enhance your PC/Gaming Experience. Now thanks to 49 inches screen I'm able to browse multiple websites at the same time, playing game and having a guide to it opened on the second half of the screen. The amount of new possibilities and combination with setting up your display is enormous. Also playing on full screen 3840x1080 is fantastic. Any racing,strategy or action adventure games which supports HDR looks stunning and immersive, which on first pirson shooter games thanks to ultra-wide screen you have a small advantage of having a wider visibility. CHG90 is also good in photo programs which makes modifying/editing photos much easier, thanks to good resolution you can see much more details and also colours are enhancement which is really important if we are valuing high quality in every aspect. One of the many CHG90 major features is HDR, which any software which is compatible looks beautiful. The only downsizing of the Samsung Ultrawide is lack of 4K resolution but that means that you don't have to have a top tier graphic card, any average will handle latest games fine. CHG90 is 144hz monitor so the difference in smoothness is gigantic which you are able to see a difference even in desktop. With FreeSync 2 module any AMD graphic card user will get even smoother framerate in video games.
