yep, 100%

Erm no?! You want A TV! with better monitor specs than that? Ultra wide is ass for gaming and movies. because as a FULL screen it doesn't give the same immersion as the increased height of a TV. It's also less viable having to look into the corners at HUD elements. It's objectively making you worse as a "competitive" gamer. As a multi task unit, this monitor is king. Maybe not to the same degree as the G9 55"? I Believe. But it's absolutely in that same arena and damn close to it. Multi task set ups DO NOT CARE ABOUT refresh, response time or other gamer features. But this has them still, ANNNND it has better immersion because of the height. For gaming, it's a better angle than the ultra wides, almost as fast response and nearly top end refresh. If you ONLY want the absolute best then ofc you go with a 32" 1080p beast to compete. If you want gaming or film immersion then you are going to go with a G4 EVO 77" at the cost of response, refresh and picture in picture. But yet again this monitor has features of all of these AT THE TOP LEVEL. You are absolutely dreaming if you expect a pro gamer CS.GO 1080p speed monitor, multi task monster and immersion display to be in one package. However, I'll say this again, this does all of them at near the top end. What this reviewer is essentially asking for is compartmentalized refresh rates on the panel which doesn't exist. What idiot any is running a PS5 then complaining his gaming PC screen is running at 60fps at the same time. You aren't playing both so it's a "problem" for the sake of finding one. TURN THE PS5 OFF IF YOU ARE GAMING ON PC! Multi task users PC displays will use one PC input and use THE FULL SCREEN and move tabs to a desired location. A console gamer will/may have a PC open for guides or streaming or watching KZfaq and the console in another picture running at 60 or 120, whichever the console desires. Or it will be full screen for immersion. I mean if you are seriously complaining that KZfaq in the background is running at 60 or in nost cases 120 fps. You have bigger issues irl. I'm not even trying to be mean. The guy already said he could use a G9. well if you play console as well THIS IS BETTER! The only issue feom the V1 Ark was the fact you couldn't do PC and console picture in picture This has been fixed. This monitor is an absolute beast FOR THOSE that can utilize it. If you are a first time golfer, you wouldn't buy a 15 grand set of golf clubs because you won't use them properly. This from ny research IS the defacto one size fits all. It isn't for 244hz Red Dead or GTA 5 modded to fk PC snobs that can't see a difference anyway. It isn't for the die hard movie buffs. That ONLY care about perfect colour and screen size at 20 fps. It isn't for the next 0.3ms response 244hz "pro Fortshite" player making it on Twitch. It isn't for the ULTIMATE single player console user or "all the gear no idea dad" that wants to flex. But if you value ALL those things at a tend end but not THE ABSOLUTE PEAK then quite literally nothing beats this. This is all objective fact.

@@JoNNyCLOUD171 love the monologue, read the first sentence only 😂😂

@@JoNNyCLOUD171 tldr

Are you disappointed yet?

Can you in gaming mode 32:9 Select an application (KZfaq )from the monitor itself, and pin it to the top?

@MrLokonEx sadly no you can not. If your in 32.9 that's the only thing you can view

@@xaviergall2233 Thank you!

Thanks for explaining that! It's really a shame we have to find out about this inductively since Samsung gives 0 documentation.

3 screen works better than it did on the gen 1, and you can now also do 4 screen when in horizontal. I have my PC on 2 windows, apple tv on the 3rd, and my switch on the 4th lol

How much did you pay? Thinking about it it

Would p-i-p mode allow a random sizing of the second input? That way maybe the main input can have one full screen and second input (picture in picture) can adjusted to 32:9 manually? Samsung really needs to upgrade it is screen sizing for multi input mode.

Thanks for the technical breakdown Daniel! I assume we can get 2 screens since the max is 240hz so 120hz * 2? Ultimately I wish Samsung would publish this data more publicly. The refresh rate at 3/4 screens isn't a huge issue at 60hz, but the latency is the real killer.

How's it been since you received it?

So Far the experience has been bleeding edge compared to what I had but my frustrations have been tested. The OS does not like Nvidia drivers when they are looking to match refresh rates with Game Mode. Dual inputs breaks this when tested with a G7 Laptop. Did not bother doing his frameless setup. I got mine to the 165hz but 4K will vary on your games. Screen tearing happens on some games with some stutters but I am running everything air cooled aside from a base clocked AIO-i7-8770k 3.7Ghz Ram is awkward full slotted 48Gb DDR4 hand me downs

Also the dumbest engineering team at Samsung decided to put a freaking 10/100 Ethernet port on the bloody box. I am heavily debating on returning the thing on that alone. The audio quality is nice but you have to waste wireless bandwidth or get a type-c to Ethernet to maybe get over 500mbps. Maxed 300 on my first Speedtest with the native browser. Works but not 4K 60 full stream with no issues cloud gaming like advertising. Also their data sheet and e-manual avoid the specs intentionally and IMO have a good lawsuit on their hands if anyone knows a good lawyer to connect me with lol.

Got downloaded references for everything and willing to PowerPoint with people who are interested. Louis Rossmann would be fun to work with.

@@Bbomby Why would you connect an ethernet to the Ark instead of whatever PC you're using?

Would you suggest someone buy this?

@@rob2theworld with the prices that it's at now definitely

That's no possible from my understanding

Unfortunately no,=

Why would u need a extension? That cable is crazy long as is.

Maybe I'll get one of those super Ultrawide and a normal TV instead to go above

I tried that on my G9 but couldn't get two full screen videos instead clicking full screen just put one video over both woth jack bars.

Nothing else can be displayed with 32:9 sadly. But man this monitor is so cool. Well worth the cost

Yes!!

Wrong. At the time of release almost no TVs had HDMI 2.1 This did. It has undoubtedly faster response and clearly as stated faster refresh at 165hz. It was bigger. It had a curve (helps with gaming immersion). It probably had better colour accuracy (I'll bet money on it). It probably had more PPI. It had a "cock pit mode" which is actually a valuable feature for most that buy this. It probably had future proofing your TV doesn't have. It probably has a first party panel IE not bought in from a lesser stock from Samsung as LG an Samsung are truly the only viable panel makers. This also means it comes with proprietary software and features to enhance the image. Shall I continue? Listen bro, I get ya. It's not for you. But I would wager your 700 Dollar pile of crap could have been as good as a 200 Dollar pile of crap and you wouldn't have known. The reason I say this is because that price range is 9/10 an idiot trap. My LG C4 was over a grand and it was the best TV that year. The next legitimate tier down at the time would have a range from 300 to 900 Dollars and each TV would have been near identical. The price is irelavent. The specs decide a TV /monitors value and I bet your 700 range TV would have absolutely been a similar spec to a 300 Dollar TV bro.

Yeah desk is a big consideration. I don’t really see a big benefit of the ark outside of the 16:9 for fullscreen pc gaming (which is only necessary if the pc game doesn’t support 21:9). Then with the ark you have some support for multi view although it’s limited by HZ and latency. (Not to mention resolution issues with 4x 1080p sources)

It 100% won't be oled like they will be greyish.

he’s an idiot 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

That's the perk. It's not hiding anything. It does nearly the best of both and for the best you are paying close to this EACH anyway. What TV is doing 244hz? None. 165 is peak. But then what console is doing 4k 120? None. At the the time this and only a handful of TVs supported HDMI 2.1 soooooo. What T.V.is running competive response times? Nearly zero. What monitor is running that TV height or immersion? None. What monitor has TV colour accuracy for movies IN OLED FORMAT! Nearly zero. Yeah mate this is just a random hodge podge of parts left over, derp. It's actually a one size fits all premium piece of kit.
