ROG Strix XG49VQ 49” Curved Gaming FreeSync Monitor 144Hz Dual Full HD HDR Eye Care with DP HDMI Black

Computer Spec: AMD 5700X CPU, AMD 7900XT GPU, 32GB RAM, 3840x1080 @144Hz Why buy this: - Play games in Ultrawide with two little side edge partitions for Discord and watching Twitch. It's so clean. - 1080p resolution; If you don't have a RTX4090 you can't drive an Odyssey G9 DQHD at anything more than ~40fps on High Settings in most AAA games. Whose paying $1500 to play at 40fps? - You need two monitors and like the idea of one big workspace. It's INCREDIBLY impressive when you sit down in front of this monitor. Why you shouldn't buy this: - You have a RTX4090, you should buy the Samsung Odyssey G9 - You can't afford it - You're ok with 60+FPS; get a single 27/32" 2K panel. It's a couple more pixels (~900k) so you'll lose some FPS compared to UWHD but that's the trade. Notes: - Wondering how you break up this monster into 2/4/8 windows? Windows Powertools FancyZones. It's free, made by MS, and works well. - When I bought this monitor I had a NVidia 3080, which had the juice to run UWHD at ~90fps. This specific monitor HATES G-sync on, massive blue ghosting around anything moving. Turn G-Sync off, get screen tearing. I sold my 3080 and bought an AMD7900XT, god's gift. No tearing with Freesync, no ghosting with Freesync on. Final Thoughts: You should get this monitor. It's an absolute delight and doesn't need a $4,000 rig to push130fps average in Cyberpunk 2.0 on Ultra with R/T Off. I mean, you still need a $2,000 rig but that's PC gaming.

Had this a few months and have really been impressed by the overall quality and at the time was wondering why I couldn't find reviews despite its list of top specs. Yes it has large plastic buttons to interface with on the back that feel a little cheap but there much better than joysticks that can break or even most dpads in my opinion. I was surprised to find very little backlight bleed for it being an IPS display. I was really set on OLED for the inky blacks but I couldn't really find much in the 24-27 range so I decided to give this a try and I'm glad I did. For reference I was coming from the Alienware 34 ultrawide which has been great and works well for less competitive games but its so wide you don't have a great FOV. Yes I do miss using it sometimes when playing story based games (just played the dead space remake) but I play more FPS so the trade offs of using the smaller IPS panel is worth it. The biggest annoyance which is fairly small is on boot up, the panel displays in a very large red box which port your connected to right in the middle of the screen which blocks the windows password log in, I haven't been able to figure out if that can be turned off. It does of course disappears soon after but its kinda weird its so prominent. p.s. I also tried the Samsung G4 which goes on pretty good sales but I personally didn't care for it, lots of backlight bleed

Simple as this, this monitor rocks and I push it to the limits with fast action and games that really play to the high refresh rates like racing games and ArmA 3. Some of the previous reviews are just product snobs about the fit and finish. To be honest when I'm playing a game I don't care what kind of plastic it is and I am not going to pay $4-500 more for a Samsung product that has only a better external finish. Without a doubt Samsung CH-90 is a nice monitor, but when the lights are off and I'm racing I don't care. I tested the Samsung and the biggest gripe I had was a ghosting effect at times on the outer edges with fast racing. Colors would bleed towards the outer 1/4 of the screen on both sides on the Samsung with action and the Asus does not. Clear picture through out even with fast action. FPS in full races would drop to 169-178FPS which if you don't know is important in a review. If you dip below the refresh rate for the monitor then you will encounter problems. With a 1080ti at max settings in iRacing and Assetto Corsa, the picture is dynamic and amazing. So if you want to listen to the 1star Product snob reviews who don't usually supply tech specs of what they are doing and some screenshot or single picture of their RPG low FPS game and call it crappy, who will you believe? Some person who decided to go and spend $500+ extra on a monitor just as capable because it had silver bezels and fanciness? I also use this monitor for work for 8-9hrs a day and the picture is great and has a great split screen feature i use with HDMI while using Display Port for gaming. One note most of the reviews won't tell you that states in the manual, to use Display Port and Not HDMI if you want refresh rates above 120hz. If you notice some of the reviews are done with HDMI capabilities and not Display Port as the flipping manual states to use. Anyhow have had this monitor since April and absolutely love it! Worth every penny compared to Samsung overpriced elitist CH90.

It is expensive compared to the competition however it has one of the sharpest and brightest displays out there. The colors are amazing and it is also pretty easy to setup and move around.

TL;DR/Key-points: This is a "super ultrawide" monitor. Dual 24-inch screen equivalency. Matte black finish over majority, gloss in areas you don't usually touch/look at. Thumb stick for menu navigation. 144Hz, 90% gamut. Not nauseating. HDMI and DP, cords included. Has power adapter and long cable. Comfortable curve. Adaptive-sync and Freesync supported, but not G-Sync. Full review Matte black finish over the vast majority of it, and the only gloss areas are in places you'll never touch. Screen has a very comfy curve and I haven't seen any glare at all. This thing has the usual ASUS tilt stick for the monitor settings menu which feels extremely natural, and is why I can't use any non-ASUS monitors unless they have it. Monitor comes with a lot of very helpful settings such as a few on-screen crosshairs for a big but ethically questionable advantage (as if that matters lol). The refresh rate is 144Hz so while the size may strain your neck a bit from looking around so much, your eyes will feel fine and it won't be nauseating unless you play at a low FoV. Some games don't work very well with a screen this wide due to improper game coding (I.E. stretching at the sides, compression in the middle), but games that are made right will look and feel GLORIOUS. Browsing the web can be a bit annoying for websites that have their content locked to the left- or right-hand sides, but sites that have centered content are a dream. The new mobile-like layouts will finally make sense to you. This monitor type is called a "super ultrawide", or a "doublewide" because it's the equivalent of two 24" screens joined together without the bezel. If you want the equivalent of two screens but don't want two monitors, or if you just want a lot of one-screen real estate, this is definitely the monitor for you. Keep in mind that the screen is almost 4 feet long and weighs like 50 pounds when considering it. The stand itself is about 2 feet wide and a foot long, so make sure to measure to see if you can fit it. Overall, it's a fantastic monitor and I can't see myself using anything smaller willingly. I don't like to give out 5-star reviews unless it's deserved, and this behemoth deserves a 5-star review.

BUENAS TARDES, LA PUBLICIDAD DE ESTE ARTICULO ES ENGAÑOSA, LA FECHA GARANTIZADA DE ENTREGA NO SE CUMPLE!

This monitor is amazing. Crisp images, brilliant accurate color rendering. Fast response time. The wide 3840 X 1020 resolution is perfect for gaming especiallly for gaming where periferal view adds to the immersion and playablility in MMORPGS, Racing Games, Shooters ... you name it. The fit and fiinsh are excellent as is the way the rear of the monitor hides cable and connedtions for a clean quality look. 5 out of 5 stars for sure.

Really surprised by the awesomeness of that monitor! HDR mode is fantastic! I will test with a few games soon but swapping my 3 separate 3D monitors for this one is a sinch! More physical space on my desk. Great quality price! Great esthétique! So far used for work and it’s already worth it!

I was excited to add this monitor to my existing array of monitors (5 others), where this monitor was to replace an older monitor that was starting to fail. I loved the quality of this monitor, being 49", it's a heavy beast but I managed to carefully pull it from the well packaged enclosure and connect it to my system. The first thing I saw was a red dot, smack in the center of the display and compared to all other monitors, the display was very washed out. Instead of returning the unit I called their support line and they were able to talk me through reset of the unit. That worked to eliminate the red dot, and when I removed HDR from Windows and the unit, the image looks amazing. So don't despair, if you have the same issues, it's likely just a reset (slight config changes) away from working like you'd expect. I am a software developer, so having this wide canvas is something I very much appreciate and should come to enjoy over time.
