I have been watching your YT channel for a couple of years and I just figured it out... your descriptions are always so practical and clearly stated, and you speak like your chatting to someone visiting at your place. Makes for great videos. Keep up the good work. Thank you.

Thanks! You're probably the best monitor reviewer out there as you put things into context as to what is good for the user and suggested settings rather than just going over all the random specs. Thanks!

I have not seen many monitor reviews on your channel. But out of all the reviews I have been looking for this monitor; your is the most conclusive one. Thank you

Always love your content!

I was expecting you to say “games LIKE WoW” but you have an even better answer!! 😝

Very good review really! You mentioned all the important factors for me. The response time was too high and price tag was too high when you can get a better monitor for not much more. When I buy a expensive monitor I want 10 bit and HDR as well. I was a little bit interesting in this monitor before, now I think I'll wait for a better/bigger one. I do have 2x 34" MSI Optix monitors today. Maybe I want to replace them in the near future.

Omg i cant believe how accurate you are, im a Wow player and want to buy 2 of this monitor

For a VA panel of this size and shape I would think the viewing angle would be horrendous? I've used curved VA panels before where one eye would see a slightly different shade of color than the other and it was really bad.

You missed that it does PbP and has a KVM built in.

i'm really interested in having my own gaming setup but mannn its so expensive

Not sure if it works for all aoc monitors, but my aoc 27g2u the osd with buttons are really wonky to use, but there was available for download software to controll everything called G-Menu from aoc, also had some settings not available in the osd.

I have this monitor with 165 hz version. Stuck on 120 hz. Unable to select 165 hz. I use 2.0 high bandwith cable. Any help?

Does it have any PIP or window snap functions like other monitors do?

WoW!

I think the microphone looks fine. We can't all use razer LED emote mics... some people like using quality audio products.

Can you make a video about all the relevant old Xeon cpu's with all the relevant motherboards for them for overclocking to look out for its all a little confusing tbh. You would help me out a great deal there thank you :)

Would you recommend using three 16:9 monitors side by side?

Not first, but waiting for heart reaction

I use a 29" ultrawide at 2560x1080 and its kinda max size I would use, its over 70cm wide!

The horrific fov-induced-stretching at the edges is a deal breaker for me - I'd hate to game on that . I have a triple screen setup but I almost never game with them in nvidia surround mode, for this reason. Triple screens are great for games/simulators that have proper multi-monitor support, but I suppose it isn't even possible to set this up like that because it can only act as two screens.

So would you want to use the sRGB?

0:59 Where did you get this wallpaper from? I want it!

With the OSD thing... why didn’t you use the included remote?

I got samsung's 49" last year, love it! best move ever

I see you're still using this monitor. Are you still happy with it? I am considering picking one up to replace my MSI 34" 1440P which I love. Mainly for work and racing games/ Five M/ GTA 5. Lightroom / Photoshop.

I'm addicted to WoW. And now I need to buy this massive curved monitor.

I really like immersion compared to smaller panels

gotta review that Samsung G9 !

Where'd you get the moving galaxy background?

Yeah I just got a 49" G9, great monitor (I dont use it for gaming) nice but 2 or 3 27"/24"screens are better for productivity IMO, you can only divide it by 2 (even if there are 3 ports (2 DP, 1 HDMI) which mean the "bezel" is in the middle, pretty annoying .Windows management software do not make up for it, many app want to go full screen (microsoft apps for example).My son loves it to play Fortnite/minecraft of course.

Will replace 3 x 24 with this size one day. I only use it for productivity and dont like the gap between the monitors.

I had one of these, and for productivity it was amazing. However for gaming, it was not so good. A lot of games do not support this aspect ratio, and a lot of those that do give a very distorted image on the edges. A lot of the time you end up playing games at 2560x1440p and end up playing with a 2 large blank bars. When set you G-Sync compatibility (as this is a Freesynch Premium monitor), the result is not always effective, often I would have to lock framerates to get the best result. HDR output is not that good because it's not 10bit. After 6mo I ended up buying an 38" Ultrawide instead (Alienware) which has a better picture, 144hz, HDR600 and G-Sync Ultimate. The AG49UCX is pretty good for most things, especially if you use MS Powertoys to allow window tiling (Its nice to run Word, Email, and a web browser at the same time). Also remember that watching movies or videos on this aspect ratio is not very good. There will never be proper game support for this monitor, as its too niche.

Yeah thats the Issue I have with my 49 inch samsung g9 and that the image is stretched on the sides in most of the games which kinda sucks but for racing games its really sick and I dont mind playing fps on it

I just traded an h100i v2 for a 1060 3gb, the last part my roommate needed for his budget pc! Now we get to grind reminant from the ashes together lol

i got a intel asus motherboard lga 1151 8th and 9th gen with 8gb ddr4 ram and m2.0 for $99 also you do nice videos

For sure. I think 24 inch is probably perfect I got 27 and its a little to big imo.

I've a curved monitor but it's not the ultrawide type but It does 4k and whatnot so I'm good for now... the one you got there might be a bit too wide for me tbh! But it does look nice aesthetically though!

Are 32:9 monitors capable of let's say... 3440x1440? Or 2580x1080? Sometimes you want to scale things down because of fps issues, but not wanting to get to 16:9 scale, but 21:9 instead.

HDR 400 isn't a gimmick when it's a true 10 bit monitor, and can actually ATTAIN 400 nits peak brightness. I had an Acer Predator that was only HDR 400, but had true 10 bit color depth, easily passed the shadow of the tomb raider test, and doom eternal test. Doesn't look great in movies, but when gaming it was more than fine.

A tips for a ultrawide monitor to test: LG 38GN950, you will not be disapointed

Next video bring back the golden mic. The poor thing must be rotting away without events to go to.

I used my 29" AOC Q2963PM (2560x1080) 21:9 IPS monitor for many years, I like how immersive 21:9 ultrawide monitors are in games. The main problem with ultrawides are that most new AAA games don't support it, I had trouble getting- Sekiro: shadows die twice, Monster hunter world, Ace combat 7, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom, Devil May cry 5 to work since those games don't fully support ultrawide monitors. My only fix was to upgrade to a 4k (3840 x 2160) 16:9 Gaming monitor, since so many game developers refuse to add ultrawide support into their games...

I have a 2560x1080 monitor. Over the past 3 years, almost all the games I play support 21:9. I never heard of a modern game that does not support 21:9, not until today. There are some free demos (of new games) that do not support ultrawide. I had to change the .ini config in Oblivion to support 21:9. After that it worked fine. I could list a hundred games than support 21:9. All the games on my channel were recorded in 2560x1080. kzread.info/dron/ec-h4Ic-PNRp6hjMBJLxpA.htmlvideos
