My entire setup is in a state of disarray currently due to me comparing several monitors side by side. But I always consider PPI rather than screen size so in regards to both the QN900 and the Neo G9 57" that would be the same as a 4K 32". Any additional screen area I treat as a multi monitor...
As I recall it, Multi View (Samsungs PIP/PBP) did not work with PC in game mode (needed for 4:4;4) which kind of made it useless for anything but video/TV.
It should perhaps be said that I don't really consider any of these screens to have 100% usable screen area, at least for things like text, photo editing etc. Unless you have super human vision and can push the monitors far enough away without enabling scaling, the viewing angles are just to...
Was thinking about doing a summary of that but has not gotten around to it yet. But in short, twice the screen real estate, glossy with no grain, flat, much better viewing angles (even when sitting in the sweetspot of the Neo G9). Surprisingly enough, I found the local dimming and brightness to...
Not sure why you would want 8K on such a small monitor but I completely agree about that no sane person should invest in a 65" 8K TV as a PC monitor :D That said, all I do now is to press the power button on the remote once a day (or twice if I don't want to wait for it to shut down on itself...
And here I just boxed up the Neo G9 57" (almost an 8K monitor) in favor of the QN900C (an 8K TV) as I found the latter to be better in most use cases as a PC monitor, at least for me.
Of course, neither of them passes the "I am broke" requirement...at least not before you buy any of them :)
Having done the same a few times in the past, it is important that the difference might actually be as much the changes rather than it being 120 hz/144 hz. Ie going the other way might actually also make things worse to begin with, timing etc just get different. Same thing with going from like a...
If rapid response times, most likely for FPS gaming I guess, is the most important, OLED is probably what you want, or maybe a TN panel. That was not your question though.
There must have been some updates to the QN900C/One Connect Box since the first QN900C I tried because I am yet to experience any kind of dropout even at 144 hz while the previous one had them all the time. And this is with the long cable as well. As mentioned before, I noticed that packaging...
There are additional "weirdness" with dithering etc that comes into play. It is doable but as a monitor nut, it would have to be better than that in order not for me to start looking into alternatives (lika a 4K side monitor). The Multi view definitely seems to be targeted at "video content"...
Was able to get the Multi View working but it seems to require disabling Game Mode which also seem to break 4:4:4 which basically makes it pointless for anything text related (at least compared to an actual monitor).
