You are a life saver. Absolutely no brainer for a monitor this quality reduced from $1199 to $670
Awesome price. If anyone wants the G9 instead of the CRG9, it's $890, which is the cheapest it's been in a while. That one is 240Hz instead of 120, and 1000R curve instead of 1500R, meaning more of a curve
Comparison between CRG9 and G9 below. In case you are interested, I purchased a CRG9. My use case is 99% productivity, so it comes down to how aggressive of the curve that I prefer. Coming from a 3 x 27inch (2560x1440) setup, I think I will be fine with a CRG9 + a 27 inch (for sharing screen on zoom calls). I was also considering LG C2 42" OLED, I think I will stick with a traditional monitor for now for 1/2 the price of 42" OLED.

I can't seem to wrap my brain around the use case for this thing, personally . I had a 34" UW and returned it, going back to my 4K 32". 🤷🏻 ♂️

To each their own, as the expression goes. Great deal, regardless!

I feel the same but even 32" is too big for me. I'm using the 28" g70a and liking it so far.. which is down to $453 with this same coupon if any one is interested. I upgraded to it from a 23.8" 1440 monitor.

Does not work for ps5. And it's not straight forward usable for video conference for work. If these two are your main goals of use, don't get this. Nothless good price for what this is. Thanks OP

My understanding is these screens usually have some software to divide up the area into multiple "screens". This eliminates the border between multiple monitors and you only need one screen base sitting on your desk.

They do. I usually have my G9 set up with two screens in a 1:1 ratio, making it two 27" monitors side by side in a seamless bezel-less experience. When I game, I would switch to either 3:1 ratio with two screens or a full single screen, depending on if the game supports this monitor's ultra-wide aspect ratio.

I have had this monitor for nearly two years and it has been fantastic for both work and gaming. I paid twice as much as this and with the use I have gotten out of it, I still don't think I overpaid. Before, I was using a 34" with a 27" on either side. I got rid of the 34" and moved the two 27" monitors above the CRG-9 and I have more screen real estate than I could ever use.

I ordered the Neo G9 and added this coupon on my edu account. I was able to get another $50 off by going to to orders page > cancel item > found another place cheaper > other retailer > (option to chat or continue cancel) click continue to cancel and was offered another $50 discount to keep my order which I accepted. Hope this works for other ppl. Final price for the Neo G9 came out to be $1399.89 before tax.

a popular cb site rak**en also has 15% cb.

Don't buy a monitor with VA panel! Always go with ips panels.

I seek out VA Smilie

My use case for it is purely productivity. 49 inch monitor is equivalent to two 27 inch side by side, but no border in the middle means you can easily use three windows side by side.

va has good picture quality, but has issues from transitioning from black that looks like ghosting/smearing. i think samsung has some sort of tech that helps alleviate this issue, but i personally havent experienced it for myself

ips not as pretty but more accurate color, better viewing angle, and good motion handling.

in short, if u plan on using for work and watching stuff, this panel will work for u

For those who don't understand how to use this monitor, it's best used with software like DisplayFusion or the MS FancyZones (I think that's what it's called). It's basically 2 27" monitors without the bezel. Incredibly helpful for productivity but I also use it for gaming. The nice thing about this over the G9s are the 4 USB ports. I have a work computer and a personal rig and I'm able to use the 4 USB ports as hub to connect my my mouse, keyboard, headset, and web cam all to the monitor and split the connection between my two machines with a touch of a button. This does require your to get a USB splitter but that's about $10. Works perfectly.

It's a great monitor that I've been using still. I'd jump on this deal if I didn't already have one.

This is the splitter I'm using for those who are interested in a similar setup.

Good luck folks!

I am "downsizing" from two 1440p 32" monitor to this. Same screen estate but no border and I imagine I'll have to move my head less. I can't wait to try it!
