Hmm have an "Open Box - Fair condition" for $735 near me. Anyone ever buy open box from BB?
I bought the older model (45GR95QE-B) in Open Box - Good condition, for a good deal. I could be lucky though, as the monitor had only 200 hours in and did not have any issues.

Crazy is this isn't 5440x1440. How far can you really stretch 3440 horizontally? I have a 3840x1600p 39" and it's about as dense as it needs to be for that size.

I agree, I'm not a fan of the resolution/ppi but I saw this in store and man did it look great
I agree it looks better than the samsung, but the samsung looks pretty good in its own right, is 4 inches larger, and can be found on sale for $300 or more less than this. Add a 3-4 year warranty plan on the samsung and you're golden.

I've had this connected to a 4090 since this summer.

Immersion, color, gaming, media watching...chef's kiss.

Great for gaming. Horrible monitor for productivity. Can even read text clearly in simple web browsing.

only if he wants a MUCH worse monitor. 5ms response time to .03ms, oled vs ips, and 72hz refresh rate compared to 240hz. and its much more expensive.

Refresh rate is great but I'd at least want 1600p at this size if not 2160p, I read a lot of text and like to sit closer than I should, I'd probably suggest a 34" 1440p monitor over this, but it really comes down to how you use it. I personally enjoy the 39" size over 34" especially for productivity, I haven't used a 45" uw but I imagine that's about as big as I'd want to go. I've had the Alienware/Dell AW3821DW for a few years and the only thing I've been considering since is a 5k2k screen, but there are only a few available and ~$2k, about twice my realistic budget.

I think many people are hoping for a higher resolution and refresh rate ~40" OLED to arrive, and after that I'm looking forward to QDEL screens.

The 1600p UWs I was considering: https://www.displayspecifications...4bae2d519e [displayspecifications.com]
5k2k: https://www.reddit.com/r/ultrawid...0_monitor/ [reddit.com]
QDEL: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2...emium-tvs/ [arstechnica.com]
I am in the waiting for ~39/40 inch at 2160p camp. When are they coming?
