Turning HDR on severely washes out any SDR content. You can use Windows HD Color settings to compensate but I recommend just turning HDR on when you plan to use it. As u/BadgerslayerBrett pointed out to me (thanks!), Samsung released a new firmware just a couple of days ago. The monitor does not come with the screws for the VESA mount. According to the manual the correct size is '4.0 mm Φ, 0.7 pitch * 10.0 mm long'. HDR does better or worse on a per game basis. Works about as well as any edge lit 4K TV for movies and videos. Unlike the CHG90, the CRG9 does NOT come with a keyboard/mouse switch. You need to use apps like ShareMouse, Barrier or Synergy or alternatively buy a KM switch for a hardware solution.

The display might make some noise on the right side. I am not quite sure what causes this because it doesn't occur all the time. It sounds similar to the fizz of a soda drink. It’s miles better than the DisplayHDR 400 standard seen on the Asus XG49VQ and many other screens: that entry-level protocol only requires brightness levels of 320 nits and 400 nits, and it makes no demands regarding DCI-P3 coverage. The vast Samsung CRG90 works wonders in racing games thanks to the extra immersion and wider field of view The Samsung CRG90 is a stunning screen with few flaws, but it’s expensive and not suitable for everyone. In other screen modes the Asus’s contrast level dropped down to a more conventional 1500:1, though, while the Samsung maintained its levels across more of its screen modes.However, if you have a the cash and feel like you would benefit from a 32:9 widescreen, the Samsung CRG90 is the best widescreen monitor out there right now, thanks to its image quality, HDR abilities and all-round strong design. Verdict Elsewhere, the Samsung CRG90 uses a VA screen, just like the Asus XG49VQ. And, just like the Asus, Samsung’s panel has a 4ms response time – fine for mainstream gaming, but not good enough for esports. It’s an exciting slate of specifications, and Samsung says that this panel can be used for work and play – so it should be versatile.

FAQ for Samsung TV. Find more about how to troubleshoot when your Smart Monitor M80B remote is not working with Samsung Support. There are some peripheral issues to contend with regarding the Samsung’s implementation of FreeSync and HDR. If you want to use HDR and 10-bit colour, then FreeSync only runs at 100Hz, not 120Hz. If you do want HDR and 120Hz, you’ll have to use 8-bit colour. However, the density level still isn’t able to match 4K screens – a 32-inch 4K panel sits up at 138ppi, and even 40-inch 4K panels serve up 110ppi. 4K screens also have more vertical pixels, and extra vertical space will be more beneficial in some situations. The CRG90’s native resolution of 5120 x 1440 is stretched across a 49-inch diagonal. It’s got a 32:9 aspect ratio and an 1800R curve – the standard curvature for most monitors.The factory colour temperature of 6366K is a tad on the warm side, but close enough to the 6500K ideal to make no difference. It’s a little closer than the Asus, which hit 6825K. The Samsung also provided a solid gamma level of 2.12. No built-in KVM support. You can use a separate KVM switch or software KVM solutions like Barrier, ShareMouse or Synergy for this. When running games at 3840x1080 for performance reasons I recommend using a sharpen filter (e.g. Nvidia Freestyle sharpen or AMD Radeon Image Sharpening) or the display sharpness control to make it less blurry. Many games run just fine with the full resolution and aspect ratio. Some like Control don't support the resolution out of the box but can be patched or config modded. It has tremendous screen quality, with superb colours, great contrast and an HDR implementation that actually works. The punchy, vibrant images are joined by AMD FreeSync and solid physical design that delivers good adjustment and an effective OSD.
