You won’t have to fish around for the tiny hardware bag, but you will need a Phillips-head screwdriver to complete assembly.Ī plastic trim ring snaps in place at the panel’s pivot point to create the RGB lighting effect on the attachment point at the back of the monitor. Once you’ve attached the large but slender base to its substantial upright, it bolts to the panel with four fasteners held captive in the mount. Assembly & AccessoriesĪ long carton reveals the Odyssey G9 in three pieces. You should snag whichever one’s available for the cheapest because Samsung confirmed to us that the monitors are the same. The business version is called LC49G9 7 T and has an MSRP that’s $220 cheaper than that of our review focus as of writing however, we’ve seen our review focus sell for less. We should note that Samsung sells this monitor under two model numbers. It is premium-priced, but on paper, it has unique qualities you can’t currently find anywhere else. The Odyssey G9 is well-equipped to anchor a high-end gaming system. Though it requires a bit more graphics horsepower than a 2560 x 1440 monitor, it’s not quite as demanding as a 16:9 4K screen, which has a million more pixels to move about. It also means an ideal 109 ppi pixel density, which represents a sweet spot in the performance/price spectrum. That’s the equivalent of two 27-inch 1440p monitors side by side for a 32:9 aspect ratio. Samsung starts with a VA panel in mega-wide QHD resolution, 5120 x 1440. Not sure what to do at this point as this is clearly not a monitor with lots of consumer solutions.SVA / W-LED, edge array, quantum dot filmĤ5.2 x 16.5-21.1 x 16.4 inches (1148 x 419-536 x 417mm) It's so close that it's disorienting when playing FPS games. Right now there is not enough space for the massive stand so the monitor is only like 12" from my face. Has to be something I can put through a hole in the desk-top and clamp that way or some such. :(Īnother option though might be a pole or arm unit, but I cannot use the clamp bottom style. I need to use a thick piece of plywood as a backboard or something. The backer is only 1/4" maple - not strong enough. I am mounting to the backboard of a shelved desk. The only issue is I am not mounting on a wall. I am currently looking at this little thing that is rated for 66 pounds from Monoprice: To summarize, the G9 is stupidly front heavy and needs a a mount designed specifically for it or something that weighs far more than it. Even the ergotron arm that's rated for this thing has to have a specialty mount for it just so it can support the weight on the tilt function. Due to how curved the G9 is it puts a lot more load onto a mount than any similar monitor that is flat. Even if the mount supports the amount of weight of the G9 I can still pretty much guarantee you should not put the G9 on it. The biggest issue you're going to find with mounting the G9 is that the weight ratings don't factor in this monitor's design. You're not going to find a single one that isn't something truly specialty that will hold both. ![]() That's basically the only mount that is truly rated to hold up the G9 and it still requires a special bracket for the tilt function. When looking for a mount for my G9 the only thing I found was a single one from ergotron. I don't really have a suggestion for you.
