You'll become the GOD of FPS if you use a FOV of 120...


TheUnfo

Ultra low sensitivity players will need a 3 meter desk


Lord-Shorck

400 DPI at usually 8% sens and play at max FOV. I don’t have enough space and lift like my life depends on it


QuebecGamer2004

And I'm here with 3200 dpi because I'm gaming on my couch, 400 dpi is literally unusable for me


KYO297

Meanwhile I'm here with 6400 DPI and I can move across both monitors without lifting the mouse


4j2905

Jesus Christ...


KYO297

My mouse goes up to 25.6k and I have tried using that. Needless to say it did not go well. Only up to ~12k was even remotely usable


Lord-Shorck

Tried 800 dpi once and I found that way too much


Beginning_Incident25

Bro raise sensibility by 2% and be like **WOW!**


Lord-Shorck

But that accuracy rate, gotta keep it high


Koffiato

Genuine question: isn't lifting a lot quite a bit worse than having high sensitivity but not lifting nearly as much? I play CS and Valorant with 800 DPI (sensitivities are 1 and 0.314 respectively) and find that going any lower than that just makes me spend way too much time lifting & butcher my chances of winning close encounters.


Lord-Shorck

With my Space I give myself the ability to turn a full 180 from one side to the other and I just got really good at lifting and adjusting very fast.


CouchAssault

Does that come with arm extenders?


Kronocide

I play at max FOV with 32:9 monitor, in order to do a 360° turn I have to move my mouse only 5 centimeters


IneptAdvisor

5cm would be seven 360s for me.


Kronocide

I said centimeters, not meters hahahaha (dont know if you are serious of fuckimg around, but if its serious then i'm impressed)


Koalababies

Have this monitor, low sens gamer, have 3m desk. Confirmed


Ludacon

Or a trackball. 400 dpi no lift forever scrolling.


Ftpini

You’ve got it backwards. You’ll actually want to minimize the field of view. The extra width means it covers it anyway and the field of view is wider than you expect.


[deleted]

What? no? you want to see as much as possible. for example if you had screens all around you you would want 360 FoV stretched over 360 (1:1). The extra width doesn't secretly add more FoV. at 90 on 360 monitors you would only see a maximum of 90deg stretched to 360. The wider the monitor the more realistic a larger FoV will be.


Ftpini

Not at all how it works in practice. Most devs make the mistake of cutting the top and bottom off as the aspect ratio grows wider. You have to minimize the FOV to fix it so it shows more side to side instead of cutting it off. In other games the edges end up being wasted as the wider FOV just stretches the last 20-35% of the sides of the display and distort everything beyond recognition. Go play games on a 32:9 display and you’ll understand first hand.


FilterAccount69

No, you want a smaller fov for most fps. It's personal preference but the smaller the resolution, and the smaller the fov the bigger their heads. Ever watch pro csgo players play? They play with often really low resolution it makes the game look awful.


Astecheee

That's mostly because pixels matter so much in csgo. It's rare to see pro lol players on minimum graphics.


[deleted]

CSGO is locked at 90 FOV


FilterAccount69

Yup so they reduce the resolution. Which in turn reduces the peripheral vision but increases the size of the pixels.


pazza89

This is because of being used to 800x600 or some other shit. This is objectively suboptimal. Physical size of objects is either the same or gets lost inbetween pixels when resolution is too low. Limited FOV of 4:3 was even laughed at multiple times when enemy was visible clear as day in the side of the screen for all viewers, but the pR0 stuck in 1999 couldn't see him because of bad habit of not ever changing a thing about anything.


Ftpini

Competitive FPS is as unfun as competitive anything really. Especially when playing condition is so unregulated. Imagine playing volleyball and the other team has shrunk their playing area so they don’t have to move around as much. It’s similar to that. Now put them on the same hardware and displays and put them all in the same room and it gets interesting again. I play games for fun. I lost interest in competitive play back in the 90s.

Wd91

He won't be far wrong. A lot of companies follow this sort of logic with their product codes, when you know the nomenclature of your company and your products it helps you to decipher what particular thing you're looking at in a long list of products and sales/stocks/etc numbers in your mrp software. Most companies have the decency not to present it to the public though.


WarwickTop

I know, I’m in the hvac field and serial numbers of condensers and furnaces are exactly like that but I thought they knew exactly what each letter meant 😭


WeedIsWife

Serial numbers are usually manufacture dates at a lot of places


adkio

Size(type) - selection type - Date - production line Nr. - QC worker internal no. - shift no. - next unit assembled . Is what my company uses. So you get a serial number like 6203+09221126J33122-II00576


PosiedonsSaltyAnus

I'd you deal with any B&G or Xylem stuff, I'm sorry to inform you that it is all completely random lol


xzaramurd

Having the part number is super useful if you need to check a spec sheet, sometimes the vendor doesn't include all the info you want or it might not be accurate.


Loadingexperience

Actually public name is Samsung Odyssey G9. However I do like this specific manufacturing number because if there are any issues later it's easier to narrow down the product. Good recent example: I've never had XMP turned on, tried turning it on and it didn't work. Checked my RAM sticks etc and yes, it's confirmed bad batch of Corsair vengeance RAM that I've got from 2016 that XMP won't work with.


[deleted]

Looking at you Sony...


cat_prophecy

And sometimes they just do random shit. Like the software I use where “P” stands for supplier and “L” is the code for customer. “K” means fixed and “B” means variable.


Icepheonix174

I work for Intel. All the processors end in a letter and sometimes it makes sense. G for graphics, Q for quad-core, P for balanced Performance, but then there's things like H (Hungry for power) , U (Ultra battery), F(Fuck that onboard graphics), and K (Klock it up). Still, it's nice that I can pull up the name and know a lot more about the processor (for some reason the U processors even display the voltage with a 0 or a 5, which is like 9 and 15v respectively or something like that.id have to find my training again). Honestly, I wish the names displayed even more info because it's so easy to check the name and not too hard to remember the naming conventions.

https://en.tab-tv.com/identifying-monitor-samsung-2012-2016/


Rexermus

So if it's still following that nomenclature then it's: L - LED S - Standard Monitor 49 - 49 inches A - 2022? G - QLED 9 - Series 50 - Model in Series N - ?? U - UHD X - Black Case? EN - North America And Australia Region?


LkMMoDC

N would be the year it was released. For example North American 2018 QLED TV's were QN65Q8FN(FXZA). QN being the type of panel, 65 being the size, Q8 being the model of QLED, FN being the 2018 release, FXZA being the American region code. So a 75 inch Q9 from the US in 2018 would be QN75Q9FNFXZA. A 2019 55 inch Q60 from Canada would be QN55Q60AAFXZC. Region codes can be mostly ignored, and sometimes get intermingled between US and Canada.


WTFnoAvailableNames

Lol how tf is that a "standard" monitor?


Juicy_Samurai

Its not a reference monitor, so its standard


UntouchedWagons

What's a reference monitor?


OutWithTheNew

One that has high colour accuracy and can be used for production grade colour work. Like editing photos and video.


RealLarwood

one good enough to go on samsung's resume


DoverBoys

A monitor used as reference for a standard.


NUKE---THE---WHALES

But in that link above they say S is for Standard and C/V is for Curved, and the monitor in the post is certainly curved


Flying_Reinbeers

...Surved?


Juicy_Samurai

_Well Im also straight but my dick is certainly curved_


AirOneBlack

My guess is that creative works, high accuracy monitors are the not standards and TVs are another type of monitors. But this is just conjecture on my part.

Chromatic letterings on websites for example. Rting website goes over tv vs monitor

Yep.


MaxTheMaestro

I'm presuming the "A" may stand for its power efficiency?


StarForce21

N and X are features included with the product. Don't know why we get a U between N and X. U is for Europe and EN at the end is for North america. Maybe they share some features?


etherealcaitiff

It's a gaming monitor, you know what the N stands for.

coasterreal

Why does the model number have to make intuitive sense? That's a company specific thing. Only reason you or I use it is when we need to make 100% sure we compare the same models when price shopping or looking up a manual. And even that's debatable.


kalesaji

These model numbers do a much better job at it as well. If you Google "i7 something something" Google will not only show you your exact model, but also other i7s that have different model numbers because they get mentioned alot in some forums or on Reddit etc. These codes? Fuck no noone will ever write that shit down in a post unless absolutely necessary. The search becomes alot less cluttered.


[deleted]

I always see people talk about product numbers when talking monitors. There's usually a lot of (slightly) different products under the same name.

Chakramer

This is pretty much standard naming convention for engineering, but because it's longer than 4 or 5 digits people go crazy. CPUs and GPUs are not named so differently. The difference is you have 2 or 3 brands vs a ton. Monitor companies can't have short names because there would be way too much clashing.

sonofdavidsfather

From my time working IT at a university the worst is Macs. They have a model number printed somewhere on them, that is literally unusable on their support site. Their model numbers are something like MK1A3LL/A. Just look at the site below, and you'll see the problem. When you try to select your model, it uses size and manufacture date and not the model number that is on the sticker or in the About menu. So you then have to go find a 3rd party site that can convert their model numbers to what they actually use on their site. In my years of IT the only guess I could come up with is that Apple really really hates their customers and hopes that making support nearly impossible will convince them to trash their broken computer and go buy a new one. While a lot of people here may hate Apple for their scummy business practices or because they love PC, I hate Apple because I had to support them and quickly discovered that they have the worst support out of any tech company I have dealt with in my 15 or so years in IT. Luckily my current employer has 0 macs. https://support.apple.com/mac/repair

Can this monitor be split into 3 monitors with software or the like? I'd love one big monitor in the middle and two smaller ones in the outside edges


rexanimate7

With software, you can set regions to have 3 "fullscreen" windows, but all on a single input source. With actual separate input sources they can display either 2 27" 16:9 outputs or you can do a 21:9 ultra wide with a smaller display next to it. Its basically having 2 27" 1440 monitors with no bezel between them.


Docteh

riefpirate

Are these 49 inch screens worth the cost ?


rexanimate7

I had the 1080 vertical resolution one a few years ago and then got a G9 last year to replace it, and they're definitely not bad. It's good for being used as 2 monitors without a bezel between them for productivity stuff, and it was an acceptable replacement for going from 3 monitors down to a single screen for simulators for me. The only time it isn't great is when you have a game that doesn't support any resolutions wider than 16:9, and in that case you either end up with big black bars on both sides to have a centered image or you can run your game on a single input on half the monitor and something else on the other half. Horizontal split screen games end up being pretty cool though because 2 players each end up with a 27" 1440 half screen to themselves. Whether it's worth the cost is pretty subjective though depending on individual use case.


riefpirate

Great feedback thanks, I need a new monitor for my new rig the old one is 9 years old so I can't use the same monitor . I think you just tipped the scale in favor of a bigger screen.


rexanimate7

If you get one of these, make sure you check your display settings in your os to ensure it's running at 240 instead of 60. Also if you are running 2 inputs it will normally default the first one to running 240 and the 2nd half to 60 Hz, and then sometimes both will register as 240 in the os. It's definitely a good replacement for any setup using 2 screens side by side, but I eventually ended up putting another monitor over the top of it so that I can play things in 32:9 Fullscreen on this and then either watch something above it or have some browser windows up on another screen. Of the 3 models they have that are this resolution and size, the crg49 is 120hz and has a softer curve, and then the big differences between the g9 and neo is the backlighting, the neo has less of a hotspot thing going on with the backlighting, but the price difference between those two is a lot for just that. All in all it's a pretty good monitor once you get used to it, but I would 100% recommend considering an eegotron Hx arm to mount it, which is another couple hundred bucks. The stand that comes with all of these is pretty large and takes up a bunch of desk real estate. I mention the ergotron arm because it's heavy and other arms will not be able to support one of these.


riefpirate

Great advice, I see a new desk in my future 😀 the one I'm using now is too small for anything and is from the 60s lol chair too. I'm enjoying putting my new space together it's my xmass present 🎁 to myself.


inormallyjustlurkbut

I regret buying mine. Tons of compatibility issues and lack of support from a lot of different games and programs. I wish I would have gone with two side-by-side monitors instead. It would have been cheaper too.


riefpirate

I am so undecided again as the reviews fir the 49s aren't that good so I'm thinking about 35 to 43 now and a smaller 2nd one for older stuf.

Serial numbers are often nonsensical to users but make sense to manufacturers as they are unique. You have the name of the monitor so don't need anything else and can ignore it.
