So, yesterday I saw in person one of those Samsung 49" monitors, and my God that thing is large! It's hilarious. If I had one of those, I would end with neck pain, like if I had watched a tennis match from the net.

I can't believe they've sold enough of those to make a bigger, 5120x1440, model... or maybe it didn't sell enough and Samsung is trying again with a bigger res to see if that changes something.

Well, gaming on ultrawides like that is great if you use them properly - as a way to have better peripheral vision. If you sit too close and do indeed turn your head too much, I guess you might end up with neck pain eventually (though, this is basically 2 wide monitors side by side, something that I've been using at work for some 15 years without any problems).
