Salut à tous, j'ai un mac mini m4 avec un écran LG 49GR85DC 5120 x 1440px. Je passe en HDMI mais la résolution n'est pas tip top, j'ai essayé de passer par un USBC - DisplayPort mais ça ne fonctionne pas (l'écran scintille) avez vous une idée de ce qu'il faudrait faire ?
what's the brand model of the current KVM switch used ? With good balance in performance and quality, LG 49GR85DC-B at 5120x1440@240Hz, you can use it as one ultrawide monitor or as two independent sharing monitors (with PBP setup). Attached is the [setup with KVM switch recommended](https://youtu.be/OSWA5INQGDM).
Have the 49” LG. It is an excellent productivity monitor and the 1000R curve is a must have.
Using the LG 49GR85DC for productivity right now. Absolutely the best choice I can imagine. It’s amazing! VA panel is fine for work, and the larger curve really removes distortion at the far edges. In budget too!
Just bought the similar LG 49 ultra gear with VA panel and 1000R curve for mostly productivity. I can afford OLED, but VA was the correct choice for my use case. It’s perfect for productivity and while games don’t look as great as my 6 year old OLED TV, I’m not worried about burn in, text looks fine for office use, and I generally don’t have to think about my screen or do any tricks to keep peace of mind.
I've had an Ultrawide. Super Ultrawide completely changed my game. I’m still planning to add two extra 27-inch monitors on the sides for better peripheral vision, but the setup is already great. Also, Redditors convinced me to get the more curved LG UltraGear 49GR85DC 1000R monitor, and I’m very happy with it. I highly recommend that you get the same LG monitor. https://preview.redd.it/7vg97xg15xoe1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a2db37263fed72fc1afaa8aa5f215c3348855825
The cheapest 32:9 monitors are the 49" non-OLED monitors. Samsung Odyssey and LG UltraGear. They are $749-799 USD. You may be able to find them cheaper on sale, or open box. There are also some cheaper brands that probably use the same panel (manufactured by Samsung or LG). In the US these brands are AOC and Westinghouse. There are probably different ones in Europe. The OLED 49" monitors start at about $100 more, $849. Such as the MSI MPG. They all should have Picture-by-Picture and a KVM switch, but you might want to double check.
I have an LG 49” @240 Hz as my primary and love it. I also can’t have triples in the room I’m in but still very happy.
I've managed to get my work to buy me two 49" Curved Ultragears. I love them and won't consider settling for less, even though I'm only running a 3080 on my personal rig. I'm required to run most games in a window. Still worth it for all of the real estate. I create a lot of Visio diagrams for work and the ability to have the diagram, spreadsheets, RDP sessions, command windows, email, Teams, etc, all open at the same time without window swapping is invaluable.

Been rocking a G9, but I think I would like the monitor too be more vertical and a bit less wide. The GX9 would be perfect!
I am using an LG 49” 120hz curved monitor on my m4 Mac mini. Works fine. No issues, I’m using an 8k hdmi cable
The LG has all 3 so whatever you want.
