Samsung - Odyssey OLED G9 G93SD (LS49DG936SNXGO, LS49DG934SUXEN, etc.)

I had both the Alienware and G9 OLED. I ended up keeping the G9. The Alienware felt too small for me on my desk as it replaced a triple 27inch setup. The G9 hits the right spots and even if the game doesn't support 32:9 just enable scaling in your driver and it'll put black bars and still look just fine. It's OLED so it's not distracting. The Alienware did look pretty and hit all the sweet spots though. Just wasn't for my setup. I'd go Alienware if you're GPU is on the mid-lower end side though. I have a 7900XTX which I know isn't the hoss it used to be but it struggles at times. If you do go G9 get a non-smart version. There's like 5-6 different versions of the G9. The one I have is G93SD, it has a matte screen for glare reduction (personally don't really like that) and no smart features it's just a monitor. If you get the G95SC it will run and work like a smart TV and I cannot tell you how much that took away from the experience it needed like 6 updates before I could even use it. Then it just wouldn't scale without manually toggling the monitor on the OSD. I had NONE of these issues with the G93SD. I ended up returning that one for the non-smart version.

I got the g93SD in April, and I love every single moment with it. If you have anything on par or superior to 4080, you're good to go! (5800x3d and 4080 here).

(Owned alot of monitors) I owned a 21:9 AW3423DW for 2 years and loved every second of it but always felt like I needed a little bit more My friend had the 32:9 57” G9 and that was not the greatest experience for games due to fisheye effect in some games (which is caused by games only having one focal camera and not two) also the crazy curvature, just was too big. But I still wanted more so I bit the bullet and got the smaller 32:9 49” OLED G93SD which I have absolutely loved for all types of gaming even competitive & perfect curvature, barely notice the fisheye effect and rarely need to turn your head, went back to a 16:9 OLED 480hz for a bit, also tested the 21:9 some more but ended up going back to the 32:9 G9 in the end - only thing that would make it better is a 4K upgrade. That 5K2K LG looks interesting but the curvature is too much for me.

I have the G93SD. Just got it 2 weeks ago. My only regret is that I never got this sooner. Amazing monitor and my first OLED!

Jeg har en 4080 super så den burde takle det. Det er i så fall en Samsung 49" Odyssey OLED G9 Curved gamingskjerm S49CG934 hos komplett jeg ser litt på. KCD2 har jeg spilt en del selv så jeg kan bare forestille meg at det er en veldig god kombinasjon!

As I understand it, the MSI version has better passive cooling. I have a G93SD and a spot in the back gets up to 40 C. My monitor was built in May 2025, so Samsung has been building them for years with bad cooling.

One person on this subreddit stuck fans on the back. I think it's a little silly. Some people had their monitor for years without problems. I bought an 2 year warranty with mine, since it only came with a 1 year Samsung warranty (Canada). Beyond that I'll just buy a newer monitor. I just hope the heat won't crack the screen, as I understand Samsung often declines the warranty when that happens.

I've had the G93SD which I think the only difference is it has 240hz. It was really nice but I ended up going with MSI's version instead ($729). No regrets Just putting that out there as a suggestion since Samsung's monitors are kind of a gamble of QC

I got the G93SD model instead. It's basically the same thing but does 240 Hz and comes without the annoying smart UI interface that everyone is always complaining about. It comes with a 3-year warranty but I bought it from Best Buy so I could get their extended warranty coverage on OLEDs which apparently is really good. That should give me at least 5 years of warranty coverage.

Ive been playing on my 32:9 for a year and i love it, If i was buying a new monitor now though id probably go with the new 21:9 5kx4k monitors (5120x2160 right?) Same wide res but better vertical res, better HDR afaik which is really the let down for me on my qd oled g93. Plus dual mode refresh rates for that sweet higher hz experience (not that 240 isnt enough but future proofing across the board with those things) If we’re talking productivity those are still better as like i said you get the same wide res. Id love to have one of those but im not exactly unhappy with my bargain qd oled g93. It feels like im playing all my games in 70mm film (its actually even wider).

Lots of size/FoV comparisons I’ve collected: [https://imgur.com/a/TgdRZsC](https://imgur.com/a/TgdRZsC)

Yeah, I like the 57” and was underwhelmed by the 49” in person.
