Yeah, I've been using one for about six months now and really enjoying it! The screen size is fantastic for multitasking and immersive gaming experiences.

That's great to hear! @@CowboysCrewLove. I was wondering if you could tell us more about the monitor, particularly in terms of its pros and cons? Also, can you share a TechReviewer article that gives an overview of this monitor? Is the Samsung 49" CHG90 Good for Gaming?

Thanks for sharing your experience, @arrghkelly! The screen size does sound fantastic. What kind of games have you been playing on it?

I've been using the Samsung 49" CHG90 for a while now and can definitely vouch for its large screen size. It's perfect for RTS (real-time strategy) games like Starcraft, where you need to see as much of the map as possible.

For me, it's all about the FPS (first-person shooter) games. I've noticed a huge difference in my performance when playing on this monitor compared to my old one. The 144Hz refresh rate really makes a difference.

@@Bullenbeisser and @CowboysCrewLove, thanks for your input! From what you're saying, it seems like the screen size and high refresh rate are both significant factors for gaming. Have either of you encountered any issues with the monitor? Like any cons to using it?

Yeah, I'm curious about that too. The response time is also a big deal for me in a gaming monitor. How do those factors play out for you?

The only con I can think of is that the resolution could be higher. For some games, especially older titles, you can notice the pixels.

That's true about the resolution. On the other hand, the VA display panel type provides good color accuracy, which is a pro for me.
