AOC is releasing a 49-inch ultra-wide display dubbed the AG493UCX . The VA Panel model is designed for gamers and has a 120 Hz refresh rate, FreeSync support, 1800R display curvature, and a 32:9 resolution 5120x 440 pixels.

The monitor can be rotated, tilted and adjusted in height - Pivot is missing, of course, due to the immense width.
The brightness value is listed at 550 cd/m ², which would become a DisplayHDR400 certificate. The contrast ratio is VA typical 3000:1. The monitor is factory calibrated as mentioned with a claimed color deviation of dE <2 , interestingly enough the dsiplay also offers ... a gigabit Ethernet jack.

but this is like 2 16:9 side by side, so the 49inch is more like 2 27" monitor, and i think 1440p fits ok.
Also a 8k by 2k ultra wide at 120hz what kind of connection would require?

Ok, your stooper smart. 16:9 is garbage, especially for racing games if your not on triples.
1440p isnt really enough on my 32, then i rather go 49 with 16:9 and UHD res.

@Agonist
and? heard about ppl that do more than gaming? what about ppl that dont play the games you play?
i rather not see pixels, and even if its ultra wide, its same/higher than my 32in,
and even there 1440p is barely enough. and i dont even have the 20/20 vision anymore (when close to something).
not even talking about the fact i can get a screen for a lot less than this.

It's a 49 inch ultra-wide display.....
where can you find a 49 inch ultra-wide screen with a VA panel and higher resolution than 5120x1440, for a lower price....especially give that no price is even listed for this display.

never said i wanted a ultra wide, but even if, i prefer a higher res than 1440p on a moni with equal/more screen height than my 32 (2560x1440).
dont care about panel type, more about things like local dimming and proper color coverage/accuracy.
last time i saw it, it was listed for +1300$.

i can get a 49X900F for about 800$, and when im really on a budget the 50" M series from vizio.

i was trying to point out that this screen has way less screen height than your 32 at 16:9. this is as high as a 27 inches.

I have the Samsung equivilent of this display (crg9). Looks identical to me. Guess its the same panel. Totally worth it for AOE2 Definitive Edition

Wish more display makers go beyond the 1440p height of UWs. 3840x1600 displays should be an emerging standard by now, unfortunately I believe only LG make them.

There already is very good 120hz 49" 5120x1440 VA panel monitor, HDR1000, with relatively good price if you dont want to wait. But competition is good, hopefully this brings those monitors down in price around 800-900 euro range.

If only xbox one x could use non 16:9 resolutions. I cannot imagine myself playing with 1/2 of the screen (in middle).
I hope next gen will fix this limitation. But PC usage would be awesome. Just it happens I own both on the same room.

all I have to say is I tried 32" and 34" and the pitch between pixels was pretty bad (blurry) so yes the resolution is important on screens like this because of how close you are (doesn't matter on a TV)
I also realized I played mostly 16:9 games and it wasn't for me, I don't play simu anymore, I have a real car lol and I'm not enough of a strategy guy to want a screen only for that, must be awesome tough to see your world on a super large screen
too each his own, I've built an RGB case who am I to argueops:
