PS5 on the SUPER ULTRAWIDE Samsung Odyssey G9 Monitor! | DocValentino

Samsung Odyssey G9 49" Curved Super Ultrawide (it's not cheap): amzn.to/3AHjpeu
Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 (brand new summer 2021, and less cheap): amzn.to/3FKy9gh
Let's take a look at how to best utilize playing your PS5 on the super ultrawide Samsung Odyssey G9 monitor. This monitor is amazing, and is the equivalent of two premium curved 27" monitors side by side. It will also function like it's two separate monitors, which is the best way to play when gaming on console.

When playing PS5 as one HDMI source with borders on the side, the PS5 will output 2160p (4K) at 60Hz... the monitor is 1440p, so the 4K output from the PS5 will display to you at 1440p and is capped at 60Hz on the monitor (even if the PS5 was outputting 120Hz). When playing in split screen mode with two sources into the monitor, the PS5 resolution setting for 2160p is ghosted out and it will output 1080p at 60Hz. This is also capped at 60Hz on the monitor.

[@waleedalshumrani]

That's why I don't like playing side by side on it. unless I am chatting on ps5 and doing non game stuff on my PC

So I have this monitor so you suggest when you have a dual pc setup and the capture won’t capture the whole screen in your OBS to just do the split creek and capture only the 16.9 ratio

[@DocValentino]

If you’re doing a dual PC setup, you should be able to capture the whole thing in OBS.. but Twitch/KZbin etc. display in 16:9 anyway. So you’re going to either be squeezing your capture or have black bar areas if you leave it at 32:9. For the best experience for your viewers, it probably best to stick with using a 16:9 ratio.

Learn something new today after a year......fuck my life l0l

[@EvanGilner]

Is this the G9 or the G9 Neo? Asking because only the Neo has HDMI 2.1 and wanted to know if that maybe takes care of the stretching when using the full display on console.

[@DocValentino]

Thank you for the channel interaction. This is the G9.. the Neo wasn’t out yet when I got this one. My understanding of HDMI 2.1 is that the bandwidth has increased from 18 Gigabits per second (Gbps) to 48 Gbps. This will allow for increased resolutions, frame rates, and even improved audio, but it would not have any effect on the aspect ratio and, in turn, the stretching.

[@DisplayReality]

This looks cool!. I need a G9... eventually... LOL... my wallet says nope!

[@DocValentino]

Unfortunately, they keep getting more expensive. I got mine from a “scratch and dent” type place that had a damaged box, but no damage was done to the monitor (thank goodness, because they don’t give refunds). I got it for $840, which still hurt pretty bad, but was a great price for this thing, lol.

Did you try the PS5 through the HDMI to Display port cable as well? I don't have one of those cables, but maybe I can pick one up and test out some scenarios.. at least to give another perspective on what works for me and what doesn't.

@@DocValentino I just tried that after you suggested it and no luck. Idk man I love the monitor but this is wild. I've got the 240hz version, unsure if that changes things. I'm guessing it's the ports.

[@DocValentino]

@@Certifiably_Unhinged The 240 Hz shouldn't make a difference. I have the the 240 Hz one, but I always leave it set to 120 Hz because it will use less power, and the max fps I get on anything is right around that anyway. The 240 Hz is overkill for me until I get a more powerful PC. You could try setting it to 120 Hz in the menu, and then try the cable again, but it probably won't matter.

I wouldn’t buy any ultra wide or super ultra wide monitor specifically to play PS5 on. If you plan on using it for work purposes or PC gaming, it’s quite amazing.

[@DocValentino]

Being able to use the split screen feature is nice for playing on consoles, so you use the other half for displaying something else from a PC or something. If I’m streaming console gameplay, I’ll display OBS or a browser or something from my streaming PC so I can switch scenes from console gameplay to PC programs while streaming. But again.. if it’s just to play PS5, I would stick to a 16:9 monitor.

[@Nana-hq9dv]

@@DocValentino also is the neo worth spending extra ?

[@DocValentino]

@@Nana-hq9dv The Neo has HDMI 2.1, so you should be able to play at 120Hz from consoles on games that support it. You are limited to 60 Hz on the HDMI for the regular Odyssey G9. It has its benefits, but it’s such an expensive monitor at this point.

When playing from one source with borders on the side is resolution 4K, 120hz possible with ps5 also is the same possible when displaying ps5 source on half of the screen

[@DocValentino]

When playing PS5 as one HDMI source with borders on the side, the PS5 will output 2160p (4K) at 60Hz... the monitor is 1440p, so the 4K output from the PS5 will display to you at 1440p and is capped at 60Hz on the monitor (even if the PS5 was outputting 120Hz). When playing in split screen mode with two sources into the monitor, the PS5 resolution setting for 2160p is ghosted out and it will output 1080p at 60Hz. This is also capped at 60Hz on the monitor. I hope this answers your question.

[@strawberrymoss]

Can I ask if how you have your audio set up with this monitor? I purchased it and kanto yu2 speakers hoping I could use my laptop on one side of the split screen and my ps5 or switch on the other but I only get audio from plugging the speakers directly into my laptop. How have you managed to make audio work with your ps5? Any pointers would be appreciated!

[@DocValentino]

Hi! Thank you for watching and for the question. There are several ways to do this, with varying equipment and cost options, but two of the cheapest and easiest ways are 1) Get a little USB stereo adapter like this: amzn.to/3qLIBym You will also need a 3.5mm aux cable, which those speakers appear to support. Plug the USB adapter into the PS5, plug the aux cable into the green port on the adapter and to your speaker AUX IN, then on the PS5 - go to Settings>Audio Output>Output Device, and set it to USB Headset (USB Audio Device). - or - 2) You could use an audio extractor device, that will allow you to use an optical output for audio. I did a video on a great product for that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bp-sfXmNm9KJeaM With that particular device, it acts as an HDMI switch and audio extractor, so you don't need the other USB adapter, and your audio output in the PS5 settings would be set to HDMI Device instead of USB Headset. Sorry for the long answer, but I wanted it to be helpful.

[@strawberrymoss]

@@DocValentino this was incredibly useful information! So I think what I’d want to go with is option two seeing as I’d like to connect both my ps5 and my Nintendo switch to the monitor. Final question, are you connecting your pc to that switcher as well and does that function when in pbp mode? I notice in this video you’ve got both the Mac and pc and I was wondering if that would allow you to have both a gaming system and your computer up at the same time (hopefully im making sense, apologies If im not!)

[@DocValentino]

I have a fairly complicated set up. I have 2 PCs (a laptop and a desktop), and multiple consoles, utilizing an ultra wide monitor and super ultra wide monitor. I run the consoles, and an hdmi from my gaming desktop PC through the switch, and then run the output from that switch, through my capture card and then onto the super ultra wide monitor’s HDMI input… only one of those can display at a time. However, the HDMI from my desktop is only if I’m capturing gameplay or running my stream (which I haven’t done lately). My PC gameplay is on my ultra wide monitor connected via DisplayPort while sending a “projection” to the HDMI switch. My laptop is connected to the super ultra wide via DisplayPort and to the ultra wide via HDMI. So to hopefully answer your question, you can have your PC and console side by side, but not your consoles side by side unless you use an HDMI to DisplayPort like the one in this video.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2nRiaJrapaSfbs , but you wouldn’t have your audio from the console that’s using that adapter unless you extract the sound separately and run it to a separate set of speakers. I answered from mobile, so hopefully that all makes sense.

[@strawberrymoss]

[@EmperorDoomsday]

I use a HDMI 2.1 Audio extractor. HDMI cord plugs into the extractor and will allow you to utilize various audio outputs depending on what you can find on the market. You'll need another HDMI cord to plug from the extractor into the monitor for visuals. I'm using a VPFET 8k I pulled off of Amazon. May want to do some research on which one works best for your setup and they are externally powered. You will also need to make sure your PS5 sound output is set to "TV" or it won't work properly once connected.

Everytime a content creator says "dont forget to like and subscribe" i am immediately offput and have no desire to like and subscribe. Yall dont need to tell us every video you make. Its actually really annoying. If people like your content they will like and subscribe on their own without being told to. Make good content and you get many subscribers

But can the PS5 run 120fps on games or not

[@DocValentino]

[@kadezieman4178]

Can someone please help me out I just got this monitor and hooked up every cable possible to my ps5 but when I pull up the menu on the monitor almost every single one of my functions are grey and when I try and click them it says this function is not available (for example: on the game option my refresh rate and black equalizer are grey and I can’t choose them) I really need someone’s help thank you!

[@DocValentino]

Refresh rate is capped at 60Hz on the HDMI input for this monitor, unfortunately. I just got an adapter from HDMI to DisplayPort to connect consoles to one of the DisplayPort inputs, and it allows me to change it up to 240Hz. My next video is on that exact issue.

does the Samsung G9 support 120fps for PS5

[@DocValentino]

It doesn’t if you use the split screen feature on the monitor to utilize two inputs.. it’s locked at 60 Hz in that case. I would have to verify with the PS5 as the only input.

Doc, 120hz?

@@ingeze Can't do 120Hz with PS5 using split screen. I'm not sure about only using the PS5 as an input and nothing else. I have mostly been gaming on my PC recently. I need to do some more comprehensive scenarios with the PS5 and Xbox Series X regarding this monitor.

Doc, I message Samsung and according to them, the ps5 it's able to output 120 through Hdmi on Samsung Neo G9.

[@omerocho8022]

Great video, getting my ps 5 in 2 days. I'm having the G9 as my primary gaming monitor as im running my RTX 3090 on it. pretty bad it doesn't support 2k and 3440x1440 (21:9) yet, feeling that if I would split the screen to play on the PS5 my 3090 on half of it with only 120HZ because of the splitting option will be overkill...

[@DocValentino]

Thank you! Nice job on scoring a RTX 3090. I’m still stuck with a RTX 2060 at the moment. It is a shame that the new consoles don’t support 3440x1440. Hopefully they get a future software update to add that support. I’d love to use my consoles on my 21:9 without stretching the picture or black bars.

[@Malinkadink]

@@DocValentino They most likely will never support 21:9 as its still niche on PC and will remain that way. 1440p support would still be good for this monitor since then you'd at least run at 2560x1440 on half the screen. I assume the xbox works like that since it does have 1440p option?

[@DocValentino]

Yep, the Xbox Series X will do 1440p on one half.

[@omerocho8022]

@@DocValentino but im getting the PS5 😭, i hope they're going to release some summer update with 2k support on one half.

[@DocValentino]

I would imagine they will add 1440p support. The DualSense controller is pretty cool, though. You’ll love the PS5 with or without the 1440p support 😊. It looks really good in 1080p on the one half.

i want to play my ps5 on OBS as i also use the PC whilst playing would you know any way you can make the OBS screen alot bigger then it is, i to have the Samsung G9 Odessey

why u did not show the MOST IMPORTANT THING, can u set ps5's resolution 4K ? when the screen is half and half ?

@@DocValentino liked your many videos, could u pls answer me my friend :(

[@DocValentino]

@@coldbstn It was the all caps that came across harsh. Resolution isn't the most important thing to everyone. I personally prefer a higher frame rate over higher resolution. I'm also recovering from COVID at the moment, so I may be a little cranky, my apologies. To answer your question, you cannot select 4k output on the PS5 in this manner. If the PS5 could do 1440P, you could do that, but it doesn't , so 1080P is the best it can do. The bad part about it, is that the HDMI port on this model is 2.0, so you can't get 120Hz either. The Samsung Odyssey G9 Neo model has HDMI 2.1, so it should support 120Hz in split screen, but still not 4k... (and it's super expensive). Take care.
