When going with curved monitors one crucial thing is the curvature of the monitor 800R to 1800R, depending on the sitting position measure the distance from ur eyes to the screen in front round it off in thousands and u have ur curvature. My Feature set for the perfect monitor would be LG 45" OLED curved monitor only con is it's 800R which is a bit to close considering my hand length and steering base depth. 1000R should be the sweet spot. Nice video covering most of the details.

[@simracingden]

Good point. I have three 1000r monitors but curvature of them combined I believe is around 850 at least setting that in game looks perfect. Very immersive feel like I'm in the cockpit. Distance to eyes about 25”

Is this monitor a good choice for my triple screen setup, using it for race and flight sim? Sceptre 30-inch Curved Gaming Monitor 21:9 2560x1080 Ultra Wide/ Slim HDMI DisplayPort up to 200Hz

[@bluntforc3studios198]

I’ll make it easy for viewers it’s this simple Tripple screens 1080p, ips, 1ms 120+hz au optronics panel. Avoid va / tn panels for sim racing as wash from viewing angles is terrible and ghosting on va (yes even odessy) is poor, or go 1440p if you have a 4090, the reason I say 4090 is I dont get why people buy all the high end hardware only to turn graphics settings Down??your are far better off at 1080p , 27” high refresh rate 120hz + than 1440/4k at reduced graphics settings and frames Ps ultra wide… just don’t!!! you will regret it and curved monitors are not ideal as they distort the image. V.R whilst immersive the tech is still not good even in 2024 HDR = don’t bother Gysnc / Or amd version don’t worry about use Riva tuner instead. Thank me later Done

[@RealStuntPanda]

I think I'm going to upgrade from a 3440 x 1440 ultra wide to a 5120 x 1440 super ultra wide. They're only about $700 to $800 for a decent one. I'm only gaming on it so I'm okay with it not being a great monitor.

​@@ukaszburza629 it does but maybe it's just because I'm running 1080p on a 1440 monitor I only did it to test what my frame rate would be in comparison to 1440. A lot less detail for sure the reason I was thinking about going to 1080 is because I will be going from one screen to three. But I'm thinking about getting three 4K TVs because the scaling actually divides out equally instead of 1.5 scale which I think is the reason why it doesn't look so great. My plan was to use the PC that I have now to run three to run three 1440 monitors at 1080p since I already have one and then eventually down the road upgrade my setup and run 1440p all of them but I think honestly it would be better for me to just get the 4K TVs run them at 1080P and then run them at 4K later when I get a better set up.

What PC would you recommend for SIM racing that would also go well with an ultra-wide monitor? It would be helpful to see a video about finding the right PC.

[@simracingden]

They are endless options. I would think about the resolution and desired frame rate you want to run and graphics settings then source components that can handle it. You don't need as much horsepower to run one single monitor vs triples. The GPU is going to be most important for sim racing titles.

It's been a great monitor looks excellent, IMO, but I don’t have a lot of experience with others to compare with the Zotac 4090. Performance is great. I think for the price, they are an excellent option, but I may upgrade them at some point. The display port 1.2 is not an issue since 1.4 is backwards compatible. They are a bit older, so maybe, at this point, there might be a better option out there for you. I haven’t felt the urge to upgrade them yet if I do it will be for 4K at somepoint.

[@simracingden]

I think that should be possible you may need to turn down some graphics settings but should be ok.

[@Caldwing]

I'm pretty new to all this but I really have to ask, why would you ever consider monitors instead of VR if you are going to spending this kind of money? Technically monitors can give you a better FoV yes, but the lack of depth perception is such a major difference that nobody seems to mention. My experience has been that VR is starkly superior both for immersion and for actual results. I personally find the timing of my turns much, much easier to judge in VR because it's actually 3D. I find it so much better I honestly would never again even consider a racing game that didn't support it.

[@nothingproheretv]

I agree that VR gives the best immersion. However, not all people can race with VR such as motion sickness, and face gets quite warm too after a while, or cheek muscle ache caused by the face insert, extra cable around the head or battery issue if it's wireless VR headset etc. I love racing with my quest 2 but sometimes it's just easier to use the monitor for quick race or hang out with friends. Also (for me) it's easier to do Livestream if racing with monitor instead of VR, and allow me to be aware of what's happening irl in the house (i.e. wife and kids etc) :)

[@Skovos]

I prefer monitors over VR as well. I raced a decent amount with a quest 2 and it just feels inconvenient and can be finicky sometimes. Right now I'm building a new full Sim Racing setup and I'm having trouble deciding between 1 curved or 3 flat. Trying to find the best bang for my buck.

[@DANDYZXXI]

@@nothingproheretv maybe if you got more advanced motion sickness, thats ok but nevertheless if you have motion sickness triple monitor should also make you nauseuos because of higher peripheral view, everybody got motion sickness in VR in first couple of times, its normal, you just need to adjust your body. I hate when people say "hurr durr VR makes me vomit" - like yeah there isnt one person even without motion sickness who didnt felt MS at least once in VR. In more advanced games like Bonelab/Boneworks or any game where you can move freely, 100% first couple secs/mins will be nauseating then you will accustome.

[@evanhunterblbier]

I cannot fit triple 32s but considering swapping my 49 UW for triple 27. Is there any advantage with curved 27 vs flat? Also, since the 27” is narrower even with a bezel kit does the bezel completely disappear? I like how my 49 is unbroken for the windshield

[@simracingden]

Curved vs. Flat doesn't make a difference. It's a personal perspective. I like how curved looks and feels, but it's very subjective. The bezel free kit does not completely dissapear, but you will likely eventually not notice it is much but can't beat the uniformity of the ultrawide.

[@arranmc182]

I say don't even look at any monitor with less than 75hz refresh rate if your Sim Racing on PC

That is true widescreen is not natively supported but apparently there is a way to make it work.

Nice video! I've been sim racing with a vr headset for a while now and I'm considering switching to a triple monitor or ultrawide setup. Racing in vr is incredible but generally vr headsets don't make use of displayport cables yet. I have to use mine wirelessly, which introduces frequent annoying networking stutters. This is a real shale, as I'm a massive fan of vr gaming.

[@simracingden]

Thanks! I do have a VR headset - a Varjo Aero - which I highly recommend. Though I usually opt for triple monitors for comfort and the benefit of clearer visuals with higher FPS, the Aero is an excellent choice. It uses a DisplayPort, ensuring a more stable connection, and overall, it's a fantastic headset.

Does anyone know if its possible to have an ultra wide monitor as your center ( windshield ) display and smaller monitors as your left and right displays? The dimensions of most triple monitor setups throw me off, and I haven't seen one set up like that, I always wondered if maybe it wasn't possible due to differences in resolutions?

[@simracingden]

Its possible with Nvidia surround or similar applications.

[@mateiberatco500]

I only have 1 argument: Curved monitors are FALSE immersions. Why? Because I saw no game that asks about it. And basically it renders a flat scene, that the monitor projects on a curve. The higher the curvature, the more discepancies. I also saw no driver (NV, AMD) that makets detection of curved monitor to change that render plane and override the game setup. Again: GPUs render a flat image. I played for 5 years on 3 monitors, and played them flat (side-by-side), because only 2 sims (iRacing, and I don't recall the other) had the monitor angles as parameters. All others did not even know that 3 monitors are active and I had to use NV surround to simulate a very wide monitor. 99% of people who "buy" the curved marketing have no idea how the rendering is done. Unfortunately that extends to product availability. When I bought my current 34" 21:9 monitor, I basically spent 1 week to find I can only choose between 2 models. Over 10 I eliminated just because of being curved. Oh, and I wanted 1080p, but due to that availability, I only could buy 1440p. (1080p means GPU can make 50% more frames in the same time) Curving a monitor has only 1 advantage: viewing angles of the sides of the image. They can basically put a cheaper (with worse viewing angles) curved panel than a better flat one for the same width. Also, for sim-racing, I see no reason for 4K and 1440p. If you push 4K, your FPS will be lower. So just go 1080p with max frames you can. You can even reduce the GPU budget, not to mention 1080p monitors are cheaper. I don't spend time in racing games for sight-seeing. I spend it to find MY limits.

I was just ranting about cuved monitors, as I tried 3 24" monitors and ended using them flat becasue of SW (games that did not have multi-monitor angle settings).

It really depends on how close you can sit to it. When I first got into sim racing, I had this 48" LG C1 OLED TV right in front of me on my Trak Racer TR8 setup. It was awesome because it had all the good stuff like HDMI 2.1, VRR, HDR, and 120Hz, perfect for my PS5 and Xbox Series X. I never felt the need for anything bigger, but I can't deny that a larger screen adds to the immersion.

@@simracingden thank you, also I heard you can’t go higher than a 32 inch monitor for a ps5 16:9 is it true ?

[@simracingden]

@@gstylez909 You can go as big as you want, but thats correct PS5 only natively supports the 16:9 aspect ratio at the moment.

Last question, i narrowed it down to These 2. Neo g7 or the lg c2 42 inch which would you recommend?

[@simracingden]

@@gstylez909 Choosing between the Neo G7 and the LG C2 42-inch largely depends on what you prioritize in a display for your sim racing setup. The Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 is a gaming monitor with a curved screen, fast response times, and a high refresh rate (240Hz), making it ideal for fast-paced gaming like sim racing. Its Quantum Mini LED technology can offer excellent contrast and colors. However, its size may be smaller than what you're looking for in a sim racing setup. On the other hand, the LG C2 42-inch is an OLED TV, meaning it will likely have superior color accuracy, contrast, and viewing angles compared to the G7. Its response time and input lag are also excellent. However, its refresh rate might be lower than the G7. If your focus is primarily sim racing and other fast-paced games and you appreciate the immersion a curved screen can provide, the Neo G7 might be a better choice. If you're looking for a larger screen that can double for general media consumption, offering superb image quality, the LG C2 42-inch could be a great option. Remember to consider the space you have available, and how far you'll be sitting from the screen as both of these factors can influence your overall experience.

Good video, but a better title is “Choosing a Monitor for PC Gaming.”

vr is almost objectively better if you’ve got the hardware

[@simracingden]

I've got both and use a Varjo Aero VR headset occasionally, but I still prefer triples. It comes down to everyone's personal preference. VR is a fantastic experience, but I still feel the technology is not quite there yet regarding FPS and graphic fidelity in a lightweight unit.
