I just found I spent more time battling the aspect ratio than anything else. It isn't that it was too wide (though it was, for me) ... it's that it wasn't tall enough (pixel wise) for the width. This meant I never quite had enough height for ANY comfortable IDE/document/web usage. Being able to have 4 or 5 non-ideal height windows side-by-side was just 4 or 5 times as annoying for me. The LG solves all the issues I had with the Samsung. I get the same width in pixels, in a smaller dimension (so reduced head movement) and I get more pixel height. For those benefits, as I am not a gamer, I happily sold the CRG9 and accepted lower (but still fine on the eyes) refresh rates. Couldn't be happer. I used the CRG9 for a few years, it had to go.
