Sweet!

Ha! Well, I am in line for a new Mac Pro, just hoping the base price drops a little.
I doubt we will ever buy a Pro Display.
I need new lenses at day job and dont want to tip the budget scale 😉 -

Would love to hear your findings ☺
Just found this Samsung Ultrawide that does 144MHz at a lower res.
I guess 60MHz is a bit low but love that 5120 x 1440 size 🙂 -
Here is a vs page between Dell and Samsung:

Up here (Canada), I found it for less than 1K USD.

I’ve got the monitor installed and running on 7.5 metre DP & HDMI cables. It works perfectly with Resolve on PC running with an NVIDIA GPU.
The USBc allows me to also plug in my laptop and display instead of the second PC screen. It powers the laptop too. I haven’t worked out how to get any of the USB HUB ports to be recognized by the PC. Might have to read a manual or something crazy.
Resolution is set to 2560 x 1440 side by side and the join between the dual screens is seamless. You can drag a dialog box across the screen and you don’t see any join line. As a bigger screen than I had before, I was also able to move the screen away from me so I don’t need my reading glasses. That is a big help as I go between the computer screens and the 65″ LG OLED monitor. It also means they don’t block the big screen as much as the old monitors. (Dual Dell 24″)
I’m very happy with this screen. I can now retire the old DVI extenders that were a bit flakey.

Thanks for the update!
You run two video cables from one computer? Or are you saying you are using the one monitor as a dual monitor setup to two computers?

How is the refresh?
And which NVIDIA card do you have?
I would be using this on a Mac at home but maybe try it on my HP Z240 at work. -
Eric & Jeremy. It is running dual screen from my PC via a GTX1080. So two cables from the one computer. Plus I can switch the right hand screen to my laptop connected via USBc using the monitor menu to select a different input. I have it set to Picture in Picture mode on the Dell so it acts like two monitors side by side. The PC is set to two screen and is not spanned so two discreet outputs being used.
Refresh rate seems good. Not sure what the spec is but I notice no lag or flicker.
