I also quickly compared the two - I can't find any difference - except for the P after the I in the product name :-). Then I had a quick look at Samsung - well, it's like this: the LS49A950UIUXEN (more expensive) also has a USB-C video port - that should explain the difference. @digitec, please correct. https://www.samsung.com/ch/business/monitors/ultra-wide/s9-s95ua-ls49a950uiuxen/

Your graphics card must have a Displayport with version at least 1.3 output. Otherwise you cannot use the resolution and the screen display is poor. (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DisplayPort) I tried with an HDMI switchbox because I wanted to connect several PCs to the monitor - the result was not satisfactory. I then managed with a Displayport switchbox. The monitor displays a clean picture.

The monitor is not bad at all. I have a full USB C thunderbolt 3 dock and this monitor with its own USB C cable. I can then charge two laptops at the same time and use them side by side. The mouse and keyboard are connected to the USB ports of the monitor and can therefore be switched between the sources. The only thing you have to watch out for is that if you really want to use the full resolution with the 120hz that the monitor has, you have to use displayport! And if you also want to use a USB c dock, it has to be at least a thunderbolt 3 dock and not just any dongle. I bought one from dell for around 300 Stutz back then.... And one more point: the compatibility for the full resolution is not given with some laptops (e.g. thinkpad T14) because of the gpu module and/or because the USB c port does not support thunderbolt 3. Therefore I have to connect both USB c cables to the thinkpad to use the whole monitor and then use the monitor as 'two screens' which is not visible when using it.... I wouldn't switch the external HD between the laptops via the KVM switch - you'll probably fry the external HD quite quickly because it will never be correctly dismounted from the file system - it's better to use a small, inexpensive NAS and then both laptops can access it at the same time. In short: with laptops a 120hz 5120x1440 monitor is a bit overkill - in 3-5 years it will probably be better thanks to thunderbolt upgrades etc. But the monitor is rather made to be connected via displayport to a reasonable graphics card. If 60hz is enough for you, there are probably cheaper monitors that can do the same. PS: playstation is the same game.... The 120hz only work with the monitor via displayport connection and there's only one of them, so have fun with the change =D

Hello. Yes, the KVM/USB Hub is very very unreliable. I have opened a ticket with samsung, but nonreal solution was provided.. instead of fixing the issues they explained me a lot of „bla bla“ why it‘s normal to be so unreliable. I was writting them about the following: - USB Hub is only working on USB 2.1 speeds when high resolution is activated - USB devices are unresponsive 5-10 seconds after the monitor wakes up - sometimes, after the monitor wakes up, the usb hub does not work at all and I have to restart it - sometimes, after sleeping over night, in the morning my laptop wakes up from sleep but the monitor is totally unresponsive. Buttons are useless - you have to plug out the power cable for 2 seconds - automatic source detection and switching works only in maximum 10% of the cases - really shameful - when the monitor is sleeping, you have to randomly press the buttons for 10-15 seconds before any menu pops-out on the screen on order to manually select the new source, because the new source is not detected automatically The light bleeding is awful. I feel that the monitor is like an awful cheap products where they sell numbers but with horrible user experience And I am not a critical guy, but this time I am really disappointed

Here are the specs of your CPU: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/201892/intel-core-i510310u-processor-6m-cache-up-to-4-40-ghz/specifications.html You can calculate the pixels for 4096x2304@60Hz and get approx. 9.4 million pixels. 5120x1440 results in approx. 7.3 million pixels, also at 60 Hz. So it fits. (The blurring of such a calculation is approx. 5-10%). If you have problems, just install the latest Intel graphics driver: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19344/intel-graphics-windows-dch-drivers.html

This probably has to do with how the USB-C port works. There are 4 high speed lanes available. Both DP and USB 3.0 are transmitted via these 4 high speed lanes. Since the monitor has a very high resolution, all 4 lanes are required for the DP video signal; a USB 3.0 connection is therefore no longer possible. Only a USB 2.0 connection is possible via the other 4 lanes in the USB-C connection, which are specially reserved for USB 2.0. The LAN connection then also runs via USB 2.0. The note can be found in the manual p.34: https://www.samsung.com/de/business/monitors/s9-s95ua/ls49a950uiuxen/ If the camera explicitly requires USB 3.0, it will not be recognised. You can test this by switching to high-speed data as described on page 34. It may be possible to work around the problem by connecting both USB-C ports to the monitor (but this is just conjecture). Otherwise it is probably necessary to use the Surface Dock and connect the monitor via DP and via USB-C. The Surface Dock works differently than a USB-C connection and transmits DP and USB 3.0 signals over different lines.
