Lenovo R45w-30 44.5" DQHD 165hz Gaming Monitor $997 + Delivery ($0 to Metro/ C&C/ in-Store) @ Officeworks

250

Seems like they have dropped the price on this model at officeworks again. The price drop didn't last for too long last time so I assume it'll be gone again before Christmas.

  • Ugh been looking for a monitor for my sim rig and thought something in this size was out of my budget but this could do

    How does VA panels with viewing angles go on such a wide monitor?

    • Had a 34" va Dell and that was great. Can only imagine how much nicer this would be !

    • 45" non curved for racing might be a struggle but as far as VA goes people must have owned 5 years old VA panels the way they talk about them on here. I've owned 2 in the last year and generally the smearing was barely noticeable even when I tried to make it noticable by shaking my screen around. The viewing angles were also fine.

        It is curved at 1500r kind sir. tips hat

        • Oh it is too my bad, should be okay then it just looks really flat to me in the image

    • I have the Xiaomi 34" Ultra wide curved VA monitor and it does the job perfectly fine. I think you will be very happy with this. Paid $610 for mine in 2020 I think.

    I had to return the monitor because Lenovo's new bracket system did not align with the VESA Mount or any other bracket I tried. Unfortunately, Lenovo has introduced a new design for their VESA Mount. Despite my attempts with three different brackets, I found the process too time-consuming, and I eventually gave up as it wasn't worth the effort. The enjoyment diminished, and now I'm considering the Samsung G9 49 OLED, hoping it goes on sale.

    • I was wondering if 49" would be too much screen for my own good.

    • Kinda weird you were facing issues with mounting. Got mine mounted to two different 100x100 Vesa mount arms (old amazon mount + Ergotron HX) and both work fine & aligned well. G9 49 OLED would be a step up for sure though.

      • No G-Sync for both of them tho….

        • No G-Sync hardware but it's G-sync compatible based on my tests.

      • Issue was this was for my Sim rig and Lenovos new VESA Design is too small to get the screws inside, plus also when I powered the screen on there were lines in the screen, which also led to the return, mind you this was brand new and I know that can happen but. The idea of making it something worthwhile quickly diminished.

          I think the lines thing would be a bigger issue than any compatibility problems… so, fair.

    $1000 for something that is 24” height, seems weird to me, each to their own I guess

    isnt cheaper getting 2 24inch bent (curved) ones

    • It would be cheaper getting two 32 inch ones, actually you could probably get 3 32 inch qhd monitors at this price or not much more. Just isn't the same experience though this serves a different purpose or serves the same purpose but "better" for some people.

    • not really. you have to run doble the cables or triple. you can mount this on 1 monitor arm.
