PitLanePete's first dedicated sim monitor was an LG monitor with a 21x10 aspect ratio and a resolution of 3,840 by 1,600 pixels.

The LG 49-inch ultrawide monitor cost PitLanePete €1,500 and offered only 144 Hz refresh rate with no real HDR.

Using a normal 16x9 TV for sim racing limits visibility into corner apexes, which can hurt consistency, especially in corners like the last one at the Long Beach Street Circuit.

PitLanePete's available space could realistically only accommodate a 49-inch widescreen monitor for his sim rig.

PitLanePete decided to order a replacement Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 after the initial unit had dead pixels, and the second unit was flawless.
