I would appreciate some opinions

Currently I have two monitors:

24" 1920x1080 60Hz (HP E243)

32" Curved 3440x1440 60Hz (HP S340c)

I primarily use my computer for productivity (email, diagram, word, excel, Secure CRT, etc.) with a bit of video editing in there. This usually includes my primary task on the 32 and the 24 is used for secondary work / documents I need to reference copy from.

For video editing I actually shoot and edit 4k footage, so 4k resolution in some capacity would be ideal.

I do some gaming on the 32" monitor, and don’t really have issues playing at 60Hz.

I have a 3080 so should be able to run pretty much any monitor at this point I’d imagine.

I think I want to move to a single 49" so I can sit center of it and maybe reduce some neck strain as today I sit off center of the 32" which is my main monitor. I like the idea of not having a gap between the two monitors but not opposed to sticking with two monitors if that makes more sense. I know I’ll being missing out on a little bit of width but I am fine with that.

I’m considering the Neo G9, but the QC issues that seem to be very common are a bit concerning. I’m also not sure if there is a better option seeing as I primarily will be doing work and don’t really need 240Hz.
