The CJ79 34-inch curved monitor is the first of its kind to feature Intel's Thunderbolt 3 connectivity and is designed for creative and business audiences.
Compatible with Macs and PCs, the CJ79 features two Thunderbolt 3 ports that transmit display, data and power at a processing speed of up to 40 Gigabits per second (Gpbs), eight times faster than USB 3.0, and simultaneously charges devices up to 85 watts(W), all through a single cable.
The 3440?1440 ultra-wide curved display has a 21:9 aspect ratio to provide users with the workspace needed to multi-task.

The 1,500R curved ultra-wide screen, is engineered to follow the natural curve of the eye. With the height-adjustable stand and tilt functionality, CJ79 lets users customize the positions meeting their most comfortable viewing parameters. Furthermore, the Thunderbolt 3 connectivity, a new level of capability to charge Mac or PC let users connect to additional Thunderbolt 3 or USB devices directly to the monitor.
Samsung?s CJ79 incorporates Quantum Dot technology with realistic detail across a 125 percent sRGB color spectrum. The curved VA panel technology produces a 3,000:1 contrast ratio.
The AMD FreeSync synchronizes the refresh rate of graphic cards for the CJ79 to reduce image tearing and stutter.
