Ultra-wide monitors are a relatively new category of monitors that are, indeed, wider than regular monitor. But on Friday, Samsung introduced the first monitor in the new "super ultra-wide" category, and it's outrageously wide.

It's called the CHG90, and it has an aspect ratio of 32:9. For comparison, ultra-wide monitors have a 21:9 aspect ratio, and a normal monitor has a 16:9 aspect ratio.

The CHG90 is part of Samsung's gaming line of monitors that comes with specs and features that gamers can appreciate, like quick response times and AMD's FreeSync 2 technology.
