The product, explained
About the ASUS PG49WCD
ASUS 90LM09C0-B01970 is listed in the computer monitors category. The recorded specifications include display diagonal: 124.5 cm (49"); display resolution: 5120 x 1440 pixels; maximum refresh rate: 144 Hz. This entry covers manufacturer code 90LM09C0-B01970. Specifications relate to this exact source record; other editions or packages may differ.
The 124.5 cm (49") display is specified at 5120 x 1440 pixels. Consider these together: a larger screen provides more physical space, while resolution determines the number of pixels available. Neither specification establishes brightness, colour accuracy or motion quality.
The listed maximum refresh rate is 144 Hz. To use it, the source device, cable, resolution and input must all support the intended mode. Refresh rate is separate from response time and input lag.

What does the COR Score mean?
One consistent scale makes different publishers’ ratings easier to compare. The original review still tells you why a critic reached that verdict.
