Despite its large size, the Samsung Odyssey Ark gaming monitor can be rotated clockwise into Cockpit mode. It's not motorized, but it's not difficult to rotate the monitor.

In both portrait and landscape orientation, its Multi View capability lets you make the most of its huge screen by dividing it into sections.

You can add up to four displays in standard landscape mode and three displays in portrait cockpit mode, allowing you to multitask easily. You can play games while chatting on social media or watching YouTube videos, all on the same screen!
