Amazon does not state when these deals end, but orders placed now will be returnable until January 31, 2022. For reference, this return window applies to all items purchased between October 1 and December 31, 2021.
The cheaper option is the LC49RG90SSNXZA, which Samsung also refers to as the CRG9. The 49-inch monitor has a 120 Hz refresh rate, an 1800R curvature and a QLED resolution (5,120 x 1,440 pixels).

Additionally, the Neo G9 GN95A has HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort and a USB hub. The 1000R monitor contains Mini-LED backlights too, still a rarity for gaming monitors.
