False.
You said that with your whole chest, and I respect that, but no:
Samsung’s own troubleshooting page for the OLED G9 tells you to go to Menu > System > DisplayPort Ver. > 1.2 or 1.1, then reconnect the cable when the host doesn’t negotiate DP 1.4 cleanly.
Source? Please post a link, this menu does not appear on my G9. I’m guessing this is because Display Port 1.2 only supports 3840×2160 (16:9) at 60Hz max, and the G9 Odyssey screen is 5120x1440 (32:9) resolution at 240Hz, so the geometry simply wouldn’t work to force 1.2, the aspect ratio would be insane.
Also, sysfs output is not what was posted by the LLM, you might be thinking of /proc value returns. For my modeset (kernel config file, not kernel parameter in memory):
-1```

samsung.com/…/about-49-inch-odyssey-oled-g9-displ… (Samsung Taiwan, 49-inch Odyssey OLED G9) Under the no-picture item it says to check whether the PC supports standard DP 1.4, and if it doesn’t, to set Menu > System > DisplayPort Ver. to 1.2 or 1.1 and reconnect the cable. The menus are probably different between the Neo and OLED models. Your ‘-1’ comes from the Intel driver, where modeset is an integer and -1 means the driver default. OP has an RTX 5070 Ti, and ‘nvidia_drm’ modeset is a boolean, so ‘/sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset’ reads ‘Y’ or ‘N’. Files under ‘/sys/module/*/parameters’ show the value the loaded module is running with.
