An OLED gaming monitor is one of the biggest upgrades that you can make to your system because the colors, contrasts, deep blacks, and overall picture quality trump every other alternative. Also, you wouldn’t believe how pocket-friendly Samsung’s Odyssey G5 is going on Amazon, because the online retailer has slashed $200 from the total, meaning that you can grab each unit for $349.99. However, that’s not even the best part, because each purchase will give you a free copy of Resident Evil Requiem, with the game’s official launch right around the corner.
The Odyssey G5 has an ultra-fast 0.03ms Gray to Gray (GtG) response time, with Samsung’s QHD gaming monitor providing the sweet spot for high refresh rate gaming
Measuring 27 inches diagonally, Samsung’s Odyssey G5 offers sufficient screen real estate for you to immerse yourself in AAA gaming sessions and to tackle some productivity. The OLED gaming monitor sports a traditional 16:9 aspect ratio, with its resolution measuring 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, along with an 180Hz refresh rate. As some of you know, OLED technology is superior to mini-LED and IPS LCD in response times, and the Odyssey G5 is no exception because Samsung claims an impressive 0.03ms GtG response time, giving you a tactical advantage in your favorite competitive first-person or third-person shooters.
Now, we can understand your apprehension towards upgrading to an OLED gaming monitor, with the biggest one being that dreaded burn-in. Fortunately, Samsung has incorporated its OLED Safeguard that keeps the display cool and protects it during prolonged use. It’s also incredible to find out that the Odyssey G5 supports both NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync technologies, which is rare to see on a $349.99 gaming monitor. As for the ports, you get one HDMI, one DisplayPort port, one power input, and one 3.5mm audio jack.
If you want to get your productivity juices flowing, you can grab two or even three of these for a multi-monitor setup. As for those eagerly waiting for the release of Resident Evil Requiem, Capcom will make its latest survival horror entry available from February 27, so mark your calendars because you guys are in for a treat.
