Samsung’s next ultrawide monitor is an outlier

Aberrant is the only word that comes to mind when looking at the specifications of the future Samsung Odyssey monitor, which will no doubt be announced at CES 2023. It was released during the AMD keynote.

Samsung has been making super-wide (ultra-wide) gaming monitors for years, We tested the Odyssey Neo G9, but his latest is the most impressive of all. In fact, the latest 49-inch Odyssey PC screen has an “8K” definition, which was announced during the dedicated keynote. For AMD Radeon 7000.

At 4K (3840 × 1080 pixels), the screen goes up to 480 Hz, and in its own definition “only” 165 Hz.

Since Nvidia’s most powerful cards are throttled by their DisplayPort 1.4 port, you’ll need a new Radeon card to achieve ridiculous refresh rates at this benchmark.

This new Odyssey, which we can discover at CES 2023, has a mini-LED panel with quantum dots, a curve index of 100R and RGB lighting on the back.
