Best gaming monitor deal: Get nearly 40% off the Samsung Odyssey G5 at Amazon

TL;DR: The Samsung 27-inch Odyssey G5 (G50F) QHD gaming monitor is on sale at Amazon for $169.99, down from its $279.99 list price.

Getting into 180Hz gaming doesn’t necessarily mean you need to spend OLED-levels of money, especially when one of Samsung’s most affordable Odyssey monitors has gotten a huge price cut once again.

As of Sept. 8, the Samsung 27-inch Odyssey G5 (G50F model) is available on Amazon for $169.99 as part of a limited-time deal. That’s $110 below its $279.99 list price, which equals a 39 percent savings on the QHD gaming monitor. 

Amazon is handling both the sale and shipping itself, with free delivery showing for Sept. 9 at the time of writing; this new deal is only 99 cents off its lowest-ever price, which Mashable confirmed when checking the price tracker camelcamelcamel. 

Rather than stretching 1440p across a larger panel, this G50F fits its 2560×1440 resolution into a 27-inch Fast IPS screen. Samsung rates QHD at 1.7 times the pixel density of Full HD, while the panel’s 178-degree viewing angle is designed to maintain clear colors across a wider viewing angle. 

With that, you’ll be comfortable no matter what when catching up on single-player games like Crimson Desert or multiplayer hits like Roblox.

What’s more, with the pairing of a 180Hz refresh rate with a 1ms GtG response time, you’ll even be equipped for the most fast-paced games like Fortnite and League of Legends. NVIDIA G-Sync compatibility and AMD FreeSync are included as well, syncing compatible graphics hardware with the display to reduce tearing and choppy-looking frames.
