Gaming isn’t cheap right now. It’s fine if you’ve already got 1,000 games and you actually want to play them all, but most of us don’t. If you’re looking to get new games, the prices keep going up, if you’re trying to upgrade, well the same is true there too. It makes finding deals more important than ever, especially as everything else keeps getting more expensive too. Well, we’ve got good news if the upgrade you want is a monitor, because we’ve found an incredible deal.

The Samsung 32-Inch Odyssey G5 Gaming Monitor has more stats than a Final Fantasy boss, and it’s going to be a big step up for the vast majority of gamers. It’s usually going to cost you $300, but thanks to the deal on right now, you can get it for $180 instead, which is an amazing 40% off. That kind of discount never lasts for long though.

Beauty And Speed

This monitor has QHD visuals, which means you’re getting 1440p resolution to keep your eyes very happy indeed. If you’ve only been used to HD so far, this is going to feel like the kind of thing Aladdin would be singing about. It’s not just good-looking though, it’s also surprisingly fast. It has a 180Hz refresh rate that means you can hit up to 180 frames per second, and because it has AMD FreeSync, the monitor and your GPU will figure all of that out together. It works most of the time too, which is nice. Some games just aren’t optimized very well, and nothing can help those apart from that one guy on Reddit who said you need to keep one eye closed or whatever.

It also features auto source switch, which means that if a new device is sending a signal, like a console instead of your PC, then it’ll switch over instantly. That’s a big help if you’ve got a whole entertainment system running through this monitor. You can also adjust it in a fair few ways, meaning that you’ll have no problems making it as comfortable as possible, even in strange setups. This monitor does absolutely everything well.

It’s not often you see discounts this large on tech this good, so if you are looking to pick it up, then making sure you do so while it’s down to $180 is essential. It’s nearly the end of the year anyway, and you deserve the finer things in life.
