If you’re in the market for a new display for your PC, then this Samsung gaming monitor deal could be right up your alley. The Samsung Odyssey G51C has just hit its lowest ever price on Amazon, meaning you can score yourself a 27-inch, 1440p display for just $179.99, saving you a huge 49% in the process.
Samsung is well known for producing some of the best gaming monitor options out there, combining top specs with prices to suit a range of budgets. This particular sub-$180 monitor comes with a 27-inch VA panel with a 3,0001:1 contrast ratio, giving you deeper blacks and higher contrasts than IPS panel alternatives for those immersive open-world gaming visuals.
With this monitor, you’ll also be gaining a top 2,560 x 1,440 resolution along with a 165Hz maximum refresh rate, giving you smoother visuals compared to any old 60Hz 1080p office display it might replace. You also get a height-adjustable stand, a feature often skipped by manufacturers on budget monitors, so it’s good to see it included here.
Meanwhile, the G51C includes AMD Freesync Premium certification, meaning the refresh rate of the monitor will sync up with the output on your GPU to help reduce any screen tearing. While Nvidia G-Sync support isn’t mentioned, we’ve often found that this tech will work on AMD Freesync-supported displays, although there’s no guarantee in this case.
For less than $180, you’re getting a real bargain with this 27-inch Samsung gaming monitor with a very decent spec sheet. You can take advantage of this deal, while the stock lasts, by clicking through to Amazon using this link here. UK buyers can’t buy this exact monitor, but you can grab an Odyssey G5 with a very similar spec sheet for £213.97 using this link instead.
