Gamescom 2026 started yesterday and Samsung unveiled four gaming monitors from the Odyssey line that boast some impressive specs \u2013 including one that can go up to 1,100Hz refresh rate. Yes, over a thousand hertz.<\/p>\n

\"Samsung<\/p>\n

Starting with the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 (G95SJ), this is the world\u2019s first 49\u201d Dual QHD monitor with 360Hz refresh rate. It has a curved 5th gen QD-OLED panel, which is 1.3x more efficient than the previous generation while also having double the longevity. Pixels have a full RGB stripe for sharp text and the display can reach up to 1,300 nits on a 3% window in 4K resolution.<\/p>\n

The G9 normally works at a resolution of 5,120 x 1,440px with a 360Hz refresh rate (0.03ms GtG time). However, it also offers a 720Hz mode, though that drops the resolution to 2,560 x 720px.<\/p>\n

\"Samsung<\/p>\n

The Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 (G80SJ) offers similar specs in a more conventional 32\u201d UHD format. Its QD-OLED panel can run at 360Hz when using UHD resolution, but you can also enable a 520Hz mode at QHD resolution and even a 680Hz mode at FHD.<\/p>\n

The G8 uses the Samsung Glare Free film that is 54% less glossy than traditional anti-reflection films. Also, it\u2019s rated VESA DisplayHDR TrueBlack 600 and supports both AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and Nvidia G-Sync Compatible. There is one DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20 to handle the high-resolution, high-refresh rate input, two HDMI ports for additional devices, one USB-C port with 98W USB Power Delivery and a built-in USB hub with two ports and KVM.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the Samsung Odyssey OLED G7 (G75SJ), a curved (1000R) 16:9 OLED gaming monitor that has a 42\u201d diagonal \u2013 that\u2019s 72% more surface area than the 32\u201d monitor. It has an OLED panel with 4K resolution and 165Hz refresh rate.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

Finally, Samsung originally introduced the Odyssey G6 (G60H)<\/a> just ahead of CES. However, the company has since improved this 27\u201d IPS LCD monitor \u2013 it\u2019s the world\u2019s first 1,100Hz gaming monitor. This is only at HD resolution, though. The QHD mode offers a sharper picture and a still ridiculously fast 600Hz refresh rate.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it for the monitors, but Samsung had another announcement as well. It has partnered with Activision Blizzard to bring HDR10+ Gaming to 20 AAA titles<\/a>. This should be done by the first half of 2027 and it will start with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. HDR10+ is a royalty-free HDR standard supported by Samsung and others \u2013 it has a set of gaming features and there is also HDR10+ Advanced<\/a> for movies and TV shows.<\/p>\n
