If you’re looking to upgrade to 4K and also want high refresh rates like something with 240Hz, Samsung’s Odyssey QD‑OLED G8 (G81SF) is designed to do exactly that, and it is currently an incredible deal (purchase links under the specs table below).
The use of QD‑OLED technology means the screen integrates quantum dot filtering with OLED’s contrast capabilities, aiming to deliver consistent color reproduction while maintaining deep blacks. Samsung also highlights a glare‑free design, which is intended to reduce reflections in bright environments and improve visibility across different lighting conditions.
The high refresh rate is intended to minimize motion blur in fast‑paced games, which are generally competitive in nature and you need the best vision all the time, which isn"t possible without a great display. On the topic of gaming, the product comes with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, which means it can remove screen tearing even when the framerate output of your GPU falls below the monitor"s refresh rate.
