Samsung Odyssey Ark

Looking for a gaming monitor to end all gaming monitors? Samsung’s Odyssey Ark might be exactly what you’re looking for, and it’s just got a $1000 discount at Best Buy.

Monitors come in all manner of shapes and sizes, and the Samsung Odyssey Ark is just a little bit different. It offers a massive 55-inch curved display, as well as a hand where you can reorient the panel upright if you are so inclined.

The biggest problem with the Odyssey Ark is the panel’s price. Launched at $3000, it is certainly not a cheap piece of hardware. Now, a Best Buy deal has slashed the price by $1000, meaning that you can grab this gargantuan beast of a monitor with a discount that won’t make your wallet wince quite as much.

Crammed with features

The MiniLED screen is capable of super-high brightness, rated at 2000 nits, which means it’s perfect for HDR content. The 165Hz refresh rate is also nothing to sniff at if you’re into esports gaming. The panel is also rated with FreeSync Premium Pro, as well as offers a screen curve of 1000R.

I’ve used this gaming monitor before, and thanks to all of those features, it will make playing immersive titles like Baldur’s Gate 3 an absolute breeze. For those who are more productivity-focused, you can also pivot the display vertically, so you can get a more optimal experience for work-based activities.

Moreover, it’s just massive, and who doesn’t want that much screen real estate to play with when experiencing the latest games? Just make sure that you have a powerful enough gaming PC under the hood to push consistent 4K resolutions.
