Samsung's Odyssey Neo G9 2023 is a beautiful monitor, and I loved seeing it at CES. It's just a shame that it might be dead on arrival when it releases.
Check out our complete coverage of CES 2023 live from Las Vegas At CES 2023, I had a chance to look at Samsung’s upcoming Odyssey Neo G9. It’s a monster gaming monitor, and you don’t need to look further than the spec sheet to see that. Dual 4K resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 32:9 aspect ratio with a 57-inch screen? There’s a lot to love.
Related First, the why. The Odyssey Neo G9 comes with a dual 4K resolution, with a pixel count of 7680 x 2160. If you can’t recognize the math, that’s two 3840 x 2160 screens put side-by-side. Samsung is billing this as an 8K monitor, but it’s not true 8K. It has half the vertical resolution. Nvidia’s latest GPUs top out at DisplayPort 1.4a. They’ll work with the Odyssey Neo G9 due to DisplayPort’s backward compatibility, but not at the full resolution or refresh rate. Worse, Nvidia’s GPUs are the only ones powerful enough to drive the resolution and refresh rate of the Odyssey Neo G9; they’re just hampered by the connection standard.
And for the full refresh rate, the RTX 4090 supports Nvidia’s Deep Learning Super Sampling 3 . With DLSS 3’s unique frame generation capabilities, it can easily push into the 200 fps territory, even with a resolution as high as the new Odyssey Neo G9 demands. Frankly, the RTX 4090 is the only GPU that makes sense with Samsung’s latest display.
Make no mistake, the Odyssey Neo G9 is still an end-game gaming monitor. It’s just such a shame that the RTX 4090 can’t fully drive it.
