By Although OLED gaming displays are becoming more widely available and more reasonably priced, they still lag somewhat when compared to the quickest LCD screens. A 175Hz or 240Hz one might be cheaper, but even the most ardent e-sports gamers might not be satisfied. For about $550, B&H is currently selling a 27-inch Samsung 1440p OLED with a 360Hz display.
High-skilled gamers should be able to dominate online shooters and other fast-paced games with that 360Hz panel speed and 0.03ms response time. AMD FreeSync Pro is supported, of course, but Nvidia G-Sync and any USB-C connectivity are conspicuously absent from the G60SD’s specs list. However, you do get two USB-A connections, DisplayPort, and dual HDMI for additional devices.
This one is feeling a little spare for all-around duty, with 250 nits of brightness and no single-cable connectivity to gaming computers. However, for the time being at least, it’s the fastest OLED you’re going to find in this price range. Samsung charges a premium for its attractive designs, but B&H is selling it for $200 less than its original $900 price. You can also “clip” an additional $150 coupon to get it for $549.99.
While there is no time limit on this offer, it may not last long, so take advantage of it while you can. If it doesn’t appeal to you, take a look at our selection of the top gaming monitors.
