When it comes to PC gaming, a gaming monitor is usually the more popular choice for gamers. Most use brands like Acer, ASUS or BenQ. Samsung first started release gaming monitors under the Odyssey moniker last year and it's back with three new models.

In an official announcement, the company confirmed that the Odyssey G3, G5, and G7 would be available globally starting 21 June 2021. The G3 will come in two sizes - 24-inch and 27-inch. On the other hand, the Odyssey G5 and G7 will only have one variant each of 27-inch and 28-inch. Moving on, let's check out some highlights for the three new monitors. Note: This new Odyssey G7 isn't the one from in June last year, which is a curved monitor.

The Odyssey G3 is a Full HD monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time. It supports AMD FreeSync Premium and has an ergonomic stand with height adjustment. Then there's the Odyssey G5, which has a refresh rate of 165Hz, 1ms response time, and QHD resolution (2560x1440). It offers both Nvidia G-Sync and AMD Free Sync Premium while providing plenty of ergonomic adjustments like 90-degree pivoting. Lastly, there's the Odyssey G7 - a 4K gaming monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time. It has features like HDR400, Nvidia G-SYNC, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and more.

The new monitors are currently not purchasable and the prices have not been announced yet. But since they're expected to be released globally, we should get an announcement from Samsung Malaysia soon. Stay tuned to TechNave for our updates on that!
