Samsung just announced five new displays that will take your gaming rig to the next level, offering resolutions from QHD all the way up to an eye-popping 6K. The most interesting model in the company’s press release is the 32-inch Odyssey 3D, which offers a glasses-free 3D experience with a GPU-crushing 6K (6,144 x 3,456) native resolution. Aside from its glasses-free 3D capabilities, which use real-time eye tracking to deliver depth and perspective, it also boasts a 165 Hz refresh rate and 1ms GtG response time. It also has a dual mode setting which drops the resolution to "3K" while boosting the refresh rate to 330 Hz.
6K at 165Hz might sound ridiculously difficult to drive, but we live in the era of DLSS upscaling and MFG. The extra pixels and refresh rate headroom afforded by a 6K 165Hz display gives well-equipped gamers more options for tuning performance to taste with ridiculously powerful graphics cards like the RTX 5090.
Samsung also revealed the Odyssey G6, a 27-inch QHD LCD screen that offers a 600 Hz refresh rate at its native resolution. But if you drop the resolution down to 1080p, you can take advantage of a mind-blowing 1040 Hz refresh rate. Whether the physical LCD itself can keep up with that blistering speed remains to be seen, but it'll offer incredible responsiveness and clarity if so. Of course, this display comes with all the other features you’d expect from a serious gaming monitor, including AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, Nvidia G-Sync compatibility.

There are also three new Odyssey G8 models, featuring resolutions from 4K to 6K. These offer relatively high refresh rates starting at 165Hz and are available in 27-inch and 32-inch sizes. All these monitors use IPS LCD technology, except for the 32-inch 4K Odyssey G8 which uses QD-OLED.
The company said that all five screens will be showcased at CES 2026 from January 6 to 9 in Las Vegas, but it hasn’t revealed the availability and pricing for these monitors yet. But given the unique features and high resolutions used in these screens, we expect them to be priced at a premium.
Still, this new family of displays is likely targeted at those who can afford systems that can drive 4K resolutions at high refresh rates, so money is likely not an issue for the gamers they're designed for.
