Samsung has announced the availability of no less than three new high-tech additions to its market-leading Odyssey range of gaming monitors – including the world’s first OLED screen capable of supporting 500Hz refresh rates.

For competitive gamers who want super high refresh rates, bright colors and excellent contrast, Samsung's Odyssey OLED G6 is the world's first 500Hz OLED gaming monitor and it might be exactly what you need.

It looks like we’ve got a genuine arms race going on between Samsung and LG, the most prolific producers of panels of the OLED persuasion. Just last week LG showed off a new OLED panel that could hit 720Hz, but had to make do with 27 inches and 1080p. Samsung’s new Odyssey OLED G6 can do 500Hz on the more popular 1440p resolution.
