Personally, I slightly lose interest above 240 Hz when it comes to monitor refresh rates. Of course, I hung up my competitive shooter aspirations a decade or more ago. But if you want to be really, truly competitive, you can't have too many hertz. Which is why the new Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 is big news. It's the world's first 500 Hz OLED gaming monitor.
We've seen 500 Hz panels before, of course. But they've all been LCD panels—and if I remember correctly, 1080p LCD panels at that. Yuck. The new 27-inch Odyssey OLED G6 fixes that not only courtesy of OLED panel technology, but also 2,560 by 1,440 or 1440p resolution.
