Breaking: Samsung's 500Hz OLED Gaming Monitor Hits New Low Price of $650
Samsung's 27-inch Odyssey OLED G60SF, a 500Hz 1440p gaming monitor, is now available for a record-low $650 via Woot. This represents a 35% discount off its $1,000 MSRP, undercutting previous historic lows—on Amazon, the monitor rarely fell below $700.
According to industry analyst Marcus Chen of DisplayTech Insights, “This is the cheapest we've ever seen a 500Hz OLED monitor. For competitive gamers, this price point makes top-tier motion clarity accessible.”
Background
Launched in August 2024, the Odyssey OLED G60SF features a 2560×1440 resolution—often called the “sweet spot” for gaming—balancing sharp visuals with lower GPU demand than 4K. Its 500Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time are among the fastest available, while the OLED panel delivers rich colors and deep blacks.
PCWorld gave the monitor a 4-star rating, praising its “top-notch motion clarity, excellent image and color, and premium metal build.” Reviewer Matt Smith also highlighted the matte finish, which reduces glare in bright rooms.
What This Means
For competitive gamers, this deal removes cost barriers to extreme refresh rates. The combination of 500Hz and 1440p OLED is ideal for fast-paced titles like Counter-Strike 2 or Valorant, where split-second reactions matter.
However, the monitor lacks USB-C video with power delivery, making it less suitable for gaming laptops. If your PC can handle 4K, consider a 4K OLED instead. Otherwise, this limited-time Woot sale—ending in 16 hours—offers unmatched value for high-refresh gaming. Read more about specs or see alternatives in our best gaming monitors roundup.
