48″ LG 48GP900-B 4K OLED Gaming Monitor
2022 Release
LG UltraGear 48GP900 48″ 4K (3840×2160) OLED Gaming Monitor
The 48GP900-B is the first Ultragear gaming monitor that uses an OLED panel. This is a simliar WOLED panel to the one that you find in the 48″ LG C1 OLED TV but there are a few key differences. Instead of the semi glossy coating found on the OLED TV, the 48GP900 features an anti-glare low reflective coating that is undoubtedly a better fit for close up monitor usage. It also has DisplayPort connectivity and lacks the built-in Smart TV interface. It does carry over the HDMI 2.1 ports with 4K @ 120Hz compatiblity for PS5 and Xbox Series X owners, as well as VRR and G-SYNC support. Additionally, the 120Hz refresh rate can be overclocked to 138Hz when used as a PC monitor. Lastly, if aesthetics matter for you, there is subtle RGB backlighting on the rear of the monitor that isn’t present on the OLED TVs.

That is to say, it’s a monster of a processor in terms of both workstation and gaming performance.
Likewise, the AMD Radeon RX 6850M XT is currently AMD’s most powerful mobile GPU and its performance is comparable to NVIDIA’s mobile RTX 3080/Ti. It will hold its own in any game you throw at it, and you’ll certainly need the power in order to run games smoothly on the laptop’s native 4K display.

The RTX 3080 Ti is one of the most powerful cards in the RTX 30 series linup, features DLSS and ray tracing, and is an excellent GPU for 4K gaming. It’s about 10% more powerful than the RTX 3080 at 4K. It’s on par with the RTX 3090 in gaming prowess (the RTX 3090 has more VRAM which is better for graphics workstation builds but not for gaming). This PC will be able to push just about any game at 60fps+ speeds, even at 4K resolution. The AMD Ryzen 7 5800X CPU is an excellent all-around processor and won’t bottleneck your gaming.

The RTX 3060 Ti is about as powerful as the previous generation’s RTX 2080 SUPER; it’s more than powerful enough to handle just about any game out there at up to 1440p or VR gaming. The RTX 3060 Ti also represents the best bang for your buck among the RTX 30 series GPUs. There’s a big performance jump from the RTX 3060 to the RTX 3060 Ti, but a much smaller one from the RTX 3060 Ti to the RTX 3070.
Crucial P5 Plus 2TB M.2 SSD for $161.99
PS5 Compatible
Crucial P5 Plus 2TB PCIe Gen4 x4 M.2 SSD (up to 6600Mbps)
Crucial’s newest M.2 SSD meets all the requirements for your PS5 SSD upgrade. It supports transfer speeds of up to 6,660MB/s which is well above the 5,500MB/s minimum threshold. Yes there are faster SSDs out there, but if your intention is to put this in your PS5, then that extra speed is worthless because you’re bottlenecked by the original PS5 SSD. If you’re worried about opening up your PS5 case, don’t worry it’s very easy. Crucial has an official YouTube PS5 SSD install guide to see you through the process. You will need to install a heatsink on this. We recommend this one for only $10.
Hisense U6H 55″ 4K QLED Google TV for $498
Amazon currently has the 2022 Hisense U6H 65″ 4K QLED Google TV for only $499.99. That’s a hefty $300 price drop from its original $799.99 price point. This was one of the best selling TVs during Black Friday, at the exact same price. The Hisense U6H is a 2022 TV model that offers a lot of features for a 65″ TV at the $500 price point. This TV boasts a quantum dot display (QLED) with a full-array LED backlit panel with local area dimming and wide color gamut (ULED). It also has a high peak brightness of 600nits, which means this is a solid TV choice for brightly lit rooms with poor light control. Although the U6H doesn’t have a 120Hz panel, it is still a good choice for a gaming TV because it has variable refresh rate and a very low response time.

Samsung Electronics Unveils Its New Odyssey, ViewFinity and Smart Monitor Lineups at CES, Igniting the Next Generation of Display Technology
The Odyssey Neo G9’s groundbreaking dual UHD 57” curved display paves the way for monitors in 2023 and beyond
Samsung Electronics today announced the company will introduce new models in its monitor lineup, expanding its visual display leadership for the users.
New offerings in the Odyssey, ViewFinity and Smart Monitor lineups at CES® 2023 will deliver unmatched image quality and a range of innovative features for people looking to work, play and live through their monitor display.
Samsung is revolutionizing the ultra-wide display category by launching the Odyssey Neo G9, the world’s first single monitor with dual ultra-high definition resolution. This innovation is a testament to Samsung’s industry-leading position in delivering the most immersive and lifelike gaming experience available on the market.
“We are introducing the future of gaming monitors with our Odyssey Neo G9, making each game more lifelike with innovative features and picture quality on a new scale,” said Hoon Chung, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics. “CES is the perfect place to showcase our innovations that can take not only gamers but also graphic designers or TV fans to the next level while providing personalized experiences across a range of integrated smart apps.”
Odyssey Neo G9: The World’s First Dual UHD Gaming Monitor
The Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 Gaming Monitor (Model Name: G95NC) lets gamers see new levels of detail with an unparalleled field of view. The gaming monitor delivers 7,680×2,160 resolution and a 32:9 aspect ratio in one screen for the first time.
Its 1000R curved 57” screen uses quantum mini LED technology with VESA Display HDR 1000 specification to deliver superior imaging in any gaming environment, from shadows to bright scenes. The Matte Display reduces light reflection on the screen, minimizing distractions during the most intense gaming sessions.
It also boasts the world’s first DisplayPort 2.1 support, which transfers data approximately twice as fast as the previously used DisplayPort 1.4. In addition, the new DP2.1 allows lossless industry-standard Display Stream Compression (DSC) to transmit information without distortion.
The Odyssey Neo G9 also supports a refresh rate of 240Hz so that gamers will not miss a thing during fast-paced gameplay.
Odyssey OLED G9: Brighter Whites, Deeper Blacks and Near Infinite Color Contrast
The Odyssey OLED G9 (Model Number: G95SC) is the latest addition to the Odyssey lineup, featuring a dual quad-HD 49” 1800R curved display with a 32:9 ratio. Its quantum dot technology OLED lighting is controlled pixel-by-pixel, allowing a near-infinite color contrast ratio.
The OLED screen illuminates each pixel separately and does not rely on a backlight, allowing a 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio while delivering true RGB and true black without color filters.
For smooth gameplay, the Odyssey OLED G9 also features a 0.1ms response time and 240Hz refresh rate to eliminate lagging and skipping.
The Odyssey OLED G9 also uses apps from partners like Prime Video, Netflix and YouTube through Smart Hub, which allows users to enjoy various over-the-top content using an internet connection without the need for a PC.
It is also equipped with Samsung Gaming Hub, an all-in-one game streaming platform that allows gamers to discover and play games in the cloud from partners such as Xbox and NVIDIA GeForce Now without needing a console or to download games.
ViewFinity S9: Smart Color Calibration Designed for Creative Professionals
The ViewFinity S9 (Model Number: S90PC) is Samsung’s newest addition to its monitor lineup. It features a 5K 27” screen for the first time and is optimized for creative professionals such as graphic designers and photographers. Its 5,120 x 2,880 resolution, combined with its wide color gamut of 99% DCI-P3, provides crisp and true-to-form details, and its average Delta E ≦21 color accuracy also produces clear and precise color representation, even in complicated or nuanced visual environments.
The monitor’s built-in Color Calibration Engine ensures precise screen color and brightness, allowing users to adjust white balance, Gamma and RGB color balance for perfect accuracy with their smartphones through the Samsung Smart Calibration application. The Matte Display limits light reflection and glare to minimize distractions while working.
Users can connect cameras and other devices to the monitor through USB-C and Thunderbolt 4 connections to easily transfer gigantic files of high-resolution video or other large data sets from storage devices to their PC. The ViewFinity S9 Series comes with a 4K SlimFit camera and supports native video conferencing through apps such as Google Meet that are included in the Samsung Smart Hub.
Smart Monitor M8: Bringing Productivity, Entertainment and Personal Life Together
The Smart Monitor M8 (Model Number: M80C) features stylish and slim design and now comes in a new 27” size in addition to the existing 32” size, both with 4K resolution. It comes in four color options that allow this monitor to fit in any room: Daylight Blue, Spring Green, Sunset Pink or Warm White.
The height-adjustable stand with tilt support gives users the best angle. The screen can now pivot 90 degrees, which helps users view long documents with less scrolling. It also meets VESA mount compatibility standards to help save space and retain a clutter-free environment.
The Smart Monitor M8 can connect, control and manage hundreds of compatible connected devices through the built-in SmartThings Hub, including lights, cameras, doorbells, locks, thermostats and more. Samsung plans to expand device choices and usability by supporting Matter functionality and Home Connectivity Alliance standards from this year onwards.
Mouse control functionality has been added to many of the Smart Monitor’s over-the-top apps, including SmartThings and the Smart Hub, for a new level of convenient control without a remote.
Users can use the Smart Monitor M8 to get instant access to Prime Video, Netflix, YouTube and other over-the-top services through Smart Hub. They can also easily access Samsung Gaming Hub, the all-in-one game streaming platform.
The new My Contents feature provides users with helpful information at a glance. When the monitor is on standby mode and detects a registered smartphone through low-power Bluetooth, it shows the user’s personalized photos, schedule and more on the screen. The monitor returns to standby mode when the phone moves out of range.
The integrated SlimFit camera in the Smart Monitor M8 has been upgraded with 2K resolution and works with video conferencing apps such as Google Meet.
In addition, the Smart Monitor M8 is also protected by Samsung Knox Vault, which encrypts personal data and keeps stored files and information isolated from the device’s main operating system to safeguard it from attacks.

NASA cancels climate change satellite to monitor greenhouse gases
All good things must come to an end, and in the case of NASA’s GeoCarb mission, some good things must end before they really begin.
NASA has canceled the GeoCarb mission, which was a collaboration with the University of Oklahoma and Lockheed Martin that intended to put a greenhouse gas–monitoring satellite into geostationary orbit. GeoCarb would have measured levels of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and methane in the atmosphere about 4 million times per day. The mission was selected by NASA in 2016.
“Decisions like this are difficult, but NASA is dedicated to making careful choices with the resources provided by the people of the United States,” Thomas Zurbuchen, NASA’s associate administrator for science, said in a statement. “We look forward to accomplishing our commitment to state-of-the-art climate observation in a more efficient and cost-effective way.”
Related: 10 devastating signs of climate change satellites can see from space
According to NASA’s statement, the decision to end GeoCarb was due to “technical concerns, cost performance and availability of new alternative data sources.” The most recent anticipated cost of GeoCarb was $600 million, much higher than the mission’s original $170.9 million estimate.
As for those new data sources, they include the new Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) instrument that arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) in July, as well as the mission extension of the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-3 instrument that began work in 2019 also aboard the ISS.
NASA is also working on the Earth System Observatory, a series of Earth-focused satellites due to launch by 2030. The satellites will study aerosols, clouds, surface biology and geology, and surface deformation and change, among other areas of research.
“NASA prioritizes understanding how our home planet is changing — and greenhouse gasses play a central role in that understanding,” Karen St. Germain, NASA Earth Science division director, said in a statement. “We are committed to making key methane and carbon dioxide observations, integrating them with measurements collected by other national, international and private sector missions, and making actionable information available to communities and organizations who need it to inform their decisions.”

Cyber Monday Deal: $900 Off the 49″ Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 Gaming Monitor
Amazon is offering the best prices on the 49″ Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 and G9 gaming monitors for Cyber Monday. If they seem familiar to you, that’s because they’ve been carried over from Black Friday. It’s nice that Amazon has kept the price the same because everyone else (including Samsung direct) has raised the price of the Neo G9 by $100 or more. On top of that, Amazon is offering an additional 10% cashback in savings for anyone who pays with an Amazon Prime Card.
Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 49″ Mini LED Gaming Monitor: One of the Best Gaming Monitors Around
10% Cashback with Amazon Prime Card (Must Be Logged In)
Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 49″ 4K Gaming Monitor
Extra Potential Savings Alert: If you have an Amazon Prime Card, you can get 10% cashback ($140). That effectively drops the price to $1259.99. If you’re an Amazon Prime member but you don’t have the Amazon Prime Card, well then you should totally sign up for one, since there is no annual fee. This is an amazing card because it gives you 5% cashback on all purchases on Amazon all year round.
So what makes this monitor worth the price? The main thing is the Mini LED display. Samsung’s highest end “Odyssey” series gaming monitor is also Samsung’s only monitor equipped with a Mini LED backlight combined with a quantum dot (QLED) panel. You’ll find Mini LED backlights only in the higher end 4K TVs as well as the newest Apple iPad Pro 12.9″ XDR display, the priciest iPad on the market.
The Samsung Neo G9 isn’t a one trick pony, and all the other specs live up to the hype of a top-end gaming monitor. This truly massive 49″ curved panel monitor boasts a pixel dense 5,120×1440 resolution. That curve, by the way, is pretty extreme (1000R), to the extent that it almost hugs you as you play games. It offers a 1ms response time and a 240Hz refresh rate, which means virtually no input lag or motion blurring. It is HDR2000 certified, meaning it is possible of displaying a searing peak brightness of 2000nits. Plus, it offers G-Sync and FreeSync Premium Pro support. And it has two HDMI 2.1 ports.
Obviously the Samsung Odyssey Neo G9 isn’t a monitor for everyone. You need a rather generous gaming budget if you want to add this to your rig. The cost keeps many us gamers at bay, but certainly the barrier to entry has been signficantly lowered with this deal today.
Samsung Odyssey G9 49″ Gaming Monitor
Samsung Odyssey G9 49″ 5120×1440 Curved 1ms 240Hz QLED Gaming Monitor
The Samsung Odyssey G9 was released in August of 2021, so it’s only one year older than the Neo G9. The only real difference is that the Odyssey G9 doesn’t have a Mini-LED backlight. That means it has less local dimming zones and a lower brightness rating (HDR1000 certified vs HDR2000). Everything else is virtually identical. The Odyssey G9 is a 49″ 5120×1440 1000R curved display with a fast 1ms response time, 240Hz refresh rate, and NVIDIA certified G-SYNC compatibility. The HDR1000 quantum dot (QLED) panel boasts 125% more color space than the sRGB standard (95% DCI-P3). If it matters to you at all, this monitor is great to look at as well, from the front as well as the back.
Samsung Odyssey ARK 55″ Gaming Monitor
Samsung Odyssey Ark 55″ Curved 4K 165Hz Mini-LED QLED Gaming Monitor
We can’t mention Samsung’s “best” gaming monitors without mentioning the new Samsung Odyssey ARK. This is a gargantuan 55″ gaming monitor (not TV) with a Mini-LED backlight and QLED panel much like the Neo G9. It has an aggressive 1000R curvature for maximum immersion and has a fast 165Hz refresh rate. For a screen of this size, it has an extremely versatile stand. You can even pivot it to “cockpit mode” for an incredibly vertical experience. Unlike most other gaming monitors, the Odyssey ARK is also equipped with a surprisingly capable sound system.
