Samsung 55-Inch Odyssey Ark 2nd Gen. 4K UHD Curved Monitor - LS55CG970NNXGO

Samsung Odyssey Ark 2nd Gen UHD 4K 55" Curved Gaming Monitor

Made to fuse with your gaming PC to make the ultimate setup, the 2nd Gen Samsung Odyssey Ark envelops players in a world of their own exploration. Most gamers will say that the most important factors to look at when shopping for gear are the specs, and this monitor stands out from the crowd with specs like these. 165Hz refresh rate minimizes blur from motion, while a 1ms response time has you reacting the moment something happens. Plus, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro helps minimize tearing and choppiness that might occur between the content and your screen. Whether you're playing with friends online or enjoying a single-player title on your own, the 55" 1000R curved screen will have you feeling like you're right there in the game, with no interruptions.

Upgrades For Your Gaming Set-Up

There's more to a monitor than response time, though. This model comes with built-in speakers crafted with Sound Dome technology. Two woofers and four speakers bring a 2.2.2 audio system to your curving computer monitor, all boosted by AI Sound Booster and Dolby Atmos for 3D sound. The Samsung Odyssey Ark is flexible, too, with the ability to pivot and spin thanks to Cockpit mode. Don't forget that this screen is massive too, and you can take advantage of all of it. The KVM switch allows you to see multiple inputs from different PCs or apps on your screen, then control each of them with the same mouse. That makes this the perfect machine for a streamer, or someone who loves watching shows while they game.

There's lots more to the 2nd Gen Samsung Odyssey Ark that makes it a great monitor for gaming. If you know you love it, order online for fast shipping.
