What’s the point of dropping four figures on powerful gaming PC parts if you’re just going to show off its polygonal power on a 1080p screen? Today, you can give your rig the upgrade it deserves with a Samsung 49-inch OLED ultrawide gaming monitor. At $949.99, it’s not exactly cheap, but it’s $650 off the original price.
Samsung’s G93SC gets discounted pretty frequently—maybe its standard price is more aspirational than realistic—but that doesn’t mean it’s any less impressive as a monitor. With an enormous 5120×1440 resolution on its curved OLED panel, it’s basically two 1440p screens smooshed into one. And the size and resolution aren’t its only superlatives, with it also rocking a 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time. Trying to push that resolution at that speed will bring even the most powerful machine to its knees on any recent 3D game.
This massive ultrawide monitor also includes USB-C video with 65 watts of charging for laptops and plenty of adjustments for gamers, along with a pair of speakers that you absolutely shouldn’t use. It also has VESA mounting for a monitor arm, though you’ll need a beefy one to handle its weight. For all the details, be sure to check out PCWorld’s full review.

Amazon has marked this one as a “limited time deal,” so this price might not stick around for long. That said, this model does go on sale on the regular, so if you’re a little light on disposable income at the moment, I wouldn’t be too put out if you have to let this deal pass you by.
