Samsung Odyssey G5 34-inch monitor
Samsung/CNET

If you're a PC gamer you'll already know how important it is to have the right monitor. And if you like to be as immersed as possible, having a big monitor is absolutely the way to go. That size is no good if the rest of the specs don't match up, but thankfully that isn't something you'll need to worry about with the Samsung Odyssey G5. It's a huge 34-inch ultrawide monster of a monitor with specs to match, and right now you can get yours for just $336 which, frankly, is an incredible value.

This particular gaming monitor would normally sell for around $550 and this discount means you'll pay the lowest price of 2025 so far. You won't need to enter any discount codes or clip any coupons, thankfully, but the limited-time badge on Amazon's product page does worry us. If you want to get this monitor at this price, consider ordering it soon to avoid missing out.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

And you definitely don't want to miss out. The monitor's 34 inches span across a 1,000R curved display with a 165Hz refresh rate and a 1-millisecond response time. It offers an ultra WQHD resolution, which is a fancy way of saying the display measures 3,400 pixels by 1,440 pixels. As you can see in the image above, it comes in any color you like so long as it's black. And it certainly has a presence, shall we say?

The final rundown of specs includes support for AMD FreeSync Premium as well as HDR10, so you can look forward to a nice and vibrant picture.

Around the back, you'll find plenty of ports including HDMI and DisplayPort, so you won't struggle to connect your PC, laptop, console or just about anything else. Enjoy!
