Why you should buy the Samsung 32-inch Neo G8

Two of the most crucial monitor features for a PC gamer are input lag and response time. The faster your monitor is able to process one frame to the next, and the quicker your gaming inputs are realized, the better the chance you’ll have at downing a foe, winning a match, etc. The Samsung Neo G8 delivers up to a 240Hz refresh rate and 1ms GTG response times, making it one of the fastest 32-inch monitors out there.

On top of excellent motion clarity, the Neo G8 brings 3840 x 2160 resolution to the table, along with Samsung’s Quantum HDR 2000 picture processing and upscaling. Thanks to powerful mini-LED lighting, you’ll have zero issues seeing every square inch of your in-game environments. Samsung claims the Neo G8 pushes up to 2,000 nits at peak brightness, which is pretty extraordinary! You can also expect mesmerizing HDR performance from the Neo G8, complete with rich colors and unbeatable contrast levels.

Other great features include a medley of different ports, including HDMI, USB, and a handful of others, Samsung’s Auto Source Switch+ tech for automatic input switching, and a height/angle-adjustable monitor stand. It’s hard to say how long this discount is going to last, so now could be the best time to buy.

Save $500 when you purchase the Samsung 32-inch Odyssey Neo G8 Gaming Monitor at Best Buy today, and be sure to check out some of the other great Best Buy deals we’ve been finding. Want more Samsung hardware? Take a look at the best Samsung deals we’ve been tracking down.
