Samsung Odyssey G80HS ships 32-inch IPS with 6K 165 Hz and dual-mode 330 Hz
↗
Samsung's Odyssey G80HS is a 32-inch IPS gaming monitor offering 6144x3456 at 165 Hz or 3072x1728 at 330 Hz, with DisplayPort 2.1, wide-gamut color, and HDR10, priced at $1,599.
This monitor pushes pixel density to 224 ppi in 6K mode, well beyond the typical 4K 32-inch standard, with a dual refresh feature that accommodates both resolution and framerate priorities. The 6K mode demands exotic GPU hardware like an RTX 5090 for over 120fps, while the lower-resolution 330 Hz mode is more attainable with current high-end cards. The inability to use Adaptive-Sync and overdrive simultaneously is a meaningful trade-off at this price.

The G80HS offers 6144x3456 at 165 Hz or 3072x1728 at 330 Hz, requiring DisplayPort 2.1 or HDMI 2.1 with high-bandwidth cables for full 6K operation.
Running 6K at over 120fps requires a GeForce RTX 5090, making the dual-mode 330 Hz refresh feature essential for practical gameplay on current hardware.
Adaptive-Sync and overdrive cannot be enabled simultaneously, a significant limitation for a $1,599 gaming monitor.
