An 180Hz gaming monitor from a top-tier brand can rack up quite a price in today’s market, even in smaller sizes. That said, Amazon is continuing its string of reliable Samsung bargains, making it much easier on your bank account to upgrade your setup. 

As of Aug. 17, the Samsung 32-inch Odyssey G5 (G50F model) gaming monitor is available to buy for only $199 on Amazon. Against its $349.99 list price, that cuts $150.99 off the total for a 43% discount — and is now the lowest price ever seen at the retailer (as confirmed via price tracker camelcamelcamel).

Sold and shipped by Amazon directly, free delivery is available, with orders fulfilled by Aug. 22, while Prime members can get it as soon as Aug. 18. Free 30-day returns are included, too. 

For the money, the Odyssey G5 offers a 32-inch Fast IPS panel with 2560x1440 QHD resolution. That’s 1.7 times the pixel density of Full HD — so when you boot up even the latest games like Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls or Beast of Reincarnation, you’ll get a noticeably sharper display without paying tons more for OLED or 4K.  

Speaking of Marvel Tokon, any fast-paced title like fighting games or shooters will feel incredible to play thanks to the Odyssey G5’s 180Hz refresh rate, too. Along with the 1ms GtG response time, the extra speed should make motion feel much cleaner than on a basic 60Hz or 75Hz screen.

NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync are both supported, helping the monitor stay in step with compatible graphics cards to reduce tearing, lag, and uneven-looking motion. Plus, the classic HDR10 lends brighter highlights and more nuanced shadows, while the IPS panel offers a wide 178-degree viewing angle.

For even more value at the sub-$200 price point, Samsung has also packed in several gaming extras: Black Equalizer for brightening darker areas to make hidden enemies easier to spot, Virtual Aim Point for an on-screen crosshair, and Auto Source Switch+ for automatically jumping to newly connected devices.

Any gamers who fancy trying out 4K OLED can also find LG's 32-inch UltraGear monitor on sale at 40% off. Among even larger monitors, the 40-inch curved Samsung Odyssey G7 is on offer for under $650.
