Samsung has announced a new 27-inch gaming monitor that’s the latest in its lineup of curved gaming monitors, this time with a speedy 240Hz refresh rate and Nvidia G-Sync compatibility. In case you wonder, Nvidia G-Sync is a proprietary adaptive sync technology developed by popular graphics processing units (GPU) manufacturer Nvidia that eliminates screen tearing by letting a video display adapt to the frame rate of a graphics card rather than that of the device itself.

Other features of the new gaming monitor (Samsung CRG5) include:

  • 1920×1080 full HD resolution
  • 3000:1 contrast ratio
  • Near edge-to-edge screen (minimal bezels)
  • 16:9 aspect ratio
  • 300 candela/㎡ (brightness)
  • 178° viewing angle. That is, one can still see what’s on the monitor standing up to 178 degrees to its front.
  • 4ms GTG response time
  • HDMI support
  • 150 cm curvature radius
