How do you choose the right Samsung gaming monitor?

When you're going to choose a Samsung gaming monitor, it's important to know for which games you want to use it. Choose a curved screen for open world games and a monitor with a high refresh rate for online gaming, for example. We'll explain what to keep in mind when you choose a Samsung gaming monitor.

Choose Samsung gaming monitor

There are many different types of Samsung gaming monitors. The best choice depends on your needs and the games you play. Ask yourself the following questions:

  • Which screen size do you want?
  • How sharp does the screen need to be?
  • Which refresh rate and response time do you want?
  • Which games do you want to play?

Which screen size do you want?

Samsung gaming monitors are available starting at 27 inches. They're large monitors, but they'll still fit on your desk. You can use a very large monitor from 32 inches with a minimum viewing distance of 1.5m. This allows you to use the monitor for console gaming when you're on the couch. An ultrawide monitor from 32 inches or super ultrawide 49-inch monitor and larger are the same height as a standard 16:9 monitor, but they're a lot wider. That's useful for first person shooters and open world games, because you can see more opponents and enjoy the virtual world around you more.

How sharp should the screen be?

A Full HD screen is fine for fast shooters, because the sharpness isn't that important. You'll notice that the image quality becomes worse on a larger monitor, so we only recommend a 27-inch monitor for Full HD. Want to see sharp images, even when you game on larger screens? Choose a monitor with Quad HD resolution. If extra sharp images are important to you and you want to see every detail, choose a 4K screen. These screens are suitable if you play open world games or RPGs.

Which refresh rate and response time do you want?

The refresh rate determines how smooth moving images look on the screen. Samsung monitors have a minimum refresh rate of 144Hz. This is good enough for shooters like Call of Duty. Choose 240Hz or more if you're a competitive gamer. With a low response time, you see moving images on the screen faster. Most Samsung gaming monitors have a 1ms response time. Choose a very fast 0.03ms response time for the smoothest images.

Which games do you want to play?

For simple shooters like Counter-Strike or Call of Duty, a smaller monitor with a high refresh rate and low response time is the best choice. You can best experience large open world games or RPGs like Elden Ring on large monitors with a Quad HD or 4K resolution. This image quality is also the best for a strategy or simulation game like Civilization or Microsoft Flight Simulator.
