This is more than most people spend on their gaming PC, so you’d think it must come with some pretty insane features, right? Well, it does certainly come with some great gaming features. And ones that any gamer would probably be happy to have at their disposal. Like the large and in charge 55-inch curved 4K Quantum Mini-LED screen. Or the 165Hz refresh rate. The piéce de résistance though, is its ability to rotate the display into cockpit mode. Which is essentially just flipping the screen from horizontal to vertical. It also comes equipped with Dolby Atmos, which powers the sound to the four corner speakers and two central woofers. Which could alleviate any need for external speakers or soundbars. Seeing as you’d need all the desk space you can get.
You can buy the Samsung Odyssey Ark later this year
While the monitor can be reserved today, it’s not actually available for sale yet. But Samsung says it will launch in early September, so the wait won’t be long to get your hands on one. Provided you’re willing to spend the money. Although pricey, the Odyssey Ark has a lot to offer. Including for console gamers. The monitor features a 16:9 aspect ratio, which means you won’t have to deal with those unsightly black bars on the side of the screen when playing on your PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. Samsung also addresses another pain point with numerous gaming monitors. Terrible access to menu settings and monitor functions. The Odyssey Ark comes with what Samsung calls the Ark Dial. A solar-powered wireless remote that lets you plug through the menus. In short, the Odyssey Ark is a premium gaming monitor with a premium price. With a bunch of snazzy features. And if you’re so inclined, it can be yours sometime within the next month. Samsung Odyssey Ark
