The new model is the successor to last year’s Odyssey G9 monitor and shares many similarities with the older model. However, it features a Quantum Matrix panel, supported by a mini-LED screen, and Quantum HDR support for maximum brightness.
The Neo G9 features a resolution of 5,120 x 1,440 (which the company calls “Dual Quad High Definition”) and a refresh rate of 240Hz. This all equates to four times as many frames displayed on screen per second. Additionally, there are two HDMI ports, two USB 3.0 ports, and a Display Port installed.
The monitor has a peak brightness of 2,000 nits. To put that in perspective, top-of-the-line HDR TVs typically peak at 1,000 nits. The Quantum Matrix panel is filled with Mini LEDs to control brightness and contrast for ultra-high definition. It also comes with a 12-bit black level, which increases the contrast range to further enhance details even in low-light moments.
