I am sitting in front of mine here in August and feel zero heat coming off of it unless i put my hand 1/4" from the screen. Now, If you turn on HDR in Windows for whatever reason, it does get hot. If you turn off HDR in Windows it acts like any other monitor. Not sure why that is. But I turned it off over a year ago and it's perfectly cool.

Love this monitor. Basically two 4k monitors side-by-side.

Be warned though, it's practically a space heater. Great in the winter, not so much in the summer.

Samsung's 57 inch Odyssey Neo G9 is a huge dual 4K ultrawide that shines for productivity and gaming, especially with the built in KVM, picture in picture support, and strong multitasking setup. The panel can feel like two 4K monitors side by side, and some setups run it well on Mac with the right hardware and refresh limits. The main caveats are heat, which can be noticeable with HDR and high refresh use, and desk space, since the stand and V legs are large. Mac font rendering, HDMI port reliability, and demanding GPU requirements also come up, making it a powerful but setup sensitive display.

Common Questions (5)

  • It can run very warm, especially with HDR enabled in Windows, high refresh, and full 7680x2160 output. Turning HDR off reportedly makes it feel like a normal monitor, though some owners still describe noticeable radiating heat during long sessions.

    CarpeDeoEspresso_Yes_NowPratticusslickslickety

  • Yes, but the usable HiDPI modes depend on the Mac model and macOS version. Some owners report good results on M2/M4 Pro/M4 Max systems, while others only see limited scaling options such as 3840x1080 or 7160x2160.

    CarpeDeojustinmm2erikj123CarpeDeo

  • It works well for both productivity and gaming, but the 57-inch VA panel needs a lot of desk space and often benefits from an arm or heavy-duty mount. For demanding games at native 7680x2160, upscaling may be needed because the pixel load is extremely high.

  • No USB-C is included; the monitor has DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1 instead. That means it cannot charge a MacBook over one cable, and a Mac mini may need different cabling or Picture-by-Picture depending on the model and desired resolution/refresh.

  • The current non-discount price is $1,449.99, so the EDU/EPP offer saves about $200. Some shoppers also reported stacking targeted Samsung app discounts, an upgrade bonus, a promo code, and an Amex offer to get the effective price lower.

(hopefully someone else can verify...)

No USB-C on this monitor at all, just DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1, so it can't charge your MacBook Air over any cable. You'd need a separate charger for that.

Also when connecting to the Mac mini with one cable won't get you the full 7680x2160 at 240Hz. I believe you'll have to run two cables into it and use Picture-by-Picture mode to get two 4K feeds side by side instead.

Beautiful monitor, except if using for work on a Mac! The fonts don't play well with this one ( at least for me, which is why I downgraded to a 49" )

Apple fixed this recently! You can now get HiDPI font resolutions between 3840x1080 and 7160x2160.

300w max, to quantify the heat concern.
did not see how much depth it takes with the V legs in specs, pictures look like it is non trivial desk size required in that depth direction.

My M2 Mac Studio is connected via one cable, running 7680x2160 @ 120hz. This doesn't contradict what you're saying (240hz), but I wanted to mention it as a point of reference.

Copy - mb for not being clearer though.

If you lower the resolution can you up the hz?

At all resolutions I appear to have three options for refresh: 120hz, 60hz, and "Variable (48-120 Hertz")

(I'm also fairly certain the M1 does not support 7680x2160 with one cable, it's why I got the M2; and I also know that the base M3/M4/etc. chips have different video output capabilities than the Pro/Max/Ultra lines. So I'd suggest OP do research on his specific model. Like, my guess is that even if the M4 Pro Mac Mini might be able to handle this setup, the base M4 might not be able to? But I can't say for sure)

Agreed. I feel no heat from siting in front of it
