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.

    Eragornjustinmm2bbg2015justinmm2

  • 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.

Make sure to keep the box. It's not easy to find something to ship it back if you need repairs, and Samsung is shitty to you if you have no nearby service center. Took me 3 months to get my first replaced. Second one they gave me a refund and I bought a different brand.

Guys this monitor sucks ass with amd drivers and you need well over a rtx5070 to run both this and a 5k XD i upgraded to a 7900xtx and it still isnt enough vram lol and i get more issues now with the xtx then the rtx
Not sure why you are having so many problems but I've had a great experience with this monitor and a 9070XT (and a 7800XT before that). Works great for productivity and with gaming. The only caveat to gaming is you need some kind of upscaling in really demanding games at native resolution. But that is true of even the mighty 5090, if less so. 7680x2160 is just a massive amount of pixels for any graphics card and pushes the vram requirements. Upscaling has worked really well though with my 9070XT.

I haven't had any weird driver issues either. I have a 49" stacked on top of the 57" and no issues driving either.

At the same time, I sat in front of mine for over a month and could feel my face literally burning every day from the radiating heat until I ultimately returned it in favor of the LG 5K2K. This was with HDR always off and brightness never above 75, both of which should have resolved this but didn't. Never had even remotely close of an issue like this with the LG and haven't looked back since.

Just curious, what was your issue with your unit that needed repair?

I originally commented that it's only $999.99 with military discount, but I think that may have accidentally clicked the 49 inch version of the G9. Whoops.

There's not a 57" OLED Wink
but you got the rest right. The only way it will ever be that price again imo is if it's an open-box or a price mistake.

I got mine on the woot deal. Haven't noticed a heat difference. I feel like the 4090 I use to drive it is the ultimate space heater.

Another comment from an owner: yes, it can be a space heater. I don't know all conditions where this is true, but it will be very warm if HDR/Windows11/RTX5090/240Hz/7680x2160. When I turn off HDR, the heat goes away.

This monitor absolutely slaps for work and gaming. Do be warned though, the v stand is huge, so arm/desk mount is the way to go. Haven't had issues on MacOS as well.
