This particular model is the 49-inch version of the Odyssey G9, and it has several other nice numbers attached to its specs sheet as well. The QHD display boasts a 5120 x 1400p resolution with a 240Hz refresh rate and 1000R of curvature. It is Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync compatible.

And did we mention this monitor is huge? Because it's really huge. This 32:9 aspect ration monitor gives you essentially the same screen real estate as a pair of 27-inch monitors. As such, getting a high-end ultrawide like this for only $900 is a superb deal.

Provided that you have the PC gaming hardware to take advantage of this screen, there are a number of terrific games that look astonishing when played in ultrawide aspect ratios. Sony's lineup of PlayStation ports are good examples here, as games like Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered look spectacular on the QLED screen when you add in a wide stretch of Manhattan to swing through while clobbering criminals. It's a unique option that delivers excellent visuals, but if you're looking for something more affordable, there are a bunch of other (smaller) gaming monitors on sale right now.

Corsair, Acer, and Sceptre are just a few of the brands represented in this list below. You can find a great gaming monitor deal below, regardless of your budget.
