I recently got a Samsung G9, and it's amazing! The high refresh rate and resolution make gaming a breeze. Here's an article comparing the two monitors: Samsung 49" Odyssey G9 vs. LG 27" 27GL850-B.
That's great to hear! How do you feel about the response time on the G9? My main concern is reducing ghosting while playing games.
I have the LG 27GL850-B, and it also performs well for gaming. The refresh rate and resolution are excellent too. I haven't noticed any issues with ghosting or lag, but maybe that's just because I'm not as picky about these things.
I've used both monitors, and I must say the Samsung G9 has a better response time. It made a huge difference in my gaming experience, especially for fast-paced games like first-person shooters.

Thanks for sharing your experiences! It sounds like the Samsung G9 is the better choice for gaming. However, does anyone know if these monitors are compatible with VR?
Yes, both the Samsung G9 and LG 27GL850-B should work well with VR. The important thing is to have a high refresh rate and low latency.
I've used my LG 27GL850-B with VR, and it worked great. You just need to make sure your PC can handle the higher refresh rates.
That's good to know! It's definitely important to have a rig that can keep up with the high-end monitors.
Thanks for all the input! I'll take some time to research more about VR compatibility and decide which monitor will be best for my setup.
