The 34-inch ultrawide format and resolution of this Samsung screen is one of our favorite screen sizes and a regular feature on our best gaming monitor guide. It ideally balances an extra widescreen view thatβs great for movies and cinematic games β as well as multi-tasking on your desktop β but isnβt so wide that it makes the screen too big of a poor fit for most game interfaces, as can be the case with really huge displays like the 49-inch Samsung Odyssey G9 G95SC.
The SamsungΒ ViewFinity S50GC LS34C502GANXZA, to give it its full name and model number, includes several other key features thatΒ elevate it above older, cheaper displays, such as including Freesync support and it can reproduce 10.3 billion colors, allowing it to conform toΒ deliver an HDR range. It also includes picture-in-picture (PIP) andΒ picture-by-picture (PBP) modes, allowing you to view too video inputs at once.
Talking of video inputs, you get one DisplayPort and two HDMI inputs so you should have plenty enough to connect up your PC and either a couple of consoles or perhaps your Steam Deck and a Fire TV Stick.
This screen uses a VA type of LCD panel to produce its picture and that means you get a high 3,000:1 contrast ratio thanks to this panelβs ability to produce darker blacks than IPS or TN panels β read our IPS vs TN vs VS guide to find out that the difference is.
The slight downside to this choice of LCD type is that itβs generally a bit slower to respond than the other types. Here, Samsung claims only a minimum response time of 5ms, which compares to most modern IPS and TN displays having claimed minimum of 1ms. As such, this wonβt by the ideal option for those seeking an ultra-fast monitor primarily for playing the likes of CS2, Apex Legends or the new tac shooter, Spectre Divide. For most other game types, though, this response time will be fast enough and combine with the 100Hz refresh rate for a smooth look and feel.
