FAQs

What is the warranty period for the Samsung Odyssey G5?

The warranty period is 2 years.

How do I adjust the monitor's settings?

Use the buttons on the back or bottom of the monitor to access the on-screen display (OSD). From there, you can adjust brightness, contrast, color, and other settings.

Does the monitor have built-in speakers?

No, the monitor does not have built-in speakers. You'll need to connect external speakers or headphones.

What is the difference between 1000R and other curvatures?

1000R curvature means the screen curves in a radius of 1000mm, providing a high level of immersion, wrapping around your field of view more closely than lesser curves.

How do I enable AMD FreeSync?

Enable FreeSync in the monitor's OSD and in your AMD graphics card's control panel software. Ensure your graphics card drivers are up to date.

What type of panel does the Odyssey G5 use?

The Odyssey G5 uses a VA (Vertical Alignment) panel.

Can I mount the monitor on a wall?

Troubleshooting

Monitor is not displaying an image.

Check the power cable and connections. Make sure the monitor and computer are both turned on. Try a different cable or input.

Image is blurry or distorted.

Check the resolution settings on your computer. Make sure the monitor is set to its native resolution (2560 x 1440). Check the cable connections.

Screen tearing is present.
