Other vendors include ASUS, Dell, Acer, and LG.

The upcoming refresh design of the Odyssey Neo G9 is an ultrawide gaming monitor with 8K resolution. It supports DisplayPort 2.1 as well as AMD FreeSync Premium. The showoff at the AMD event revealed that the monitor might come in black color. Whereas the original Odyssey Neo G9 and the Odyssey G9 were offered in white.

As of now, no further details were shared by the company. The company stated that more detailed information on design and specs will be shared as of January at the CES. Although it might not include the details about the price. The current Odyssey Neo G9 is available at $2,500. Whereas the Odyssey Ark is priced at $3,500.
