Samsung's new Odyssey 6K resolution, 330Hz gaming monitor is doing the rounds for reviews, and by all measures, it's a stunning display. The only problem is, no graphics card on the planet can run it at that resolution without a major drop in frame rate. Even the venerable RTX 5090 falls to its knees trying to render that many pixels.
The problem with 6K is that it's more than 150% the resolution of 4K.
