Samsung g5 Confusion

[baritonejohann]

Hi all.

I have been looking at these G5 Odyssey monitors, particularly the 32" G55C and the G51C. From what I can tell the G55C has better contrast. Is this the only difference?
Im not clued up on monitor tech and could use some guidance, will the 3000:1 vs 2,500:1 be a significant difference? I will be using this for gaming and watching the odd film.

It seems that the G51c has some advantages over the G55C in terms of responsiveness and is apparently less blurry (a criticism of the G55C). looks like ill be grabbing the former. i have no special desire for a curved screen and im gaming in a fairly dark room so no need for the extra nits the G55C has over the G51C.

almost certainly going to go for the g51 unless theres a g55 virtually free.

i just got a pair of the 27" g51 arrived so far only set one of them up and connected it to the pc and it looks good so far im happy now i have to unpack and setup the other one
coming from a 40" 4k120 jvc tv to a pair of these 27s might seem an odd step but I feel this is more apropriate for the use case, plus also 165hz vs 60hz refresh kinda made it feel like the gpu i just bought was more justified LOL! but yeah so far so good.
