The UD590 is an optimal monitor for PC gaming, with an ultra-high definition screen, one millisecond response rate and one billion color gamut, while the award-winning 850 PRO SSD offers the lag-free performance and blazing-fast load times gamers need. Paired with Assassin’s Creed Unity, these products offer gamers the ultimate gaming package.
“Our monitors create a one-of-a-kind, immersive gaming experience and our SSDs ensure quick load times and robust performance for drastically improved gameplay,” said Ron Gazzola, vice president of marketing at Samsung Electronics America. “The UD590 premiere monitor and the 850 PRO SSD will bring Assassin’s Creed Unity to life and allow players to experience the game in a completely new way. We’re happy to be providing this extremely popular offering to our customers.”
UHD Display and Rapid Response Time Brings Games to Life
The UD590’s stunning 4K screen offers the ultimate visual experience for game enthusiasts, with four times the resolution and pixels of Full HD displays (3840x2160). The 28-inch screen has eight million pixels to create the clearest and most detailed picture ever. Furthermore, the monitor includes a UHD upscale feature, which converts low resolution content to UHD level picture quality. The result is a stunning, unmatched viewing experience.
The UD590 supports one billion colors, which is 64 times more colors offered by conventional monitors, displaying images in lifelike quality. With one millisecond response time, users can enjoy smooth action in even the fastest moving scenes.
Award Winning Solid State Drives
The 850 PRO SSD offers players a faster, more engaging gaming experience with enhanced visual and graphic effects and game levels that load twice as fast as with a hard disk drive (HDD). The drive’s superior multi-tasking capabilities make choppy or slow performance during extended gameplay a thing of the past. With the Samsung 850 PRO SSD, gamers can spend more time playing and less time waiting. Powered by Samsung’s breakthrough V-NAND technology, the drive offers the highest level of performance among SSDs using the SATA III (6Gb/s) interface.
