Samsung OLED TVs Get Long-Awaited New Gaming Feature

Samsung OLED TVs Get Long-Awaited New Gaming Feature

Forbes20-05-2025
Samsung has announced that its 2025 OLED TV range will finally introduce official support for NVIDIA's G-Sync variable refresh rate gaming technology.
Set to arrive first with Samsung's latest flagship OLED TVs, the S95F series, the addition of NVIDIA G-Sync means that PC gamers wanting to use a Samsung OLED TV as a gaming monitor will at last be able to take advantage of G-Sync's ultra-smooth gameplay, low latency and enhanced responsiveness.
The new G-Sync support will appear on the S95Fs alongside the ability to handle the AMD FreeSync Premium Pro refresh rate system (Samsung has supported AMD FreeSync for years now) as well as the 'basic' HDMI variable refresh rate system, finally enabling Samsung TVs to claim truly comprehensive compatibility with all the gaming world's key refresh rate-related technologies.
Samsung has finally introduced NVIDIA G-Sync support to its OLED TVs.
That it should have taken Samsung so long to bring NVIDIA G-Sync to its TVs is a little puzzling given that a) the brand has supported the system on its monitors a while now, b) it has long been keener than most brands to push the gaming credentials of its TVs and c) the OLED TVs of its arch rivals LG have supported G-Sync since 2019. Maybe it was a simply matter of Samsung not thinking it worth securing the official NVIDIA licence for TVs as opposed to monitors. Or maybe there was some issue with the way G-Sync worked with Samsung's own image processing and/or preferences. Whatever the reason for the delay, though, the bottom line is that Samsung's 2025 OLED TVs now tick this key box on a PC gamer's screen checklist.
The newly announced G-Sync support is joined in delivering more fluid and responsive gaming experiences by Samsung's own Motion Xcelerator technology, which enables the S95Fs to handle refresh rates all the way up to 165Hz — a healthy step up from the 144Hz support achieved by last year's S95D OLED range.
The S95F series will get the G-Sync support first, with other Samsung OLED series to follow via ... More firmware updates.
'With the addition of NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility and our most advanced gaming features yet, Samsung's 2025 OLED TVs deliver elite-level performance for even the most competitive players,' said Kevin Lee, Executive Vice President of the Visual Display Customer Experience Team at Samsung Electronics. 'By building on our leadership in display innovation and integrating real-time AI enhancements, we're redefining what gamers can expect from a TV—on and off the battlefield.'
The new G-Sync support joins an impressively long list of other gaming-related features available on Samsung TVs. These include a dedicated Game Hub page of its Tizen OS TV smart interface, where all your gaming sources, from connected consoles and PCs to an extensive collection of game streaming apps and services, are brought together in one place; a dedicated gaming menu screen from which you can activate a series of gaming aids that include an overlaid crosshair, the ability to increase the brightness of dark areas without impacting the rest of the picture and a mini-map zoom feature; and an AI Auto Game Mode that automatically optimizes picture and sound settings based on analysis of the game genre and content being played.
While the S95F series is getting NVIDIA G-Sync support first, Samsung has not revealed at this stage any specific dates for when the feature will also be rolling out to other models in its 2025 OLED range.

Taiwan's Stock Index Set for Record High as AI Optimism Expands

Taiwanese shares are on track for a record high, buoyed by a strong outlook for artificial intelligence and exemption from some US tariffs for major chip makers. The Taiex benchmark rose as much as 1% on Wednesday, set to surpass its previous closing high in July 2024. The gauge is now up 40% from an April low, driven by a rally in Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., the world's biggest contract chipmaker and a key supplier of Nvidia Corp.

Prediction: Nvidia Stock Will Be Worth This Much by the End of 2025

Key Points Nvidia stock experienced an intense sell-off earlier this year, driven by uncertainty around tariffs and competition in China. Rising infrastructure spending by its largest customers suggests that demand remains strong across the artificial intelligence (AI) landscape. Despite a strong rebound over the last few months, valuation trends suggest that emerging AI opportunities may not be fully reflected in the share price yet. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › This year has been an emotional roller coaster for shareholders of Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). Following the news of new tariffs, in combination with intensifying competition in China, the company's shares plummeted by as much as 30% earlier this year, wiping out nearly $1 trillion in market value. Such precipitous declines may have suggested that Nvidia's best days were in the rearview mirror, but the stock's more recent performance says otherwise. As of Aug. 7, it had rebounded by 93% from its 2025 lows and now has a market capitalization of $4.4 trillion, making it the most valuable company in the world. With such strong momentum fueling the stock to new highs, is it too late to invest in Nvidia? Read on to find out. Big tech is spending big bucks on Nvidia's chips Nvidia's largest source of revenue is its computing and networking business. This segment comprises the company's data center services and highly coveted graphics processing units (GPUs). A good way to gauge the health of its business is to look at spending on artificial intelligence (AI). The chart below illustrates capital expenditures over the last three years for cloud hyperscalers Amazon, Microsoft, and Alphabet, along with social media company Meta Platforms. These "Magnificent Seven" companies prove that accelerating AI infrastructure spending is a powerful tailwind for Nvidia's chip empire. Beyond the usual tech titan suspects, rising adoption of cloud infrastructure services from Oracle -- as well as neocloud platforms such as Nebius Group and CoreWeave -- offer another source for GPU demand, especially for Nvidia's latest Blackwell architecture. Neoclouds are gaining interest at the moment as they offer flexible software-hardware stacks in the form of high-performance computing (HPC) services and access to GPU clusters via cloud-based infrastructures. New opportunities are emerging Over the last few years, investors have repeatedly heard pundits chirp about the importance of data centers in powering generative AI development. This point is valid, but I think many investors are missing the broader picture when it comes to the evolution of AI infrastructure spending. A new phase of AI adoption involves sophisticated workloads across robotics, autonomous driving, and quantum computing. Companies such as Alphabet and Tesla are beginning to monetize their autonomous vehicles, while Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon are all developing their own custom quantum computing chips. Nvidia has just started to scale up its chips and CUDA software platform across these emerging opportunities. Given the company's existing deep integration with big tech, I'm optimistic that its product suite will still be crucial in future, more-advanced AI development. What will Nvidia stock be worth by the end of 2025? The chart below illustrates the company's forward price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple throughout the AI revolution. Given the trends cited above, the forward P/E range between 24 and 30 could be seen as a support zone or valuation floor for Nvidia. Each time its forward P/E dipped into this range, the stock has rebounded strongly. To me, this suggests that investors still see robust long-term growth for the company despite occasional fleeting periods of souring sentiment. I think these valuation trends subtly imply that the market could be underestimating the full breadth of Nvidia's ubiquitous platform. Despite the company's influence across AI infrastructure, many investors still view it purely through the lens of a semiconductor business. As these new opportunities are realized, I think the stock is well positioned for a prolonged breakout -- similar to the initial wave of AI-driven enthusiasm a couple of years ago. Although its forward P/E is fast-approaching prior highs, I think there is a solid case to be made that the company is positioned for further valuation expansion and could reach or exceed historical levels. My logic is that the monetization potential of future opportunities in robotics, autonomous vehicles, and quantum computing is still taking shape and not yet fully priced into the stock by investors. If Nvidia's current forward P/E expands to levels congruent with prior highs by the end of the year, the stock could blow past the $200 price point and reach closer to $220 -- implying an increase between 10% and 20% over current price levels. For this reason, I think Nvidia stock will be trading significantly higher by the end of the year than where it is today. Do the experts think Nvidia is a buy right now?
