Samsung’s Innovative, Award-Winning MD Series Monitors Provide the Ideal Multi-Screen Viewing Experience for Gaming, Productivity, Entertainment and More
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands – February 2, 2010 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd, a global leader in digital media and digital convergence technologies, announced today that it will be showcasing its award-winning Samsung Syncmaster MD Series Monitors at Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2010. Samsung can be found at Hall 11 Stand K38.
The 23-inch monitor, a CES Innovations Award winner, is designed specifically for multi-screen computing. It is offered to consumers in bundles of three or six and comes with a custom stand. It is designed to meet the needs of power gamers, as well as business users with multi-screen desktop set-ups. It was developed using AMD’s ATI Eyefinity technology to bring an affordable big screen solution to the home or office desktop.
''AMD and ATI took the first steps by developing the Eyefinity technology, but we needed superior monitors to realize our vision. By partnering with Samsung, we were able to combine our technology with Samsung’s leadership in displays and create an ideal large viewing experience for desktop users,” said Rick Bergman, senior vice president and general manager at AMD products group. “The MD Series’ slim bezel and smooth picture quality across multiple screens were exactly what we were looking for when we designed Eyefinity.''
The Multi-Screen Experience
The MD Series has the industry’s thinnest bezel at less than 10mm on all sides - 30 percent thinner than the average monitor - allowing images to smoothly extend across multiple displays. It is the first monitor to bring a 5760 x 2160 ultra high-definition display to the consumer's desktop and is ideal for gamers looking for a commanding view of the in-game experience. It also creates a seamless view for multi-display set-ups in a business setting. Whether users are in finance, design, programming or engineering, the flexibility of the set-up in multiple portrait and landscape configurations increases their productivity.
''Samsung's legacy of producing the highest quality front-of-screen viewing experience is exemplified by this technical innovation,'' said Dominic Webb, General Manager of Samsung’s Display Division. ''Our image quality, combined with our narrow bezel, creates an unparalleled desktop viewing experience for a variety of entertainment and productivity applications.''

The monitors can be set up in almost any multi-screen horizontal or vertical configuration using up to six units, including:
• Single monitor without stand (MD230)
• 3 x 1 landscape or portrait (MD230X3)
