As the name suggests, the gamers among us have also been taken into account. The new UltraGear models promise gamers rapid speed and excellent image quality. There is a choice of 27-inch, 34-inch and a whopping 38-inch. The press release states:
The 27-inch UltraGear 4K UHD monitor features a 1ms Nano IPS display with a 144Hz refresh rate, overclockable to 160Hz. The device also offers hardware calibration to maximize the capability of LG IPS technology and realize precise color reproduction. A single DisplayPort cable supports VESA Display Stream Compression (DSC) technology for virtually lossless performance when processing 4K UHD images. In addition to rich, vivid images and remarkable speed, VESA DSC is HDR compatible and NVIDIA G-SYNC compatible, offering variable refresh rate and adaptive sync technology.
2020 LG UltraWide Monitor
The third new addition to the new model range is the LG UltraWide monitor - a 38-inch curved screen with a resolution of 3,840 x 1,600 (almost 4K).
