LG has expanded its UltraGear gaming monitor lineup with the new OLED 27GX790A. This 27-inch monitor boasts a 1440p resolution, a blazing-fast 480Hz refresh rate, and a future-proof DisplayPort 2.1 connection.
Key Features
- 27-inch OLED display
- 1440p (2560 x 1440) resolution
- 480Hz refresh rate
- DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR20) support
- 0.03ms GtG response time
- 275 nits typical brightness
While the UltraGear OLED 27GX790A is the first monitor in its class to offer DisplayPort 2.1 UHBR20 (with an 80 Gbps bandwidth), current consumer GPUs don't yet support this standard. As a result, it currently relies on Display Stream Compression (DSC) and DisplayPort 1.4 to achieve its 480Hz refresh rate at 1440p.
Pricing and Availability
The LG UltraGear OLED 27GX790A is currently available in the US for $999.99, directly from LG's website.
