LG 27GP950-B 27” Ultragear UHD (3840 x 2160) Nano IPS Gaming Monitor w/1ms Response Time, 144Hz Refresh Rate, NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible & AMD FreeSync Pro, DCI-P3 98% VD HDR 600, Black

Picked a couple of these up on sale to replace an old ultrawide set of monitors that started to die.The picture quality/performance on these is impressive, easily worth the price.The software that comes with the monitors is...less so. For example, you can control the LED lighting on your monitors using the software...ONE of the monitors at least. The software currently doesn't support control of more than one monitor, and in fact will *disable* control of the lighting if you have more than one monitor plugged in.You can find a third-party software that lets you control the lights on both monitors, but you shouldn't need to. May not sound like a huge issue, but if you're dropping this much cash on something you expect the software that comes with it to...well, work.

I got this monitor, because I wanted something to use for work and some occasional gaming. I have a 2018 Intel MacBook Pro and a 2019 HP Omen (i7-8750H, RTX 2060 6GB).The LG 27GP95R works great using a USB-C to DisplayPort 1.4 cable connected to the MacBook Pro, which supports running at 4K@95Hz through a Razer Chroma dock. macOS is able to scale everything to "look like 1440p", but with the additional sharpness of 4K. Colors look good and text is sharp.My gaming laptop has a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort, so I can use the same cable to run at 4K 144hz. It's a slightly older computer though, so I have to run games at 1080p, but they still look great. 1080p scales evenly into 4K, so I find that the graphics still look good.Since the 27GP95R is a regular LCD panel, colors aren't going to be nearly as vibrant as OLED or miniLED monitors, but everything still looks much nicer and crisper when compared to a generic office monitor. The viewing angles are good, text looks sharp, and the high refresh rate is amazing for gaming.

newest UPDATE: I now use a different monitor for iRacing. For other games and normal pc use this monitor works good with no issues. That leads me to believe I was having a issue with video card drivers or the one game itself (iRacing). Or could have been caused by bios settings. My motherboard was having issues with my 5800x3D but after bios updates it runs much better.old review: I really like this monitor. But for whatever reason the monitor will sometimes show a black screen for a few seconds. Very disappointing to me since I'm using this for sim racing and those seconds are a big deal when you're going 180mph.Update, if you disable g sync no black screens but was one of the reasons I bought it was to use that. So I never use g sync now.

I was hoping to replace my iMac 2019 with a newer Mac Mini and chose this monitor as a display.All the descriptions and specifications on various sites said that this is one of the best monitors and alternatives to the Apple Studio Display. As it turned out, it is a low-quality alternative with weak backlight brightness and low 4k. After the iMac 2019 Retina, this monitor turned out to be not what most reviews on the sites wrote. I saw this immediately when I turned on this monitor.I asked the seller on Amazon to return the monitor because it did not suit me. I received a code to return the display, but when it arrived at the post office they said that I had to pay a return fee of $ 63I refused and wrote to the seller about this problem. The seller sent me another postal marker with free shipping.5 days after the return I received a refund but they took a payment of 20% of the cost of the goods ($ 88).When I bought this, it was not indicated anywhere on the Amazon website. So I am very upset that I was deceived and was not given the right to a full refund. I think this is unfair and I will write to Amazon support so that they can help me with this issue.

I got this seeing that it is compatible with a ps5 and has everything you could want or need with a monitor. At first I noticed that the screen turns off every time I load into a game for some reason or when I load something. And at first I noticed these little black lines horizontally across the screen originally it was barely noticeable to the naked eye but after maybe 3 months of use by the day the lines consume more space and as of today they take up a small but very noticeable portion of the bottom screen. After 30 minutes or so they fade away but it gets annoying to see. Everything else about this monitor is good maybe a bummer that it has no speakers for the price point but other than that it has good 4k good color customization and overall a good monitor. Maybe mine is defective.

I see many in the reviews are disappointed, and justifiable so. The reality is, there's no simple, perfect monitor on the market in this price range, but the marketing material wants you to believe otherwise. If you understand what you're really paying for, this monitor is reasonable within its class and doing no worse than its competitors.What you're really paying for:4k, 160Hz with adaptive sync, better than average color vibrancy, better than average pixel response time for fast pace gaming.(Note: do not use the fastest response time setting. as it introduces too much reverse ghosting)What you sacrifice for the above features:Contrast, black level, HDR, color accuracy out of the box.There's no monitor that check all the boxes at this price range. This is a reasonable compromise if you're buying this for gaming, but not ideal if you're buying this to watch movie/shows with frequent dark scenes.
