LG 27GP95R-B 27 Ultragear UHD 3840 x 2160 Nano IPS Gaming Monitor w 1ms Response Time 144Hz Refresh

I've been using this for a few months now and the monitor is fine, not the greatest but it's okay, only problem I see with it besides sunlight not allowing you to see the monitor clearly, (regular light in the house is fine) The only problem is once in awhile you have to turn off the monitor and turn it back on because they'll be a weird cut in the middle of the screen that makes you think your screen's screwed but once you restart the monitor everything goes away, this doesn't happen often I believe it only happened to me five or seven times throughout the 6 months of owning it, I believe this problem occurs when You're changing the resolution of your screen on the computer for a game and it glitches out for a second but I'm not too certain Read more

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. Read more

I bought this monitor SAMSUNG 28" Odyssey G70A monitor. The G70A constantly flickered when using adaptive sync and would go to sleep during the flickers or when restarting the computer which required me to manually turn on the monitor. So far I have not experienced any flickering with the LG monitor and the monitor does not shutdown immediately when there is a disruption in connectivity. I have not gotten the OC to work using my 2080 Super and am stuck at 144 hz. Notably, the back of the monitor is not the same as shown in the Amazon photo, the Amazon photo showing significantly less ports. Read more

i use the monitor for mixed work and gaming, and it's awesome. it's super bright with default settings, but luckily it has a nice osd to quickly switch modes when i am doing work and don't want so much light in my face. the only difference between this model and the 27GP950 is the led light ring on the back of the monitor. who needs that anyways? i don't look at the back of the monitor.

I received this LG gaming monitor April 17th, 2023. Used it almost daily with a PS5 and very much enjoyed the picture quality. On September 4th, 2023 the picture suddenly went to just a grayish color. Purchased a new transformer hoping that would fix the problem but it didn’t. So I have to give this product a 1 star review. I’m 70 years old and never had a piece of electronics fail so quickly. Unless you feel $600+ for a monitor that might last less than 5 months is a good value, I recommend spending your hard earned money on a different brand. Read more

Owned my LG 27GP95R-B 27” now for a little over a year. Excelled in certain aspects but there are a few drawbacks. My favorite thing is the actually look / build of the monitor. Really cannot understate this one. Finding an unbranded front minimalist bezel is fairly rare, at least it was when I was shopping for one. I cannot stand seeing an added frame / bezel just to include a company logo. This monitor looks really clean. The display quality is decent but takes some adjustments and messing with the settings to get the most from it. The brightness to colors can be vibrant and well-saturated, making games look nice. But I wouldn't use this for super detailed photo or video work. I have an older monitor purely for work, running at 60hz and it gets brighter and shows a deep black on images. Biggest drawback, by far: flickering where the screen goes completely black for about a quarter of a second then immediately comes back. During games this would occur roughly every hour or so. I did an absolute ton of testing with the monitor's setting, nVidia (3070 ti), Windows 11, etc to find the right settings to stop it while still retaining the highest level of detail & frames... Got new DP 1.4 cables, matched frame rates, tried endless setting adjustments, separated cables in-case of interference, kept the room cold as hell in-case of overheating... honestly I could go all day with the things I tried. In the end, turning off Overclock (thus reducing from 160Hz to 144Hz) was the only thing that stopped the flickering on/off from about every hour to rarely during a game. Doing this unfortunately introduce some character model ghosting in certain games, it's minimal but if you're playing FPS games you might want to avoid this monitor. Read more
