[Hong Kong – July 30, 2020] LG Electronics announces the launch of the much-anticipated UHD 4K Nano IPS ultra HD gaming monitor UltraGear™ 27GN950, and launches the WQHD+ Nano IPS curved-monitor UltraGear™ 38GN950 at the same time, fulfilling the requirements of professional gaming enthusiasts. The brand new 38-inch GN950 and 27-inch GN950 both adopt Nano IPS and VESA DisplayHDR600 technologies, the 27GN950 also supports 4K UHD resolution for perfect display of true colors and crisp imaging details. The GN950 series is equipped with the most highly sought-after gaming technologies, fully supporting 144HZ ultra-high-speed refresh rate and 1ms (GtG) response time, and is compatible with NVIDIA G-SYNC® and audio-visual synchronization technologies. Fast as lightning and free from tearing or freezing, a strong sense of reality immerses the player in any chosen gaming environment.

 

The world’s first[1] Nano IPS 1ms (GtG)[2] display with the fastest[2] response, gives players the ultimate competitive edge

LG UltraGear™ 27GN950 is the fastest[2] UHD 4K ultra-HD computer monitor on the market. Its Nano IPS ultra-fine image quality and UHD 4K resolution provide players with hugely detailed, razor-sharp images. The screen has obtained VESA DisplayHDR600 color certification, and with HDR10 color technology it can present the most thrilling depth of field presented in original colors as game designers originally intended. The picture quality and wide, immersive detailing is comparable to that of a high-quality cinema-class large screen. Such a nuanced picture with pure and bright colors can restore the detail and fidelity of in-game scenes; it is especially suitable for role-playing titles, wherein it perfectly presents the costume design and intense details of game characters – in fact it is so meticulous that even a single strand of hair can be clearly illustrated.

 

In terms of response speed, the GN950 series supports a high refresh rate of 144Hz and Nano IPS 1ms (GtG) dynamic mode to deliver unimpeachable response times, ensuring gaming images come out clearly and smoothly, and with no delay, freezing nor tearing.

 

A variety of technologies and functions designed for gaming at a professional level

The new GN950 series can be relied on to provide the strongest possible support for professional gaming enthusiasts. It has passed NVIDIA’s official test and certification, and is compatible with G-sync® and AMD FreeSync™ Premium Pro. Players can compete smoothly and seamlessly in any game situation, capturing opportunities faster than any of their opponents.

 

In order to give players a more satisfying gaming experience, LG also brings an upgrade by way of the Sphere Lighting 2.0 function. When the player turns on the ‘sound synchronization’ mode in Sphere Lighting 2.0, the screen will light up corresponding screen areas according to the dynamic sounds in the game. When the screen synchronization mode is turned on, the screen will automatically increase the brightness of corresponding colors according to visual effects that appear on the screen. This technology guarantees impeccable visual immersion during intense bouts.

 

Stylish design strengthens a total package of immersive visuals

LG has specially created a striking design for this high-end monitor. With circular LED lighting behind the screen body, the frame was designed to be lightweight and aesthetically pure. The display frame on the front of the screen is very slender, allowing players to have a broader view of the gaming situation and enhance the experience. A V-shaped wing design of a fuselage adds style and substance to the stand, and players can adjust tilt, height and rotation.
