AMD FreeSync™ Technology

What People Are Saying

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great performer Bought this for some FPS gaming and it does not disappoint. Blacks look good, motion is unreal versus a 60hz monitor. Motion blur reduction really makes a difference. Would recommend this to anyone needing a decent priced gaming monitor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Can't beat the value LG 24GM79G-B 24-Inch Gaming Monitor The 144Hz display has great color and accuracy right out of the box. But, after making some adjustments suggested on various forums, the display is absolutely gorgeous. It is hard to believe this is a TN panel. The quality of it's design and controls is outstanding. Making adjustments is very intuitive. Right now, I am very happy I did not spend as much as twice the money for some of the other displays out there. At this price point the LG 24GM79-B is probably the best value when considering a new monitor. I highly recommend this display panel.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smooth Feel, High Value Extremely high refresh rate, perfect for high FPS-demanding games. 1 ms refresh rate perfect for FPS games. Nothing special, but very high value for its price. Easily accessible screen resolution changes allows a quick change to fit your specific needs for certain video games. Slight problems with color corrections, but nothing out of reach for a common user. No errors have been encountered, and I certainly don't expect it to.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from This was not as great as a deal as I thought... Black crush apparent in dark scenes. Does work well as a dual purpose monitor (i.e. document reading or web browsing)

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Good monitor, but major flaws ok, so let me explain... I bought the monitor basically right after release, and it turned out that the first batch had some pretty big issues with flickering, ghosting and the settings menu just screwing up. Now I cant change most of the settings there. I have moving horizontal lines and incredibly crushed blacks. From what I've read, its only happened to the first few batches, I've bought this monitor about 8 months ago btw. I've been trying to gen in contact with the warranty service, but I got no answer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing but... This is my first 144hz monitor so I didn’t know how taxing it was on your graphics card so when I normally have 300+ frames on a game now I only get about have or less than that! So that’s something to think about before you purchase! Other than that a really nice product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great monitor I bought this product a few weeks ago and it still works like new. I’m planning to get another one. it is a tad too bright when no lights are on but other then that it’s prefect. you are able to adjust the screen resolution and it has a few preset settings

are there any way to fix scratches on this monitor ?

Asked by: antonjo
We regret to read that you have a scratch on your LG 24" Class Full HD Gaming Monitor (24" Diagonal), Model # 24GM79G-B. You can't repair a scratch on an LCD display, however, the screen covering might be repairable. That will depend on the scrtach since scratches can vary from being barely noticeable to visually distracting. We cannot vouch for any, but you can inquire from a computer store about a professional scratch repair kit, but if the scratch is bad , you may need to replace the screen cover. Check Amazon, Best Buy or Walmart for such products...^IFV
