Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “The Only Monitor You Need…”.
So we have the brand new Ultra gear monitors in studio. Finally, from LG, and one of them is like pretty much my favorite monitor right now, you may have seen the short that I posted on it and I’ll kind of explain why it’s so special as we move through this video, but we’re actually going to talk about A few different monitors in the lineup – and maybe you can identify whichever one is best for you: we’ve got a 34 Ultra wide 800r curve. Next to it, we have the 30 9 800r Ultra wide curve. Now these are both 1440p gaming monitors, 240 HZ refresh rate. Very bright displays and there’s actually another model as well. There’S a 45 in that slots in here also, essentially, the specification is the same as these two just scaled up. I mean you can see this comparison.
We have this particular model, set up the brightness here very comparable to the MacBook Pro display when we have them teamed up in this particular fashion. Now, as far as connectivity is concerned, I should mention at this point: they have really simplified the design language. On the back of these things, we’ve got RGB lighting still in there subtle matte finish, and my favorite part about the redesign is the bass I kind of get bugged by bases that are unnecessarily wide or large, and it screws up the ergonomics or the things that You can place in front of it near it and then also important to me is how close can you place it to the wall if you’re tight for space and you’ve got your desk right up against? We have DC in external power, brick, of course, you’ve also got a USB hub built in so we have upstream and down there’s a secondary HDMI, which is nice. If you did want to have two sources, we’ve also got display port. So the only difference between these two models is not resolution. It’S just display size, so here you’re just going to decide whether or not you prefer prer 34 or if you prefer, 39 or if you prefer 45, all right now, let’s get to.
In my opinion, the main attraction – this is the new 32in Ultra gear Monitor, and it does something that no other monitor I’ve ever seen can do or has done by the way. These are all OLED displays now, which is just compared to gaming monitors of the past. Such a refreshing image to look at and so much more comparable to the monitors you may be using for productivity or enjoying. As far as a TV is concerned, I’ve put these side by side with non OLED and you’re. Just I mean it’s obvious that the image quality that amazing contrast, those really deep, blacks, it’s just a superior image, but the drawback or one of the apprehensions people would have as far as OLED is concerned, is like. How do you get a high refresh rate and that’s what they’ve tackled here? So this dual mode allows you to either have the display and in 4K resolution, which is its Peak Resolution at 240 HZ, which is already fantastic for an OLED display like I can get 240, 4K and OLED. Imagine the immersiveness the image quality, but I can hit one button this little button here, underneath the display and switch to a 1080p 480 HZ motor. So you can see dual mode activated and thankfully we have a GPU here in this case that can actually push 480 frames.
So if I open up OverWatch, I can actually achieve that and see that buttery smooth incredible movement, especially when paired with the very fast response time of 03 across the entire lineup here now that feature that I just mentioned is exclusive to this particular model and for Some of you wondering or thinking hey 32 for like a high refresh, monitor cuz those are typically 27, maybe even 24, for those competitive FPS games. Am I going to be sitting to close to it? Is it going to be too big? Well, if you can just simply push the display further away from you at 1080 480, it kind of behaves like having a 24 27 a little bit closer, and I understand the reason why you would go with 32 in for a display like this, because you’re trying To give people a 4K OLED experience for everything else they do on their screen, but if you don’t have the depth LG thought about that on this monitor, let’s say your desk is something more more like standard like around here or here, and it’s not as deep As this, this is really cool. You can actually make this display behave like it’s a smaller display. Let me show you what I’m talking about over here. I have options for Off full wide, 27 and 24.
My recommendation leave it on full wide, and this is just a feature that should be so much more widely available, because it’s it’s obvious this. This is useful. Of course, you have other gaming specific features like the ability to have CR hairs to turn on FPS counters. We have our different settings for brightness contrast and then sound now sound we’re going to listen to in a second here, but what they did surprising. The sound feels like it’s emanating from the display, rather than speaker, grills or bouncing off of anything it.
It feels very Central. I’Ve listened to the audio from a number of different monitors. Often it’s not good enough that I would even think I would use it, but here you don’t even feel like you.
You need to have extra outboard gear, it’s pretty impressive and it it does have DTS virtual X on there controls for our hexagon lighting as well. You can see we can have it cycle the RGB on the back, but we can also have it static for any color. We choose.
I’Ve currently got it in the 480 htz dual mode, mod and 10, a like you can’t pinpoint where it’s emanating from it just feels very front and center. It’S just like you don’t expect to have any kind of Bas or Clarity, and I don’t know just it’s. It’S it’s like an afterthought when they normally when they put speakers in a gaming, monitor because they’re like well the guy’s going to have a headset on anyway, which of course you could. But it’s a nice little bonus without the need for any kind of outboard gear.
In case you want to use it. Where is everyone? Is this person just chilling they’re, not even moving woo? Definitely a sniper ehy, throwing these lousy little cards y? That was my fault. That was my fault too. That was totally my fault. I just like ran up in there.
Damn dude! Oh hey! No, no man! These numbers are not looking good right now, score Z to one well, there’s a tank here! Ooh! Well back! Well, oh, give me some: why did they go up there? Why did we go up there? We defend score. Okay, one to one. I got the tank I got.
The next guy should be good right, not a lot of guys left there there. It is Victory, it’s cuz the monitor. I needed 480, it’s 2024 and this is the state-of-the-art really.
As far as gaming monitors are concerned, it has a ridiculous feature set like a spec sheet that people would only wish, for. I remember when OLED first hit TVs – and I was like. Oh, this looks amazing, and everyone said: oh, it’s not going to come all the way down to PCS and laptops and we’re, of course, we’re seeing it pop up everywhere ability to change the size of it shrinking the base for it. Even though you still have your adjustments, your ability to go up and down and then obviously the resolution to be able to get 4k when you want it with the one switch I hit the button dual mode gets activated. I go from 1080p 480 to 4K 240.
It’S the best of both it’s for a lot of people who had one gaming Monitor and then a different monitor for productivity and resolution. Now you just have one monitor that can do all of it and that’s pretty appealing so anyway. I think this one’s going to go on my desk. I feel like I’m, going to play some games on this and do some work on this and there’s not a lot of monitors that have been able to do both of those things without compromising too much in one area or the other very cool.
