LG UltraGear 27GX790A-B OLED Monitor Specs And Features
The LG UltraGear 27GX790A-B is built around a fast White OLED (WOLED) panel with a 2560x1440 resolution and blistering 480Hz refresh rate. Combined with OLED's inherent near-instantaneous response time (0.03ms), this is an outstanding option for gamers who want both high-end image clarity and raw speed.
This is a FreeSync Premium Pro model with NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility to boot, meaning it is basically GPU agnostic for smooth, tear-free gaming. Other bragging rights badges include VESA's DisplayHDR True Black 400 and ClearMR 21000 certifications.
Our friends at Rtings put this panel through its paces and deemed it an "outstanding" panel for PC gaming with low input lag and excellent for console gaming as well. The only minor knocks are that it is not as bright as some other OLED displays, and for office work, the site observed some fringing around text. Otherwise, this model scored high marks in nearly every category.
MSI MAG 274QP QD-OLED Monitor Falls To All-Time Low Price
If you want to spend even less without giving up any size or on-screen real estate, then check out the 27-inch MSI MAG 274QP QD-OLED—it's on sale for $349.99 at Amazon (13% off, save $50).
That's not a huge discount, but it's already on the more affordable side in the realm of OLED. The $50 savings also knocks this monitor down to its all-time low price.
MSI's MAG 274QP features the same 2560x1440 resolution as the LG model above, but at up to 240Hz instead of 480Hz. That's still fast in its own right though.
Other features include AMD FreeSync Premium certification, NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility, dual HDMI 2.1 inputs, a single DisplayPort 1.4a input, a 3.5mm headphone-out jack, and a three-year warranty that includes specific coverage for burn-in.
