Gaming enthusiasts in the United States can now elevate their gaming setup with the latest release from LG: the UltraGear OLED 45GS96QB monitor, now available after its initial presentation prior to CES 2024. This brand-new gaming monitor not only carries over the strong performance benchmarks of its predecessor but also offers additional enhancements to cater to a modern gamer’s needs.
Following the legacy of the previous model, the UltraGear OLED 45GR95QE (currently retailing at $1,499), the UltraGear OLED 45GS96QB delivers a competitive edge in the gaming universe. Notably, the UltraGear OLED 45GS96QB retains the impressive specs of a 44.5-inch 800R curved panel, offering gamers crisp and fluid visuals with a resolution of 3,440 x 1,440 pixels, a refresh rate of 240 Hz, and a brightness of 275 nits, also boasting a VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification.
Gamers can expect seamless gameplay thanks to a remarkable 0.03 ms GtG response time, as well as compatibility with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-SYNC technologies, which prevent screen tearing. Additionally, the monitor covers 98.5% of the DCI-P3 color space, ensuring that the games look vivid and lifelike.
However, it’s the enhancements that truly set the UltraGear OLED 45GS96QB apart from its forerunner. This model incorporates 7W stereo speakers, eliminating the necessity for separate audio equipment and offering an all-inclusive, high-fidelity gaming experience. It also introduces a versatile USB Type-C port, which supports video and USB connectivity using a single cable and can charge connected devices with up to 65W power delivery.
The UltraGear OLED 45GS96QB comes with a price tag of $1,699.99 for those eager to get their hands on the latest technology. While the US market is the first to witness its launch, details regarding the pricing and availability of this advanced gaming monitor for other markets are yet to be revealed by LG.
