The LG UltraGear 45GS95QE, the best 1440p 240Hz monitor for gaming, is known to have a sister model called the LG 45GS96QB. This new HDMI 2.1 1440p 240Hz OLED G-Sync gaming monitor is finally available on Amazon UK. Technically, it is identical but features a different stand design and additional enhancements.
The 44.5-inch LG OLED monitor Ultragear model also uses a WOLED panel with UWQHD resolution (3440 x 1440 pixels, 21:9), achieves a maximum refresh rate of 240 Hz, and is advertised with DisplayHDR True Black 400. In addition, 10-bit color depth, 275 cd/m² typical brightness, a 0.03 ms fast gray change, 98.5 percent DCI-P3, and a contrast ratio of 1,500,000:1 are promised.
The 800r curvature monitor supports HDR10, FreeSync Premium Pro, and G-Sync Compatible Adaptive Sync and includes picture-in-picture and picture-by-picture modes. Gaming functions such as a black stabilizer, an FPS display, and crosshair overlays are available via the OSD. The Auto Input Switch automatically selects the active signal input when you connect multiple devices to the monitor.
If you own a colorimeter, you can hardware calibrate the LG 45GS96QB using the included True Color Pro software. Unlike the 45GS95QE, this model features two 7-watt speakers. It also includes two HDMI 2.1 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.4, a USB hub, and a headphone output with DTS Headphone. There is also a USB-C port with 65 watts PD.
You can tilt, rotate, and adjust the height of the LG UltraGear 45GS96QB, which features an extremely curved 800 R and includes a mode for people with color vision deficiency.
