By Brian K. Neal

LG Electronics has unveiled its latest innovation in gaming displays: the UltraGear™ OLED gaming monitor GX7 (model 27GX790A). Engineered for competitive gamers, this 27-inch QHD (2,560 x 1,440) monitor boasts an industry-leading 480Hz refresh rate and an astonishing 0.03ms Gray-to-Gray (GTG) response time. As LG’s most compact UltraGear OLED display to date, the GX7 offers unparalleled performance and an immersive gaming experience, all wrapped in a sleek, virtually borderless design.

At the heart of the GX7 is LG’s cutting-edge WOLED display technology, which uses a white OLED light source combined with advanced color filters to deliver vibrant RGB colors, exceptional brightness, and deep contrasts. This results in stunning visuals with precise motion clarity, even in the most fast-paced gaming scenarios. The monitor’s exceptional display quality has earned it the VESA DisplayHDR™ True Black 400 certification and the highest VESA ClearMR rating, affirming its capability to deliver deep blacks and rich, lifelike colors.

The GX7 is designed to elevate the gaming experience with support for NVIDIA G-SYNC® and AMD FreeSync™ Premium Pro, eliminating screen tearing and flickering for smoother gameplay. Additionally, LG’s Anti-Glare & Low Reflection (AGLR) Coating ensures clear visuals in bright environments, making it easier for players to stay focused on their game.

Equipped with DisplayPort 2.1 and HDMI 2.1, the GX7 is fully compatible with the latest gaming consoles, PCs, and next-generation GPUs slated for release in 2025. DisplayPort 2.1 offers a 67% increase in bandwidth over its predecessor, enabling support for higher resolutions and refresh rates, ensuring the monitor remains relevant as gaming technology advances.

The GX7 features a sleek L-shaped stand, which allows gamers to optimize their desk setup by placing a keyboard on the stand’s base. Its ergonomic design offers a -30 to 30-degree swivel range, ensuring customizable comfort. The monitor also includes a 4-pole headphone jack with support for DTS Headphone:X. This 3D audio technology enhances in-game sound positioning, giving players a tactical advantage in high-stakes matches.

“Designed for serious gamers, the 27GX790A combines a 480Hz refresh rate with a 27-inch OLED screen to deliver an unmatched gaming experience,” said YS Lee, Vice President and head of the IT Business Unit at LG Business Solutions Company. “Whether you’re a console enthusiast or a PC gamer, our new UltraGear OLED monitor offers the performance, compatibility, and innovation needed to stay ahead in the game.
