If you’re in the market for a gaming monitor, get ready to feast your eyes on a whole new range of OLED gaming monitors arriving at PB Tech. While the market is flushed with IPS, VA, and TN monitors, OLED monitors blow them all away when it comes to raw image quality. With almost endless black levels and the ability to switch on and off individual LEDs, OLEDs have the best contrast ratio and dynamic range. An almost instantaneous response time also means ghosting is a thing of the past. The result of all of this? An immersive gaming experience with clearer, faster, and smoother visuals.
LG 48" UltraGear 48GQ900 4K Gaming Monitor
The first to land is the new LG 48” UltraGear 48GQ900-B 4K Gaming Monitor – LGs first UltraGear gaming monitor with an OLED panel. LG is a global leader in OLED technology so you can bet they’ve done it well; in fact, this monitor is a Red Dot and iF Design Award-winning product. This self-emissive 4K display features a 120Hz (overclockable to 138Hz) refresh rate and a 0.1 millisecond Grey-to-Grey (GTG) response time that delivers seamless performance at lightning speed - critical when playing first-person shooter games. It is also compatible with NVIDIA® G-Sync®, along with AMD FreeSynch™ Premium technology which delivers seamless, fluid movement in high-resolution and fast-paced games.
“With the continued growth of the Australian gaming industry, the needs of gamers have also evolved. To ensure they have the technology needed to support next-generation gaming experiences, we have taken our leadership in OLED technology and combined it with our feature rich UltraGear monitor range. The result is a PC gaming product that delivers the deeply immersive experience gamers desire from their favourite games”, said Brad Reed, Head of B2B Marketing (Solutions for Business) at LG Electronics Australia.
The UltraGear 48GQ900 gets a big tick in terms of performance but it also offers an incredible visual performance for your games. With precise pixel-level controls and 99% DCI-P3 colour space, the monitor serves up perfect blacks, incredibly realistic colours, and infinite contrast to deliver an immersive viewing experience. Moreover, it’s also equipped with an anti-glare low reflection (AGLR) coating, reducing visual distractions so you can focus your attention entirely on the gameplay. There’s also a bunch of modes and features you can switch on and off to further enhance your experience. These include Black Stabiliser Mode (for greater visibility during darker scenes), Crosshair (provides enhanced accuracy to help you aim for the target in first-person shooter games), and Dynamic Action Sync Mode.
This monitor is superb for both PC gaming as well as current-generation console gaming. You’ll get variable refresh rates up to 120Hz via HDMI 2.1, and there is also DisplayPort connectivity options for PC users.
“LG prides itself on delivering innovative products that enhance the user experience and our latest launch is no exception. Fast response time, high contrast ratio and both DisplayPort and HDMI 2.1 connectivity options will ensure avid gamers have the ultimate experience, no matter their PC game of choice.”
