OLED displays are becoming the top choice for gaming screens due to their fast response times, deep black contrast, and vibrant colors. LG’s UltraGear 45GX900A-B monitor is currently at its lowest price in thirty days, costing $884.99. This represents a significant drop from its original launch price of $1699.99, offering nearly a 50% savings. The article notes that prices for OLED gaming monitors have decreased over the last couple of years as technology adoption grows and concerns about burn-in fade.
The monitor features an 800R curved screen with WQHD resolution (3440 x 1440 pixels) and a 240Hz refresh rate. Its response time is listed as 0.03ms, which the text describes as making movement incredibly smooth. It offers a contrast ratio of 1,500,000:1 for true blacks, supports HDR400 certification, and reaches up to 1300 nits of peak brightness. The panel also covers 98.5% of DCI-P3 color space and is compatible with AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync for tear-free visuals.
Stewart Bendle, a deals writer at Tom’s Hardware, highlights the monitor’s versatility for console gamers on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 as well. The device includes an HDMI 2.1 port with variable refresh rate support, a DisplayPort 1.4 connection, and USB Type-C with 65W power delivery. Bendle emphasizes his focus on finding the best price-to-performance ratio in hardware builds.
