LG Electronics announced the launch of the UltraGear evo 27GM950B gaming monitor, equipped with Hyper Mini LED technology and native 5K resolution. The model hits the market in April with a maximum brightness of 1,250 nits, VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification and artificial intelligence features for automatic image optimization in real time. The announcement marks the manufacturer’s entry into a high-performance segment, combining cinematic visual quality with competitive responsiveness for demanding players.
Tecnologia Hyper Mini LED eliminates visual artifacts
The monitor has 2,304 local dimming zones, a density 1.5 times higher than conventional Mini LED models. Essa advanced architecture provides precise light control and effective elimination of the halo effect, a common problem in high-resolution displays with high contrast. The equipment received anti-blooming certification from TÜV Rheinland, validating its ability to minimize visual artifacts in scenes with intense explosions and starry skies.
The reduced design between panel and backlight suppresses light leakage around the edges. In AAA titles with demanding graphics, the technology allows for clear separation between brightness and deep blacks, leaving critical details more visible in shooters and action games. Visual immersion remains intact even during intense moments of gameplay, offering a competitive advantage without compromising the cinematic experience.
Artificial Inteligência enhances content without latency
UltraGear evo integrates AI upscaling for 5K, which upscales on-screen content to native resolution without requiring a hardware upgrade or additional GPU processing. The solution operates without extra latency, preserving the responsiveness expected in competitive games. Otimização AI scene and AI sound complement the experience, delivering image and audio automatically balanced according to the type of game loaded.
LG’s artificial intelligence adapts the display to each title in real time. Cinematic Conteúdo gains improved visual refinement, while competitive titles maintain minimal latency and motion clarity. Users do not need to manually adjust image settings — the system does this automatically during gameplay.
Dual Modo offers flexibility between resolution and refresh rate
The monitor offers two distinct operating modes to meet different needs:
- 5K at 165 Hz for visually impactful, cinematic gaming
- QHD (2560 x 1440) at 330 Hz for competitive titles and esports
- Tempo 1 ms GtG response in both modes
- Compatibilidade with NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync Premium
- Eliminação tearing and flickering in both configurations
Essa duality simultaneously serves gamers who prioritize visual fidelity and those seeking maximum refresh rate. The transition between modes is instantaneous, allowing quick adaptation depending on the type of game loaded. Jogadores can switch between cinematic and competitive experience without restarting the monitor.
Advanced Conectividade for multiple devices
The 27GM950B includes DisplayPort 2.1 (UHBR20) and USB-C port with 90W Power Delivery. Esses high-bandwidth connectors enable fast data transfer and laptop power through a single cable. Usuários switches between devices without additional configuration, making it easy to use with multiple computers and consoles on a single monitor.
Advanced connectivity also positions the model as a tool for content creators and professionals. 5K sharpness and color accuracy meet demanding visual tasks, expanding its scope beyond gaming to video editing, graphic design, and audiovisual production. The versatility makes the equipment suitable for both gamers and content professionals.
