27GL850G-B / 38GL950G-B When and how much?

[PaulW]

Last Bought a monitor in 2009 from OCUK for £356.51....That is 10 years ago #"*%!

My trusty NEC is still going but is showing its age!

Thats good value NEC! at £35 a year.

Anyway i want 2x / 3x 27GL850G-B or one 38GL950G-B and i simply want to know WHEN?
and HOW MUCH?

My brain says no, my heart says yes! LG and @Daniel - LG needs to say its available for my wallet to feel pain!

Thank you

27GL850G I believe is next 1-2 months but I will confirm

38GL950G might end up being later in the year by the looks of things!

Will 27GL850G have hdr?

unclear at the moment, I haven't had any prelim factory spec sheets through yet so I cannot confirm anything at this time

The market is screaming out for a quality 1440p 144fps panel so hopefully the 27” with lgs new panel is good

I would say that is the Gigabyte AD27, I’ve personally got the Acer XV272UP

 

[PaulW]

that AD27 looks pretty tasty especially the tiny bevel size. The 27GL850G-B says virtually border less but i've seen CES videos and it does not looking like the website image it looks bigger in reality. i don't think LG would win many brownie point by having a edge that looks different from what is displayed on there website.

The stand on the AD27 looks hideous though. someone a gigabyte had a car crash moment. can it be versa mounted?

I don't expect to see this till July or August

I managed to find out from an LG product specialist that they're planning to release the 27GL850G in the last week of July and pre-orders will start July 1st. Sounds like they'll have an update on the website soon too, I assume that's when we'll find out the price.

 

[ussjtrunks]

It’s with the pg 279q or this for me all depends on reviews.

Seems like a freesync version of the 27GL850G was just confirmed by nvidia: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforc...timate-mini-led-hdr-4k-144hz-gaming-monitors/

@Daniel - LG

Will this be like the other LG monitors where there has been both a freesync and g-sync version?

 

[VitaminD3]

Well, specs have changed by the looks of things; means only 48-144hz VRR range and no variable overdrive then.

@Daniel - LG
Sorry for pinging you again, but does this mean there will be no G-SYNC version at all then?

How bad are ultra-thin bezels for gaming? My only experience of a ultra-thin bezel was very briefly at work for work and it seemed very distracting over having a decent sized bezel. I found the statement on the website "Jump into your favorite games without the distraction of unsightly borders." really odd as isn't a thin bezel a negative for a single gaming monitor? Is it something you get used to? The thick black borders are hardly unsightly and serve a use in blending out distracting backgrounds and movements behind the screen.

Glad to see HDR confirmed but the bezel being so thin is putting me off.
