So clearly these three monitors share the same 38" panel. I've tried comparing the differences between them but LG, nor Overclockers, are consistent with specification which makes it a harder task that it needs to be. Is this a correct summary if the differences:

38GL950 - Flagship 'gaming' monitor with G-Sync module and flashy lights on the back and 175hz (overclocked)
38GN950 - 'Gaming' monitor with G-Sync compatibility (not module) and flashy lights on the backand 160hz (overclocked)
38WN95C - 'Work' monitor with G-Sync compatibility (not module) and NO flashy lights on the backand 144hz

I was tempted to buy the 38GL950 but the fan noise issues many are reporting concerned me. Does this relate to the G-Sync module and therefore a non-issue on the GN and WN version?

I've gone for WN, just waiting for OC to confirm I can collect....

My logic is that 144hz is fine (I have a 160hz Predator right now but rarely game), I don't want the noise of the G-Sync module fan, don't need the pretty lights, and prefer the design of the frame/stand which matches most of my setup.
