The price of LG’s UltraGear 27GX700A-B 1440p gaming monitor that came out last August has dropped to nearly its best price yet. You can grab it at Amazon for $484.99 or at LG for $499.99 (originally $599.99). That’s a great deal considering this is one of LG’s Primary RGB Tandem panels built with fourth-generation WOLED tech that delivers higher brightness and punchier contrast than its predecessors, rivaling QD-OLED.

This model could satisfy gamers with PCs built to deliver smooth 1440p gameplay. It features a 280Hz refresh rate, twin HDMI 2.1 and one DisplayPort 1.4 jack, a near-instant .03-millisecond response time, not to mention a thin design. The monitor also has some USB-A ports for connecting accessories, plus a headphone jack for private listening.

The 27GX700A-B supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and is Nvidia G-Sync-compatible, meaning it supports variable refresh rates and can keep the image running smoothly even with variations in frame rate. We haven’t tested this model, but reviews site Rtings does say it has “distracting VRR flicker,” though that likely depends on the game.

While costs have risen in recent months on computer components like RAM and storage, it’s been delightful to watch prices go in the opposite direction for OLED gaming monitors. Some people may prefer to spend less on fast, feature-packed IPS and VA panels, but it’s nice that there are more opportunities to get cutting-edge panel tech for your gaming PC or console.
