LG 27GQ50F-B 27 Inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) Ultragear Gaming Monitor with 165Hz and 1ms Motion Blur Reduction, AMD FreeSync Premium and 3-Side Virtually Borderless Design

I just got it the moniter I was super exicted just to find out it can only go up to 119 hzs but I bought the 166 hzs verion??

The picture is really good!

Monitor arrived a day late, which was understandable because of the hurricane in my area. I had a bit of trouble setting it up, but everything you need to install it is in the package. You may want to buy a DisplayPort cable along with this because the monitor only comes with an HDMI cable. It CAN go up to 144hz, despite what another reviewer says. I was confused for a moment because certain presets only go up to 120hz. If you cant find a resolution with 144hz, then create a custom one and it will work. This monitor also comes installed with Freesync (a beauty to behold)! You can tilt the stand forward or backward, but you cant shift it up or down. Not a real big issue for me, but may be for you. All in all, a very nice monitor to have for the price.

Seems good but I’ll update in a few months when I see how it holds up

I bought this for my guest gaming rig, which my young son also uses. It replaced a $99 24 TN Dell Black Friday Special. The 144Hz creates a very sharp and impressive motion, which is as good if not better than my personal monitor, a Pixio PX7. However, the Image Quality is far worse by comparison, with the primary issue being color banding. If youve seen multiple High Refresh Rate monitors before, youll know that the image quality is all over the place with these. TN Panels are fast and generally inexpensive for what you get, but often have image quality issues, such as banding, gamma shift, poor viewing angles, etc. IPS Panels generally fix much of the Image Quality issues, but cost more and are often worse at handling motion, due to slower pixel response. VA Panels often dont handle motion perfectly, either, but give you a much higher contrast picture. But at under $200 for 24 1080p 144hz, you cant be too picky. Even expensive monitors arent perfect, and at this price point, you really have to pick your poison. In my case, Im using it as a guest/kids monitor, but the banding really kills it, IMHO. I actually ordered a Pixio PX248 Prime to compare and potentially replace this LG. Its $10 less and has the same basic specs, but its an IPS panel. Even if its a little worse at motion, the better color, lack of banding, and better viewing angles will probably make it win in my book. Ill report back once I can compare them side by side.

If you just want something relatively inexpensive to get you by this will work. This definitely isn’t a high end monitor but I needed something temporarily while traveling and this is working pretty well for that purpose

i am able to get it to run at 144hz over hdmi but it will not go to 1ms on hdmi , i think you need display port cable to get 1ms , the way i got it to run 144hz over hdmi was get all the newest drivers for my gpu or apu , then i turned on freesync on my desktop then i turned it on in my game in the amd menu , then i put the monitor menu in basic freesync and boom it runs at 144hz , but it does not get 1ms over hdmi so not sure , another point i would like to make is that i have only tested this for less than one day , so i will update this as i use it more. for me the screen is big and if it was any bigger it may not fit on my small desk , oh well i hope this info helps someone , i had a few pixels out because it was damaged in shipping but i expected as much but i cant pay 300$ for the same one at wal-mart , or the 90$ 60hz one they had that looked small , this one is big i think ,

I’ve been playing Apex Legends on PC since Season 1 on a 60hz monitor. Since day one I always noticed I had ever-so-slight input lag while in game, but always attributed it to internet connection or server-side issues or to my own PC, simply because I didn’t know any better. After a while my muscle memory would adjust to it and I began gaslighting myself, wondering if there was ever any lag in the first place. I just had to play better, duh. But even through the muscle memory, sometimes I could still feel that slight delay. Now fast forward a couple years. At this point I’ve progressed to a point in Apex where I know how good I am and how good I could/should be if I could fix this lag issue that I’ve put up with for years. I finallyyyyy decide to research input lag and refresh rates and monitor info, etc., then BOOM lightbulb. It never occurred to me for a second that my monitor could be the issue. Big oof. The moment I tried out my new monitor, Apex felt like a brand new game, and I felt like I had just stepped out of the hyperbolic time chamber, like all my chains were removed and I was finally able to play the game the way it was meant to be played, and to the fullest of my mechanical ability. NIGHT & DAY DIFFERENCE. If you play any FPS game or a game that demands super precise inputs, puhleez get a 144hz monitor. League of Legends, Runeterra, etc.,? Unnecessary. Apex Legends, Warzone, etc.? 100% yes. If you’re a sweat like me and you play to win and not just for fun (lol casuals) you can’t stay on a 60hz monitor and expect your gear to keep up with your mechanical skill and reaction time. Yes I’m being dead serious. Now go buy one.

I have been running this with a 1660 on g sync for a month now 0 problems. The picture isnt amazing, and is 4/5. For 163 dollars this monitor is insane value, and you can build an i5 1660 rig with this monitor for under 1000 dollars. Did i mention this has worked flawlessly with g sync adaptive sync.
