The new display has been designed with gamers in mind.
LG has announced the launch of its newest monitor. The 34UC89G 34-inch 21:9 curved UltraWide gaming monitor is now available for a suggested retail price of $1,000 from several retailers, including Newegg, Amazon, Fry's Electronics, B&H, and Beach Camera.
"LG took every consideration in designing this display for one purpose and one purpose only, and that was to create the ultimate gaming monitor," said David VanderWaal, vice president of marketing, LG Electronics USA. "LG is committed to providing the latest in cutting-edge monitor technology and whether you're a professional or a casual gamer, this monitor has the features necessary to give you an edge over the competition."
The 34UC89G features an UltraWide IPS panel with a 21:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 2560 x 1080 pixels. Likewise, the display offers a widened color gamut that offers over 99% of the sRGB color space with wide viewing angles and shorter input lag. In addition, the monitor uses NVIDIA G-Sync gaming display technology which dynamically matches the 144Hz (overclockable to 166Hz) refresh rate of the screen to the frame rate output of the GPU, helping to eliminate tearing while reducing stutter and input lag. Finally, different display modes to enhance certain gameplay types are provided as well, including Black Stabilizer, Dynamic Action Sync, and Crosshair.
