LG’s 27GN800 gaming monitor features Nano IPS and 144Hz refresh rate

LG is adding a new WQHD gaming monitor to its display lineup. Similar to the 27GL83A, the new 27GN800 features a high refresh-rate Nano IPS panel with fast response times but cuts costs on the stand. 

The 27-inch Nano IPS panel of the 27GN800 has a 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms G2G response time, and a 2560x1440p resolution. The 10-bit panel covers 99% of the sRGB colour spectrum and has 350 nits of typical brightness. Finally, this panel is rated for a 1000:1 contrast ratio and ships pre-calibrated.

Compatible with G-Sync and featuring FreeSync Premium, the 27GN800 offers a tearless and stutter-free gaming experience. To reduce input-lag, LG has employed its DAS (Dynamic Action Sync) technology so users can get as close to a “pro-level experience” as possible.

Other gaming-oriented features include Black Stabilizer, Crosshair, motion blur reduction technologies and HDR support. Additionally, it also uses flicker-free technology to reduce the user's eye strain and features a reader mode to reduce blue light.

This monitor has 2x HDMI ports, a DisplayPort, and an audio-out 3.5mm jack. The included stand only allows the users to tilt the monitor, but the VESA 100x100mm support allows users to mount a third-party arm bracket.

Pricing and availability details have not been shared yet but this monitor should hit retail before the end of the year.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
