LG details the UltraFine 32U990A – world’s first 6K Thunderbolt 5 monitor

It looks like the wait for LG's next-generation professional display is almost over. The LG UltraFine 32U990A, which was first announced back at CES, is now rumoured to be launching in September. This monitor is set to be the world's first 6K display to feature Thunderbolt 5 connectivity, making it highly anticipated for creative professionals, especially those in the Mac ecosystem.

As shared by TFT Central, the 32U990A is a 32-inch Nano IPS Black panel, boasting a 6K resolution (6,144 x 3,456). The display is specifically designed for colour-critical work, with claimed coverage of 99.5% of the Adobe RGB and 98% of the DCI-P3 colour gamuts. It's also VESA DisplayHDR 600 certified, with a typical SDR brightness of 450 nits, and supports hardware calibration.

The Thunderbolt 5 connection offers a single-cable solution, delivering a full 6K 60Hz video signal, high-speed data transfer, and up to 96W of power delivery. Standard HDMI and DisplayPort connections will also be included for wider compatibility. The monitor is housed in a four-sided, borderless chassis with a circular stand. The stand itself is fully ergonomic, offering height, tilt, and swivel adjustments, as well as the ability to pivot 90º into a vertical orientation.

Following its win of multiple design and innovation awards earlier this year, the LG UltraFine 32U990A is rumoured to be released in September.

KitGuru says: It might not be the most suitable monitor for gaming, but a 6K image in a 32-inch display should provide quite the visual experience.

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.
