2022 has been a very busy year in the world of video games, with everything from triple-A titles to indie darlings taking immersive storytelling and gameplay to new heights. While gaming can be enjoyed on many devices, PC gaming enjoys the benefit of being able to push the technological envelope further, resulting in games looking and feeling like they never have before.
But the sights and sounds of PC gaming are only as good as the tech they’re played on, which is why gaming is best enjoyed on a best-in-class monitor – like the LG UltraWide™ Curved Gaming Monitor.Featuring a 34-inch curved display with 3440x1440 resolution and 21:9 aspect ratio, LG’s monitor is built for gaming immersion. G-SYNC Technology and a high refresh rate of 120Hz means that players won’t miss out on a frame of the action and can play with precision. Nano IPS results in colours and particle effects that leap off the screen and bring characters, landscapes, and epic battles to life.
Other features such as Sphere Lighting, which creates an indirect light source to reduce eye fatigue, and customisable Gamer, FPS, and RTS modes are designed to further enhance the overall experience. Whether you’re running, gunning, driving, or solving, LG gaming monitors bring out the best in both games and gamers.
