- A: AnswerHDR “standard” is 400 nits but simply not bright enough. VESA Display HDR 600 and up is better but we’re talking edge lit IPS panels here so temper expectations.

- A: AnswerYeah, the PS5 can output 120hz to this monitor, but only with certain games. It’s up to the game developers to give the games the 120hz support, but the PS5 is totally capable of outputting 120hz at 1440p to this monitor. Borderlands 3 and Warzone run very well, there’s some other games that support it that I haven’t tried yet.

One of the best 1440p monitors out
I've been using this monitor as my main in a 2 monitor set up for over a year because of its picture quality, the IPS nanocell really makes for a much deeper color & blacks than my Acer predator w 240hz. Once you go 1440p you'll never go back! only caution I would throw with this monitor is that the stand is extremely bulky so you'll need a mount if you play keyboard and mouse

Great monitor!
It’s great monitor for the price. I use mine for work and for playing PS5 games. Has amazing refresh rate, and HDR which really makes a difference in the video quality. A con which I wish that this monitor did have is a USB C port, but there aren’t many monitors in the market at this time with it anyway.

All I can say is WOW !!!!!!!!!!
Now I know why they can't keep this monitor in stock. Out of the box calibration is great. If you purchase this monitor do yourself a favor and go to RTing.com use this link and under ( post calibration ) you'll see a download for their ICC profile calibration. There are videos all over Youtube how to do this and it's very simple to do. https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/lg/27gp83b-b. It's a great base to start from. After re calibrating the monitor with the ICC profile calibration and a little personal tweaking for personal preference this monitor it looks absolutely amazing. Some reviews I've read mention backlight bleed through issues. Either I got extremely lucky or LG fixed the issue because I have no noticeable bleed through issues at all. No dead pixels, uniform black throughout the screen. Monitor manufactured 4/21. HDMI limits you to 144 Hz. refresh rate which is more than sufficient. I have a Razer 14 with the RTX 3080 so unfortunately I'm limited to a single HDMI out. I highly modify and play GTA V. mostly and this monitor had definitely made it all the more immersive. I ordered this monitor a while back and had a time of shipping issue so I cancelled it. I'm glad I gave it a second try and this time no problems with shipping. I originally purchased this monitor at $449.99 and of course a day after the price dropped to $399.99. Best buy honored their Price Match Guarantee and refunded me the difference. My experience with Best Buy though out the years has always been excellent and I can't actually think of buying anywhere else unless it's for something they don't carry in stock.
