That said, the monitor is not really about sheer gaming performance. The True Color Pro settings, delivers "professional-grade picture quality" and "color reproduction accuracy unmatched in the industry," LG says. Depending on the price, it will be a tempting option for graphics artists, video editors and film post-production color-grading experts.

LG also has the 34UC99, a 34-inch model with AMD FreeSync tech that eliminators judder and tearing, 1ms refresh times, dynamic action sync, and other gaming-oriented features. We'll get a better look at both models in January, and hopefully learn the prices -- if it's low enough, the 32-inch model could sway a lot of folks looking for accurate color reproduction.
