Great 4K PC Monitor

By RaceGuy

I bought this LG Ultra HD 4K monitor to take full advantage of the higher-end NVIDIA GTX 1070 graphics card in my new Dell XPS desktop computer which I use for photo and video editing and viewing. The GTX 1070 card DisplayPort outputs video at a resolution of 3840X2160 at 60Hz and that is the setting I use for all of my computer work with my LG Ultra-4K monitor. At that Ultra-4K resolution level the LG 27UD58-B has outstanding color, very quick screen performance, and has never shown the le...ast indication of any negative viewing or performance issues with any large format photos or high-speed videos during my editing, rendering, or viewing. And all photos and videos -- no matter the source, including those streamed from the Internet -- are displayed in wonderful full Ultra-4K format on the LG monitor. Setup of the monitor with my PC was pure plug-and-play, as all I had to do for the initial install was connect the monitor DisplayPort cable (the monitor comes with both HDMI and DisplayPort connecting cables) to my NVIDIA GTX 1070 card and fire-up the PC. I use the NVIDIA card device drivers because they are frequently and automatically updated by NVIDIA, but the LG driver I initially used also worked well. I have found the monitor settings easy to modify and optimize via the included software which can be downloaded and accessed via the PC or accessed directly using the menu toggle button on the bottom front of the monitor. All in all, I believe this monitor is an excellent and reliable product that I can recommend without hesitation for use as a desktop PC Ultra-4K monitor.
