World’s First 5K G-SYNC Pulsar Monitor
AGON by AOC unveiled the AGP327KG, a 31.5-inch, 5120×2880 display running natively at 144Hz — the first 5K monitor to carry NVIDIA’s G-SYNC Pulsar technology. Where earlier Pulsar displays topped out at 27 inches and 1440p, this model pairs the same variable frequency backlight pulsing (which sharpens motion clarity to feel like a much higher refresh rate) with a larger, sharper panel for more immersive gaming.

LG’s 25G590B-B is a particularly notable entry — the company is calling it the world’s first native 1000Hz 1080p display, with pre-orders live and US shipping starting in early September.
G-SYNC Pulsar Controls Land in the NVIDIA App
Owners of existing G-SYNC Pulsar monitors previously had to adjust settings through each display’s on-screen menu. That’s changing — Pulsar controls are now available directly through the NVIDIA app’s Early Access beta, with a full release following in September.

RTX Remix Brings Two Classic Games Back With Path Tracing
NVIDIA’s community modding platform RTX Remix got two big updates: a new Painkiller RTX mod release, and the reveal of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind RTX, a fan-made path-traced overhaul of the 2002 classic. Both mods now support DLSS 4.5 Ray Reconstruction and Multi Frame Generation, letting modders apply NVIDIA’s latest image quality tech to decades-old titles. Full technical details on all these announcements are available via NVIDIA’s official GeForce news page.
Why This Matters
Between record-breaking monitor refresh rates, a genuinely expanded cloud gaming footprint, and classic titles getting modern path-traced makeovers, NVIDIA is showing its RTX ecosystem is growing on every front simultaneously — not just chasing bigger benchmark numbers on new GPUs. Keep following our PC gaming coverage section as more of these products roll out through the rest of 2026.
