Revolutionary On-Device AI Processing
The standout innovation is LG’s built-in processor that performs 5K AI Upscaling without taxing your graphics card. This technology analyzes FHD or higher input signals and scales them to the monitor’s native 5K resolution instantly, delivering sharper images across games and media without requiring expensive hardware upgrades.
Additional AI features include Scene Optimization for dynamic image enhancement and AI Sound for improved audio quality—all processed directly on the monitor. This approach makes high-resolution gaming more accessible to mainstream users who can’t justify frequent GPU replacements.

Its Dual Mode operation switches between 165Hz at full 5K2K resolution and 330Hz at WFHD (2560×1080) for competitive gaming.
The 27-inch Mini LED model (27GM950B) tackles blooming issues with 2,304 local dimming zones and Zero Optical Distance technology that minimizes the gap between LEDs and the panel.
