Q: Is this a good monitor for gaming?
A: It is an excellent monitor, 75 hz refresh rate makes motion much faster, 5ms input lag leaves something to be desired, but the IPS panel is worth it. It is almost too wide for gaming, there is a lot of screen space for your eyes to cover. It is great for co-op games in steam. But otherwise it's going to come to personal preference. I actually love it and primarily use it for gaming, it just takes some getting used to.
Q: does it work with Mac Pro connect via HDMI?
A: It might be. I have a MacBook Pro M1 and I connect it to Monitor without any issue. I also purchased USB-C to HDMI cable since MacBook Pro M1 has 2 thunderbolt port.
A: Hi Brad. The height for the panel on the LG 29'' Class 21:9 UltraWide FHD IPS Monitor with HDR10 (29'' Diagonal), Model # 29WL500-B that includes the bezels is listed at 12.5" and the bezels around the monitor are 1 cm thick (i.e. o.394") so if you subtract 0.788" (i.e top bezel and bottom bezel added up) from the listed height, the viewing screen will have a height of 11.712"...^IFV
Q: Can you open multiple docs with enough space to see all at once?
A: Yes. Two documents side by side works best. Could squeeze 3 but gets hard to read. I bought two monitors and use them side by side - 2 docs, Outlook, and cascaded directories all open and readable at the same time.
Q: Is this OK to connect with new M-1 Mac Mini 2021?
A: This is a Plug and Play monitor and doesn't require drivers. If you are in need of assistance with using a monitor, give our computer specialists a call at 800-243-0000. ^Daphane
Q: does this monitor have built in speakers
A: The monitor does not have built-in speakers. ^Daphane
