A: Hi! The difference between the 2 is going to be that this is designed to be a monitor. What that means is, it will auto-wake and auto-sleep for you as your computer does. This monitor also has an "overclock" mode that can boost it to 138hz which will be slightly better then the 120hz that the LG is capable of. The difference I don't think is noticeably huge but if you're an intense gamer who plays competitively you might notice it. From what I researched the burn in protection is pretty close to the same. I've owned an OLED tv for about 5 or 6 years now and burn in really isn't as big of an issue as people think it is as long as you're being relatively careful with not keeping static images on the screen for a super long time.
Q: Can this monitor be mounted on the wall?
A: Yes, the ASUS - ROG Swift PG42UQ monitor supports VESA Wall Mounting at 300x300mm.
Q: IPS or OLED?
A: This model comes with an OLED display.
A: Yes its specifically designed for PC use. Its your traditional monitor, but big with super good quality and features.
Q: Is this "monitor" Full Glossy?
A: No its matty finished
A: The dimensions of the stand for this monitor are: 36.70" x 24.07" x 10.06".
Q: What is the actual viewable width & height?
A: The monitor's actual viewable width & height is 919.68mm x 517.32mm.
Q: Can this monitor be mounted on an arm mount?
A: It depends on the mount that you have. The normal sized mounts for monitors are too small but there are extension brackets that you can buy for it to work.
