DisplayPort 2.1 supports three UHBR rates: UHBR10 (40Gbps): Suitable for mainstream 4K/120Hz gaming and general multitasking. UHBR13.5 (54Gbps): Supports 8K/60Hz with Display Stream Compression (DSC), ideal for premium home theaters or productivity. UHBR20 (80Gbps): Enables uncompressed 8K/120Hz or dual 4K/144Hz setups, suitable for high-end gaming and professional workflows.

This bandwidth allows for high-resolution and high-refresh-rate gaming without the need for Display Stream Compression (DSC), but does not mean it's not a "true" DisplayPort 2.1 port. It just supports a different UHBR rate...^Ivan.

    Great Monitor for the Price

    I picked up this monitor on sale, and for the price, it’s an absolute powerhouse. The 480 Hz refresh rate paired with a 0.03 ms response time delivers motion clarity that’s on another level—fast-paced games look razor sharp even in hectic moments. The OLED panel produces deep blacks, vibrant colors, and stunning contrast, so the visuals in every game feel incredibly immersive. Performance-wise, it’s a dream for competitive gaming, and even cinematic titles benefit from the HDR and color accuracy. The build quality feels premium, and G-SYNC/FreeSync compatibility ensures smooth gameplay across different GPUs. It’s not perfect—brightness isn’t the highest compared to some newer OLEDs, and there are no built-in speakers. Also, to take full advantage of 480 Hz, you’ll need a pretty powerful PC. But if you can grab it at a discount, it’s one of the best high-refresh OLED monitors for the money. I was playing the Battlefield 6 beta with this monitor and it looks great and with the high FPS it was a truly different experience compared to typical IPS monitors. Other games look great Witcher 3 looks great as well. So many games look great. Highly recommend picking up this monitor; however, if you can wait for it to be on sale that would be even better.

    This honestly feels like cheating…

    Going from an ASUS 1080p 180Hz TN-display, to an LG 2K 144Hz IPS-display, to this MONSTER!? It honestly feels like cheating… What ghosting and frame variance issues of IPS-displays? Why crave and reminisce about the smoothness, albeit horrible color accuracy, of TN-displays? Why compromise on beautiful color accuracy for speed? This monitor is the complete and OP package. For those that claim they can’t see the difference of higher refresh rate monitors!? Just drag the mouse around on the Desktop with this BEAST…that will be all of the proof you need. Having this monster side-by-side to my previously purchased LG monitor makes it even more painfully obvious how important your gaming monitor is to unlock your full gaming potential. Most setups have limited games they can push at 500+ FPS @ QHD/2K, but you won’t have to worry about your monitor being a bottle neck for a LONG while. After drooling from all of the LG OLED HDR videos on YouTube - this monitor has breathed new life into all of my games, videos, and productivity. Regardless if they are retro, single-player, or online competitive games - everything is SO much better on this monitor. FYI - don’t freak out if the color “grey” looks wonky at first. Be sure to connect the included high-speed USB-C cable and install LG’s software for some calibrations and pixel cleaning to significantly improve color accuracy. No 3rd-party calibration hardware needed (even though they are also supported by LG’s app). Why are you still reading this? Come join the other side. My only regret is that I took far too long to pull the trigger, and that I have to save up a bit and wait to buy another, lol…

    Don't Think Twice - Get this Monitor!

    This monitor is a beast! Build quality and aesthetics are unbeatable; it's gorgeous. Controls are easy to use, and if you use the stand, it has a thoughtfully designed wire management port, which cleans things up. On performance, I can only describe the usage from a productivity standpoint, as I sadly haven't had the chance to game on it yet. The colors are exceptional, everything you expect from a top-tier OLED monitor. The brightness and max-brightness are fantastic, which is typically an issue with OLEDs. I've used this monitor for the past 4 months at a school where I primarily coded with it, wrote papers, and did a lot of reading. I wouldn't trade this for anything; it's really been nothing but amazing each time I use it.
