QuestionWhat specs are different on this unit, the 27GN800-B and the 27GN850-B? Besides the size of the stand and tilt, are there any technical or performance differences between the 2 monitors?
Asked 5 years ago by Shegs.
- Answer Apparently, you'll also miss out on the NANO-IPS technology which you could do a quick google search of it's impact. I went ahead with the GN800 as it's pretty similar to me and a $100 cheaper. The stand height is okay too, depending on your table and it does tilt ok. I'm 5"8.

QuestionIs this monitor compatible with LG Ergo Stand?
Asked 4 years ago by MRT51.
- Answer Monitor 27GN800-B does not have an alternate Ergo Stand. Not sure that one can be attached to this monitor with the mounting plate. This monitor meets the specifications for the wall mount plate or other compatible devices. The wall mount plate is sold separately. Use the wall mounting bracket and screws that conform to VESA standards, 100 x 100 mm.

QuestionMonitor keeps killing usbc HDMI cables. Port at monitor gets very hot. Works for a few days then nothing. Do I need different cable or connection? Only using for work, no gaming or high graphics. Lenovo laptop straight into monitor.
Asked 9 months ago by FriedCable.
- Answer Hello there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that your LG UltraGear Gaming Monitor (27GN800-B) is having issues with HDMI cables and the port getting hot. Your feedback is important, and we'd like to assist you further. A hot HDMI port can sometimes indicate an issue with the cable or the connection itself. For a troubleshooting step, please try a different high-quality HDMI 2.0 cable, if you haven't already. Ensure it's fully seated in both the monitor and your Lenovo laptop. Also, try connecting the monitor using the DisplayPort if your laptop has one, as this can sometimes offer a more stable connection, especially for higher resolutions and refresh rates. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-ultragear-27-ips-qhd-144hz-1ms-g-sync-compatible-gaming-monitor-with-hdr-hdmi-displayport-black/6437476.p?skuId=6437476 Please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to explore possible solutions.

QuestionDoes a display port to HDMI cord work for this monitor to PC, or an adapter for the displayport side?
Asked 1 year ago by CourtneyM.
- Answer Hello there. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your situation regarding connecting your PC to the LG 27GN800-B. This monitor comes equipped with both DisplayPort and HDMI inputs. For optimal performance—especially to fully benefit from the 144Hz refresh rate and 2560 x 1440 resolution—it is generally best to use the native DisplayPort connection if your PC supports it. If your PC only has an HDMI output, using a high-quality adapter to convert HDMI to DisplayPort is an option. However, please ensure that the adapter or cord you choose supports the full resolution and refresh rate of your monitor. As a troubleshooting step, we recommend testing the connection with your current adapter setup and verifying that the display settings on your PC are configured to match the monitor's capabilities. https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-27gn800-b-gaming-monitor#pdp_specs For further personalized guidance or if you encounter any issues, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to explore possible solutions with you.

QuestionCan the Elgato HD60 X work with this monitor? I play on a Ps5 slim and trying to stream with a capture card but my current monitor doesn’t support it because its a 1080p.
Asked 1 year ago by Andy.
- Answer Hi there, Andy. Thanks for reaching out! The LG 27GN800-B gaming monitor has a 2560 x 1440 (QHD) resolution and supports 144Hz refresh rate, making it a great choice for gaming. The Elgato HD60 X capture card supports 1440p passthrough at 120Hz, so it should work with this monitor when connected to your PS5 Slim. However, since the HD60 X does not support native 4K downscaling to 1440p, you may need to manually adjust your PS5’s resolution settings to 1440p for the best experience. https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-27gn800-b-gaming-monitor#pdp_specs For optimal performance, ensure that your PS5 is set to 1440p output and that your Elgato software is configured correctly for passthrough. If you run into any issues, feel free to reach out to us via private message on @LGUSSupport, and we'd be happy to assist further. Happy gaming! —Renzo

QuestionDoes this black panel need to come off to install my VESA mount? I can’t figure out how to remove it if it is. Help!
Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hi there! Thank you for reaching out to us. We understand your situation and are happy to help you with your VESA mount installation for the LG 27GN800-B monitor. To install your VESA mount, the black panel on the back of the monitor does need to be removed. You can remove it by carefully pressing the plastic tabs on the side of the panel to release it. Once the panel is removed, you will have access to the VESA mount holes that are spaced at 100 x 100 mm, which is compatible with your mount. https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-27gn800-b-gaming-monitor#pdp_specs If you encounter any difficulty, please don't hesitate to send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and we’d be more than happy to assist you further.
