How do I enable HDR? I went to display settings and toggle ON the HDR for all. And then I went into a youtube HDR video and it does not show under the "gear" Settings Quality the "HDR" tag after the 4k resolution.

Make sure you also have "Steam HDR Video" enabled as well in the Windows HD Color settings, that might be what you are missing. I have my settings attached in a picture and I get the 4K HDR videos on Youtube.

Accessing Settings > Game Mode then HDR Effect in the settings menu for the LG 27'' UltraGear 4K UHD Nano IPS 1ms 144Hz G-Sync Compatible Gaming Monitor, Model # 27GN950-B as you have mentioned is how you enable HDR for the monitor. However, HDR content may not display correctly depending on Windows 10 OS settings, please check HDR on/off settings in Windows. You will need to contact Google about the settings for the YouTube HDR Video not showing the "gear" Settings Quality the "HDR" tag after the 4k resolution. That is not controlled by the monitor. You also need to check that the Graphics Card in your PC/Laptop also supports HDR...^IFV
