A:AnswerHi there, Londadee. Thank you for reaching out with your questions about the LG 27GS50FX-B Gaming Monitor. We understand how important it is to know the features and adjustability of your monitor.
The LG 27GS50FX-B supports OnScreen Control (OSC) software, which allows you to split the screen into multiple sections for multitasking. You can download the OnScreen Control software from the LG support website to take advantage of this feature.
Regarding the monitor stand, it offers tilt adjustment, but it does not support height adjustment. However, the monitor is VESA-compatible (100 x 100 mm), so you can mount it on a stand or arm with height adjustability if needed.

A:AnswerHi there, JohnWJ. We understand your inquiry about FreeSync compatibility on your UltraGear 27GS50FX-B.AUSQ. FreeSync is LG’s implementation of AMD Adaptive Sync, so it’s designed to work seamlessly with AMD Radeon graphics cards. However, many NVIDIA GeForce GPUs released in recent years also support Adaptive Sync under their “G-SYNC Compatible” program when connected via DisplayPort. To take advantage of this:
Connection & Settings:
Use a high-quality DisplayPort cable and connect your GPU to the monitor’s DisplayPort input.
In the monitor’s On-Screen Display (OSD), ensure FreeSync (Adaptive Sync) is enabled.
For AMD GPUs, enable FreeSync in Radeon Settings.
For NVIDIA GPUs, open NVIDIA Control Panel > Display > Set up G-SYNC, and enable G-SYNC Compatible for your monitor.
Check Compatibility:
For NVIDIA cards, refer to NVIDIA’s list of validated G-SYNC Compatible monitors and ensure your graphics driver is up to date. While many GeForce cards can work in Adaptive Sync mode, performance may vary by GPU model and driver version.
If you’re using an Intel GPU, Adaptive Sync support depends on the specific Intel graphics generation and driver—please check Intel’s documentation for Adaptive Sync support on your GPU.
Firmware & Driver Updates:
Make sure your monitor firmware is up to date (refer to the LG support site for any available updates).
Keep your GPU drivers updated to the latest version to ensure the best Adaptive Sync compatibility and performance.
Troubleshooting Tip:
After enabling the settings, you should see smoother frame rates and reduced tearing when your GPU’s framerate falls within the monitor’s supported refresh range (e.g., 48–180Hz for this model). If the option doesn’t appear or doesn’t work as expected, double-check connections, confirm settings in both monitor OSD and GPU driver software, and try a different DisplayPort cable if needed.

A:AnswerHi there! Thank you for reaching out about the LG UltraGear 27” VA FHD 180Hz Gaming Monitor (27GS50FX-B.AUSQ). Yes, this monitor is compatible with the PS5!

A:AnswerHi there, thank you for your question about the LG 27GS50FX-B.AUSQ gaming monitor. While the monitor has a 178-degree vertical viewing angle, its stand does not support pivot adjustment to rotate the screen vertically. However, you can use a compatible VESA mount (100 x 100 mm) to set it up in a vertical orientation if desired.
