Great Monitor For Sim racing

I added this monitor for my sim racing setup.
The curve is great and i like the extra vertical view area compared to the oddessy monitor.
2.7k is perfect to get 200fps on most GPUs
If you want this for your disk then i can see it being too large for 2.7k and it will be better to have 4k ( i have the Alienware 32 4k 240hz for my desk and it ia day and night in terms for dpi to this LG)
So yes for sim and far view distance setup this is amazing but for desk setup maybe get a smaller one.

Coming from a basic dual monitor setup, I was extremely excited about upgrading to this monitor.
Plugged it in and was truly amazed by the size and clarity of the monitor. BUT, it went downhill from there very fast.
Issues faced with the monitor:
- Could not turn on HDR and VRR at the same time
- The screen would look washed out with HDR turned on
- The screen would flicker severely while gaming with VRR turned on
LG software issues:
LG’s On Screen Control (OSC) app kept on telling me that a new firmware is available, which I thought might fix some of the issues. Unfortunately, the firmware update either kept on getting stuck at 0% or would crash midway. Tried at least a dozen times.
Customer service issues:
Chatted with 4-5 different customer service associates, none of them had a clue about how to solve the issue. To add to the frustration, each associate would have me repeat every single detail about the issue, but would not offer any solution at the end. Was told that someone from the technical team will reach, but that was 3 days ago and no one has reached out yet.
The final straw was today, when I reached out to customer service twice. Each time I requested them to review issue/conversation history to get some background context - in both instances the customer service associates disconnected the chat after a few minutes without any response .
Extremely disappointed with the product and the service offered by LG. Have purchased various LG products over the years, but this experience will make me question going down that path again in the future.
Considering all the positive reviews, I might have been unlucky and received a defective item - hope you don’t have a similar experience!

Brand response from LG Digital Customer Care

Hi, Asethi. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand your concern about the issues you’ve encountered with the LG Monitor (45GS96QB-B) model. We strive to provide high-quality products and exceptional services to ensure a smooth experience.
For the HDR and VRR conflict, this could be due to the compatibility of the graphics card and monitor settings. We recommend ensuring that the latest graphics drivers are installed and checking the settings on both the monitor and your system to enable these features properly.
For the flickering issue while gaming, ensure that the VRR setting is enabled in both the monitor’s OSD menu and the graphics card settings. If you're using HDMI, make sure it's a high-speed HDMI cable to support the VRR feature properly.
Please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and we’ll ensure your case is escalated to the right team for further assistance.
We look forward to working with you to resolve these issues. ^Juvy

This screen, man… this is another level. To be honest, the size, the response time, the colors with that OLED panel, just great. I use it for work, and I can see two excel screens as if it was two monitors, that thing is huge. I really like it, best purchase in screens.

I really like this monitor! I was pleasantly surprised to find that it includes built-in sound, which is a nice bonus. The width is impressive, but what really stands out is the height—something that can often be overlooked. For comparison, the wider 55" model doesn’t offer as much height, which might be a drawback for some users. I was playing xbox on a 48" OLED LG gaming TV prior to getting this monitor. I like them both, but I highly recommend this setup for anyone looking for a monitor. I picked it up in-store in November at a discount, which made the purchase even better.

Awesome! Was hesitant to spend this on a monitor, especially a wide screen. I love it and would not go back. Makes no sense to spend on gpu’s and cheap out on the display.
