Amazon is offering a significant discount on LG's 27-inch UltraGear QHD 280Hz Tandem OLED gaming monitor, the 27GX700A-B, now priced at $399.99 with free shipping. This represents a substantial reduction from its typical retail price of $850, and recent market prices have hovered closer to $600. This deal marks the lowest price point for a Tandem OLED monitor currently available.
The monitor features LG's Primary RGB Tandem OLED technology, which enhances brightness and reduces the likelihood of burn-in compared to traditional OLED panels. This advanced display technology is usually reserved for premium products, such as LG's high-end Gallery Series televisions and recent Apple iPad Pro models.
Beyond its advanced panel, the LG UltraGear GX700A boasts a 27-inch QHD (2560x1440) resolution, delivering a pixel density of 108ppi. It also features a rapid 280Hz refresh rate and is compatible with NVIDIA G-Sync. Achieving the maximum 280 frames per second might require a high-end graphics card, such as an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 or higher for older titles like Fortnite and Valorant, or at least an RTX 5070 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT for newer games.
Connectivity options include DisplayPort and HDMI ports, along with a built-in 2-port USB hub. A notable aspect of this monitor is its included 2-year warranty, which specifically covers OLED burn-in. This extended coverage and burn-in protection is uncommon, especially on monitors in this price bracket, as many competitors offer only a 1-year warranty without such provisions.
Additionally, purchasing directly from LG includes a $100 credit for Rinse dry cleaning services.
