A steep discount has brought LG's 45-inch UltraGear OLED gaming monitor down to $884.99, its lowest price in at least a month. That represents a 48% saving from the original $1,699.99 launch price. The deal reflects a broader trend of OLED gaming monitors becoming more affordable as the technology gains wider adoption and concerns about burn-in ease.
The monitor, model 45GX900A-B, uses a curved WQHD (3440 x 1440) OLED panel with an 800R curvature, a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 0.03ms gray-to-gray response time. It offers a 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio, up to 1300 nits peak brightness, and covers 98.5% of DCI-P3. It also supports both AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync for tear-free gameplay.
Beyond PC use, the display includes an HDMI 2.1 port with variable refresh rate support for Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, plus DisplayPort 1.4 and USB-C with 65W power delivery. The source notes this makes it suitable for connecting multiple devices, not just a gaming PC.
