LG's 45 inch 5K2K OLED stands out as a huge curved gaming monitor that feels deeply immersive, especially in shooters and other fast games. The 5120 by 2160 panel delivers sharp detail, and the newest firmware reportedly fixes earlier issues while reducing white balance and brightness shifts on mostly white work screens. It also works well for mixed Mac work and gaming, and the curve makes the screen feel unreal. The main catch is the demanding resolution, which can push even high end GPUs and may be awkward on consoles. It is a strong fit if your PC can drive it and you want maximum immersion.

Common Questions (6)

  • Yes, this 5120x2160 panel is demanding, and a 5080-class GPU is reported to handle games like Arc Raiders and BF6 well. A 3090 can work, but newer UE5-heavy games may need lower settings or DLSS to stay smooth.

  • Around $1300 is described as the normal price. Buying directly from LG with coupons and cashback can reportedly bring it down to about $1000 or a little over, and one purchase came to $1290 on LG's site.

  • Yes, the 45-inch curved OLED is described as extremely immersive, especially in shooters like BF6 and Siege. The huge screen and curve can fill your field of view and make games feel much more like being inside them.

  • Yes, it is used as a Mac work monitor and for gaming on a 5090. On mostly white spreadsheet screens it can sometimes shift white balance or brightness, but that behavior reportedly happens much less after firmware updates.

  • It is described as better than the Samsung G9, with one owner saying the G9 is terrible by comparison. Another drawback of the G9 is the 1440-pixel height, which some buyers regret after switching to this wider 5K2K format.

  • Not really, because the 5120x2160 resolution is unsupported on consoles and would require awkward stretching workarounds. It is mainly being discussed as a PC monitor, with console use treated as a poor fit.

Absolutely love mine, I have it wall mounted in front of my desk.

Super immersive when you have your whole field of view taken up by it in BF6.

Newest firmware fixes my only issues with it.

Have one. It's insanely cool. I play siege and bf6. Makes you feel like you're in the game. Huge screen + curve is unreal. If your pc can handle it, get it.

Wouldn't this resolution take AT LEAST an RTX 5080 to play games at a decent framerate?

Are you saying my RTX 2060 won't do? 😀

~$1300 is the normal price for this monitor. If you purchase directly from LG with a discount coupon + CB deal you can get it for $1000 or lower.

I also use it as my work monitor on my Mac and game on it with a 5090. When it's showing a big spreadsheet mostly white, it'll sometimes change white balance or brightness a bit. Definitely does it a lot less now.

I have a G9 and the first version of this monitor. I use each for different types of games. Maybe you just need a bigger desk.

I do software dev and a lot of documentation and have 2 40" monitors now, I was wondering, can someone tell me if the lettering is crisp. I know it's subjective. I currently have a dell 4025qw and lg40wp95c.
