This monitor boasts classic features that LG’s UltraWide monitors have become famous for, such as wide field of view, vivid colour rendering as well as ease of usability.

As the world’s first 144Hz, IPS, 21:9, UltraWide Gaming Monitor, the 34UC79G combines a blindingly fast refresh rate with advanced one millisecond Motion Blur Reduction.

The monitor also boasts seamless image transitions without annoying afterimages and the IPS display delivers accurate colour expression from any angle without distortion.

Specifically designed to meet the needs of today’s gamers, it includes features like Black Stabilizer.

And with the increase of demand for 21:9 monitors, which provide higher immersive experience, more game companies are designing games to support the 21:9 aspect ratio.

Some of the best gaming titles for your ultra-wide monitor include Doom, GTA V, Dirt Rally, The Division, Rocket League, and Skyrim.

This provides extra clear contrast, allowing viewers to detect darker objects hidden in hard to see areas.

Another feature included is Dynamic Action Sync which reduces input lag so that users can enjoy fast-paced gameplay without any delays.

It also combines a blindingly fast refresh rate with advanced 144Hz and 1ms Motion Blur Reduction on the IPS Display for fluid and clear Gaming Motion.

The monitor boasts seamless image transitions without annoying afterimages and the IPS display delivers accurate colour expression from any angle without distortion.

The inclusion of AMD FreeSync offers smooth gameplay without any stuttering or screen tearing.

The monitor also offers a crosshair option which adds a fixed target to the centre of the screen to increase accuracy during FPS games and a mouse line hook to prevent drag resistance caused by the mouse’s cable.

With the monitor’s curved shape and immersive 21:9 aspect ratio, the monitor presents a world-class gaming experience for fans of FPS, RTS or MMORPG.
