Hyper Mini LED meets ultra-high-resolution gaming
The LG 27GM950B introduces Hyper Mini LED to a 27-inch 5K gaming display. Its 5120 × 2880 resolution and 218 PPI density are designed to render fine in-game detail, menus, text and productivity content with high clarity.
- IPS panel with anti-glare surface treatment
- DCI-P3 99% colour gamut (typical)
- 750 cd/m² typical brightness and up to 1250 nits peak brightness
- 10-bit colour using 8-bit + FRC, with 1.06 billion colours
Light where it matters
Brightness, contrast and minimised blooming
Hyper Mini LED uses 2,304 local dimming zones and 9,216 LEDs. Zero Optical Distance technology reduces the panel-to-backlight gap to near zero to help minimise light bleed and blooming.
DisplayHDR 1000
VESA-certified DisplayHDR 1000 supports bright highlights, defined shadows and high-contrast HDR gaming visuals.
Minimised blooming
More local dimming zones and LEDs than LG's referenced conventional Mini LED model help control bright objects against dark scenes.
5K clarity and on-device AI
Sharper detail with intelligent 5K upscaling
A built-in processor powers 5K AI Upscaling, enhancing compatible input content toward 5K resolution without requiring a GPU upgrade for the upscaling function itself.
5120 × 2880 resolution
The 5K display provides a dense 218 PPI image for detailed games and text-heavy work.
5K AI Upscaling
LG identifies the 27GM950B as the first gaming monitor to support AI upscaling to 5K, based on published specifications as of March 2026.
AI Upscaling requirements: performance varies with the input source. A compatible external PC, GPU or console is still required to operate a game. LG recommends setting the console or PC to 1080p at 60Hz for optimal AI upscaling performance.
One display, two performance profiles
Switch between 5K 165Hz and QHD 330Hz
VESA Certified Dual-Mode lets you prioritise resolution or refresh rate. Select 5K at 165Hz for detailed RPG, adventure and AAA titles, or QHD at 330Hz for fast-paced FPS and racing games.
The 1ms GtG response time at the Faster setting is designed to reduce ghosting and maintain clearer transitions during rapid movement.
218 PPI precision
Fine in-game text, interface elements, documents, web pages and code can be displayed with high pixel density.
Smoother synchronised motion
NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible and AMD FreeSync Premium technologies help reduce tearing and stuttering.
Picture and sound intelligence
AI Scene Optimisation and AI Sound
AI Scene Optimisation recognises the content on screen and adjusts picture settings including colour temperature, colour enhancement and sharpness for Office, Animation, Movie, Game and Sports modes.
AI Sound separates voices, effects and background audio to create a virtual 7.1.2-channel sound experience through the built-in 7W × 2 stereo speakers or connected headphones.
Modern connectivity
Connect a desktop, laptop and console
The 27GM950B combines high-bandwidth display inputs with a single-cable USB-C connection.
- 1 × DisplayPort 2.1 with UHBR 20
- 2 × HDMI 2.1
- 1 × USB-C with display output, data transfer and up to 90W Power Delivery
- 2 × USB 3.2 Gen 1 downstream ports
- 4-pole headphone output supporting sound and microphone
Positioned for your setup
A flexible, streamlined gaming display
The OneClick stand supports tilt, height, swivel and pivot adjustments. The monitor is also wall-mountable, while Unity Hexagon Lighting adds an UltraGear visual accent to the rear of the display.
