The addition of NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatibility guarantees even more immersive big-screen PC gaming on the 4K OLED models (model 65/55E9, model 77/65/55C9), available in 55-inch to 77-inch screen sizes.
NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible support for LG’s 2019 OLED TVs will become available in select markets via a firmware upgrade in the weeks to follow.
“It’s no secret LG OLED TVs are coveted by gamers world over and we are committed to optimising the OLED gaming experience for them,” said Sam Kim, LG’s senior vice-president of the TV product planning division.

Along with infinite contrast and highly accurate colour reproduction, the latest OLED TV models offers an ultra-fast response time with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz.
LG says input lag is “barely perceptible at a 6 milliseconds range for 1440p content at 120Hz and 13 milliseconds range for 4K content at 60Hz”.
LG’s latest OLED TV models support a variety of popular HDR formats, with users having the ability to play compatible titles in dynamic HDR10 or Dolby Vision (at up to 120fps for Full HD content).
Users can also take advantage of HDMI 2.1 specifications such as auto low latency mode, enhanced audio return channel and variable refresh rate.
