Usually, buying a gaming monitor means picking a lane: You either get 4K resolution for the visuals or a high refresh rate for the speed. This LG UltraGear is one of the few that offers both.

The coolest thing about this monitor is that it features a "Dual Mode" that lets you toggle the display between 4K at 240Hz (which is great for single-player games) and 1080p at 480Hz (for competitive shooters where you need max frames). It also uses Nano IPS Black technology, which gives you deeper contrast than a standard IPS panel. There's just one thing I'd like to mention: Amazon has flagged this as a "frequently returned item." If you read the reviews, some say their item is perfect, while others report issues like dead pixels or backlight bleed.

At nearly half off, this is a solid deal for the specs. Since Amazon offers free returns, the smart move is to buy it and stress-test it immediately. If the panel is clean, you got a killer deal. If not, you can send it back for free.
