As one of the first monitors, the 27-inch LG 27GP950 UltraGear 4K UHD monitor has an HDMI 2.1 interface, which makes a frame rate of 120 Hz at a resolution of 4K (3,840 × 2,160 pixels) also possible via HDMI due to its higher data rate. Thus, the frame rate also reaches 144 Hz (only via DisplayPort and a maximum of 120 Hz via HDMI 2.1), overclockable to 160 Hz. It also supports HDMI 2.1 Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) at up to 120Hz on both PCs and the latest generation of consoles.
