A new 34-inch UltraWide desktop monitor designed with gamers in mind will be introduced by South Korean gadget company LG during next week's Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2015 in Las Vegas, The Verge is reporting.
The rather large 21:9 display monitor integrates support for AMD's FreeSync which gets rid of screen tears that can pop up when your monitor and graphics card are out of sync. LG is calling this one of its best displays yet, and is promising unrivaled color accuracy based on the UltraWide's IPS panel, the ability to output 99 percent of the sRGB color gamut and 178 degree viewing angles.
The company will also launch a flat version of the monitor: The UM67, which keeps the curved monitor's FreeSync tech and 21:9 resolution.
Despite the gamer-focused technology, LG is also aiming these new monitors at, oddly enough, stock traders and brokers. These new monitors can actually be stacked together, which LG seems to believe would be useful for those dealing with market tickers and the like day-in and day-out.
I must say that this new monitor does look rather slick. It has a very cool form-factor that I'm quite sure would draw people's attention to it wherever it was placed in a room and/or office. If LG keeps the price reasonable on this product the company could have a big winner on its hands.
