Hey man just wanted to say your channel is so underrated man, and really appreciate your hard work and effort sir! I bought the lg gp950 i will definitely be playing on hdr vivid and will increase those settings!
Thx friend. I really appreciate it. In HDR you can make your HDR better in the nvidia control panel add some brightness and contrast and maybe some D. Vibrance to get a more puncher picture. Just try it.. +55,+60+60 you may like it...

I really wanted to get the GN950 but like its successor, you can't get them in stock anywhere in the US right now unless you pay a premium. People are selling the GP950 for $1,250 to $1,300 and honestly, for that price I would just buy an LG CX 48" OLED over it. The price to performance isn't worth it at that markup.
For sure. That's why I'm holding out for 3080... I'm not ever going to pay Mark up prices... hopefully they can restock soon. Someone said LG has component shortage.. Thats interesting... all this chip shortage news is hitting home now... Thats unfortunate... they did have the LG in Stock for a wk before it sold out. I'll post again in the community when I see it...
Oooh that hurts, can buy one for 650 € rn... For once we get the better price in EU ! Forget about those damn tvs filled with software and that glossy coat, ugh.

i love my gn950 and ive tested every hyped monitor over the years even the pg32uqx. nothing comes close to this sharpness and picture clarity. best sdr gaming monitor
Nice! It's funny I have so many Monitors but when I use them of course older ones are used more due to time. I still find myself missing them when I switch to a newer one. The GN950 is still one of the best...
@@DisplayReality i know what you mean. i miss g9/neo_g9 for productivity altough i prefer having 2 monitors to having only superwide, but still it was pretty cool for some months to work on them. but what i dont want to miss out on is >160ppi of like the gn950 or gp950. you cannot enjoy normal displays when you had this experience imo. i dont want to work or game on "blurry" displays again.
@@sulliwan I have a rtx 3060 ti and r7 3700x so a 4k monitor would maybe be too much because i have to play in 1440p. But does 1440p look good on a 4k monitor? I would like to have a 4k monitor because of watching movies and video editing
the problem is that hdr600 is not enough to get a quality HDR, you need at least 1000 and even so it all depends how the panel handles the local dimming. For ex. the Odyssey g9 neo was supposed to be the top of the line : 2000nits, Mini-Led etc but it handles HDR very poorly + all the same problems that have been plaguing the OG G9. If you want true blacks and good HDR get an OLED TV for half the price of these monitors. Just watch out for burning.
RTINGS just released there Review of the LG 27GP950 Monitor 3hrs after my video and findings!! I am correct on my findings... The GP is lower in brightness than the GN. Real scene is sustained while I show alot of transitions.
The differences are not due to panel lottery, because these monitors do not have the same panel. I've asked Rtings to check the panel model as the coatings are different. They replied: ''For the GN, it’s ‘LM270W8-SSA1’ and for the GP it’s LM270WR8-SSA1.''
Rtings shows lower performance on the GP vs the GN on brightness. Give or take nits difference. LG has added 4k120hz on the GP so it's different as it needs to drive the panel faster. But they are not too different like 2 kinds of lines. To my eyes they feel, look the same. So just from a GN to GP name difference there is nothing that makes it stand out as it seems the GP is more refined plus any Firmware advancements software wise. One panel could easily be confused for the other on a blind test.
@@DisplayReality Yeah, you're right. Rtings replied once again saying that they had made a typo. They forgot to type the R for the GN. So it is the same panel
Hey Viktor! Awesome video as always and super descriptive! Where’d you get the music towards the end of the video? Would love to listen to it while I work.
Thx friend I appreciate it. I'll find a nice picture to accompany it and post on the other channel. I might change the name to Viktors Reality Extra just In case you see it different soon.
I Buyed the GN and the GP on my sample the GN is much brighter and the white is really white on the GP the white looks compare yellow, dont buy the GP !!! It is a downgrade ! Also the backlight LED ring is on the GN Monitor brighter and better made of becouse it isnt flat, so the room can be better illuminated. Tested both with Display Port.
Bro so i wanted to upgrade from my GN950 for my ps5. I tried the the M32u and the tuf vg28u and they were terrible lol, so I decided to stick with lg and now my GP950 Arrives friday!
Why is everybody so obsessed with 2.1 Hdmi monitors when there's only a few games that actually play 120 fps in 4k and they're not even big titles? The best games will still keep coming out in 60 fps in 4k. Developers will not downgrade graphics in order to run it 120 fps. 120 fps in 4k is not realistic on ps5 for AAA games.
I think it comes down to each panel beeing individual. Some faster some slower. Also I think newer (produced late 2020/early 2021) GNs have a fast Response Time like the GPs.
True... I'm just showing my 2 panels as it was a requested video. But later tonight I will show another youtubers findings showing that my video is true on the GN being brighter by 50-70nits in HDR. I'll post in the community.
@@DisplayReality It seems to me that LG might have a hard time sourcing components for the hdmi 2.1 port. Here in europe the gn is regulary restocked which is weired as it is officially discontinued since like january. The thing that is really putting me of is that some youtubers found that the gp has better response times. This has prevented me from buying it. Does this seem true with your two?
@@DisplayReality So after seeing RTINGs review and comparing it side by side indeed the new GP has a way better coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut. This is apparently the case because confirmed be LG they use a different type of backlight to achieve longer sustained brightness when using HDR. All in all I am getting sick of waiting for it to arrive in Europe again in large quantities so I am thinking about buying another one.
@@jabbe86 you can use 4k 160 hz over DisplayPort (which is the better cable anyways) ...unless you are a console player, but stating "whats the point buying the GN and play 4k 60hz" is simply wrong xD
Hey man. Love your videos. I just got the GP. Do you have any recommendations for settings? I have a 3080 graphics card and to be honest it looks ok. But I think its mainly due to my screen settings and stuff.
Wow thx... I stand correct... I do have the best eyeballs in the business..🤣🤣🤣 The GP is lower in brightness than the GN version. Real scenes is sustained while my findings transition alot. Nice!
Guys help. I want to buy a lg gp 950-b monitor. Connect your xbox series x to it. I'm interested in LFC (Low Framerate Compensation). In the game at 30 fps, will it compensate for this frequency as in the display port, that is, triple (90 fps) or nothing will happen?
Either hard reset (disconnect all cables for 30min) or change cables. If it happens on all inputs then its the monitor or device if it's the same. Try Console thru hdmi and PC thru dp
An important detail that seems to be missing here, is that LG market the GP as being able to deliver over 120fps (144hz/160hz OC) at 4k gaming even though both use Display Port 1.4. Something that is incredibly relevant now with the 4090 generation out. Am i missing something, or is it true that the GP can go over 120 fps, but the GN cannot?
Both do 160 OC with DP 1.4 DSC, I have the gn950 because it was 150€ cheaper and I only play on PC. With HDMI on the GP950 you can max do 120hz so it’s really only for consoles, for PC the gn950 is the better product since it’s cheaper and the rest is the same
🤣... no worries. No news yet. I posted today the link on the new G5 1440p IPS but so far nothing on the G7 28". Mine says delivery until late Oct... so it's still not yet available in the US.

It's very minimal. Swe rtings comparison to see what I say. The GP has lower brightness and more contrast by a very small degree andx4k120hz while the GN is brighter anf 4k60hz. That's basically it. They are very close in everything
Are you using hdr Vivid mode? Monitor color settings? Also have you checked your hdr calibration and specific game calibration to adjust even more your preferred settings.
@@DisplayReality yes. It's less yellow than with game 1. But wish it was little cooler. I don't know if it's a huge upgrade from my ul600. Might just return it and wait for real hdr monitors to get cheaper
@@DisplayReality i havent played around with the settings as im a bit of newb to it so left it on the default. Mines HDR on Gamer1, been searching around for good settings but not many vids available due to the monitor being new and lack of stock
I haven't really calibrated yet but that is a great start. Gamer1. In the nvidia control panel you can add a little pop if you need more brightness but instead of +55 should be + 47 or +49.
I wish you would have at least showed the HDMI 2.1 specs. Does it use the full bandwidth? 15 minutes of useless content. I like your reviews most of the time but this one was a filler.
😬... LOL.. anyway... thx for watching my other content friend. Happy New Years.. this was just a side by side of both as the screen tech to me is the same other than thebGN being brighter and the GP having more contrast as per rtings report also.
@@DisplayReality Thanks for the response. I didn't mean to sound so harsh. I am more of a spec guy but I missed the intent of this video. Have a safe new year and expect to see some new products on your channel.
I do say that friend. Also this was a requested video as they wanted to see as the GP is not yet available in there country. Every panel is different but other reviews are showing GP is lower in brightness also.. I will post later today another reviewers info showing my video to be true on brightness differences...
@@DisplayReality have you seen rtings review? "The 27GP950-B is also a lot brighter (compared to GN950) in real scenes in HDR, and it has a much better HDR color gamut, with significantly better DCI P3 coverage."
Their review shows the GN is brighter see a side by side. Peak hdr is brighter as the local dimming is brighter by 50 its like I say.. Real scenes are overall. Im showing peak with hdr local dimming. But don't testbwithbwhateverbimages they use. See community post later as I have more proof on numbers from other reviewers.. but they are so close... but I can see it. I say sdr looks sometimes brighter on the GP...
@@DisplayReality anyway, this is nothing, who cares? =) Calibrated brightness is about 120 nits, any monitor can do it. For HDR maybe, but the difference is negligible. BTW, today I got my GP950 and it has 1 dead pixel :( Will return it.
It looks more contrastyyy lol thx for the video, could my hands on the gp, was going to get alienwares new oled ultrawide but I don’t like the black bars.
@@DisplayReality Nah i checked it to make sure if its correct then i found out about Hdmi 2.1 is missing in the description .In India GP isnt available in Amazon or Flipkart😓.I will wait some more time .
Are you sure you didn't swap the names by mistake? I sense the left monitor is more contrast and saturated (which is suppose to be the GP), while the right monitor is more bright (which it's suppose to be the GN).
The GN is and was always on the left. The GP is on the right. The menu shows the position. Honestly... I was a bit surprised. I have also seen another youtuber from Europe do testes and he shows the GP lower in brightness also. It Could be just our panels...? I will post another reviewers findings tonight...
@@DisplayReality I am watching your video through my own 27GN950, I don't know if I am going crazy but it seems your description of both monitors in the video is NOT WRONG but just the other way around? In the video the monitor on the left is always looking slightly darker and saturated when your voice-over said it's the monitor on the right that is more darker/saturated, I am a bit confused about that. Can you rewatch this video and confirm is still correct?
No worries friend. Ok let's see. Try to view it in sRGB mode on your GN. Full brightness. I edited the video on my GP. They are so close that it's hard. But pls see my post around 3pm on proof that another reviewer is showing the GP less bright. I rewatched the video on my phone everything looks correct but 90% of the time it looks better on the GP and I think because of the blueish tint it could appear brighter under certain scenes. But 5% difference is about right. I'll make more Vs videos like I aways do to capture more of this. GN is on the left while GP is on the Right.
Wow!! I posted my eyeball findings and rtings just released there review 3hrs after mine. I stand correct. The GP is lower in brightness vs the GN... check it out friend.
Yes ive bought it yesterday and I chosed the gn950 instead of the gp950 since I only play on PC, also you can do 160hz with DP 1.4 on both monitors, but with HDMI 2.1 you can only do 120hz on the GP950, so DP 1.4 is better anyway for this monitors
Wait you said the GP is darker and saturated while gn is brighter....but its actually the opposite from what im seeing, you sure you didnt switched the name on the video?
The names are correct you can see by the menu in the video. The GP has a sloppy Local dimming vs the gn is why you may see it being brighter sometimes (the gp is more wide Local dimming but less bright on highlights). Rtings confirms my opinion. But they are super close. Nothing that says one is better than the other. Just my observation.
Hey man if I got the gn version you said you could match the color, so what settings do I need to put on to get the same contrast as the gp model? Thanks for all the info super helpful!
Just set to Gamer1 and Contrast to 60-70. Brightness to whatever you like and it will be good. As every panel is different from the factory I can't tell you to reduce blue if you panel is more warm. On my GP it's a tad bluer but not crazy. I kind of like it. But in settings you can reduce rgb colors seperatly if you think a certain color is overpowering. Just lower 1 number at a time until you think it looks right.
The 27gp950 is more premium screen. You can tell that the 27gp950 has more Quality to it besides resolution. Plus it has the Sphere 2.0. That's a nice touch and look
@@DisplayReality You between a 27-inch monitor and a 32-inch one, which one would you recommend for exclusive use for ps5? Calculating that game purely simulation games then with steering wheel and pedals
It's nice only when you help it thru the nvidia control panel. But now the prices are cheaper so I say it's great for the price of say under 699 on a sale on PC.
Honestly I am showing my 2 panels. Everyone's panels may vary slightly. But rtings and others confirm what I show. That at 100% brightness (call it panel difference or maybe LG changed the software or algorithm) that the GN is brighter potential but lower contrast vs the GP. It's tough. But if you lower the brightness they look identical.

I haven't really calibrated yet but that is a great start. Gamer1. In the nvidia control panel you can add a little pop if you need more brightness but instead of +55 should be + 47 or +49.
@@DisplayReality Thanks for the tip
Who is the best among them?
GP is future proofed with 4k120hz... GN is a small bit brighter tho...
I wish you would have at least showed the HDMI 2.1 specs. Does it use the full bandwidth? 15 minutes of useless content. I like your reviews most of the time but this one was a filler.
😬... LOL.. anyway... thx for watching my other content friend. Happy New Years.. this was just a side by side of both as the screen tech to me is the same other than thebGN being brighter and the GP having more contrast as per rtings report also.
@@DisplayReality Thanks for the response. I didn't mean to sound so harsh. I am more of a spec guy but I missed the intent of this video. Have a safe new year and expect to see some new products on your channel.
Absolutely pointless video. Brightness and contrast can fluctuate from sample to sample.
I do say that friend. Also this was a requested video as they wanted to see as the GP is not yet available in there country. Every panel is different but other reviews are showing GP is lower in brightness also.. I will post later today another reviewers info showing my video to be true on brightness differences...
@@DisplayReality have you seen rtings review? "The 27GP950-B is also a lot brighter (compared to GN950) in real scenes in HDR, and it has a much better HDR color gamut, with significantly better DCI P3 coverage."
Their review shows the GN is brighter see a side by side. Peak hdr is brighter as the local dimming is brighter by 50 its like I say.. Real scenes are overall. Im showing peak with hdr local dimming. But don't testbwithbwhateverbimages they use. See community post later as I have more proof on numbers from other reviewers.. but they are so close... but I can see it. I say sdr looks sometimes brighter on the GP...
@@DisplayReality anyway, this is nothing, who cares? =) Calibrated brightness is about 120 nits, any monitor can do it. For HDR maybe, but the difference is negligible.
BTW, today I got my GP950 and it has 1 dead pixel :( Will return it.
For sure return it if you got a dead pixel. For this price we pay it better come almost perfect...
Any idea when the 34” with hdmi 2.1 will release to USA?
It looks more contrastyyy lol thx for the video, could my hands on the gp, was going to get alienwares new oled ultrawide but I don’t like the black bars.
I almost bought GN lol it has HDMI 2.0 how will i connect ps5 😆
🤣 so you got the GP? They look so similar it can be mistaken easily..
@@DisplayReality Nah i checked it to make sure if its correct then i found out about Hdmi 2.1 is missing in the description .In India GP isnt available in Amazon or Flipkart😓.I will wait some more time .
any alternative of LG gp950-b??
Well for overall usage I would day for 799 the m32u seems like an all arounder. Great brightness with black equalizer and size if 4k...
I have pc what is better for pc?
I love GP, i hve the G7, 27".
Thank you!
If I don't need hdmi 2.1 GN950 is the way to go? (LG Support told me that..)
Are you sure you didn't swap the names by mistake? I sense the left monitor is more contrast and saturated (which is suppose to be the GP), while the right monitor is more bright (which it's suppose to be the GN).
The GN is and was always on the left. The GP is on the right. The menu shows the position. Honestly... I was a bit surprised. I have also seen another youtuber from Europe do testes and he shows the GP lower in brightness also. It Could be just our panels...? I will post another reviewers findings tonight...
@@DisplayReality I am watching your video through my own 27GN950, I don't know if I am going crazy but it seems your description of both monitors in the video is NOT WRONG but just the other way around?
In the video the monitor on the left is always looking slightly darker and saturated when your voice-over said it's the monitor on the right that is more darker/saturated, I am a bit confused about that.
Can you rewatch this video and confirm is still correct?
No worries friend. Ok let's see. Try to view it in sRGB mode on your GN. Full brightness. I edited the video on my GP. They are so close that it's hard. But pls see my post around 3pm on proof that another reviewer is showing the GP less bright. I rewatched the video on my phone everything looks correct but 90% of the time it looks better on the GP and I think because of the blueish tint it could appear brighter under certain scenes. But 5% difference is about right. I'll make more Vs videos like I aways do to capture more of this. GN is on the left while GP is on the Right.
Wow!! I posted my eyeball findings and rtings just released there review 3hrs after mine. I stand correct. The GP is lower in brightness vs the GN... check it out friend.
viktors when the video m28u vs gp950?
For this Friday I'm working on it now.. thx..
You're amazing, do a great job and your videos are very professional
Thx friend... Ill try to show response time UFO test, brightness, Local dimming and overall value the M28U has vs the GP.
I would only be using the monitor for pc gaming with display port and the gn is $170 cheaper. You think that is the better one to go with?
Yes ive bought it yesterday and I chosed the gn950 instead of the gp950 since I only play on PC, also you can do 160hz with DP 1.4 on both monitors, but with HDMI 2.1 you can only do 120hz on the GP950, so DP 1.4 is better anyway for this monitors
Wait you said the GP is darker and saturated while gn is brighter....but its actually the opposite from what im seeing, you sure you didnt switched the name on the video?
The names are correct you can see by the menu in the video. The GP has a sloppy Local dimming vs the gn is why you may see it being brighter sometimes (the gp is more wide Local dimming but less bright on highlights). Rtings confirms my opinion. But they are super close. Nothing that says one is better than the other. Just my observation.
@@DisplayReality if you had to choose which one would you get?
Hey man if I got the gn version you said you could match the color, so what settings do I need to put on to get the same contrast as the gp model? Thanks for all the info super helpful!
Just set to Gamer1 and Contrast to 60-70. Brightness to whatever you like and it will be good. As every panel is different from the factory I can't tell you to reduce blue if you panel is more warm. On my GP it's a tad bluer but not crazy. I kind of like it. But in settings you can reduce rgb colors seperatly if you think a certain color is overpowering. Just lower 1 number at a time until you think it looks right.
Hello do you recommend buying the monitor 27gp950 or 32gp850? Thank you
The 27gp950 is more premium screen. You can tell that the 27gp950 has more Quality to it besides resolution. Plus it has the Sphere 2.0. That's a nice touch and look
@@DisplayReality You between a 27-inch monitor and a 32-inch one, which one would you recommend for exclusive use for ps5? Calculating that game purely simulation games then with steering wheel and pedals
which of these monitor would you get? LG 27GN950 or m32U?
m32u for future proof 4k120hz plus the m32u is just as good on speed of the panel. colors go to the LG but not crazy difference
How’s the HDR?
It's nice only when you help it thru the nvidia control panel. But now the prices are cheaper so I say it's great for the price of say under 699 on a sale on PC.
or just have to lower brightness of the gp for have same result as gn?
Honestly I am showing my 2 panels. Everyone's panels may vary slightly. But rtings and others confirm what I show. That at 100% brightness (call it panel difference or maybe LG changed the software or algorithm) that the GN is brighter potential but lower contrast vs the GP. It's tough. But if you lower the brightness they look identical.
@@DisplayReality hum i see , thank you man , very good job and awesome chanel
hii. nice video .we are waiting for samsung g7 vs lg 32gp850. thanks :)
Hey bro just got my gp950 thanks for your help should I play hdr or vivid for 4K gaming best colors? And any other setting you recommend to tweak?
Vivid HDR looks way better to me. Are you on PC or Consoles?.
