LG UltraGear 25G590B, the manufacturer's first consumer monitor offering a native 1000 Hz refresh rate at Full HD resolution, has received a CES 2027 Innovation Awards distinction in the Gaming & eSports category. The device was designed primarily for gamers competing in fast-paced shooters such as Counter-Strike 2 and Valorant. Interestingly, the monitor is already available in Polish stores.
1000 Hz without reducing resolution
The LG UltraGear 25G590B features a 24.5-inch IPS panel with a 1920 × 1080 pixel resolution. Its biggest asset is a native 1000 Hz refresh rate, allowing the image to be updated up to a thousand times per second. Unlike monitors that use Dual Mode, this does not require lowering the resolution. What’s more, when overclocked the refresh rate can rise to as much as 1100 Hz.
The manufacturer also uses Motion Blur Reduction Pro technology to reduce motion blur. The monitor supports NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible and AMD FreeSync Premium, offers a response time under 1 ms GtG, and has a typical brightness of 400 nits.
FPS gaming monitor: How much does it cost?
LG went with a compact design featuring an adjustable stand that lets you change the height, tilt, and swivel of the screen. It includes two HDMI 2.1 ports, a DisplayPort 2.1, and a USB-C connector for PC connectivity.
The model debuted in May 2026 and launched in the U.S. in August priced at $999.99. It's also available in Poland, where it costs roughly 4,200–4,300 zł.
Although the 1000 Hz refresh rate is impressive, using the monitor's full potential requires a very powerful PC and a suitably high frame rate. So it's primarily aimed at the most demanding esports players.
