Levelling Up with LG: How 5K is Changing the Gaming Monitor in 2026

Comments

1. Obsidian Vesper: this view is everything
2. Avamarsh: don't know if I'll be upgrading my monitor anytime soon but that image in the background does look pretty sweet
3. Lucas: don't @ me, but what's with the obsession over 5K when most games still can't pull it off?
4. Vanta Wolf: monitors get all the love nowadays 🖥️
5. Cleo: what's really going on here is whether 5K actually matters for actual gamers or it's just a novelty
6. 🌸 Manon Larsen: I've been playing with 5K monitors on my setup and I have to say, the extra real estate is great for split-screening Twitch streams. Really helps me keep track
7. Cipher Jackal: what's the point of 5K when most games still can't keep a steady frame rate?
8. Aria: only now that i've finally upgraded to a 4K monitor do i get emails from manufacturers touting 5K – guess that means i'm still on the list somewhere
