LG's Newest UltraGear Gaming Monitor Named Official Display of LEC 2023
LG Electronics' (LG) latest UltraGear gaming monitor (model 25GR75FG) has been named the official display of the League of Legends EMEA Championship (LEC) 2023. The new monitor will make its debut during the upcoming LEC season, which begins this weekend, supporting players from the region's top teams as they battle it out for tournament honors. LG UltraGear is proud to continue its strong partnership with LEC, one of the world's most popular esports leagues, and remains committed to fostering the growth of esports internationally.
Designed for competitive esports, the latest LG UltraGear gaming monitor delivers outstanding picture quality and speed thanks to a 24.5-inch Full-HD (1,920 x 1,080) IPS display with a 360 Hz refresh rate and 1 millisecond Gray-to-Gray (GTG) response time. The performance of LG's new gaming display is further boosted by the integration of NVIDIA G-SYNC technology, which minimizes screen-tearing for seamless visuals, and NVIDIA Reflex, which helps to reduce click-to-display latency for more precise control of the onscreen action. VESA Display HDR 400 certified, the 25GR75FG also ensures bright, clear images and has a 3-sided borderless design that helps increase players' sense of immersion, making it easier to focus during fierce competition.
As part of its ongoing partnership with LEC, LG has been providing the professional league with its world-class UltraGear gaming monitors since 2022. The 25GR75FG is being adopted by LEC for the 2023 season, which is being held in a brand-new format by merging Europe, Türkiye and CIS with the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) to create EMEA, a united competitive League of Legends Esports region. Optimized for esports, the 25GR75FG has been upgraded from its predecessor with the help of feedback from LEC players. The design, features and capabilities of the new UltraGear model make it an ideal choice not only for pro-players, but for anyone who loves the thrill of competitive gaming.
"We are delighted to announce the continuation of our partnership with LG for the upcoming LEC 2023 Season," said Eva Suarez, head of partnerships for EMEA at Riot Games. "We're dedicated to providing our competitors with the best gaming experience possible and the new LG UltraGear gaming monitor will go a long way in offering our League of Legends pros outstanding picture quality every time they step onto the LEC stage."
"LG is very excited to introduce the 25GR75FG at the upcoming LEC 2023," said Seo Young-jae, head of the IT business unit of LG Electronics Business Solutions Company. "Super-fast gear fine-tuned for the demands of professional esports, our incredible high-performance display will be in the thick of the action as the best teams in the EMEA region play for victory. LG UltraGear will continue to support LEC and help foster the growth of esports worldwide."

24 Comments on LG's Newest UltraGear Gaming Monitor Named Official Display of LEC 2023
outstanding screen-door effect
Don't care what any "professional" gamer says, you can't compare "professional esports" to any major professional sport - NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL (that's Basketball, American Football, Baseball and Hockey, respectfully) - where players actually bust their asses, get injured (sometimes rather brutally) and actually play with injuries/illness, etc.
And don't even get me started on actually watching somebody else or a group of people play a damn video game, on the edge of my seat and acting like it's Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs or World Series. Esports can't compare there, either!
/rant over :D
But this monitor is useless - small, low resolution and relatively low refresh. You would want your CS at 1000 Hz :D
$150 for 240hz.
$500?
$700? for 360hz? Same panel? Don't be silly.
I'd take a 240Hz OLED over this garbage any day.
Gordon Ramsey and Lebron James are both impressive in what they do but if I'm starting a flag football team or beer softball, the person I'm picking first is easy.a long time when I was in high school, our girlfriends would sit around and watch us play Madden, Sonic, NHL hockey, etc., I have no clue how they did it. If I wasn't playing I was bored out of mind in 30 seconds.
As for the lack of 25" 1440p monitors it's likely that the display manufacturers simply don't forecast much consumer demand. It wouldn't be a manufacturing challenge, there are plenty of high dot pitch displays (like Retina Displays in Apple MacBooks). The main demand for desktop PC monitors appears to be 24", 27", 32".
Backlight strobing is a big help as it reduces motion blur, especially at 180 FPS and up. This is quite noticeable in CS:GO, Valorant and especially Apex Legends, particularly when fighting in close range and doing movement tech.
