Questions and answers

Is the LG UltraGear evo AI GM9 worth it at $799.99?
At $799.99 at Best Buy as of November 4, 2026, it is at the low end of its recent range, so the price is favorable. It is worth it if you want 5K sharpness and 165 Hz in one screen and have a GPU that can drive it.
Can my graphics card run 5K at 165 Hz?
5K at 165 Hz is demanding; you generally need a current high-end desktop GPU and DisplayPort or USB-C with enough bandwidth. Most laptops will run the screen at 5K but at lower refresh rates.
How does it compare with a 4K 240 Hz monitor?
This panel trades some refresh rate for higher resolution: 5K is sharper for text and detail, while 4K 240 Hz panels are smoother in fast games. Choose 5K for work and detail, 4K for pure competitive speed.
Does it work with a MacBook over USB-C?
Yes, USB-C is one of its inputs, so a compatible MacBook can drive it with a single cable. Check that your Mac supports 5K output at the refresh rate you want.
What is in the box?
Expect the monitor, a stand, and the usual power and signal cables; confirm the exact cable bundle with the store before ordering. Built-in speakers mean no separate audio cable is needed.
When is it cheapest?
Its price has moved across stores; the $799.99 at Best Buy as of November 4, 2026 is near the bottom of its recent range. Holiday sales are the usual times for further cuts.
