LG's new 39-inch 5K2K OLED is easily my favourite new PC monitor at CES 2026 and it might just be the gaming panel I've been waiting for

CES 2026 has been a bit of a blowout for the PC. Nvidia and AMD had basically squat to show off, leaving Intel's Panther Lake as the only major tech launch. Except, that is, for monitors and what looks to me like the most exciting gaming display of 2026.

I give you the LG UltraGear Evo 39GX950B, all 39 inches of it. This new gaming monitor has so much going for it. It gets LG's latest OLED panel tech (albeit minus the RGB-stripe subpixel layout) and a 5K2K native resolution.

That's 5,120 by 2,160 pixels.
