LG 43UD79-B Epic Review

Описание: Monitor unboxing and setup, gaming benchmarks with a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, monitor feature guide focusing on multiple devices on-screen at once, and final thoughts. A massive fifty minutes worth! Click "SHOW MORE" for the table of contents.

Notes:
1. A Playstation 4 Pro will output 4K to this monitor, and looks great doing so. But there is a trick to make that work, as your only choices to start with are 720p and 1080p (4K will be greyed out). See the other LG 43UD79-B video on my channel for a short how-to guide.

2. Not all USB-C cables are created equal. Some only work at USB 2 speeds, and will NOT drive this monitor. The "charge cable" that comes with new MacBooks and MacBook Pros is one such example of a USB-C cable that won't put an image on this screen. So make sure it is a USB-C cable fast enough for 4K at 60hz before you buy it if you choose the USB-C hookup in back of the monitor.

3. Though the monitor is advertised in some places as able to charge devices over USB-C, I could only get it charging my 2016 MacBook Pro 13" at 7W. Not enough for almost all devices. Especially a proper notebook. I verified all of my USB-C cables could charge my 2016 MacBook Pro 13" at 60W when connected between the notebook itself and its own AC adapter. So, unless I'm missing something, don't count on this monitor to charge your devices.

4. My apologies for using a GoPro, complete with its distorted settings. It's the least lame option of what I could get running at the time.
