Availability aside and 2020 being all 2020 late last year we not only saw the release of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, but long awaited PC debut of the GeForce RTX 3080 and the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT. With all of these supporting the new HDMI 2.1 standard and the LG OLED range feature packed with game-goodness, well, the 48-inch model is basically one display to rule them all.

A snippet.

At CES last year, LG announced that it was planning to extend the OLED family of displays to include a far more desk-friendly 48-inch model -- which for context, still makes it a very large display (BFD) for PC gaming. The timing couldn’t have been better though, as late-2020 saw the release of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT, and a couple of next-gen consoles in the form of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and slimline Xbox Series S.

And just like any great ‘how they met’ story the HDMI 2.1 capabilities of all the above took full advantage of the LG OLED range’s excellent game-focused features like 4K 120Hz support with HDR, G-Sync compatibility, AMD FreeSync Premium, Dolby Vision, and all of the smart stuff that has made the LG OLED something of the be-all end-all in the high-end TV space.
