Our Verdict

ASUS ROG Strix 5K XG27JCG

LG 27GM950B-B

The LG 27GM950B-B and the ASUS ROG Strix 5K XG27JCG are both 5k monitors with 330Hz dual modes. They're similar for gaming, with one difference being that the LG has a higher-bandwidth DisplayPort input. Another big difference between them is that the LG uses Mini LED backlighting, resulting in deeper blacks with brighter highlights than the ASUS. This makes the LG the better choice for gaming in HDR. The LG also has improved reflection handling, making it the better choice for well-lit rooms.
