GoKawiilLG opens preorders for $999 UltraGear 25G590B, its 1,000Hz 1080p gaming monitor
LG has begun taking preorders for the UltraGear 25G590B, a 24.5-inch IPS gaming monitor it calls the first to hit a native 1,000Hz refresh rate at 1080p resolution. The monitor costs $999.99 directly from LG, though it's currently discounted to $932 on Amazon, and supports both AMD FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Rival monitors have reached 1,000Hz only by using dynamic frequency tricks at lower resolutions like 720p or by relying on TN panels, so LG's ability to combine full 1080p with an IPS panel at that refresh rate marks a genuine step forward for competitive gaming displays. The steep price signals this remains a niche, enthusiast-tier product for now rather than a mainstream refresh-rate shift.
- LG's 25G590B is priced at $999.99 direct, or $932 on Amazon, for a 24.5-inch IPS panel.
- It reaches 1,000Hz at native 1080p, unlike rivals that need lower resolutions or TN panels.
- Preordering directly from LG before August 31 adds 5% MyLG rewards and cheap extended care.
