    Hey,

    I have a 2019 LG oled B9 that I bought from richer sounds last year.

    I can't get a straight answer anywhere so mayhe you can, it appears this TV is absolutely worthless with the new gaming consoles. Its not able to deliver 120 fps even though it has hdmi 2.1

    Can you give some advice on this because its not good , enough that a TV that is this expensive is worthless after a year.

    I can't get a straight answer anywhere, from LG or other forum's

    There has been a recent update to the tv but I said nothing about this so hoping you guys can contact LG and find out for sure.

    Thanks
    Dave

    Doesn't seem with that review it's actually been tested.

    Any reviews that I have read where it's actually been tested say it doesn't work.

    It does support 4k 120 HDR with rtx 3080 so definitely will do with the new consoles just make sure your tv firmware is update to new version

    It does support 4K 120hz and VRR with Nvidia Gsync for PS5. The link you cited was a pretty old one. They've fixed a lot of issues since then. It's a 120hz panel and the 2.1 port is fully certified for the full 48gbs bandwidth of full HDMI 2.1. It also supports Nvidia Gsync for VRR. So, I definitely wouldn't worry about it, it's an ideal TV to have for next gen gaming.

    Hey Guys.

    Pretty much what Loughrey posted and the other guys said.
    I've done some checking myself online and have the same opinion.

    "It does support 4K 120hz and VRR with Nvidia Gsync for PS5. The link you cited was a pretty old one. They've fixed a lot of issues since then. It's a 120hz panel and the 2.1 port is fully certified for the full 48gbs bandwidth of full HDMI 2.1. It also supports Nvidia Gsync for VRR."


    If you want further confirmation on this you could call the LG tech team directly and they should be able to confirm this for you.

    Any issues please let us know.

    Kenny.
