Make sure this fitsby entering your model number. 32" 4K (3840 x 2160) Display Vesa Display HDR 600 Dci-p3 95% Usb Type-C Radeon free Sync technology On screen control/ screen split Connectivity Technology: Usb Type C
I bought 2 of these monitors for use with a 15" MacBook Pro and an eGPU with a Radeon Rx Vega 56. No matter what cabling I used (thunderbolt 3 directly from the mac, display port and HDMI from the eGPU) the monitors always show up as 27" and not as 32" monitors. At the recommended resolution 3840 x 2160 the displays become unusable because the GPU scales the icons and the text for 27" monitors. I contacted LG support and got a response saying in a nutshell: "Thanks for contacting us and have a nice day." I dont see any choice but returning these monitors. I also keep wondering why Apple seems to promote them.

Im really disappointed in just about all aspects of this 4k monitor. However the biggest / most serious issue is an apparent "LG unique" issue where when using DP (display port), when the PC goes into "monitor off mode" (not full sleep , but the setting to turn off monitors @ X minutes), ALL LG displays will fully power off, as if you have pulled the monitor cable out. Thus all of my windows that were on the monitor are shifted around as if i had removed/ unplugged the monitor. This issue does NOT occur when you use the monitors HDMI in port. Nor does this occur with my other 4k monitors using DP /mDP. So as a result ive had to buy DP to HDMI (4k 60hz) converters *only* for my 3x LG monitors. (finding the right combination of DP to HDMi converter + HDMI cable that will all work at 4k 60hz can be a bit difficult). This "disconnect issue" mainly occurs with LG monitors and DP (search web, many people have this issue , and generally with LGs , but not always). I run 8x Monitors (4x of which are 4k). (i dont play games/game, i manage networks and code, thus need several monitors - so i am pretty familiar with various monitors and can do deep troubleshooting) Although i already had 2x LG monitors (2560x1600 @ 29") BOTH have this same DP issue (again not on HDMI though), i hoped that LG had fixed it by now (or offered a DCI enable/disable option in the menu, like other manufactures do). This is not the case, and i should have shown restraint at the low price on this purchase. Aside from the issue above, the picture/image is really poor, mainly due to a sheen or the type of anti-glare coating they place on the screen. Its a bit hard to describe without seeing it next to my other 4ks but its as if the screen is a bit "holographic" looking due to the coating. (its the coating, as i have tried tweaking every color option both on the monitor and via my GPU, to no avail). Ive had the monitor a little over 2 weeks now. anyway , bottom line, dont be fooled by the low price nor special sales offered. Find a different 4k monitor. (and dont get any LG if you plan to use DisplayPort, whether on Mac or PC)

Left side of the display is magenta while the right side is green. Why LG why. Color shifts quite a bit when you look at it from different angles too... Feels like a display from the early nineties. Also 4K at this size is still not great for Windows scaling... I think they should make a display curved at 37" 4K. Thank you for your time.

Erratic in initialization, difficult to control resolution, requires frequent resetting, sometimes characters just fade so as to be unreadable. No Mac drivers available for current OSX versions, no instructions or support for Mac. Telephone support for MAC uninformed.
