LG have surprised us (in a good way) with the announcement of the LG W2363D 120Hz ’3D’ gaming monitor, which is due for imminent global release. The LG W2363D, known as the W63D for short (thankfully), features ‘enhanced 3D’ through the use of 172Hz processing. This doesn’t mean that the monitor supports a 172Hz refresh rate, but if the hype is to be believed it should make for a very smooth 3D experience. Other notable features of the W2363D include a ‘G-mode’ (gaming mode, that is) 3ms reponse time and a fairly brilliant (if true) 400cd/m2 luminance. We assume this is the maximum luminance and it remains to be seen whether this can be achieved without washing out the entire image, but even if the monitor comes close to this value it should make for an eye-popping 3D experience. As you would expect from this 23-incher, it’s a TN screen with a 1920×1080 (‘Full HD’) resolution.

At around £300, the price is very much inline with recently launched 23 inch+ 3D computer monitors (such as the Acer GD245HZ. And for those of you thinking that is prohibitively expensive – look into its eyes.
