Verdicts from multiple LG UQ8000 reviews find that the TV is suitable for casual gaming. Only the 86-inch UQ8000 model has features that would work for a heavy gamer. The 86-inch display distinguishes itself from the rest of the UQ8000 panels in the following ways:• This is the only UQ8000 panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and it’s the only model that can render 4K/120 content• The 86-inch model has a HDMI 2.1 port to support 4K/120 content• Buyers of the 86UQ8000 also get to enjoy the benefits of VRR (variable refresh rate). VRR prevents screen tearing in case of a mismatch between the frame rates of the TV and a connected gaming deviceThese features are absent from smaller TVs in the LG UQ8000 series. Still, all models support 4K games with a 60fps frame rate. The absence of a 120fps refresh rate means that none of the smaller panels can make full use of the latest gaming consoles.All UQ8000 models have low lag, which translates into decent motion handling for fast-action games. However, the UQ8000 models with IPS screens are dim by the standards of high-performance TV screens. This limitation takes away from the panels’ ability to render visuals that leap off the screen with highlights, detail, and vivid color.
