Are you looking to upgrade? The Gigabyte G27Q is an impressive gaming proctor presently on sale for $290 on Amazon this hebdomad. This FreeSync display typically lists for $330, but Amazon has slashed the Leontyne Price to a first of $290. The G270Q sports a native-born resolution of 2560x1440, DisplayHDR 400, and comes with a net ton of valuable features.

That 1440p resolution at 165Hz (144Hz via HDMI) hits the sweet spot that we recommend for gaming. It's an excellent gambling reminder if you manage to snag yourself one of those spic-and-span AMD RX 6800 GPUs or want to wager your Xbox Series X at 2K/60Hz or 1080p/120Hz. The 27-inch IPS panel is also the size we recommend to give you a nice window into your games without taking over your entire desk.

I'm not the biggest fan of incomparable of the eyeglasses here: DisplayHDR 400, which makes colors look washed forbidden on most games supporting information technology. It's not true HDR, which requires a much brighter (and much more expensive) impanel. I am a fan of a $290 price breaker point, sol I am prepared to forgive the G27Q's limp HDR.

Kizito's review of the display praises the G27Q's colourful and smooth picture but knocks it for terrestrial pattern, which I don't entirely disagree with. Those thick bezels aren't the most flattering look in 2021. There's also a pair of helpful USB 3.0 ports on with a host of features like built-in hardware monitors that display FPS, temperatures, and more.

If you'atomic number 75 happening the fence about the Gigabyte G270Q or looking for something with a little more pizazz, check out the rest of our favorite gaming monitors of 2021 and see if anything tickles your fancy.
