The Gigabyte M27Q is a very capable and speedy gaming monitor with few flaws. Though it has a huge color gamut, red is a little under-saturated, and it doesn’t offer extra contrast in HDR mode. But you do get superb gaming performance with 170 Hz and super-low input lag.

Blacks look gray in dark environments., Poor ergonomics.
I did some research looking for a good entry 1440p monitor. It lead me to YouTube where PC builder channel recommended it for 1440p gaming. I got it and the difference that it makes its one to experience yourself. Going from 1080 to 1440 is a great upgrade that I'm saving up to buy a second one.
Solid monitor overall contrast is amazing you really get deep blacks on this panel unfortunately pixel response rate is not the greatest but it's pretty common for VA panels. Black smearing can be noticeable on some games and some people can sensetive to that kinda of stuff but if you can look past...
Bottom line is that you won’t find this quality and features for this price. I researched monitors for over 3 months before settling on this one and don’t regret the purchase. The only negatives are that texts are not as clear as my older LG 32” monitor and also not as bright and vibrant.
This is a great looking gaming monitor. If you're buying it for the KVM features, please note that one device connected via regular USB, and the other has to connect via USB C. Also note that the OSD sidekick software that allows you to change monitor settings and assign hotkeys for things such as...
This monitor has been fantastic for me. I was looking for a 4K monitor for graphic design, but ended up settling on this one as a compromise with my wallet. It has been great for my purposes. The colors out of the box were very good, but excellent after calibration.
Screen looks fine has operated fine for the few months ive owned it past few days its had this black shadow going from the top to the bottom of the ENTIRE screen kinda hard to ignore after trying to turn it off and back on which only worked for a few seconds if it did, i tried messing with alot of...
I've been on the market for a monitor for a little while now, and when I saw this monitor was on sale I sprang at the chance. Great panel, no ghosting, and after a little fiddling with the monitor program / color, works perfectly.
Monitor os big amd curve is nice. Colors really pop in games. I like the controls on the monitor. Motion blur / ghosting is the biggest let down. Playing any racing game with running wipers you will be greeted with this problem. Fps games look decent enough but motion blur is still a problem.
This monitor looks great and I think if this is you only monitor, or you buy 2 of this one you'll be fine. However, if you have this monitor plus another one with a RGB subpixel layout, you'll have a few minor issues. Mainly with text clarity.
This monitor is really good for the price, had zero issues out of the box, the monitor is very smooth at 165hz and picture is pretty crisp with 1440p resolution, iv had a 1080p monitor before and the difference is noticeable, you get less of a grainy/blurry image, I would recommend this product if...
