There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So far, it's very good for the price.
Things I'm most impressed with:
-Black uniformity (Very good on my unit, especially for a curved VA panel)
-Grey uniformity (Okay on my unit, above average for sure)
-White uniformity (Absolutely perfect on my unit, 0 flaws)
-Lack of backlight bleed (My unit has the slightest bleed in the top left and bottom right corners, but hardly noticeable.)
-Zero dead pixels
-Fast Pixel Response (It is much faster than the LG, even being VA, VA has come a long way! There is some blur, but nothing that bothers me as it's much better than my previous monitor. My unit passes the blur busters test with ease to the naked eye)
-Color accuracy (I haven't officially tested it, it out of the box stock settings seem to be pretty accurate to my eye, I changed the settings though as I like the oversaturated look)
-Overdrive settings (Previous reviews from Tech Channels when this product first came out always mentioned improperly calibrated Overdrive settings. Gigabyte seems to have fixed this on the newest models, I have noticed no issues using the "balanced" overdrive mode @165Hz)
-Overall Brightness (This thing punches well above 250 nits, other reviewers on their units have cited 320 nits, mine feels even higher, potentially pushing 350+ nits peak brightness. It can hurt my eyes in the dark)
-Useful extras included (Gigabyte includes 3 separate power cables (for different countries), a DP cable, and an HDMI cable. Decent quality cables as well, nice bonus.)
-Great packaging, assembly was super quick and straightforward. Only thing that got me stuck was releasing the spring tension from the monitor arm. There is a small piece of black plastic keeping the spring tension, I first tried to remove it without releasing the spring tension, that was a no go. Once you push up on the stand and release the tension, the plastic falls out with ease and the monitor arm snaps back how it's supposed to, and you can install the stand. It's ready to go after that.
The not so good:
-G-Sync flicker. (It flickers bad, and I'm still trying to diagnose it. Some games do, and others don't, so it might not be the monitor. To my understanding, ALL G-Sync monitors flicker, some less than others. So far, playing around with a few settings has helped reduce it, I will update if I find a way to completely mitigate the flicker. I also have not tried a different DP cable, that might fix it as well. I'm not putting this issue against the monitor just yet as many other trusted reviewers mentioned G-Sync working fine on their units.)
-Annoying port placement (Ports and IO is on the bottom of the monitor, serious design oversight. Very difficult to plug things in, you have to reach under the monitor and do it blind.)
-That's it that I can find so far, if any issues arise in the future I will update the review accordingly.
Something worth mentioning:
-The seller (Amazon in my case) is supposed to stamp the warranty card with the purchase date. If they do not (Of course they didn't, even though the box arrived opened, indicating that they did!!!!) your warranty begins from date of manufacture, not date of purchase. This is super annoying as I just lost a year of warranty coverage thanks to Amazon refusing to stamp the warranty card.
Final thoughts: Overall, fantastic budget 1440p 27" curved VA high refresh rate monitor. For the price I paid ($270 + tax), it is 110% worth it. Great upgrade coming from an older (2014-2015) LG IPS Ultrawide panel.
PC1: A gaming laptop that connected through HDMI can reach 1440p 144hz. The colors are powerful and accurate, but it will not get to use 165hz because of the HDMI limitations.
PC2: A mini pc with a display port. it can get to use the 165hz without problem and 170hz if you overclock the monitor.
Playstation 5: 1440p 120hz works wonderfully. it also outputs 2160p (4k) 60hz but in my opinion it doesn't worth it. Stick with 1440p. Also, HDR works too, i didn't like it in any device because it's extremely bright and looks pale, but you can try it if you want. Movies and games look beautiful without it anyway.
Wii with HDMI adapter: I tried this one just to see how it handles low resolutions and the result is actually impressive. it does look pixelated of course, but better than an average monitor or HDTV, but never better than a CRT TV/monitor.

Reviewed in Mexico on July 25, 2023
- Good budget 1440 high refresh rate gaming monitor
- 165hz when tested on UFO test
-Hardware components are solid for the price
- Good picture quality for the price point
-Appears to work with Gsync on some games and Nvidia pendulum test
Cons:
-Response time is not as advertised. I'm getting about 5ms (MPRT) when tested on UFO test. (if you read up on this, its pretty common among monitor manufactures).
-Did not display properly out of the box, required some troubleshooting (outlined below)
-Significant Blacklight bleed, this is unfortunately common among these types of monitors. However, in my subject opinion, it does not affect its real world use or image quality in games. However when you put it on an entirely black screen you will see blacklight bleed around the edges.
- VA panel technology
Troubleshooting tips: When I unboxed the monitor and connected it to my GPU with DisplayPort it looked terrible. It had this incredible high brightness white hue washout. It was not possible to adjust this at first. It was obvious something was wrong.
After several restarts, it eventually became an orange hue (very warm tint). I'm not exactly sure how I fixed it, but I did the below and it has been working flawsly now for 2 weeks with no issues after my initial troubleshooting in the first 24 hours.
- Connected the USB cable that came with the monitor to my PC. Left it connected by Hardwire like this for about 24 hours
-Downloaded the Gigabyte OSD software and let it update
-Used the Microsoft windows color management, color calibration tool and followed the prompts.
-Used the Microsoft Windows HDR calibration tool
-Checked for driver updates with Gigabyte and Nvidia (my GPU)
-Restarted
Somehow, something I did worked. So if the picture and color do not look right out of the box do not despair, you might be able to troubleshoot it like I did and end up with a perfectly fine monitor. I bought this via Amazon warehouse at a significant discount. I'm guessing someone turned it on, saw what I initially saw and returned it, but it was totally fixable with a little patience and adjusting. Everything looked brand new when I got it and it came in the manufacture box.
