GIGABYTE G27QC 27 165Hz 1440P Curved Gaming Monitor, 2560 x 1440 VA 1500R Display, 1ms (MPRT) Response Time, 92% DCI-P3, HDR Ready, FreeSync Premium, 1x Display Port 1.4

we installed when our gaming table is here, and we noticed there is something weird thing on the screen, after we plug in then we found the screen already cracked ! Gosh, luckily, we still got the box. MUST RETURN!

Curved screen is cool and good for peripheral vision. Easy to set up with another monitor for an expanded window into the Digital World. Neuromancer lives.

Great picture quality. However, randomly goes black reporting no input. Same for all DVI/HDMI ports. Power cycling helps, sometimes not. Judging by other comments, this is not an infrequent occurrence.

I dont write a lot of reviews but this one is to help people. The biggest most important problem. THIS SCREEN WILL BURN IN. I bought this monitor as a replacement in a pinch. Price was right and it was the same size. I swapped my bad monitor out with this one made a few adjustments and was good to go. I have been using the same Microsoft background for a decade. Never had a problem. After about 2 weeks I was in Photoshop and I noticed my desktop background in PS. I thought for some reason PS had some translucent option enabled or something. No I noticed on every application. I managed to get most of the burn it to go away using a pixel stimulator on YouTube. I changed desktops to something very dark. Then days later I notice the same issue with some TEXT documents that have been on my desktop for years. The white documents had burned in. Again I attempted the fix as best I can. I have had to install various programs to keep the monitor from burning in as well as swapped all cables. I currently have a program that makes my desktop icons disappear in 20 seconds, and a program that forces a pixel stimulation for 2 seconds every few hours. I finally got ahold of RMA and they said they would replace the monitor but this should not have happened on such a modern day monitor. I have a monitor that is 15 years old that has never experience burn in. Also. The power management for the monitor is borked. When you switch inputs the monitor is considered disconnected. So if you have multiple monitors all your icon shift everywhere as it thinks the monitor is not there. This also occurs during a power shut down with a time out. When the monitor comes back on. All your icons might shift everywhere. For the price monitors now. spend a little more. I know that 165hz sounds tempting as the competition is 144hz, but just stick to a better quality monitor at 144hz. You will have few problems.

This monitor is great for the price. FSU Bc is a bit iffy Bc if your frame rate is too low you’ll experience flickering. When gsync is off the monitor performs flawlessly. That’s Bc it’s not gsync certified. However for a 1440p 165htz monitor I cannot complain and am happy with my purchase.

the monitor is decent but im having some trouble with getting good settings for the monitor. the freesync flickers a lot, the monitor sometimes bugs out and it resets. the va panel response time is really not that good and the input lag is noticeable for me coming from a 1080p 75hz 1ms TN panel. overall not pleased with this monitor, but i threw the box away so i think im stuck with it.

Great product love this monitor

So the reason this gets not a 5 is cause of the auto brightness feature that comes out of the box. This cant be changed until you download the latest driver for the monitor from gigabyte and after that it fixes itself. Also g-sync does work but like I said mine needed to be updated before that. For the value I believe this is one amazing monitor but gigabyte has already made a better monitor thats now at 170hz and is the same for better picture performance. So go and check that one out, instead of this older model.

Had this monitor for a month and now there is a dead pixel.

I like the Size and the VA but the ms seems way slower then 1ms I get a fair bit of ghosting and green tracing if I play at native and 165hz had to drop to 144 and set to a speed setting vs balance. Takes forever to fine tune your colors it’s a very dark initial setting perhaps a heavy OC for what the panel actually supports.
