Description

Two modes: 4K sharpness or 320 Hz speed

In 4K mode the picture on a 27-inch screen is very sharp, and 160 Hz is enough for dynamic games too. Tactical Switch 2.0 changes the resolution quickly: in Full HD mode the refresh rate climbs to 320 Hz, which suits competitive titles. 95% DCI-P3 and 129% sRGB coverage deliver vivid colours, and FreeSync Premium and G-SYNC Compatible keep the image free of tearing with both AMD and NVIDIA cards.

Who this gaming monitor is for

Players who use both a PC and a games console: over HDMI 2.1 the monitor supports console gaming at 4K and 120 Hz. USB-C lets you connect a laptop and supply it with up to 15 W of power. There are no speakers, and headphones plug into the 3.5 mm jack. The fully adjustable stand helps set the screen at the right height for long gaming evenings.
