27-inch 180 Hz IPS gaming panel

This 27-inch IPS monitor delivers Full HD resolution at 180 Hz with a 1 ms grey-to-grey response time. It supports FreeSync variable refresh and HDR10 colour at 400 nits brightness. Connectivity includes HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2 ports. The unit also integrates a USB hub, KVM switch and built-in speakers.

Competitive FHD players.

The 1920 x 1080 resolution suits fast-paced shooters and esports titles where frame rate matters most. Creative professionals who need higher pixel density for detailed image editing should consider a higher-resolution display. The 1000:1 static contrast ratio is typical for IPS panels and may not satisfy users seeking deeper blacks.

180 Hz refresh rate at Full HD

The headline specification is the 180 Hz refresh rate combined with 1920 x 1080 resolution on a 27-inch IPS panel. This pairing determines whether the monitor matches a graphics card capable of sustaining high frame rates at 1080p. Buyers targeting higher resolutions or lower refresh requirements should verify their GPU output matches this specification.

Questions about this item

Does my graphics card need to support HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2 to reach the 180 Hz refresh rate at 1920 x 1080?

Yes — connect a GPU with HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2 to drive the panel at its full 180 Hz and 1 ms GtG response.

Will FreeSync still activate if I keep an older GPU that only supports basic Adaptive-Sync?

FreeSync works over both HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2, so any compatible GPU using those ports can enable variable refresh on this monitor.

How can I verify the 400 nits brightness and HDR10 are active after setup?

Open the OSD, confirm HDR10 shows On, then run a test pattern — the meter should read near 400 nits peak white.
