27" 4K 160Hz Fast IPS Gaming Monitor

This 27-inch UHD display runs at 3840 x 2160 and 160 Hz using a Fast IPS panel rated for 1 ms MPRT and 5 ms GtG. It targets competitive gamers and content creators who need high refresh rates with 95 % DCI-P3 coverage and VESA DisplayHDR 400 brightness of 400 cd/m². Buyers who want a curved ultrawide or a panel larger than 27 inches should look elsewhere.

Built-in KVM and USB-C Hub

The integrated KVM switch lets one keyboard and mouse control two systems through the monitor, while the USB-C port carries video, data and peripheral connectivity. Three downstream USB 3.2 Type-A ports and one upstream port turn the screen into a dock for accessories, reducing cable clutter on the desk. Systems without USB-C video alt-mode cannot use the single-cable docking feature.

Height-Adjustable Stand and VESA 100 Mount

The stand offers 130 mm of height travel and -5 ° to +20 ° tilt for ergonomic positioning, and the 100 x 100 mm VESA pattern supports monitor arms or wall brackets. Installation is straightforward: attach the stand base, connect the included HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4 and USB cables, then select the input. The panel has no built-in speakers, so an external audio solution is required for sound.

Questions about this item

How often will the USB-C KVM switch or the 3 USB 3.2 downstream ports need servicing?

The USB-C KVM and three USB 3.2 Type-A downstream ports are solid-state with no moving parts, so they do not require scheduled maintenance.

What limit appears first during a long 160 Hz 4K gaming session?

The 1,000:1 contrast ratio and 400 cd/m² peak brightness of the Fast IPS panel set the visible ceiling for HDR content before any thermal throttle occurs.

How loud or hot does the monitor get when it runs all day at 160 Hz?

The unit has no built-in speakers or active cooling fans, so audible noise is negligible; the 100–240 VAC power supply handles continuous 160 Hz operation within normal office temperatures.
