Competitive gaming display

The 27 inch OMEN 27qz targets players who need a 165 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms GtG response time for fast-paced titles. Its WQHD resolution of 2560 x 1440 delivers sharp detail on an IPS panel with wide viewing angles. The monitor covers 99 percent sRGB and 95 percent DCI-P3 for accurate colour work. It is not suited for buyers who want 4K pixel density or higher refresh rates.

Straightforward PC and console setup

Two HDMI ports and one DisplayPort allow quick switching between a computer and consoles without cable swapping. The unit has passed over 140 compatibility tests to reduce connection issues. AMD FreeSync support helps eliminate tearing when paired with a compatible graphics card. Builders who require USB-C video input or built-in KVM switching will need a different model.

WQHD panel limits at 165 Hz

The 2560 x 1440 resolution balances detail and GPU load but cannot match 4K sharpness for media editing. HDR brightness peaks at 400 nits, which meets entry-level HDR400 requirements but falls short of brighter HDR standards. The 165 Hz ceiling is fixed; the panel does not support overclocking beyond that rate. Users needing higher dynamic range or faster motion clarity should consider other options.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 165 Hz refresh rate is active after setup?

Open the OSD menu using the monitor buttons and confirm the refresh rate reads 165 Hz; then check your GPU control panel to ensure 165 Hz is selected for the DisplayPort or HDMI input.

Which cables are included and what must I buy separately?

The monitor ships with a power cable and at least one video cable (typically DisplayPort or HDMI); if your setup needs a second HDMI for a console, purchase an extra HDMI cable.

Should I choose this 27-inch WQHD model or a different capacity?

This is the only capacity offered — a 27-inch panel at 2560 × 1440 resolution with 165 Hz, 1 ms GtG, 99 % sRGB, 95 % DCI-P3 and 400 nits brightness.
