27" Fast IPS Gaming Monitor

The Pixio PX279 Wave Purple is a 27 inch gaming monitor built around a Fast IPS panel with a 1920 x 1080 resolution. It delivers a 240Hz refresh rate and a 1ms GTG response time for competitive play. Adaptive Sync support keeps frame delivery smooth across variable frame rates. The cabinet features a purple finish with a 3 sided frameless bezel design.

Check DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.0 Ports

Verify that your graphics card provides a DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.0 output to drive the full 240Hz refresh rate at 1080p. The monitor accepts digital video through both connector types. Ensure your operating system and drivers are configured for the native 1920 x 1080 resolution and the target high refresh rate. Confirm desk space suits a 27 inch frameless cabinet.

Suits Competitive FHD Players.

This monitor suits players who prioritise 240Hz motion clarity at 1080p for fast shooters and esports titles. The Fast IPS panel covers 110.26% sRGB and 93.5% DCI-P3 for vivid colour in games and media. Buyers who want higher pixel density for detailed work or immersive single player worlds should look at higher resolution panels. Users needing built-in speakers or USB hubs will need separate peripherals.

Questions about this item

Does the PX279 Wave Purple include cables or only the monitor and stand?

The box contains the 27" monitor, its stand, and a DisplayPort cable; an HDMI cable is not included and must be purchased separately if you prefer that connection.

Should I use the DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.0 port to reach the 240Hz refresh rate at 1080p?

Both DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.0 support the full 240Hz at 1920 x 1080, so you can use whichever cable matches your graphics card output.

How does the 1ms GTG response time actually look in fast shooters on this 240Hz panel?

The 1ms grey-to-grey speed combined with 240Hz refresh keeps motion sharp and reduces ghosting, giving clear visibility of quick crosshair movements in competitive titles.
