Z-EDGE UG27Q 27" 165Hz Curved QHD Monitor

The Z-EDGE UG27Q is a 27-inch curved gaming monitor with a 1500R radius VA panel. It delivers a 2560 x 1440 QHD resolution at a 165Hz refresh rate via DisplayPort 1.2 and 144Hz over HDMI 2.0. A 1ms MPRT response time and FreeSync compatibility target smooth motion in fast-paced titles.

Suits competitive gamers wanting high refresh QHD

This monitor fits players who prioritise a 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time at 1440p resolution on a curved VA screen. Buyers who need a higher 240Hz or 280Hz refresh rate for esports, or who require a flat IPS panel for colour-critical work, should consider other models.

Deciding spec: 165Hz at 1440p over DisplayPort

The single specification that determines suitability is the 165Hz maximum refresh rate available only through the DisplayPort 1.2 connection. If your graphics card and games cannot exceed 144 frames per second at 2560 x 1440, the extra headroom goes unused and a 144Hz panel may suffice.
