Gigabyte M27U review
The new Gigabyte M27U monitor targets video gamers, but not exclusively. Users running multiple apps will have plenty of space on the 27-inch IPS panel’s 3,840 x 2,160 resolution. High resolution can also be a bit of a hardship at times because it requires gear that can support native resolution and yet playback at a good quality level. A maximum refresh rate of 160 Hz is supported with the M27U. One millisecond (MPRT) or five milliseconds (gray-to-gray) is the response time according to Gigabyte. Supported is FreeSync Premium, which aims to successfully stop tearing.
A maximum brightness of 400 cd/m is specified. Despite having DisplayHDR 400 certification, the IPS panel’s 1,000:1 contrast ratio makes it doubtful that it will be especially useful for displaying high-contrast content at an OLED’s level. 95% of the DCI-P3 colour space is covered, according to Gigabyte. It advertises a number of gaming features, including night vision, zoom, highlighting dark spots in the image, and a crosshair display.
Image signals can be input into the monitor using USB-C, DisplayPort 1.4, and HDMI 2.1. A USB hub including three USB 3.2 ports is available for accessories and storage, and USB PD, however limited to 18 watts, is supported. Finally, two speakers each with a 3 watt output are mounted.
