Bottom line: The GIGABYTE GS27QC 27" 165Hz 1440P Curved Gaming Monitor: 2560x1440 on a 27-inch 1500R curved VA panel for an immersive view; main trade-off: 1ms rating is MPRT, not GtG, so pixel transitions are slower than the headline figure.

Manufacturer description

The GIGABYTE GS27QC is a 27-inch curved gaming monitor that pairs 2560 x 1440 resolution with a 165Hz refresh rate. You can overclock it to 170Hz. The native 1500R VA panel wraps the image toward your field of view, so the picture feels more immersive than on a flat 27-inch screen. For fast games, the GS27QC is rated at 1ms MPRT, and AMD FreeSync Premium reduces tearing and stutter when your frame rate changes. The VA panel has a 4000:1 contrast ratio, so dark scenes look deeper than on typical IPS or TN monitors. It also covers 108% of sRGB with 8-bit color depth, and it supports HDR10…

SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored GIGABYTE GS27QC 27" 165Hz 1440P Curved Gaming Monitor using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the gaming monitors category. Gigabyte's gaming monitors lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.
