About this product
The GIGABYTE M27U is a 27-inch 4K UHD gaming monitor with a 160Hz refresh rate and HDR support. It features an IPS LCD panel with 400 cd/m² brightness and a 1ms response time. The monitor includes HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort, USB-C, and USB 3.0 inputs, along with built-in speakers, USB hub, and support for Picture-in-Picture. It is wall-mountable and has a slim bezel design.
Our take
The M27U is a feature-packed 4K monitor with a buttery 160Hz refresh rate. The IPS panel offers great colors and the 400 cd/m² brightness makes HDR content pop. The inclusion of HDMI 2.1 is perfect for next-gen consoles. The built-in speakers are acceptable for casual use, and the USB hub is handy. The only downside is the 1000:1 contrast ratio, which is typical for IPS. At $200, this is an incredible value for a 4K 160Hz monitor.
