Dell G2724D Review - An Excellent Entry Level Gaming Monitor

The Dell G2724D is an entry-level gaming monitor with a 27-inch screen and 1440p resolution. It has a 165Hz refresh rate, and it's designed for gamers who need a budget-friendly yet reliable gaming monitor. That said, it's hard to find through most retailers, but you can often find it on sale directly through Dell's website. It's newer than the popular Dell S2721DGF, and it sits below Dell's Alienware lineup that features similar 1440p options with more features, like the Dell Alienware AW2724DM. It's rather barebones in terms of features as it doesn't have a USB hub or even an audio jack, but you still have access to some of Dell's gaming features, like different virtual crosshairs. It also has FreeSync variable refresh rate (VRR) support, and NVIDIA certifies it as G-SYNC as well.

I bought this model, and I can only say that it has an excellent image and uniformity. I love the semi-gloss coating, it greatly increases clarity. It doesn't cause headaches or eye strain, it's so good that I bought a 2 unit. Use for games and office. Better only going for an OLED, but I bought it at an excellent price for having a company.

Thank you for this review. This is an amazing budget 1440p monitor and one of the best options to use with a ps5. Supports VRR on ps5, excellent response times at 120hz and 60hz, good contrast for an IPS, good brightness. Goes on sale regularly for $300 CAD. You'll spend double that if you want 4K. Biggest downside is no audio jack, so you can't hook speakers to it. You can just use a headset on ps5 though.

This should take the place of the LG 27GP850 as the recommended budget friendly 27 inchi 1440p monitor. It's just better than the 27GP850 and it's better than the M27Q. The only reason I found out about this monitor is because the 27GP850 that everybody recommends went out of stock the day I wanted to buy it, so naturally I went on rtings recommended monitors article and found this as an alternative to the M27Q. It honestly should be the other way around since this monitor beats the M27Q in every regard and is cheaper than both the LG and the Gigabyte.

Really interesting to see this review :D Got this a while ago to replace the LG 27GP850 for gaming Happy with the decision for sure, the contrast and IPS glow on the LG monitor were a disaster. This actually makes games look nice enough to enjoy the visuals and the contrast helps with target acquisition in competitive play. Having it next to a Dell U3223QE for console gaming, office work and media consumption, works well. They compliment each other beautifully. G2724D = Shooters / competitive on pc U3223QE = Used for story games and such. Find the slow response time makes 60hz and lower look more smooth than on a fast display which helps with the type of console gaming I do and video playback.

​@@UwU-hg8dj There is quite a difference though it is not magic. Like, contrast is better on the U3223QE and so is the IPS glow, it's much better. Contrast is not better like a good VA panel would give you and IPS glow still exists. it's just a lot less noticeable. It is good enough to enjoy really dark scenes though. It's like.. most of the downsides of IPS are mitigated to a point where it works where IPS normally would not.

[@Buffinator1988]

Seeing unconfirmed reports online and in the Rtings review discussion thread that indicate some people are buying this monitor and receiving an inferior product (more than the expected panel to panel variance), perhaps due to panel swaps in different regions or in later manufacture runs?

Thanks for your video, man. You helped he choose the Dell G2724D. Got it last week 😁 It's PERFECT for the PS5 using Console Mode. The Adaptive Sync is flawless! However, you'll need an Ultra Fast HDMI cable ($16), as the original PS5 HDMI cable didn't work for VRR at 1440p. Forget about 4K, 1440p will be the sweet spot for years to come. Assembly is easy peasy. It looks awesome! I paid only CAD $229. Totally RECOMMEND it. 👍

I use DisplayPort and for some reason I only see "G-Sync Compatible" in the NVIDIA Control Panel and (according to NVIDIA Inspector overlay) in-game VRR being fully enabled when in HDR mode. With HDR disabled, I only see the NVCP "G-Sync" options but no "G-Sync Compatible" and the in-game (NVIDIA Inspector) VRR overlay shows "VRR Possible: NO" , "VRR Requested: NO" Does this mean "G-Sync" can only be used when putting the monitor in HDR mode? :#
