does the LG 27GR75Q-B use the same panel?

[@MouseLab]

About 2 years ago I bought a monitor after watching one of your reviews and since then your videos have improved a lot, looking super professional. Keep up the amazing work 😄

[@Ladioz]

I bought the Mobiuz EX 2510 because of him. He's a good guy

[@zohebrehman5142]

I'd love to see you review 27GR75Q as it seems like a good 1440p 165hz monitor. It's also relatively cheaper than the competition.

[@mayankchopra1586]

[@gigamarv]

Thank you very much for the video and the comparison to the AW2723DF! ❤

[@shusui9665]

this lg monitor or the aw2723df?

[@ProjectLiger]

Nah I never comment on tech videos but you including the recommended settings because I just bought this monitor today deserves a like and follow! Great job man

[@KrustyCrout0n]

Don't want to be that guy, but how is the monitor? Do you have any issues with it?

[@ProjectLiger]

@@KrustyCrout0n not a single issue since I came to this video. 10/10 for gaming and work. Still highly recommend. I got it from Best Buy on sale for 350 (normally 500) and I can’t find anything remotely better for 350 so if it goes on sale again, grab it.

Nice review ,but you forgot to mention hdmi 2.1 support -bandwith in comparison with the alienware ,and if it worth it for console gaming for 1440p 120fps with vrr enabled

[@frickenwicked]

Can you elaborate? Does it support HDMI 2.1 for consoles?

[@Kyle6227]

⁠@@frickenwickedaccording to Amazon and some other websites I’ve seen, it supports HDMI 2.1. It should support consoles. Keep in mind that the current consoles are capped at 120hz so getting 240hz is overkill (unless you have a PC you’re using as well, then get 240hz by all means, but if you’re solely using the monitor for your console, stick with a 120hz or 144hz monitor).

I've been waiting for this one!!!

[@testchannel66]

It’s 350 on amazon rn. Really eye-balling the Oled variant. I have the hardware to run 4k even. But shoot, for half the price I’m in between if I should go Oled which obviously looks better. Currently on 1080p 240hz. Wish I had a side by side comparison! You own both. Do you think it’s worth 400 dollars more? I play cod and rocket league. But would like to have a good monitor to show family photos etc.

[@03Edgar]

for 800 its not worth I got one and returned it. Oled is still to new IPS is seasoned already. Save your money and get this or the MSI 240hz

I got lucky and got this monitor from Lg directly for $299. They had it on sale for $350 last weekened, I think it was some sort of new release sale, and then I found a coupon for an extra 20 percent off. Arrives today, looking forward to getting it set up!

[@arctic_void]

Can we get a review on the new AOC 25g3zm? It's a very budget 240hz VA monitor that really surprised reviewers by solving most VA issues. I personally switched to it about a month ago, from an IPS, and I'm pleasantly surprised

[@estevaoang]

only saw dodgy reviews of this monitor, it has considerable ghosting against ips?

[@benjaminro341]

What country are you from? Here in finland we have not gotten many 240hz 1440p non oled options.

[@FlowGoesYT]

For me both this LG 27GR83Q-B and the Gigabyte M27Q X are available (albeit Gigabyte being a bit more expensive). Out of these 2 which one should I go for? I can afford both, I'm just looking for the better bang for buck for competitive gaming.

[@KevinOdin]

If you exclude the price factor, and I play a lot of FPS games and do paperwork, would I be better off with the LG 27GR83Q or the AW2723DF from Alien?

[@06_HKN]

LG!

[@ylx]

fs alienware, higher refresh rate, better build quality, and smaller bezels. But if price was a concern, the LG is wayyy cheaper and a better option for its price point

Thanks. Would you recommend this over the msi g274qpx at $50 dollars more?

[@O.Shawabkeh]

Had you been nearby I'd lend you my new LG 27GR75Q. Elegant, quality design (getting rid of LED bar is most welcome). Early impression it's a beautiful sRGB display (1440p/165hz), sharp enough for text (but worse than Dell UD27HM13). Default colors are fine without tuning. Running contrast/brightness around 50. I'm so glad I didn't go with the Oled.

[@sammy34719]

Bro can you please tell me ​​​ I'm confused between LG 27GR75Q and M27Q ( Rev 2.0) ......... And I have another option LG 27GN800 can you tell me which should I finally buy I'm soo confused and by the way love from Australia

[@O.Shawabkeh]

@@sammy34719 both LGs seems 8-bit color, which I prefer and gives more natural color. The GB 27Q seems a wide-gamut, which renders a bit more saturated colors. My personal opinion regard the 27GR75Q is it's a good buy. Zero regrets from my side as a casual gamer and reader. Although for reading it's decent enough. But there's noticeable IPS glow in total black, in case that's a top priority for you (but in games blacks are fine enough for me). The whites are white enough, overall the colors are beautiful and natural to my liking. Hope you make the right choice and become happy with your purchase.

[@senormuffin6765]

Between this and the lg gp850-b, which one should I get? The big difference is that this his 240hz, but is it worth?

[@PortableMediaReviews]

Just picked one up from Best Buy this past week, using it mainly for office purposes with MacOS. I have noticed, though, that whites look a bit grainy/fuzzy or whatever. Hard to describe.. is this normal? I’m just wondering if it’s the matte cover over the display that’s causing it.

[@Tectosaurus]

Yup, it's the matte coating

[@akaChriss4L]

When comparing against the 27GP850 (retail 499$ as well) - you'll get almost double refresh rate but also much better contrast ratio. Most of the 27GP850 models were around 850:1 contrast ratio, and this new model being around 1000:1 - 1100:1. Pretty cool Can't decide between this monitor or the 27GR95QE....

[@SIGNALacquired]

Get the 27GR95QE OLED monitor for gaming and watching videos, because OLED is good for this. Get the 27GR83Q IPS monitor for other text-heavy, photos and stuff that is static for long periods of time, because less burn-in happens on IPS.

[@kpg10]

Almost double refresh rate? Damn your maths are bad.

[@kellmustbedestroyed]

i need help deciding between this LG and the AW2723DF. i’m worried about LG’s over saturation but i don’t like AW’s backlight bleeding

[@saturnotaku]

If you're in the US, the 27GR83Q regularly goes on sale for $350, which it is as of the time I'm writing this at Best Buy, Amazon, or direct from LG. At that price, it's a no-brainer, IMO.

[@BenyaminLorit]

Is it possible for you to get your hands on the Acer Nitro VG271U M3BMIIPX? It's the cheapest 27" 1440p 180Hz monitor I've seen in my country (like seriously, a mere $210 if converted to USD) but seeing as it's very recently released, I can't seem to find proper information about it, much less in-depth coverage like yours.

[@thiennguyen0323]

Just a heads up for those wanting to take the vrr plunge. It won't work flawlessly in all games especially some older games. Mainly you get screen flashing and sometimes scanlines. It's still an emerging tech without a solid industry wide standard. Thankfully if your gpu is compatible with hdmi vrr that works much better overall than either brands vrr tech.
