This is the kind of review I like to see, UFO test with cyan background I just wish you did the test with faster moving UFO but will take ur word for it I am buying this soon as it drops to $400 for black friday.

[@ag7936]

To get rid of scan lines, change picture mode, also the fastest overdrive mode is standard 0% ghosting 0% error rate, 90 percent in window 2.4 ms avarage transition. This panel is faster then anything out there including TN, IPS & VA panels, the only exception is OLED, Zowe dayac + and one other IPS panel

[@samir1602]

So response mode setting standard is beter than fastest and extreme?

[@silkytekkerz5791]

​@samir1602 is this true ?? I have mine set on extreme

very late response but yes. standard is the best for this monitor, ive seen multiple tests and all point to standard being the all round safest and actually best performing option.@@silkytekkerz5791

[@aboveaura4817]

Since this is the top comment about this issue I will post here what solved the scanline problem for me, this was posted by FerreiraM32 on the Rtings page of this monitor. Hi. I have done extensive testing with my G6’s settings and my colorimeter over the last year and i recommend the following: In SDR: Brightness: 11 (this is what i need to get the 100 cd/m², but you can adjust to your personal preference). Local dimming: Off (doesn’t work well in SDR, raises black level and creates blooming and flickering). Color Space: Auto (this will lock the color gamut pretty close to the sRGB, making colors not look oversaturated while not in HDR). Gamma: BT.1886 +2 (this actually makes my monitor closer to the 2.2 gamma curve than the “2.2” option itself, but i don’t know if this varies between units, you can keep it at the default setting if you want). Response time: standard. Adaptive Sync and VRR Control: on I strongly recommend you DON’T change anything else, specially white balance, since the varies a lot between units. My G6 has a completely different calibration setting from RTing’s review unit, and i was able to calibrate the white balance and the 6-axis only because i have a colorimeter. Leave anything not mentioned above at default. Dynamic contrast, shadow detail, dynamic brightness, anything with “dynamic” or “enhanced” in its name turned off or at 0 value. In HDR: Brightness: max (required to achieve the peak brightness) Local dimming: Standard (required to achieve the peak brightness, but “High” raises the black level by a lot). Color Space: Native (to unlock the full wide color gamut of the display. Anything else: default. Don’t copy the calibration settings or the ICC profile from RTings or anybody else. They don’t apply to every unit.

Ive had this monitor for a few months now and im very happy with it. I got it for my PS5. When i first got it out of the box and set it up,it looked really bad! The colours were saturated,too bright and too dark,messed about in the settings but it looked awful. Even though it has HDMI 2.1 it didnt support VRR! After some research,i learned that you have to download the latest firmware 1520.9 and put it on a USB stick, then insert it into one of the USB ports in the monitor. Did all that,went to the support option in the settings menu and clicked on update software,it then showed me the USB and i clicked on that, then the rest was automatic. The new firmware fixed all the issues including VRR and the colours were much better optimised. I then proceeded to mess around and tinker with the settings for the next 2 days,testing with multiple diffrent games until i could figure out how it all worked, and make it look as nice as possible. When it comes to PS4 games,if its running at 30 fps then its gonna look really bad very sticky,you can kind of fix this with the game motion plus option, which adds a bit of input lag but its not noticeable if youre gonna play a RPG! 60 fps games look great . The game mode setting has a faster and extreme option for input lag,i like using extreme,it really does make a difference. My PS5 is running at 1440p HDR VRR ALLM. HDR was a bit long to get right but i managed to get a nice vibramt picture in the end. Im very happy with my G65b,,i can play my FPS games at 120fps with 1440p im lovin it. I recommend this if anyones thinking of buying. The only downside is the set up,too many hoops to jump through just to get it right. Its great for PS5!!

It's extremely unacceptable that a $700 display is having these types of issues. I've already returned mine. I ended up dropping $900 on the new Benq 1440p 240hz display. I think this will be well worth the additional capital.

The effort and information on your review is really impressive! Great work!

just got this monitor because of your review and i am so overwhelmingly impressed with the products quality for price everything worked as anticipated straight out of the box with minimal setup - the remote is kinda cool too the only downside i have to note so far is two things, you have to use an adapter to use a vesa mount and it does not seem the best (not most peoples use-case to have their own mount) and secondly the only option for 1 displayport input (which again for my use-case because i use a dock for my work pc ~ again super tiny niche use-case)

I tried GPU setting etc but the windows 11 and the tool smashed it. Even games look far far superior in HDR auto than it ever did on my windows 10 setup. This screen actually made me update to windows 11 :D Ive pulled 607 nits on this btw :D Got the screen running on a radeon 6800 and it looks amazing. Most of your screen settings them selfs where helpful. Highly recommend auto HDR and HDR calibration tool if your using windows. I think most fun ive had with it so far is playing apex legends at 240hz. Games so well made now that my setup can really test this monitor. Oh and I also dont see scanlines anymore.

[@NedimTabakovic]

How does this compares with Neo G7-8 in real life? Is 1440p vs 4K that much noticeable on 32”? Is double price justifiable?

[@therealkillac82]

4k runs at a slower hertz then 1440p, so the smoothest of the video maybe noticeable but the seeing it before you do in first person shooters will be missing (the faster the hertz, the faster you can see your opponent, that's why everyone always thinks PC players are cheating...lol). And not to mention distance from the screen. If you have the graphic power, go for it. If you tired of getting beamed on COD, don't... lol

[@rickgear2579]

I really wish you would have included your HDR calcibration settings. I have this in HDR mode and everything is so damn washed out. The white are brutally bright and drowning out everything else. Looks absolutely awful and I can't get any of the settings to look right.

Thank you for the review. I am here because it's on sale for $427.00 on amazon and this review just helped me pull the trigger.

Ended up canceling the BestBuy order because Amazon dropped the price to 319.99 for the 32". I've been using it for 2 days now and love this monitor. I returned the G50D for this.

So is this the S27BG650EU or S27BG650EUHEX ? One is IPS, one is VA.

[@tarekjeha6332]

Is it good for PS5 gaming

[@Minarreal]

Seems like we'll have the swansong of VA panels in the monitor segment not too far in the future. This looks pretty good, with the exception of the prices and the scanlines, I definitely get annoyed when I see those things in a brand new monitor.

I've owned this monitor for a few months now and play on both pc and ps5. At first it wasn't fully compatible with the ps5 even though it has hdmi 2.1 and im happy to say a few updates later this monitor is now fully compatible with the ps5.

[@TheIronCurtaiin]

I’m about to pull the trigger on this monitor right now. It’s on sale for $299. The 27 inch version. Can’t wait ! Edit: got mine. It’s an amazing monitor. You just need to play around with the settings when you get it, mine came off a little bit. But after tweaking a few settings and making some preference changes the monitor preforms like a monster !! No input lag at all. Very crisp images, runs full 120 fps in 4k on the PS5 which is exactly why I bought it. 10/10 would recommend. Also, the set up out the box was very easy.

[@kramlam6558]

What is best pc for this monitor?

[@yoi2921]

Scanlines is a deal breaker for me, it seems every one of these monitor series whether its the G6, G7, G8, G9 and with the NEO variants all has them... I have eyes for detail, and when I notice them, I can never un-notice them. It seems with their upcoming OLED variants for their G8 and G9, they have rectified this scanline issue. Seems to be limitation with their VA panels and glad I didn't decide to buy any of them, because if I am spending big money, I expect the screen to be flawless, which means no scanlines, no dead/stuck/bright pixels, no flickering, no OSD software bugs, etc ,etc...

[@IndyMiraaga]

If you think these VA panels were expensive, just wait until you see their OLED prices for equal specs...

[@WintersCharles]

I don't really care about the OS. However, I want to buy a 240hz 1440p panel (which is not TN) and thank to some price drop in a local shop this is currently the cheapest option (well cheapest if I don't count bad panels). Is it still worth it?

[@Kumarsamaksha]

few issues you can order and check for yourself. Otherwise spec wise it's packing

[@PeterMc89]

@@imohbalu The G7 is certified for G-Sync compatibility, the G6 is not. The G6 has built in speakers (to go with its aforementioned "smart display" features no doubt), the G7 does not. The G6 has ethernet and wifi connectivity built in (again, so it can be used as a "smart display" without a PC), the G7 does not. The G7 has two DP and one HDMI, and the G6 is the reverse, and the G6's HDMI ports are version 2.2 versus version 2 on the G7.

09:04: 7.000 Kelvin too warm? I would say that number is high and therefore colder. Did you mix that up?
