In addition to the Gigabyte Aorus FO32U2, another new OLED gaming monitor from the Taiwanese company has appeared. The Gigabyte FO27Q2 measures 27 inches diagonally and has a QD-OLED panel with WQHD resolution (2560 x 1440 pixels) at a maximum of 240 Hz. The device is certified with ClearMR 13000 and DisplayHDR True Black 400, ensuring high moving image sharpness and solid HDR quality.
According to the specs, you can also expect 10-bit color depth, 99 percent DCI-P3, a 0.03 ms grayscale change, a contrast ratio of 1,500,000:1 and a brightness of 250 cd/m² (SDR, 100 percent APL) or 1,000 cd/m² (HDR, 3 percent APL). The Delta-E value, which reflects the precision of the color representation, is less than 2. FreeSync Premium Pro is responsible for tearing free gaming sessions. Users can initiate firmware updates for the monitor.
The Tactical Switch lets you switch from the native resolution to a 24-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) image to optimize frame rate or input lag. You also don’t have to do without a black stabilizer, a crosshair overlay, or picture-in-picture or picture-by-picture modes. Gigabyte FO27Q2 has two internal 5-watt speakers. The KVM switch eliminates the need to swap cables when connecting multiple devices.
The Gigabyte FO27Q2 includes two HDMI 2.1 inputs, one DisplayPort 1.4, a USB 3.2 hub, a headphone output, and a microphone input. Additionally, USB-C supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode and 18-watt Power Delivery. Furthermore, this 240Hz 1440p gaming monitor offers excellent ergonomics, featuring tilt, rotation, height adjustment, pivot, blue light filtering, and a VESA mount (100 x 100 mm).
