LG 27GQ50F-B 27 Inch Full HD (1920 x 1080) Ultragear Gaming Monitor with 165Hz and 1ms Motion Blur Reduction, AMD FreeSync Premium and 3-Side Virtually Borderless Design

I tried to order the same monitor that I already had from a few years ago. It seems like a lot of the tech and specs are the same. It will probably work just fine. I am just a bit disappointed by obvious cheep moves by LG. It came with a cheep looking HDMI cable instead of the DisplayPort cable the old one came with. The stand is so cheep looking and is not nearly as adjustable. It is being held on by 2 small screws. The height does not adjust. It looks like they moved the power conversion into the plug itself, which makes it not play nice on my power strip. It is big and bulky and it wont fit next to other plugs.

Refresh rate is as advertised but the color depth is terrible. Dark areas in both videos and games look horrendous. It looks similar to a display whenever you install a video card without the drivers on Windows. Ironically, I first noticed the issue by looking at the very product images on this page for this monitor. The photo of the powered off monitor looks like someone created it with water colors using only 10 shades of black. Also looking for drivers was a small adventure. It comes with a CD that only has a manual that mostly contains safety precautions and maintenance. When you go to LGs website and enter the exact model it says this product is not found (although the search suggestions has it listed [what the heck]). I have to google search which takes me to what appears to be an Australian variant of the software and downloads page. From there I found the drivers and OSD software. The software does not seem to play nice with your monitor if you made any adjustments. It will give you random errors about not able to make any changes. Random because if you repeat the same adjustments as before they will suddenly work. I would recommend this monitor if you are strictly using this for competitive play as the Freesync feature is handy and it does go up to 144 frames if your graphics card can push it. I checked all my settings including color depth and bcp (I could not find if this monitor is 8 or 6 bcp) on my AMD control panel. I also have a 2nd monitor attached to the same graphics card that has no issues with color.

This monitor is a life saver. There is virtually no glare, customizable response times, and multiple different options for different games. The crosshair feature adds an extreme advantage and is so easy to use. Highly recommend and will use this product endlessly.

I got this monitor because I was upgrading my whole setup. I am almost complete with my PC build, so I was using this monitor on my previous computer equipped with a 1050 ti. Regardless of the old 1050 ti, I can still run up to 300 frames on VALORANT, with low settings. The 144hz is so smooth and is a gigantic upgrade from the previous 60hz. The colors are also amazing for a TN panel and the viewing angles are good too. I dont like many of the presets, so I just stick to the FPS preset because it looks the best. It is very easy to navigate through the menu. I was stumped at first, looking where to change the refresh rate. I remembered to go to NVIDIA Control Panel. Dont forget that step guys! I am using HDMI currently, so I cant get 1ms response time, but it is still very fast and responsive. I will be using my newly purchased DP cable when my PC is complete.

I have been using this monitor for two months. It is working good. And the price is affordable price. But one thing is that the brightness too high for me. So, if your eyes are sensitive under bright light I would recommend you to adjust the brightness to 0. Overall, it is good product.

I bought this monitor because I recently purchased an Xbox Series X, and, after purchasing another monitor realized you cannot access 120hz on a 144hz monitor through its HDMI ports. There arent many monitors that DO do this, so its important to do your research. This monitor does allow you to access the 120fps your next gen console provides through HDMI, and is a great get for the price (although I believe the price has gone up from when I got it for $179.99).

Arrived in perfect condition, no dead pixels, no scratches, no dents. It was very easy to unpack and assemble. Everything works as expected and it comes with some nice additional features such as on-screen cross hairs, response time adjustments, and all the color options you could imagine. Would definitely recommend for someone who doesnt need to game in 4k.

I purchased 2. overall, pleased. a couple weeks ago one has been giving me fits and now has stopped working. wont be detected and wont read signal. i have switched 3 HDMI chords. still reads 0Hz. can I return it and get a new one?

Purchased back in April of 2022 (About a year ago), and it already has a dead pixel

I put a Mac Mini on the back Vesa mount and have my Xbox in front. The screen looks great using both and I love how big the screen is without being cumbersome. The only minor issue I have is the controls. Takes a button press and a joystick push to shut the screen off. Sometimes other actions are detected instead. Very minor, especially since I set the auto-off and I can just leave it alone.
