    OMEN 27 by HP 27 Inch Gaming Monitor QHD 165Hz 1ms NVIDIA G-SYNC (Black Aluminum)

    • Its a very well priced option for a large QHD monitor with good gaming features
    • Nice monitor with great clarity and great gaming on it
    • This is still a really amazing gaming experience overall with freesync enabled
    • Also runs at a 1MS GTG if you're someone who into competitive gaming
    • On paper, this is a great feature, even though the FreeSync range is rather limited compared to more expensive gaming monitors
    • If you want a monitor for fast action gaming, look elsewhere.
    • However it's terrible for gaming, especially competitive gaming
    • While the refresh rate is "low" by modern gaming standards, 1440p@75Hz Freesync looks great when playing FPS and driving games.
    • A good chunk of people in the PC gaming community, or at least those who contribute the most to the PC market (People with money and take competitive gaming seriously) have probably at minimum100hz refresh and 2 Ms response time
    • When playing movies that are not the highest resolution, they come out slightly grey and the blacks are no where near as accurate as with IPS monitors
    • The colors are not as good as with any of my other IPS monitors, its 8bit color depth is a massive downside and noticeable all the time
