Gigabyte is launching a new, high-speed monitor designed for console gaming. It boasts a response time of just 0.5 milliseconds, a refresh rate of 320 Hz and fully covers the sRGB color space.

Gaming Monitor

The Gigabyte MAG 274QPF X32 is a new monitor that is a Rapid IPS panel rather than an OLED panel. Rapid IPS offers significant advantages for gaming and fast-moving content, combining the benefits of standard IPS (e.g. accurate colors and wide viewing angles) with faster response times and higher refresh rates. In this case, the MAG 274QPF has a refresh rate of 320 Hz and a 0.5 millisecond response time. It measures 27-inch diagonally and has a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440. Although not quite as sharp as a 4K panel, the hardware requirements are naturally lower. Adaptive Sync, which synchronizes the image output with the image display, is supported.

VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification is advertised, along with a peak brightness of 400 cd/m². However, the contrast ratio is only 1,000:1, which means that content with a high contrast ratio is unlikely to be displayed particularly convincingly. The panel is advertised as generating 129% sRGB color space coverage, while the Adobe RGB color space is covered at 95%.

The monitor can only receive video signals via DisplayPort 1.4a and HDMI 2.1, but not via USB-C. The Gigabyte MAG 274QPF X32 can be mounted on a wall bracket or monitor arm, but the included stand already supports height and tilt adjustments, as well as pivot mode. A console mode is available, and HDMI CEC is supported.

Information on price and availability is still pending.

The choice of ports is scarce. (Image source: MSI)

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

Growing up in regional Australia, I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study philosophy and anthropology. I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
