Great features for the price range!
It has a very good feature set for a mid range 1440p display. 170hz, fast response times and HDR (despite only being DIsplayHDR 400 certified) make great the display look and feel great.

Extraordinary QHD IPS monitor, BUT...
Very short summary. You've read the reviews.
This Monitor is excelent. Response times on this IPS panel allow for very good gaming performance and quality, and the included KVM switch is awesome for those of us that work from home, having your work laptop on one side, and your personal PC on the other.
1. NOTE that the KVM switches between two devices only: One connected through HDMI and DP, and the other (usually laptop) through USB-C. This means you must buy a USB-C to USB-C Gen 3.1 (10Gbps) cable, that is not included, AND your laptop has to have this capability as well.. so the switch is not as flexible as you'd think.
2. Yes, the panel is weird, as instead of using the much more common RGB subpixel layout, it uses that BGR one you've read so much about and how it makes text on the monitor blurry/hard to read. This, as for many others, was a big concern when buying, wondering whether it would affect me. Here's what I found: it varies from person to person. For me, setting it up for BGR in ClearType in Windows was more than enough. I can clearly see how text looks different than on my previous RGB-layout monitor, but for me, it wasn't a negative change. I see it as different, not worse. For some however, it seems to be a total deal-breaker as some report dizziness, can't properly read, or just plain that "different" text render does end up being negative for some.
This is one of those products you HAVE to test to see if it works for you. Personally, it did perfectly fine for me, and found it to be an EXCELLENT QHD IPS monitor. I cannot justify paying extra for the "higher-end" QHD monitors. I can tell, I also had one of the well-known LG 27GL850 / GN / GP, and can't really recommend it anymore over this one, being $100-$150 more.
I do knock a star off as I, along with thousands, cannot understand why Gigabyte decided to install the panel in a BGR sub-pixel order and cause all this ruckus and create an actual need for adjustments.Read full review

Best Value for a 165hz monitor at 27 inches I could find. Does the Job well.
The monitor does what is advertised. High refresh rate with good contrast and brightness.

Great monitor for the cost!
Very impressed with the performance considering its cost. Great 144hz performance and the built in KVM makes life so much easier to use this on both my personal PC and my work computer.
The only slight annoyance is the position of the KVM button - but certainly manageable.Read full review
