DELL G2724D 27-Inch QHDGaming Monitor

The Dell G2724D is an entry-level gaming monitor with a 27-inch screen and 1440p resolution. It has a 165Hz refresh rate, and it's designed for gamers who need a budget-friendly yet reliable gaming monitor. That said, it's hard to find through most retailers, but you can often find it on sale directly through Dell's website. It's newer than the popular Dell S2721DGF, and it sits below Dell's Alienware lineup that features similar 1440p options with more features, like the Dell Alienware AW2724DM. It's rather barebones in terms of features as it doesn't have a USB hub or even an audio jack, but you still have access to some of Dell's gaming features, like different virtual crosshairs. It also has FreeSync variable refresh rate (VRR) support, and NVIDIA certifies it as G-SYNC as well.The Dell G2724D is decent for PC gaming. It supports all common VRR formats to reduce screen tearing, and its 165Hz refresh rate is high enough for most gamers. It has low input lag for a responsive feel, and it has a consistently fast response time across its entire refresh rate range, but there's still some blur with fast-moving objects. While it provides a smooth feel while gaming, it has limited picture quality as it has low contrast that makes blacks look gray, and its local dimming feature that only turns on in HDR performs terribly.
