Those of you who follow the field of monitors have definitely heard of QD-OLED panels. Dell was among the first to bring them into the 27-inch screen class and add high refresh rates (360 Hz). The price was not friendly to buyers, but the first testers of new technology almost always whistle at the price. Since then, other manufacturers have woken up and the prices of such monitors are now falling. Last month, MSI presented its candidate, which is a good hundred cheaper than Dell's.

Now it's Gigabyte's turn. The Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3 (manufacturers are still not good at naming monitors) uses Samsung's third-generation QD-OLED panel. The resolution is 1440p, and the refresh rate, as in similar models, is 360 Hz. If you even want to achieve this kind of frequency in games, you will need a decent graphics card, and only in games like Doom Eternal, PUBG, Counter Strike and the like. The response time is super short, around 0.03 milliseconds, but the average will definitely be a bit higher.

Among the connections of the new monitor we find DisplayPort 1.4, VESA mount adapter, 3.5 mm headphone jack, USB Type-C, 2x HDMI 2.1, 3x USB 3.0. It supports the 99 % DCI-P3 color gamut and 10-bit color, if of course that matters to you at all when playing games. To protect the eyes, OLED care technology is integrated, which reduces harmful blue light.

The biggest fans of computer games do not swear by compromises. Especially with things like computer screens. Namely, the higher the screen refresh rate and the lower the delay time, the better the result when playing computer games. This is also the main reason why Gigabyte also decided to prepare, according to many, one of the best curved computer screens for modern and graphically rich games – Aorus FO27Q3.

The new Gigabyte Aorus FO27Q3 is already available in foreign markets. Its retail price is expected to be at the level of the competition, around 700-800 euros.
