Our Verdict

Gigabyte M27Q (rev. 1.0)

LG 27GP850-B/27GP83B-B

The Gigabyte M27Q (rev. 1.0) and the LG 27GP850-B/27GP83B-B are similar 1440p gaming monitors. The Gigabyte has extra productivity features like a USB-C port and KVM switch, making it the better choice if you need to connect different computers. However, the LG has a faster response time, leading to less motion blur with fast-moving objects.
