About this product
The ViewSonic ELITE XG270QC is a 27-inch curved VA gaming monitor with 1440p resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, and 3ms response time (though specs also mention 1ms MPRT). It features FreeSync Premium Pro, VESA DisplayHDR 400, and 90% DCI-P3 coverage. Brightness is 550 cd/m². Connectivity includes DisplayPort, HDMI, and USB 3.0. It has built-in speakers and is wall-mountable.
Our take
The ViewSonic ELITE XG270QC is a solid mid-range gaming monitor. The 1440p 165Hz combo is great for competitive and immersive games. The VA panel offers strong contrast, and the 550 cd/m² brightness makes HDR 400 content look decent. Colors are punchy with 90% DCI-P3. The 3ms response time is okay but not the fastest; competitive players might notice some smearing. FreeSync Premium Pro works well. I like the built-in speakers—they're not amazing but handy. The stand is functional but could be more adjustable. Overall, it's a good value if you find it on sale.
