Viotek GFT27DB 27"

Overview

The Viotek GFT27DB it’s an easy buy recommendation for those that want a fast gaming monitor. It’s 1440p and 144Hz with FreeSync, which we feel is still the sweet spot for PC gaming in 2019, and because it’s a TN, ghosting is not an issue. Combined with the best colors we’ve seen for this type of monitor, it’s basically the best gaming TN on the market, so kudos to Viotek for that.

The Viotek GFT27DB is an excellent monitor to have especially if you're a gamer or a graphics artist, photographer or an artist in general because of its high vibrant and accurate colors; you'll be able to do some fantastic work in it boils down to graphics work as well.

The Viotek GFT27DB is a fantastic choice if you want a high-refresh 1440p display that packs superb performance without costing an arm and a leg. The extra gamut coverage surprised us since this is a TN-based model, but Viotek should have fine-tuned the monitor prior to its release. The design sits well with our tastes since it isn’t too gaudy like most modern offerings we’ve recently come across.

Since a 27-inch display at 2560x1440 is the sweet spot for gaming right now, the Viotek GFT27DB resides in the sweet spot of that sweet spot. The design is basic and the display is wobbly, but it combines speed and accurate color reproduction at a great price.
