Literally bought this 20 minutes ago. Time to validate my purchase!

Great to see this monitor reviewed, I'm sure many were eyeing it instead of the more expensive GP850.

Hey perfect timing, was just trying to convince a friend to get his first 1440p monitor :)

Thanks for the review. Just bought it. On sale at Best Buy in Canada this week. $400 CND (~290 US$).

[rampageblizzard]

for any prospective buyers, the stand is freaking HUGE. I would reccomend going with a monitor stand/mount. They go for like $50 and are absolutely worth it.

gotta love that 165Hz is now "medium refreshrate" sitting here with my 32" 75Hz :D I do have a 144Hz 27" but rarely use it

I have been looking forward to HB testing these cut-down variants! Thanks a lot Tim :)

Never clicked this fast, even faster than the monitor

[SeraNeph]

Hey, where's the MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD results? How will I know if that's better than the Goldilocks monitor itself?

[ruichaocheng]

2 years later, just bought this for $229 at best buy for the 27 inch model

I love LG monitors! I have got the LG 32GP850 and it is a really good monitor. I was lucky enough to get it on sale too. I couldn't pass up the deal after seeing your review on it.

[RedORdeaD]

What happened with MSI MAG274QRF-QD? It was removed from graphs and you didnt even mention it as an alternative? I am looking for a 27" 1440p monitor and was between the GP850 and the MSI, leaning a little towards the MSI model according to your previous videos. I think I would only consider the 83B if it is like 100+ cheaper.

I bought this recently as my first 1440p monitor glad to hear it holds up

[mattjennings]

Just followed the Amazon link and grabbed the LG 27GL83 on sale for 279.99. Great deal on a solid monitor - your review convinced me to pull the trigger.

[jameslewis]

Sounds like this could be a good budget oriented upgrade for those of us who are still gaming on 1080p screens.

[Centail]

Care to take another look at the MSI MAG274QRF-QD now that it was updated with a real color clamp feature?
I've been dying to see if that improves things, or even if the default color pallet is more accurate too.

[jolness]

I’ve had this for about a year. Grabbed it at a deep discount. Moving to a 4k and this will be my secondary. Overall, happy with it for the money.

[itbaggedurgf]

Man I love these monitor reviews, an absolute trove of info!

[Azreil]

Went with the Gigabyte M27Q and I love it. Even with the BGR panel, with proper setting, text looks great also, hard to sometimes tell the difference when side by side with an RGB panel.

[bezchlebalukas]

Hi i would like to ask why you dont add MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD to compare
