Are Under $200 1440p, 180Hz IPS Gaming Monitors any good? (PG27QFT2A Review)

Hey yall, this is an AU Optronics 180hz panel, will see them in a lot of 180hz and 170hz 1440p IPS 27" brands (like koorui, sansui etc.) So the review apply to a lot of these monitors that are propping up under $200. Ultimately though very good value panel.

Where can you get this monitor for $165 from ?

this shit cost over 300$

How do you use that included Wi-Fi?

well why do you not list where you buy it from for that price

I am always on a budget, i love you Budget tips for years. Please keep on doing that

Pretty cool, Asrock is doing some great stuff of late..

asrock selling monitors now? what?

Great monitor and Price. However when it comes to Refresh rate, Personally for me, anything over and above 140 Hz is non standard, and Windows doesn't support, without all the software working. If you use the latest greatest cable, latest drivers, still you cannot go above 140, because there is no option. Even though you monitor states 165 Hz. So for me i still don't trust anything above 140. This is from experience using numerous monitors, and PC`s.

$400AUD on Amazon AU.

in serbia its around 40 000 dinars. 330 euros or 360 usd. just saying

I almost got this exact monitor but disappointingly missed out due to it being out of stock when i was ready to purchase so I ended up getting a KTC monitor with pretty much the exact same specs.
The main noticeable difference is the included stand.

Hi Sir, I'm an International Student here in Australia and is planning to get my Graduation Visa this coming 2025. I'm planning to bring my Computer Parts from the Philippines that are used. Are there any Tax Penalties if I bring it here in Australia? I'm only planning to bring my GPU, Motherboard (with the cpu), and all the storage components, and ram. Hope to get a respond from you as I wanted to save up some extra money as I continue my Professional Year here in Australia.

165 in the US, A$639 in Australia (Amazon). Doesn't actually appear to be locally available.
Did Asrock say when they are selling them in Aus?

Got excited over your video of this monitor until I realised it wasn't in AUD...

Need a video on mid to high end 32" 2k monitors.

Unless the monitor can be actually bought for $165 this is an incredibly misleading video. Looks like TYC got badly misled here. Try searching in your country for $165 for this monitor and then come back to view this video. I think this video should be taken down unless the monitor becomes widely available at $165, after adjusting for taxes / exchange rates.

Get rid of the wifi and speakers. Change the 2 stick out front feet on the stand to a square base so your keyboard can slide over it easier for more desk room and this would be a good monitor to consider

Might actually buy this one for my vacation home :)

Is this an edge lit display? Check the bottom edge with a FLIR to see how hot it gets. On big TV sets it can get as high as 123C/253F. Baby that's hot!

I love the idea of a wifi antenna built into the monitor. Kinda sucks that it is built into the stand for those that use a VESA mount though. But still love the idea for something different and out from behind the computer case and also not just sitting on the desktop that may or maynot be cluttered.

Man I really hate when people call 1440p '2k'. 1080p is the real '2k'. 1440p is just 1440p or '2.5k' if one must apply a 'k' to it.

1440p 27"inch 144HZ good value now 👍 more affordable its insane

$350 (USD that is) around here

You would be a Crossfade fan. Man I loved them when I was in Uni. Great review and video as always! Can't wait for this to be available in Canada

Yes, the cheap panels have gotten very good. If you pick right, you really won't be able to gain much more that is noticeable, but you will pay a whole lot more if you try.

Can anyone tell me if they think i should go forward buying a motherboard for a cpu that only after I bought it found corrosion on? one pad has a dark spot but most of the pad is visible I cleaned it for a good minute there was also corrosion around the fuses and little ic's etc, the part in the center of the bottom of the cpu where the pins surround it.

I'm pretty upset over it the cpu is a i7 8700 and i have never seen anything like it I don't live by water at all I am in the Midwest of the united states... so no clue as to how that would happen unless it was left outside or something crazy wtf...

I have little interest in any 16:9 monitors anymore regardless of price, because once you go Ultrawide there is no going back.

27" QHD.. I pass. 24" is max.

starts at 240€ in germany, was at 209€ a few weeks ago

i have a 4k ips monitor and it’s completely garbage, im waiting for oled to get cheaper

Bane mid pro strats

I'm in the market for this specifically. Now I know what I'm going to legitimately purchase next. Mahalo

Galdly monitor are getting better atleast, can't wait for QDEL or something similar to come to the market.

What about HDR400? Have you tried some HDR watching? Is it worth anything (or a gimmick)?

I have a 240hz 1440p VA panel seems pretty goof. Innocn is the name of the brand. Test it one day if you can. Reviews i did find on it most were pleased with it.

hi, love your videos, keep the good work!!
there is any video on how to benchmark the final pc builds? are you installing all the software + games on every pc u build?
10x for all the content again!

Yes ! 1440p has been the sweet spot for a while now, a 4k monitor and card to drive it properly are still relatively expensive.

I just bought a refurbed Voitek, 1440p 144hz, works really nice, but the colors are off just a bit. I can tell with certain pictures and faces. Outside that gaming is great on it.

idk about global
but asia market skyworth and xiaomi dominated the market their 2k 165hz only cost 160$
considering all brand monitor made in china now, might as well buy from the factory it's self 😂 like skyworth

£205-225 in UK. That's US $265-292 or AUS $402 -$441 at today's exchange rates 27thOct

Shame your thumbnail chapters show US $165, because at £84.10 that would not stay in stock anywhere in the UK!!!

Seems great, the only problem is not available in my country. Not in that price anyway.

i need this to go with the 1080p version i own. would make a decent main display upgrade

The thin side Bezels would be a big part of why I would consider this Monitor, could make for a sweet dual monitor setup.

where can i buy this monitor

1440p Monitor prices: ↓↓↓
1440p GPU prices: ↑↑↑

1440p is the new 1080P

The links dont work

Can't find where to buy these in Australia.
