There's a new competitor in the packed monitor market: NZXT. The T company launched a pair of debut displays, the NZXT Canvas 27Q (fave.co/3PjPDUo) and Canvas 32Q (fave.co/3C4xk2D), in July 2022. I'm reviewing the smaller of the pair here. NZXT isn't turning the monitor world on its head with these new options, but the Canvas 27Q is a good choice if you want to game at 1440p.
THE SPECS
The NZXT Canvas 27Q's specifications are typical of a 1440p gaming monitor. It has an
IPS display panel and a refresh rate of up to 165Hz, and supports adaptive sync on both AMD and Nvidia hardware. Video connectivity is a bit better than usual, with USB-C joining a pair of HDMI ports and a lone DisplayPort.
Display size: 27-inch
Native resolution: 2,560×1,440
Panel type: IPS
Refresh rate: Up to 165Hz
HDR: Yes, HDR10
Adaptive sync: AMD FreeSync Premium, G-Sync Compatible
Ports: 2x HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.2, 2x USB Type-A, USB-C with DisplayPort Alternate Mode, USB-B (Upstream), 3.5mm audio
Stand adjustment: Height, tilt, swivel, pivot
VESA mount: Yes, 100x100mm
Speakers: No
Price: $359.99 MSRP ($319.99 withoutstand) The Canvas 27Q carries an MSRP of $359.99. That’s not extravagant but toward the upper end of pricing for a 27-inch, 1440p monitor with a refresh rate of 165Hz. Is NZXT’s debut 27-inch monitor worth paying a premium?
