Monitor Gigabyte M27UP - 27" inch SS IPS UHD 4K 3840x2160, 160Hz, 1ms, HDR 400

Gigabyte M27UP is a 27-inch IPS monitor aimed at gaming and general use, combining high detail and very fast refresh. The 4K resolution 3840 x 2160 on a 27" panel provides a very fine image and excellent readable text, while the 160 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms response time make it truly suitable for dynamic games. The LED backlight, brightness 400 cd/m², and claimed HDR level help create a more impactful picture with more detail in bright and dark areas. Add to that a matte Anti-Glare coating and you get a screen that feels equally good for gaming, work, and multimedia.

What you get: 4K at 27" with 0.1554 mm pixel size means an extremely dense picture — ideal for playing at high resolution, but also for working in software with many panels, timelines, and text. The IPS matrix with 178°/178° viewing angles maintains stable colors and contrast even when you are not sitting exactly in the middle, which is a plus when sharing the screen or using a second monitor. The 160 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms response help reduce blur and allow you to see fast movements more clearly, especially in FPS and competitive titles. The brightness 400 cd/m² and static contrast 1000:1 provide a solid basis for watching HDR content and games with more saturated lights. The 16:9 format and “Wide” screen type are standard for gaming and streaming, ensuring compatibility with most games and video platforms without black bars and additional settings.

• 27" diagonal provides a balance between a sufficiently large field of view for gaming and a convenient size for a desk and office environment.
• IPS matrix delivers good colors and wide viewing angles, which is important for both graphic work and multimedia.
• 4K UHD resolution 3840 x 2160 provides very high detail, suitable for modern games, text work, and precise content.
• Refresh rate 160 Hz provides significantly smoother motion compared to 60/75 Hz monitors, especially noticeable in fast shooters and competitive games.
• Response time 1 ms helps reduce ghosting and blurring during quick camera movements and objects in the frame.
• Brightness 400 cd/m² allows for comfortable work and play in brighter rooms and better reproduction of HDR scenes.
• Anti-Glare coating reduces reflections and glare, which is especially useful if there is a window or strong lighting behind you.
• Static contrast 1000:1 and dynamic 12000000:1 provide decent separation of dark and light areas for a more enjoyable viewing experience for movies and games.
• Viewing angles 178°/178° allow you to maintain picture quality even when viewing the screen at a greater angle.

This monitor is suitable if you are looking for a combination of 4K detail and high refresh rate for gaming, streaming, and everyday work. It is ideal for a single-PC setup, where you play, edit video, and work with many windows on one machine. It is not the most sensible choice if you mainly play at low settings and 1080p or if your hardware struggles to maintain high resolutions and refresh rates.

The combination of 4K resolution, 160 Hz, 1 ms, and IPS panel in this size makes the Gigabyte M27UP a very versatile choice for someone who wants one monitor for everything. Its strongest quality is that it does not force you to choose between detail and smoothness — you get both.
