LG 27GR75Q-B 27-inch UltraGear™ QHD 1ms 165Hz Monitor with NVIDIA® G-SYNC® Compatible

LG 27GR75Q-B 27-inch UltraGear™ QHD 1ms 165Hz Monitor with NVIDIA® G-SYNC® Compatible

The LG 27GR75Q-B UltraGear gaming monitor combines the visual excellence of an IPS panel with the competitive performance demanded by serious gamers. Featuring 2560×1440 QHD resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and dual adaptive sync compatibility (G-SYNC + FreeSync Premium), it delivers sharp, smooth, color-accurate gameplay without compromise.

QHD Resolution: The Sweet Spot for Gaming

At 2560×1440 on a 27-inch panel, the 27GR75Q-B delivers 109 PPI (pixels per inch) — 77% more pixels than 1080p FHD with sharper text, finer details, and better clarity without the GPU demands of 4K. QHD strikes the perfect balance between visual fidelity and high frame rates, enabling competitive gameplay at 165Hz on mid-to-high-end GPUs.

IPS Panel: Superior Color and Viewing Angles

Unlike VA panels with limited viewing angles or TN panels with poor color reproduction, the IPS (In-Plane Switching) panel delivers consistent, accurate colors from virtually any viewing angle (178°/178°). With sRGB 99% color gamut coverage, the monitor reproduces colors with exceptional accuracy, making it ideal not just for gaming but also for content creation, photo editing, and media consumption. HDR10 support enhances dynamic range in supported games and movies, revealing deeper shadows and brighter highlights.

165Hz + 1ms: Speed Meets Clarity

At 165Hz, the monitor refreshes 165 times per second — 2.75x faster than standard 60Hz displays. Combined with 1ms (GtG) response time, it eliminates motion blur, ghosting, and stuttering, ensuring every frame is rendered with pixel-perfect clarity. Fast-moving objects remain sharp, camera pans flow smoothly, and your reflexes translate instantly to on-screen action.

Dual Adaptive Sync: Universal Compatibility

Supporting both NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible and AMD FreeSync Premium, the 27GR75Q-B synchronizes refresh rates with your GPU (AMD or NVIDIA) to eliminate screen tearing, stuttering, and input lag. FreeSync Premium includes Low Framerate Compensation (LFC), maintaining smooth motion even when frame rates dip below the monitor’s minimum refresh range. Whether you’re team red or green, you get tear-free gaming.

Motion Blur Reduction: Crystal-Clear Motion

Motion Blur Reduction (likely branded as “1ms Motion Blur Reduction” or MBR by LG) uses backlight strobing to further reduce motion blur during fast action. This feature is particularly effective in competitive shooters where tracking moving targets with absolute clarity provides a competitive advantage.

Gaming Intelligence Suite

• Black Stabilizer: Brightens dark areas without overexposing bright zones, revealing enemies hiding in shadows
• Dynamic Action Sync: Minimizes input lag for instantaneous response between controller input and on-screen action
• Crosshair Overlay: Customizable center-screen crosshairs for enhanced aiming precision in games without built-in crosshairs
• FPS Counter: Real-time frame rate display to monitor performance
• Game Mode Presets: Optimized settings for different genres (FPS, RTS, etc.)

Full Ergonomic Adjustability

Height-adjustable stand with tilt and pivot (portrait mode) support enables precise positioning for optimal viewing angles. Whether you’re leaning back for immersive single-player games or sitting upright for competitive play, the monitor adapts to your posture. Pivot mode is perfect for coding, document review, or vertical content consumption. VESA mounting (likely 100x100mm) supports aftermarket arms or wall mounts.

3-Sided Virtually Borderless Design

Ultra-thin bezels on three sides (top, left, right) maximize screen real estate and create a nearly seamless multi-monitor experience. Line up two or three displays for expansive gaming or productivity setups with minimal visual interruption.

Eye Comfort Features

While specific features aren’t detailed, LG UltraGear monitors typically include Flicker Safe technology and Reader Mode to reduce eye strain during extended gaming sessions.

A versatile QHD gaming monitor that balances competitive performance with IPS color accuracy, making it ideal for gamers who refuse to compromise between speed and image quality.

Important Notes:

• Full 165Hz Requires DisplayPort: HDMI 2.0 typically limited to 144Hz at QHD; use DisplayPort 1.4 for full 165Hz
• GPU Requirements: For 165Hz at QHD, recommended GPUs include RTX 3060 Ti/4060 or RX 6700 XT/7700 XT or better
• G-SYNC Compatible vs Native G-SYNC: This is G-SYNC Compatible (validated FreeSync), not native G-SYNC with hardware module; performs identically to FreeSync on AMD GPUs
• Motion Blur Reduction Limitation: MBR typically disables adaptive sync (G-SYNC/FreeSync) when active; use one or the other
• IPS Glow: IPS panels may exhibit slight “IPS glow” in dark scenes when viewed at angles; normal for technology
• HDR Performance: HDR10 on non-DisplayHDR certified monitors (no HDR400/600 rating specified) may have limited peak brightness and no local dimming; modest HDR performance expected
• Specifications Incomplete: Some specs marked as “TBD” or “typical” should be verified with official LG documentation or retailer before purchase

Ideal Use Cases:

• Competitive gaming (FPS, MOBA, battle royale)
• Content creation requiring color accuracy (photo editing, graphic design)
• Multi-purpose use (gaming + productivity)
• Users wanting IPS color quality without sacrificing gaming performance
• Single-player story-driven games with beautiful visuals

Comparison to Other Panel Types:

• vs TN Panels: Better colors and viewing angles, similar speed
• vs VA Panels: Better viewing angles and color accuracy; VA has higher contrast but slower response times
• vs OLED: OLED has better contrast (infinite blacks) but higher cost and burn-in risk
