Got this monitor today and I am loving it. For the price I am very surprised and my main reason for getting it was the high brightness available in the price bracket its in and I am not disappointment.
@@JimMcBeam You forgot PHILLIPS once Europe greatest giant in microelectronics and TVs Monitors, currently they offer Evnia series of gaming monitors which are very good also but lack detailed reviews and coverage by good monitor reviewers, with tangable data about real specs latencies etc.
First impressions are very positive, the gameplay responsiveness is brilliant all through the VRR range, HDR is surprisingly good too, no ghosting at all and out of the box colours are brilliant
so nice review dude... which is better for competitive gaming and other story offline games, this monitor or the odyssey g7 240hz-1440p if they are in front of me with the same price?
@@TotallydubbedHD in my country , the aoc i see with these specs is named q27g4. it has different stand base like V-shaped... do you know something about that?
Hi, you suggest the Omen 27q over this, is it mostly because of the refresh compliance difference ? This AOC monitor seems to have higher hz, better response time overall and less extreme best/worst in visual response ratings, wouldnt it look sharper if both were running at 165hz ?
Yeah based on these reviews and numbers in them, the AOC looks same or even better to me, response time similar or better because of 180 hz (2 cells (5.6) are very close to the refresh window (5.56) so its more like 70% at 180hz and few more are not far), contrast is better 1250 vs 900, can use mprt while gsync.. only cons I noticed satured colors in standard mode, but you can use sgrb mode, and that input lag isnt 0.0 when you cant use the low input lag mode under gsync... I had an aoc monitor before that I didnt like, it had ghosting (and oversaturation, that one had no srgb), but thats a totally different 1080p one, this shouldnt be like that based on the numbers of this test
Could you please share the settings you used on this monitor? I accidentally changed mine, but now the color become inaccurate. I *could* use DisplayHDR preset but having the brightness setting locked to 100 max hurts my eyes. I just want to know what the RGB levels looked like to get an accurate color. Even if the numbers are slightly different, it's fine. It would be better than blindly changing the sliders.
@@TotallydubbedHDI'm not talking about sRGB %. I'm talking about the RGB sliders on the OSD. Between 0 and 100, what's the ideal value to get a color accurate result (or as close to it as possible)?
One quick Question. How high can you make the foot. How many centimeters would that be between the table and the bottom of the monitor. I don't really find anything about that ^^
I noticed that red color(texts, icons) look blurry while I have 180hz refresh rate and the only option available "YcbCr422" in Nvidia Control Panel . If I go down to 170hz there are 2 additional options YcbCr444 and RGB, choosing one of those solves the issue... Anyone knows how to keep 180hz and fix that blurred red color?
So i just got my monitor connected it with dp shows 180 in nvida control panel but doesnt want to apply, when it did work i tried playing a game in fullscreen i get no video input saying on the screen.
Very nice review, got his monitor at a great price in Sweden and it was between this and the Mag 274QRFW for 25€ more, however that one has a white stand & bezel which I just couldn't live with :D overall very happy. Although in the color section it doesn't seem like you included any calibrated results? Would've been nice to see what it can do with a simple SpyderX/X-Rite iDisplay calibration. Tyvm.
Glad you liked the review. I don't do calibrated results as 99% of my audience don't have a calibrator, thus making it irrelevant. Beter knowing out fo the box performance.
@@TotallydubbedHD Yeah but if your goal is to make more comprehensive monitor reviews and an extra slider just takes 20ish extra seconds or so to showcase the capabilities of the monitor that'd contribute towards your review despite most people not having one, It's neat to know. It doesn't take anything away while adding informative content. For example Hardware Unboxed does it. Cheerios.
@@Zalazane sure, and do you know how much extra time it takes? How much money do I make from it? How little appreciation I get for my videos as it is? I'm happy with what I produce, and others who have bigger budgets, more time and much more money will of course have the ability to do that on a regular basis.
@@TotallydubbedHD That's fair was merely a suggestion. As for time, I figure setting the brightness + RGB values, Calibrating with DisplayCAL & Finally doing a report, 15-20ish extra minutes? There's other things that you go very in depth into that could be said the same about, like uniformity, but you seem passionate about it so I'm just happy It's in the review. Also to be clear, I liked the review it was way more in depth than I expected out of a random review I found on TH-cam, usually It's a random guy talking about a monitor without any data to back it up and just quoting the spec-sheet. Was just a tiny suggestion as the icing on the cake that I personally would very much appreciate hence suggesting it. Thx for reading & answering btw. Cheerios ^^
Can you tell me if there are holes to attach directly to the wall on the back of the screen? or forced to have the foot :( on the video we can't see... is it under a cover?
your options are different than mines, i do not have the input lag option, i couldnt find how to update the firmware, but also is differrent than yours
Hey, I’m not very knowledgeable about this stuff so it might sound stupid and I could really use some help. I mainly play CS2 and Rust and want to get the best competitive experience from my AOC Q27G4XF even though its not the best monitor for this. It’s very similar to the one in the video, the only differences i could find are lower brightness and no 10bit colors on max refresh rate, the OSD looks the same. For CS2, I get 300+ FPS with 1% lows around 170, so I set my monitor's overdrive to "Faster" (options are Normal, Fast, Faster, Fastest) and have Adaptive Sync enabled both on the monitor and in Radeon software. I also noticed I can turn on MBR Sync. Oddly, MBR Sync makes the screen brighter than my 75% brightness, which I didn’t expect since I thought it would make it darker but I don’t mind low or high brightness since I play in a dark room. For Rust, my FPS varies a lot. Usually around 100 but sometimes hitting 150 or dropping to 60 depending on the server and location on the map. I’d prefer not to change settings constantly between games. Would Adaptive Sync + Faster Overdrive + MBR Sync be the best setup for this situation? I can’t enable classic MBR (where I can adjust brightness levels from 1 to 20) with Adaptive Sync on like said in the video so im not sure if its better to disable VRR?. There’s also a "Low Input Lag" mode, but it’s grayed out unless Adaptive Sync is off also. Is Low Input Lag automatically enabled with Adaptive Sync, or is it disabled? Sorry if these are dumb questions, but I’d really appreciate any advice! Im not reall sure how they work with each other and which is the best setup settings Also on their website this monitor has no drivers or software or anything like that if that matters in any way since most of their other monitors have this Thanks!
I would disable VRR, max out on frames for lower total system latency for hardcore gaming like CS2. Input lag is greyed out and disabled from subjective testing.
You would go into the OSD and if if has options to change the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) settings, just turn down the red until you feel like it’s where you want it
Hey, is this monitor actually g-sync compatible? It's nowhere mentioned on the product page on AOC website, but it's mentioned for other monitors, so i'm really clueless if i should buy it or not 😢
It's something I've recently been looking at - it's somewhat important, shows how much of the transitions are actually being met by the refresh rate of the monitor. In other words, if it's actually achieving what the maximum refresh rate the manufacturer is marketing
@@TotallydubbedHD Does a 63.33 percent in window score mean that it is only achieving 63.33% of the 180hz max (114 hz) or that only 63.33% of the window is hitting the 180 hz mark? if so, how far off of 180hz would the rest of the screen be?
Is the average initial time the response time? Becuase it says that the response time is 0.5 ms. I am between this monitor and the msi Q27G4XF 180hz 2k its almost the same price
@totallydubbedHD would you recommend the Gigabyte M27Q X (1440p 240hz) over this AOC Q27G4X? The motion performance and response times as the same and there is are £85 difference
im deciding between AOC 27 Inch Q27G4X vs AOC Q24G2A/BK 23.8 vs AOC Gaming 27 Inch Q27G2S..... which one should i go for? im a console and hard pc gamer
Please, do you recommend it for 60 Hz games like FIFA? I watched your clip but I don't understand much of the analysis I would like your opinion Thank you for the reply
@@TotallydubbedHD i know, but im just asking an opinion since AOC is gonna replace my Q27G2S , for another a 32 inch monitor but its too big for me, and i can suggest another one on that price range. And i was wondering wich one would you recommend (i watched your Q27G3XMN video) but i dont know if its a good option or if you have another opinion
Not really relevant for a lot of people, most monitors run at 8-bit which is plenty. But, you'll see it still shown in the input screenshots of my videos.
Im confused with this monitor. On the one hand you say its 2k but someone else said its 1080p . Even the description on amazon says hdmi 2.0 1920 x 1080 but its labeled as a qhd monitor at the top. Maybe im dumb and old
Got it for $140. Xmas sale on Amazon. Coming in 2 days. Really wanted to see why people love 1440p so much. I've used nothing but 1080p for a long, long time 🙏
Can you help pls? I want to buy a monitor and its between this one and AOC Q27G2S. You reviewed both of them, price is the same, so any suggestions now after some time? Which is kinda better option? I would use it for playing one game and watching movies. I understand that older one has better colors, but this one is faster and i think little bit brighter. Is there anything else which makes a difference?
@@TotallydubbedHD in Sweden 3 websites wrote, that Q27g4x qhd has speakers 😅 I guess they just wrong but I couldn't find official info that confirms this
@@moh-rd4mm well, I would rather trust a reviewer with 250+ monitor videos than a retailer lol. But as mentioned, it might be a different model. You can always look at the manufacturer's website for more info.
Looking for a dual monitor setup. One monitor will be for my pc and ps5. Do you recommend getting two of these? Ps this monitor is now £178.99 seems like a steal to get 2 for my redsign of my setup.
Thanks! Better double check for specs, but knowing AOC, it's a region thing - you'll have a different stand, maybe with or without USB ports and sometimes even a different OSD.
Hi, currently this monitor is at £230, but the HP omen 27q is at £200 pounds. Do you think this monitor is worth the extra £30, or should I go for the HP omen?
@@TotallydubbedHD Thanks for your answer! The link now takes to the 'AOC Q27G4XN 27"' model, I see that the one in the video doesn't have an N at the end so probably is a different model.
Hi I’ve just brought this monitor to use with my ps5, any advice on how to change settings as I’m currently stuck on 60hrz and I’m not able to put it in game mode as the option is not available to do so. Thanks
@@masehierazai8094 good question - AOC's answer, as I had the same question when it was announced: Q27G4XF is a more affordable variant of the Q27G4X. Brightness 300 nits vs 450 nits HDR10 vs HDR400 8-bit (16.7m colours) vs 8-bit+FRC (1.07 billion colours) 1x HDMI vs 2x HDMI
@@TotallydubbedHD Thank you for your quick response! I noticed that the F version features a Fast IPS panel compared to the standard IPS on the AOC Q27G4X. Would that make the F version more suitable for FPS gaming? I'm currently searching for a monitor primarily for PS5 gaming, where low input lag is crucial for high-level competitive play. While picture quality is important, it doesn't need to be the absolute best. With that in mind, do you think the AOC Q27G4XF would be a good alternative, and potentially better than the AOC Q27G4X? Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the video. What would you recommend, this or AOC Q24G2A. I only play Apex Legends, and when you're 64, your eyesight isn't the best. Thanks in advance.
I hate it when brand use different SKU between region. Here there is Q27G4 non X instead. They said the only difference is base stand, but i doubt that. It even still use old ugly OSD compared to new OSD used in the X version.
@TotallydubbedHD Would you consider this over the AOC 25G3ZM for mainly FPS "somewhat-competitive"? I have the AOC25G3ZM at my parents' for a series s and I like it quite well I think. But I'm looking for a new monitor for gaming on a new PC rig I'm putting together. I'm also considering different 1440p options since this rig will do pretty good there as well and a larger screen size could be beneficial for general purpose use (I could get a smaller High refresh rate monitor first and later use it as a side panel and for certain games where I play more competitively rather than for pure visuals/story.
I upgraded/downgraded from Acer Predator XB253Q to this one and its kind of mixed bag. I needed bigger allrounder monitor and this one ticked all the boxes. Bump in resolution is nice but nothing spectacular but i also feel that 60hz loss in some games but i got used to it. Build quallity is also bit downgrade. AOC is not flimsy but not sturdy as Acer for sure. No joystick also sucks on AOC. Picture quality and colors saved this monitor for me. Mine AOC came with few stuck pixels and i almost returned it, maybe they disapper in time..
So i bought this monitor knowing about the 180hz, but in fact, with overdrive medium, at best case cenario, i have only a refresh rate of 63 fps? I just bought this monitor and a radeon RX 6800. did i mess up?
@@TotallydubbedHD 2.36min I though you were saying that from 180 refresh rate, u were only getting 63.33. I guess it was a misunderstood of me. Thabks you for the reply and the good video!

Can someone tell me why i cant enable MBR sync
I dont know much about monitors and stuff, but i use this monitor on PS5.
Someone that can help me?
@TotallydubbedHD
Disable HDR?
@@TotallydubbedHD i turned it off on my monitor as well as my PS5 and still doesnt work…
@@WkonR are you running at 120hz? If not, it won't work at 60Hz.
@ i’m running on 120hz, i turned adaptive sync off and now i can turn MBR on from a scale from 1-20. What about the MBR sync? I cant turn that on
Is this the same as the 27g4?
q27g2s vsq27g4x. which one do you prefer sir?
If u didn't bought already, don't buy g2s one, biggest scam ever
Is this one better than the aoc q27g2s/eu ??
Did you find out?
Please, do you recommend it for 60 Hz games like FIFA? I watched your clip but I don't understand much of the analysis I would like your opinion Thank you for the reply
Should be fine
between all the aoc monitors that you have tested wich one do you recommend? give me 2 options, if possible 27 inches!
That's quite a generic question - suggest watching my best gaming monitor video for my top picks.
@@TotallydubbedHD i know, but im just asking an opinion since AOC is gonna replace my Q27G2S , for another a 32 inch monitor but its too big for me, and i can suggest another one on that price range. And i was wondering wich one would you recommend (i watched your Q27G3XMN video) but i dont know if its a good option or if you have another opinion
@@Dakhanavar99 again, go watch my roundup and go from there.
how can this (10:11) backlight bleed be reasonable?
As what you see on camera is a little different from what you see in person. Plus, everyone has different requirements.
you will say the Omen 27Q is better ?
Bro can u talk about the color depth in ur reviews pls? Because there aren't much info about most of the monitors' color depth and frc support
Not really relevant for a lot of people, most monitors run at 8-bit which is plenty. But, you'll see it still shown in the input screenshots of my videos.
Is q27g4 close to this? Im planning to get q27g4
its the same bro different stand that all
isn't the Q27G4XN a fast VA monitor with 1:5000 contrast?
Yup that's a different panel
"Accept 4K signal input" could you elaborate ? didn't really understand.
Takes a 4K signal and converts it to 1440p. I'd suggest looking it up online (TFT Central has a great article on fake 4k signal)
Im confused with this monitor. On the one hand you say its 2k but someone else said its 1080p . Even the description on amazon says hdmi 2.0 1920 x 1080 but its labeled as a qhd monitor at the top. Maybe im dumb and old
Watch the names on the 1440p one it says q27g4x but on the full hd one it only says 27g4x.
The q stands for quad HD.
@patriknagy8820 AHH ok thanks i ordered the g27g4x off Amazon. So I should be ok.. thanks again
Monitor names can get confusing lol
@@TotallydubbedHD yes it's ridiculous 😩
@jonparker7784 some manufacturers even use the exact same model name....For two different monitors. It's crazy stupid lol.
Got it for $140. Xmas sale on Amazon. Coming in 2 days. Really wanted to see why people love 1440p so much. I've used nothing but 1080p for a long, long time 🙏
Enjoy!

How is the monitor on story driven games
Good
Overlay crosshair?? What better this or G PRO REDMI
Never heard of the other
Can you help pls? I want to buy a monitor and its between this one and AOC Q27G2S. You reviewed both of them, price is the same, so any suggestions now after some time? Which is kinda better option? I would use it for playing one game and watching movies. I understand that older one has better colors, but this one is faster and i think little bit brighter. Is there anything else which makes a difference?
Would suggest looking at both the reviews and seeing what works best for you!
can u test it at 165hz or 170hz maybe the results will be better ?
I can't get mine above 120hz. How do I fix it?
right click your desktop -> display settings -> advanced display settings -> dropdown menu and choose the highest number available. hope that helps 🫶
@ thanks you. Ain’t home so I can’t try but thanks
@ashhhh6 Ty, but max was 144 hz
Q27G4X vs Q27G2S ?
does this have the same panel as AOC Q27G4?
does it have speakers?
in video u said no
but a lot of company says it has
and if it doesnt why it got sound settings in its osd?
Because of the 3.5mm jack.
@@TotallydubbedHD that's what it has me confused
A lot of company in my computer write that it has speakers so I really idk
@@moh-rd4mm they're wrong or you're looking at a different model.
@@TotallydubbedHD in Sweden 3 websites wrote, that Q27g4x qhd has speakers 😅 I guess they just wrong but I couldn't find official info that confirms this
@@moh-rd4mm well, I would rather trust a reviewer with 250+ monitor videos than a retailer lol.
But as mentioned, it might be a different model. You can always look at the manufacturer's website for more info.
q27g4 and q27g4x is not the same
i bought the q27g4 and MBR and Adaptive Refresh Rate can't be used together
Here they sell a Q27G4N, wondering what the difference is with the X.
Just found out - N is a VA panel. Seems X is IPS.
does it have mbr mode like the x model ?
It's good especially in gaming and colours or not ...
Looking for a dual monitor setup. One monitor will be for my pc and ps5. Do you recommend getting two of these?
Ps this monitor is now £178.99 seems like a steal to get 2 for my redsign of my setup.
@@dean9645 sounds good
Great video! But I have a question…. What is the difference between this monitor( AOC Q27G4X) and the AOC Q27G4 (non x) ?
Thanks! Better double check for specs, but knowing AOC, it's a region thing - you'll have a different stand, maybe with or without USB ports and sometimes even a different OSD.
@@TotallydubbedHDWow! Thanks for the fast reply and for your advise 👍🏻

Is this monitor capable of displaying 4k at 60 hz as well?

@@ix41 suggest watching the video and making your own informed decision!
Is the link to amazon the correct one? It takes me to a VA version of this monitor, I thought it was an IPS
Shouldn't be a VA one, sometimes the description on Amazon is ridiculously bad and incorrect. Double check the product name.
@@TotallydubbedHD Thanks for your answer! The link now takes to the 'AOC Q27G4XN 27"' model, I see that the one in the video doesn't have an N at the end so probably is a different model.
@ouden. Yup that's different! Where are you based, I'll look to see if I can point out correctly. Might have been a mistake on my end!

Check your PS5 display settings for performance mode.
Where is the difference to the AOC Q27G4XF?
@@masehierazai8094 good question - AOC's answer, as I had the same question when it was announced:
Q27G4XF is a more affordable variant of the Q27G4X.
Brightness 300 nits vs 450 nits
HDR10 vs HDR400
8-bit (16.7m colours) vs 8-bit+FRC (1.07 billion colours)
1x HDMI vs 2x HDMI
@@TotallydubbedHD Thank you for your quick response!
I noticed that the F version features a Fast IPS panel compared to the standard IPS on the AOC Q27G4X. Would that make the F version more suitable for FPS gaming?
I'm currently searching for a monitor primarily for PS5 gaming, where low input lag is crucial for high-level competitive play. While picture quality is important, it doesn't need to be the absolute best.
With that in mind, do you think the AOC Q27G4XF would be a good alternative, and potentially better than the AOC Q27G4X?
Thanks in advance!
@@masehierazai8094 no idea, not tried it so can't comment.
@@TotallydubbedHD
I see.
Which monitor would you recommed the most for FPS gaming on the PS5?
@@masehierazai8094 I don't game on console but this one on review is good across the board for the price.
I have a question, in the Nvidia panel if you have an Nvidia do you have the option available for G-sync compatible? Nvidia certifier?
Unofficially, did you watch the video?
Freesync yes
Thanks for the video. What would you recommend, this or AOC Q24G2A. I only play Apex Legends, and when you're 64, your eyesight isn't the best. Thanks in advance.
Well a larger monitor would naturally be a better pick if your eyesight isn't the best. 24" will make everything look sharper though (better ppi).
does have build in speakers i cant get sound with dp cable?
I hate it when brand use different SKU between region. Here there is Q27G4 non X instead. They said the only difference is base stand, but i doubt that. It even still use old ugly OSD compared to new OSD used in the X version.
Yeah, it's frustrating for reviewers like myself too!
do u recomment this better than viewsonic vx2728J?@@TotallydubbedHD
i have a Q27G4 non X and i think its missing feature like MBR since its grayed out.
I turned off all VRR and HDR. it is still grayed out
@@user-lj3zz5hd8g you need to disable adaptive sync to use MBR

Does someone know if this Monitor works fine with a Macbook pro 2021?
Why wouldn't it?
@@TotallydubbedHD Cause i had a problem with a Monitor from another brand and i was courious if this monitor got the same problems.
@@OnkelFolie and what problem was that lol?
@TotallydubbedHD Would you consider this over the AOC 25G3ZM for mainly FPS "somewhat-competitive"? I have the AOC25G3ZM at my parents' for a series s and I like it quite well I think. But I'm looking for a new monitor for gaming on a new PC rig I'm putting together. I'm also considering different 1440p options since this rig will do pretty good there as well and a larger screen size could be beneficial for general purpose use (I could get a smaller High refresh rate monitor first and later use it as a side panel and for certain games where I play more competitively rather than for pure visuals/story.
I almost got the Q27G3mxn this weekend on but missed it since it was a a limited number of units...
I'd suggest a higher refresh rate if you're a competitive gamer, such as the AOC you've mentioned.
do u recomment this better than viewsonic vx2728J?
Hi, does the q27g4x have the same panel as the q24g4e
Think so, check the specs!
Would you be able to get 120fps on ps5 fortnite?
Should do
How do I get volume on it?
.
Does the monitor have HDMI 2.1 ?
Did you watch the video? No, just 2.0
Is this able to run 1440p at 120 fps on the Xbox series x?
Yes
@ u do it?
Probably
@@Andqxi yes, works perfect
2.02 What does percent in window mean?
How much of the refresh rate was within the acceptable range needed for said refresh rate
Can you use MBR and Gsync together with the sRGB mode?
Not sure why you'd ever want to do that, but I can't see why not.

is the MBR brightness at max at the maximum brightness?
It's a set brightness with MBR
Hi using monitor on PlayStation 5 how do i get it 2 180 hz?
You can't get more than 120hz on consoles (with any monitor).
Ok np but the monitor says 60hz?
Can't get into game mode as well
@@matthewmccullagh3515 suggest looking on the internet, you'll need to look up performance mode.
I upgraded/downgraded from Acer Predator XB253Q to this one and its kind of mixed bag. I needed bigger allrounder monitor and this one ticked all the boxes. Bump in resolution is nice but nothing spectacular but i also feel that 60hz loss in some games but i got used to it. Build quallity is also bit downgrade. AOC is not flimsy but not sturdy as Acer for sure. No joystick also sucks on AOC. Picture quality and colors saved this monitor for me. Mine AOC came with few stuck pixels and i almost returned it, maybe they disapper in time..
As per the review, I'd suggest looking at the description.
So i bought this monitor knowing about the 180hz, but in fact, with overdrive medium, at best case cenario, i have only a refresh rate of 63 fps?
I just bought this monitor and a radeon RX 6800. did i mess up?
@@23Liiis overdrive doesn't change the refresh rate lol. As for only have 63fps, change your graphics settings at 1440p.
