  • You can fully immerse yourself in your game thanks to the slight bend of the curved screen,
  • On the QHD screen with HDR support, you can enjoy sharp images and colors.

This monitor also has a curved screen, so you can fully immerse yourself into your game. Thanks to the 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time, you can game with smooth images without screen tearing. The 27M2C5201L/00 has HDR10 support, so you can even enjoy a wider color representation and higher contrasts. Have an AMD or NVIDIA video card?
