Dell G2724D — Editorial Review
The Dell G2724D is a value benchmark for 1440p gaming monitors — a 27-inch 165Hz IPS panel that pairs accurate color and a fully adjustable stand with an aggressively low price.

27-inch 1440p 165Hz IPS, accurate and adjustable
RTINGS and PCWorld note the 27-inch 1440p IPS panel runs at 165 Hz with a 1 ms response and FreeSync/G-Sync Compatible support for fluid, tear-free play. Color accuracy is a standout — better than most similarly priced rivals — and it ships with a genuinely full ergonomic stand (tilt, swivel, pivot and ~130 mm height). PCWorld called it a new standard-bearer for budget gaming monitors. In Monitors Unboxed's review — featured above — it's measured as unbelievable value for 1440p gaming.
Honest cons
- Occasional QC issues. Some units show dead pixels or backlight bleed.
- HDR is token. HDR400 doesn't deliver real HDR impact (typical at this price).
- 165 Hz over DisplayPort only. HDMI tops out at 144 Hz.
- No built-in speakers. You'll need headphones or external audio.
Where this monitor fits
- Budget-minded gamers who want sharp 1440p and high refresh for less.
- Color-conscious users who value accurate IPS output at the price.
- Ergonomics seekers who want a full tilt/swivel/pivot/height stand.
- Not HDR-first buyers, built-in-speaker needs, or 165 Hz over HDMI.
