HP 27x has a higher contrast ratio of 3000 : 1. The AOpen 27MX1 has a VESA mount while the HP 27x does not. For the extremely fast frame rates, the HP 27x has better maximum refresh rate of 144 Hz that allows smoother gameplay. The AOpen 27MX1 is newer than HP 27x . For graphics color quality, the HP 27x has a better color depth of 8 -bit, resulting in smoother gradients and more accurate colors. The HP 27x has the Display Port and this is essential for NVIDIA cards to work with AMD FreeSync. The minimum response rate of AOpen 27MX1 is 1 ms, which is 133 % faster than the HP 27x . AOpen 27MX1 has lower total input lag than HP 27x . For the average response rate, the AOpen 27MX1 scores 1.5 ms, which is faster than the HP 27x . To compensate for graphically demanding games, the AOpen 27MX1 has better low end adaptive refresh rate of 48 Hz that can adapt to more lower frame rate drops.

27" AOpen 27MX1

The AOpen 27MX1 is a relatively new monitor. The monitor has a VESA mount. AOpen 27MX1 has a total input lag of 12 ms, which is excellent among the competition. For the average response rate, the AOpen 27MX1 scores 1.5 ms, which ensures effective synchronization with the high refresh rate. The minimum response rate of AOpen 27MX1 is 1 ms, which is eliminates ghosting effects. With the AMD FreeSync support, this monitor is compatible with both AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards. Graphically demanding games may cause frame drops outside the adative refresh rate of 48 Hz. The monitor has an unimpressive contrast ratio of 1000 : 1. For graphics color quality, the AOpen 27MX1 has an average color depth of 6 -bit, resulting in dithered gradients and more slightly less accurate colors. The brightness of AOpen 27MX1 is lower than other monitors. The AOpen 27MX1 has a maximum refresh rate of 75 Hz and this may be too low for the extremely fast frame rates in competitive games. The monitor uses a TN panel which suffers from color shifting when viewed from horizontal and vertical angles and has slightly washed colors compared to IPS and VA panels. The AOpen 27MX1 has no Display Port and which is essential for NVIDIA cards to work with AMD FreeSync. In terms of pixel density, the AOpen 27MX1 has an low density of 81 pixels-per-inch, resulting in pixelated text and picture quality.

27" HP 27x

For graphics color quality, the HP 27x has an excellent color depth of 8 -bit, resulting in smoother gradients and more accurate colors. The HP 27x has the Display Port and this is essential for NVIDIA cards to work with AMD FreeSync. For the extremely fast frame rates, the HP 27x has a maximum refresh rate of 144 Hz that allows smoother gameplay. The HP 27x is a relatively new monitor. The monitor panel has good viewing angles and offers better contrast and colors than TN panels. With the AMD FreeSync support, this monitor is compatible with both AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards. HP 27x has an excellent contrast ratio of 3000 : 1. The brightness of HP 27x is lower than other monitors. For the average response rate, the HP 27x scores 14 ms, which can cause motion blurring due to ineffective synchronization with the high refresh rate. HP 27x has a total input lag of 24.5 ms, which is bad among the competition. The minimum response rate of HP 27x is 5 ms, which is can cause ghosting effects. The monitor does not have a VESA mount. Graphically demanding games may cause frame drops outside the adative refresh rate of 144 Hz. In terms of pixel density, the HP 27x has an low density of 81 pixels-per-inch, resulting in pixelated text and picture quality.
