27" HP 27f gaming monitor performance benchmarks: response, input and full specs review

With the AMD FreeSync support, this monitor is compatible with both AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards. The monitor panel has good viewing angles and offers better contrast and colors than TN panels. The HP 27f is a relatively new monitor. The HP 27f has a maximum refresh rate of 75 Hz and this may be too low for the extremely fast frame rates in competitive games. Graphically demanding games may cause frame drops outside the adative refresh rate of 48 Hz. The minimum response rate of HP 27f is 5 ms, which is can cause ghosting effects. The monitor does not have a VESA mount. HP 27f has a total input lag of 29 ms, which is bad among the competition. For the average response rate, the HP 27f scores 14 ms, which can cause motion blurring due to ineffective synchronization with the high refresh rate. In terms of pixel density, the HP 27f has an low density of 81 pixels-per-inch, resulting in pixelated text and picture quality. For graphics color quality, the HP 27f has an average color depth of 6 -bit, resulting in dithered gradients and more slightly less accurate colors. The HP 27f has no Display Port and which is essential for NVIDIA cards to work with AMD FreeSync. The brightness of HP 27f is lower than other monitors. The monitor has an unimpressive contrast ratio of 1000 : 1.
