27" AOpen 27ML1 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 has a VESA mount. The monitor panel has good viewing angles and offers better contrast and colors than TN panels. The AOpen 27ML1 is a relatively new monitor. For graphics color quality, the AOpen 27ML1 has an average color depth of 6 -bit, resulting in dithered gradients and more slightly less accurate colors. AOpen 27ML1 has a total input lag of 22.5 ms, which is bad among the competition. The monitor has an unimpressive contrast ratio of 1000 : 1. For the average response rate, the AOpen 27ML1 scores 12 ms, which can cause motion blurring due to ineffective synchronization with the high refresh rate. Graphically demanding games may cause frame drops outside the adative refresh rate of 75 Hz. The brightness of AOpen 27ML1 is lower than other monitors. In terms of pixel density, the AOpen 27ML1 has an low density of 81 pixels-per-inch, resulting in pixelated text and picture quality. The AOpen 27ML1 has no Display Port and which is essential for NVIDIA cards to work with AMD FreeSync. The minimum response rate of AOpen 27ML1 is 5 ms, which is can cause ghosting effects. The AOpen 27ML1 has a maximum refresh rate of 75 Hz and this may be too low for the extremely fast frame rates in competitive games.
