Cooler Master may be relatively new to the monitor market, but they have consistently delivered some of the best gaming monitors I’ve ever tested… and I’ve tested quite a lot! That’s not bad for the new kid on the block, but whatever they’re doing it’s working. Their new monitor is the Cooler Master GM27-CQS and it’s basically the little brother of the mini-LED GP27Q model we tested recently, it actually looks pretty much the same and has the same refresh rate and resolution too. However, the Mini-LED comes in at the best part of £500 (or £800 for the 4K version), while this new model ditches the mini-LED backlight trickery for a more conventional VA panel which drops a few hundred quid off the price at the same time.
GM27-CQS utilizes an ultra-speed VA panel with an ultra-responsive 165Hz refresh rate and 0.5ms pixel response time. Featuring a 1500R curvature, the GM27-CQS supports 120% of sRGB and 90% of DCI-P3 colour spectrums. So while it may be a step down from the Mini-LED, it’s still a top-tier gaming monitor in its respective class. Whatever Cooler Master are doing though, they’re continuously delivering monitors at competitive prices with fantastic class-leading colour reproduction and great gaming performance, so I have big expectations for their GM27-CQS today.

GM27-CQS is a fully featured gaming monitor with all the specifications you’d expect for a high-tier gaming monitor. Using an ultra-speed VA panel gets you extreme motion performance with deeper blacks for stunning levels of contrast. Combine this with a WQHD resolution panel, 165Hz refresh rate, 0.5ms response time, and FreeSync Premium for a premium gaming experience like none other.
