NZXT Canvas 27F 240Hz Full HD Gaming Monitor Review

Display Analysis

Throwing the Spyder monitor analysis tool onto the NZXT 27F showed some pretty promising results. The specifications promised DCI-P3 89%, sRGB 99%, and it looks to be right on track, actually, we got 100% of sRGB, rather than 99%, and DCI-P3 maxes that 89% in HDR mode too, but while not a high-end video editing level of colour, it’s certainly plenty for daily PC usage and gaming.

The monitor has multiple gamma settings, it’s set to 2.2 by default, and as you can see, it’s nearly perfectly sitting on that line on the graph, so I didn’t feel the need to make any adjustments here.

The grey ramp looks like it is all over the place, but the maximum deviation is actually only around 25 Kelvin, which is insanely stable. Most “good” monitors can see shifts of up to a couple of hundred, so this is very impressive overall.

Overall, colour accuracy is excellent, anything under Delta-E of 5 is regarded as good, under 3 is excellent, and most of these are 1 or less, which is astounding. The blue is showing high, but still, it’s a good number. You can set the colour temperature to warm and use the reduce blue light feature to dial in what feels right to you. However, as much as the sensor says the blue is prominent, objectively, I thought the monitor had a nicely balanced colour palette.
