The Dell G2722HS’s pixel response time is fantastic if your framerate is high enough. The Fast setting from the overdrive is the best option since it doesn’t add overshoot while cleaning up the already very minor persistence. Setting it higher will introduce overshoot, so we highly advise against using the Super Fast and Extreme levels. Goods by Delivery Only: The goods advertised above are supplied direct by Dell New Zealand Limited BN 425354. They are sold direct from the factory to the customer. Dim or discolored video can be caused by the video cable, so try reseating the cable and swapping with a known good part. Hard drive retention: Hard drive retention is not available on models with a soldered hard drive, including XPS 9315 2in1, Chromebooks or Venue tablets, except the Venue 11 Pro. The Dell G2722HS is compatible with both FreeSync and G-Sync so you won’t be left without Adaptive Sync’s protection from tearing and stuttering. Being compatible with both is a must-have since there is no guarantee which GPU you will upgrade to from time to time. Input lag sits at 4ms at 165Hz, indicating that the monitor is good for E-Sports or competitive-level gaming. Thoughts on the Dell G2722HS

Calibrating the monitor reduced its dE average to a fantastic 0.44 which makes it suitable for professional purposes. However, colorimeters aren’t cheap and some of them are even more expensive than the G2722HS. It is worth it if you will earn money with this monitor, but we recommend saving the money for the colorimeter and putting it towards a prosumer monitor with a higher resolution.

Of course, a larger 27″ screen can make the overall viewing experience more immersive even if you don’t get as crisp details, so it’s still worth considering for those who don’t mind the low pixel density and would rather have a bigger display.

inch monitors like this one aren’t gigantic by today’s standards, but those with small desks in apartments or dorms might disagree. The display is two feet wide so it can still cover speakers on a narrow desk. The hexagon-shaped base eats up almost ten inches of depth, but at least the monitor is light enough to be carried around easily.

Its build quality is great even if the device is mostly made out of plastic that had a bit of flex on the larger parts. We didn’t see any cosmetic defects on any of its parts such as uneven seams or gaps between the pieces. The included stand feels a bit rough when you try to adjust it, but it is stable and firm so the screen won’t wobble or sag while you are gaming. While watching movies or playing games, this isn’t as obvious, though you will have to use anti-aliasing to mask some low-resolution artifacts in games, such as jagged lines (also known as the staircase effect). NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Certification and AMD FreeSync Premium Technology minimizes graphic distortions like screen tearing and stuttering for smoother, fluid gameplay. The screen has a light matte anti-glare coating that prevents reflections without adding too much graininess to the picture. The Super Fast and Extreme modes are too aggressive as they add noticeable inverse ghosting (pixel overshoot).
