Review: Really good HDR, but very poor mixed usage. - First, the good. The monitor is bright. It will give you a true HDR experience only really surpassed by an OLED (which personally I'd never want to use as a monitor due to eventual burn in). The problems start when you start doing non-HDR content while in HDR mode. Which you wouldn't think would be a problem till you realize basically all your computer software is SDR. Not too many games, although more and more are, support it and most desktop software will only use SDR. SDR content is very washed out. Seems to be a saturation or gamma issue as you can mostly compensate by turning down the Black Adjustment setting, but that starts to dim the high end of the brightness scale fairly noticeably. If that was all, I could make due with enough calibration and other tweaking. However there are two problems I just can't ignore. First, half the time when setting my Refresh Rate to 160 Hz the monitor and my other two monitors just shut off and never recover. I have to hard restart my computer by holding the power button. Then like 50% it'll come back up at 60 Hz or at 160 Hz. And it'll just randomly boot in 60 Hz after having been set to 160 Hz. I also had one time where the Nvidia Control Panel could not detect Adaptive Sync Support. I didn't have these problems when just using 120 Hz or 144 Hz. The final nail in the coffin was the local dimming behavior on SDR content. It was almost like the local dimming logic inverted on SDR content. Watch and HDR video and it is near perfect, but just browsing the web and go on a site with Dark Mode and you see the issue right away. The easiest way to test is to show an image with like a 70% gray. If you mouse over the image you can see as a local dimming zone dims as the mouse passes through it. That's not how that works. The mouse is pure white, you should instead see a halo as the dimming zone is brighter than all the ones around it due to the mouse cursor. That is just unacceptable and the only way to "fix" it is disabling local dimming which ruins your blacks, which is kind of the point with HDR. Ultimately it is this last point that forced my hand to return the monitor. 4/5 for Gaming, only loses the 5th start due to the issue with 160 Hz 1/5 for Picture quality, would be 0 if I could, for the issues with SDR (for the desaturation and local dimming issue) 5/5 for Brightness, because it really does get BRIGHT The other Review: Best 4k Gaming Monitor - I purchased a few 4k gaming monitors and this one clearly outshined the others. The HDR gaming picture is incredible and the colours are very bright. There were some firmware issues early on but those have all been resolved. There are issues with local dimming on HDR if you're working. I noticed heavy blooming using VS Code in dark mode. I use SDR mode for productivity, and HDR for gaming. I have a 27" Asus TUF 1080p gaming monitor I use as a second monitor and the text looks so grainy compared to how smooth the text is on this monitor your think the 1080 monitor had some kind of issue. IMO This is the best 27" 4k gaming monitor on the market right now. ## Features - 4K WUHD Resolution: The 4K WUHD 3840 x 2160 resolution offers extra screen-real estate for increased multi-tasking efficiency.. - Ultra-Speed IPS: Utilizing an ultra-speed IPS panel allows the pixels to transition faster than in traditional IPS panels, providing a 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms (GtG) pixel response time. - Speed Lives Here: Finally, no more lagging.

Positives - INNOCOOL / CM was great to deal with. I had an issue with my order and they stayed in contact with me the whole time until it was resolved. - Amazon CS created the mess in the first place, promising that XYZ was going to happen multiple steps along the way. They were wrong every time, again luckily the 3rd party stepped in and took care of it. - Display - It looks great! i'd compare getting a "true" HDR10 display coming from SDR alienware UW like DVD > BluRay. - HDR - HDR10 movies are incredible, HDR native games are incredible, Auto-HDR is pretty cool and W11 native hdr is kind of annoying and inconsistent. Not CM's fault though. (tip win/alt/b = turn on and off HDR) - Price - I think the price is perfect and even a bit lower than it should be for the quality of the display. I have 0 dead pixels, and the refresh testing came out great. - Color Calibration - This monitor comes with color calibration straight out of the box, included is a print out of the results too. Great touch IMO. Negatives - This monitor is getting a firmware update in early/mid November. Via a CM rep on reddit... my 5 star rating is under the assumption that the below will be fixed. - You currently can not enable local dimming & async. Refer to the above on it though, I'm not too worried. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cooler Master Tempest GP27U 27" 4K UHD 3840 x 2160 Quantum Dot MiniLED Gaming Monitor, HDR1000 Ready, FreeSync/G-Sync, 160Hz, 1ms Response, 98% DCI-P3, VESA Mounting Tilt & Swivel Adjustment,Black - IVANKY 8K DisplayPort Cable 1.4, VESA Certified DP Cable 6.6ft (8K@60Hz, 4K@144Hz, 2K@240Hz)HBR3 Support 32.4Gbps, HDR, HDCP 2.2, FreeSync G-Sync, Braided Display Port for Gaming Monitor, Graphics, PC - Capshi 8K 4K DisplayPort Cable 1.4, 6.6FT DP Cord (VESA Certified, 8K@60Hz, 4K@144Hz, 2K@240Hz/165Hz), 32.4Gbps High Speed Display Port Cable for Gaming Monitor, HDR/FreeSync/G-Sync, Braided, Grey --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/578804535-cooler-master-tempest-gp27u-27-4k-uhd-3840-x-2160](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/578804535-cooler-master-tempest-gp27u-27-4k-uhd-3840-x-2160) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-11-01*
