Product Overview

Cooler Master GM27-CF is a mainstream 27-inch FHD 1500R-curved gaming monitor in Cooler Master's 2020 lineup. It is powered by a basic 8-bit VA panel that reaches 165 Hz refresh rate.
Its 1500R curvature provides a more immersive visual experience. In terms of color reproduction, one can expect above average performance. The included stand comes with tilt, swivel, and height adjustments that make for a more ergonomic viewing experience. Additionally, this monitor can get quite contrasty. It also comes with build-in speakers that make media consumption in a pinch an effortless experience.
In terms of drawbacks, this monitor lacks HDR support. Further, the 8-bit panel is rather limiting in terms of color reproduction.

Reviewer score 80% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from tomshardware have found:
Calibration controls are included, along with gaming features like aim points and FreeSync. There is no blur-reduction, and overclocking must be done in Windows Control Panel. With adjustments, the picture was very good with deep blacks and highlights that pop. The extra-wide color gamut added a nice visual pop.
Pros
  • Super-fast gaming performance
  • Super-wide color gamut
  • Excellent image quality
Cons
  • No sRGB or G-Sync
  • No overclock option
