About this product
The KTC H27S17 is a 27-inch LED-backlit LCD gaming monitor with 180Hz refresh rate (listed as 165Hz in specs) and 1ms response time. It supports 2560x1440 resolution, but title says 1080p – likely a mistake. Features include HDMI input, 350 cd/m² brightness, 1000:1 contrast ratio, and a widescreen format. It carries a 3-year warranty and is Energy Star rated. At $75, it's very affordable.
Our take
This KTC H27S17 seems like a budget monitor that's hard to beat at $75. It offers a 165Hz refresh rate (180Hz in title, but specs say 165Hz) and 1ms response, which is great for fast games. The resolution is listed as 2560x1440 but the title says 1080p – quite confusing. The build feels cheap, and the stand is basic. The 350-nit brightness is okay, but colors aren't very vibrant. If you need a cheap high-refresh monitor, this works, but expect budget compromises. The 3-year warranty is a nice bonus.
