  • Our take on the Cooler Master Tempest GP27Q

    The Tempest GP27Q is a 27-inch 1440p IPS gaming monitor running at 165Hz with a 1ms response time. Its headline feature is a mini-LED backlight with hundreds of dimming zones, which gives it far deeper blacks and brighter highlights than the edge-lit IPS panels most rivals at this size use. That makes it a strong pick for HDR gaming and for mixed use in a bright room. The trade-offs are typical of mini-LED: some blooming around bright objects on dark scenes, and a bulky, power-hungry design. Reviewers rate its color and motion handling highly for the class.

    Questions and answers

    Is the mini-LED backlight worth it over a regular IPS monitor?
    Yes, if you care about HDR. The local dimming gives much deeper blacks and brighter highlights than edge-lit IPS panels. If you mostly play SDR games, the gap is smaller.
    Does it work well with a PS5 or Xbox Series X?
    It accepts 1440p at high refresh over HDMI, which suits current consoles. Check that your console firmware supports 1440p output, since not every mode does.
    How bad is the blooming?
    It shows around bright objects on dark scenes, such as subtitles or UI elements. It is less noticeable in bright rooms and in normal gameplay than in test patterns.
    Do I need to calibrate it?
    Out of the box it is usable, but HDR looks better after adjusting brightness and local dimming. A basic calibration improves SDR accuracy too.
    What connections does it have?
    It offers DisplayPort and HDMI inputs plus a USB hub, enough for a PC and a console at once. Check the exact port list for your region's model.
    Is 1440p at 27 inches sharp enough?
    Yes. At this size 1440p is crisp for games and desktop work, and it is easier to drive than 4K at 165Hz.
