Is the LG 27GN800-B good for gaming?

Yes. It pairs a 144Hz refresh rate with a 1ms response time and QHD resolution, which suits fast PC and console games. It has no adaptive-sync issues worth worrying about, but it is not a premium HDR gaming display.

Does it have built-in speakers or USB-C?

No. It has two HDMI inputs and one DisplayPort only, with no speakers, USB-C or USB hub. You will need separate speakers or headphones and a USB-C adapter if your laptop relies on it.

Can I adjust the height of the stand?

No. The included stand only tilts. For height, swivel or pivot you need a VESA monitor arm or a different stand, since the monitor is VESA compatible.

Is 1440p worth it on a 27-inch screen?

Yes. At 27 inches, 2560x1440 gives a noticeably sharper image and more desktop space than 1080p, and it is easier to drive than 4K at high frame rates.

Does it work with a PS5 or Xbox Series X?

Yes, over HDMI. The consoles can output 1440p, and the monitor accepts it at up to 120Hz, though some console features like variable refresh rate depend on the console's settings.

Is the screen glossy or matte?

It is matte. The anti-glare coating reduces reflections, which helps in bright rooms, at a slight cost to perceived contrast.
