About this deal

Its also common to hear or read about complaints regarding the sharpness of full HD monitors in this size which equates to a lower pixel density the usual. However, we don’t think pixelation or fuzziness will be a problem if you sit at a moderate distance from the Samsung C27RG50. There is a bit of image softening, but it gets difficult to notice the more you focus on the game you are engaged with.

seen out of the box and leaving us with only a minor 1% error. The white point was also now improved to 6511k already know the gamma is quite a way off, and white point a bit too warm. There was no sign of any colour banding when testing gradients which was good in the 'normal' colour temp preset mode. The display was set with a modest 50% brightness which was the equivalent of more than 2 frames at a refresh rate of 120Hz - Some noticeable lag in daily usage, not

Samsung C27RG50 Specifications

There is a fix, you have to make a custom resolution in NVidia control panel and set the refresh rate to 201hz. The prof. industri standard is to calibrate a monitor towards 120 nits…..and I would personally appreciate a contrast quote on that level, instead of using something “stupid” like contrast at max screen brithness level……which nobody uses for prolonged work/gaming as that would burn the eye bulbs. And is why I think a 120 nits calibration is more usefull in a practical user setting! 😉 I ended up buying this monitor because of this review, and I have to say I'm extremely disappointed in the G-Sync capabilities. It has terrible inverse ghosting/overshoot. This is with an EVGA RTX 2070 through displayport @ 240hz.

There is lots and lots of free monitor tools available on the internet, so it should be easy to add more remarks about technical details in the perceived image quality, as the reviewer! I even tried using CRU to limit the VRR range to force it to double but it ends up looking extremely smeary and feeling rather slow, regular 240hz mode is better (which isn't saying much). The Samsung C27RG50 is a FreeSync gaming monitor, but it’s also G-Sync compatible so both sides of GPU users can use VRR. Games are smooth and buttery at 240Hz, but you need more than a decent GPU to run modern games at 200 FPS and above. Input lag sits at 4ms at 240Hz, so there is no blame delays or “de-synced” instances if you get fragged first. Thoughts on the Samsung C27RG50

Terms & Conditions

But in reality, the Samsung C27RG50 does have decent build quality thanks to its durable materials and well-designed body. The plastics used are not brittle and there is no flexing, plus the seams match each other evenly. The stand also slightly wobbles, but it isn’t strong or noticeable enough to be a cause for concern. The only caveat you have to live with if you buy the Samsung C27RG50 is its limited functionality in the physical aspect. The tilt-only stand limits your setup options, while the selective connectivity layout leaves out a lot of peripherals and older machines. However, we think these exclusions are minor and outweighed by the image quality and gaming performance of this variant.

news at the default settings (in gamma mode 1), although there was some typical gradation in darker tones evident.How does something like this get labeled as G-Sync compatible; the fact that you can physically enable the feature? The default gamma curve of 1.9 had been improved to 2.2 average, correcting most of the 13% deviance we'd We also did not notice any blurring on the Samsung C27RG50 if it’s running at 240Hz. The screen doesn’t require specialized blur reduction implementations such as ULMB, which is often required for VA models while also incurring an additional cost. TN variants are still faster in this regard, but the CRG5 blurs the lines in comparison. The Samsung C27RG50 produces excellent color, starting with its 105% coverage of the sRGB gamut. You also don’t have to calibrate or even switch color temperatures, since the default profile already has a DeltaE of 1.5 which makes it comparable to some professional monitors. Color temperature is slightly cooler than the 6500K point, but it’s not noticeable and bothersome during use.
