27-inch QHD gaming monitor

The Pixio PX278 Wave Purple is a 27-inch Fast IPS display built for competitive gaming at 2560 x 1440 resolution. Its 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms GTG response time target players who want smooth motion in fast-paced titles. The purple chassis and 3-sided frameless design suit setups that prioritise a coordinated look.

Check DP 1.4 for 180Hz

To reach the full 180Hz you need a DisplayPort 1.4 connection; HDMI 2.0 caps the refresh rate at 144Hz. Verify your graphics card has a free DP 1.4 port and that your cable meets the same standard. The monitor covers 96.5% DCI-P3 and 135.76% sRGB, so confirm your content workflow can use that gamut.

Upgrade from 60Hz or 1080p panels

Moving from a standard 60Hz office monitor or a 1080p screen adds both higher pixel density and a much faster refresh window. The jump is worth it when you play competitive shooters or need sharper text for creative work. If you already own a 144Hz QHD panel the gain is smaller and may not justify the swap.

Questions about this item

Does the monitor include a stand, or will I need a separate VESA mount?

The monitor ships with a stand; a VESA‑compatible arm or shelf can be added later if you prefer a different mounting style

Which cable do I need to reach the full 180 Hz refresh rate at 1440p?

Use a DisplayPort 1.4 cable for 180 Hz; HDMI 2.0 is limited to 144 Hz at the same resolution

How much desk depth does the 27‑inch screen require?

The 27‑inch panel itself is shallow; allow extra depth for the included stand base or for a monitor arm if you choose one
