The Gigabyte G32QC is a great budget gaming monitor with good dark room performance. It delivers an immersive experience with its large 32-inch screen and 1440p resolution and good picture quality with its high contrast ratio and good color accuracy. Its low input lag and 165Hz refresh rate make gaming feel incredibly responsive, and it has native FreeSync support and G-SYNC compatibility. It supports HDR10 and delivers an okay HDR experience despite the absence of local dimming. It comes with a couple of USB ports and some extra gaming features, and its Picture-by-Picture mode is an excellent addition for multitaskers and streamers.

  • GIGABYTE OSD Sidekick allows you to set the display options with keyboard and mouse, giving you the easiest way to adjust monitor settings.
  • Black equalizer: this feature allows you to have more details of the dark side without overexposing the bright side at the same time.
  • Dashboard: the dashboard reveals your real-time hardware information, including CPU voltages, clock speed, temperatures, etc. The best part is that any games won’t block it.

Downsides

Verdict

The Gigabyte G32QC is a great gaming monitor. It has excellent motion handling thanks to its fast response time and high refresh rate, and it has native FreeSync support and G-SYNC compatibility. Sadly, its narrow viewing angle makes it less ideal for co-op gaming, and even though its high contrast ratio is well-suited for dark rooms, there’s a lot of backlight bleed.
