IN THEORY, the new Dell S2722DGM is pretty much the perfect affordable gaming monitor. It’s fast, cheap, has plenty of pixels, decent panel spec, and doesn’t bother with frills and features that add little to the gaming experience.
It’s built around a 1440p 27-inch VA panel with decent specifications. VA tech tends to be cheaper than IPS and with that come pros and cons. The most obvious advantage is static contrast. Dell rates this monitor at 3,000:1, which is almost three times better than any IPS monitor. However, despite the strong contrast, this is a straight-up SDR display with no HDR support. We’re fine with that, given most so-called HDR PC monitors are nothing of the sort. Brightness is pegged at 350nits, which is fine for an SDR display.
