Cooler Master have today announced a range of new monitors in their line-up. We reviewed both of their current models last year, the 27″ Cooler Master GM27-CF and the 34″ ultrawide Cooler Master GM34-CW. Today new models in their GM series are the 27″ 1440p 165Hz GM27-FQS, the 27″ 1080p 240Hz GM27-CFX, the 32″ 1440p 165Hz GM32-FQ and the 34″ ultrawide 1440p 144Hz GM34-CWQ . These models are aimed at a “work and play” setup, designed to support your gaming and work needs. A run down of each model and their specs follows.

Cooler Master GM27-FQS

This is a 27″ sized model with a flat format IPS-type panel. It offers a 2560 x 1440 resolution combined with a 165Hz refresh rate. The high refresh rate is supported by adaptive-sync for VRR from both AMD and NVIDIA systems. Cooler Master talk about an expected ‘G-sync Compatible’ certification in the press material as well.

There is also a 1ms G2G and 1ms MPRT response time spec, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 300 cd/m2 brightness, 178/178 viewing angles, 8-bit+FRC colour depth and a wide colour gamut covering 90% DCI-P3. For connectivity there are 1x DisplayPort (v1.4 we believe) and 2x HDMI 2.0 provided along with a pair of USB ports. A full range of tilt, height, swivel and rotate adjustments are offered from the stand. The GM27-FQS is expected in Q4 2021 at an MSRP of $449 USD
