ViewSonic VX2716-2KC-PRO with 27″ Curved VA Panel, 1440p and 240Hz Refresh Rate

Share this content

ViewSonic are set to release a new model in their gaming display line-up and have recently presented the VX2716-2KC-PRO. This is a 27″ sized screen with a VA technology panel and a steep 1000R curvature. It offers a 2560 x 1440 resolution along with a 240Hz refresh rate much like the popular Samsung Odyssey G7. The high refresh rate is supported by adaptive sync for VRR from both NVIDIA and AMD systems.

The VX2716-2KC-PRO offers a 27″ VA technology panel with a 2560 x 1440 resolution, advertised 1ms G2G response time, 2500:1 contrast ratio, 400 cd/m2 brightness, 178/178 viewing angles, 8-bit colour depth and a colour gamut covering 95% BT.709 (the same colour space as sRGB) according to the spec page. The high native 240Hz refresh rate is supported by Adaptive-sync for VRR from NVIDIA and AMD systems.

The screen is certified under the HDR 600 standard as confirmed by VESA’s website, meaning there is some local dimming (basic edge lit with a limited number of zones) along with the required 600 nits+ peak brightness. This would also mean that despite the somewhat confusing spec page from ViewSonic, it must also have a wide colour space with >90% DCI-P3 and acceptance of a 10-bit colour depth.

The stand provides tilt, height, swivel and rotate adjustments. There are 1x DisplayPort 1.4, 2x HDMI 2.0 and 1x USB-C (65W PD and DP Alt mode) connections provided along with a headphone jack. There are also integrated 2x 3W speakers on this model.


The VX2716-2KC-Pro is listed on ViewSonic’s Chinese site here. More details on regional availability and pricing when we get it.
