Black Friday deals are starting early, and this monitor price stands out. PC Gamer reports that Newegg is selling the Gigabyte G27Q20 for $129 as a daily doorbuster in its early Black Friday sale

It is a 27 inch IPS gaming monitor with a 1440p resolution, a 200Hz refresh rate that can be overclocked to 210Hz, and a 0.5ms grey to grey response time. That is a strong set of specifications for the money

The normal list price is $219.99, and it had already been on sale for $150. The doorbuster price is time limited and only while stocks last

PC Gamer expects the price to go back to about $150 once the deal ends. That makes $129 a strong bargain for anyone ready to buy now

A 1440p high refresh monitor for under $130 would have seemed impossible a few years ago. Gigabyte's budget monitors have a good reputation for value. For anyone still gaming on a 1080p 60Hz screen, this is a big upgrade for not much money

Is 1440p at 200Hz the sweet spot for most gamers? And are you planning any Black Friday upgrades?

I bench press excuses more than actual weights

IPS at this price will have some glow in dark scenes. That is normal. For most games it does not matter. Colours will still beat cheap VA panels
I read every reply. Even the bad ones.

Sounds tempting, but cheap panels often hide quirks that only show up after a few weeks of use.

The G27Q20 from Gigabyte will deliver 200Hz, yet uniformity and colour accuracy can be hit‑or‑miss at this price point; you might end up chasing a better‑priced VA model that trades a few Hz for deeper blacks. Stock won't last long, so weigh whether you need the raw speed or a more balanced picture ;).
