Overview

Colour technology is what the Gigabyte AORUS Elite FO27Q28G vs Gigabyte GO27Q24A decision turns on. The GO27Q24A swaps standard OLED for QD-OLED, still at 26.5 inches and 2560 x 1440 with a 0.03 ms response, but runs 48-240 Hz, 99% DCI-P3 and 200 nits typical. It lists 6-axis colour control and AI Black Equalizer, a 5.77 kg stand, and only two HDMI inputs and a DisplayPort. The FO27Q28G reaches 280 Hz and 99.5% DCI-P3 and adds a 15W USB-C port, with AI OLED Care Pro and both variable-refresh standards, so it is the more connected of the two.
