HDR displays have been one of the growing trends in the monitor market over the last few years. We know what OLED and premium mini-LED screens can deliver, but they are still very expensive and out of reach for most mainstream consumers. Not so with the Cooler Master GP2711, however, offering a mini-LED display with 576 dimming zones, for less than £380 here in the UK. But just how well does it perform? Find out in today's review.
Alongside its HDR chops, the Cooler Master GP2711 features a VA panel with a quantum dot layer, promising very wide gamut support. It also offers a claimed 3000:1 contrast ratio, 165Hz refresh rate and 4ms GtG response time. All of that in a monitor that is retailing for £379 certainly seems like an attractive deal on paper – so let's find out just how good it is.
