Having been acquired by HP in 2021, HyperX later announced that they would be expanding their gaming lineup.
The Armada 27 has improved picture quality with a QHD HDR 400 display but is limited to 165Hz.
So why would you choose this?
Shared with the Armada 27 is the input selection: one DisplayPort 1.4 and two HDMI 2.0 ports.
Higher refresh rates will only be possible using a PC with DisplayPort.
HyperX believes their new monitors offer added value and convenience that some gamers will appreciate.
The Armada arm attaches to the back of your desk using its included C-clamp.
With the arm installed, the monitor similarly clips onto to the VESA mount and locks in.
The arm held the monitor in place each time without a hint of unwanted movement.
The arm also has built-in cable management for keeping your desk more tidy.
You’re also limited to the one monitor, with no option to expand capabilities in future.
Everything felt fluid when hitting 220-240 FPS in games like Overwatch 2.
With G-SYNC, there wasn’t any noticeable tearing, and images on screen looked sharp without any blur.
You could easily save over $200 by choosing another option.
Perhaps as the Armada lineup matures, we’ll see the pricing become more competitive.
