Exc Monitor; Use DisplayPort for Max Refresh Rate

Starting out of the box, this monitor is easy to assemble with the arm snapping onto the screen and the base plate having a toggle screw to attach it to the arm. No tools required. The monitor can be tilted, height adjusted and also rotated to portrait type orientation.
The specs are all high end, although I do have a caveat. The 240Hz refresh rate is only by DisplayPort connection. If you connect to your desktop/laptop by HDMI the refresh rate is limited to 144Hz. The 1ms response time and G-Sync/FreeSync Premium ensures you will get smooth gameplay at high frame rates with either an Nvidia GeForce or AMD Radeon GPU. My favorite game, War Thunder, plays flawlessly on this monitor with my Nvidia GeForce GPU powered laptop.
The panel/display type is IPS/LCD, which is ideal for gaming. The screen resolution is QHD, 2560 x 1440, giving it excellent clarity, and the colors are rich and bright. The monitor is also HDR capable but turning it on I could not see any difference in depth and richness of color no matter the color setting (Native, Standard, RTS/RPG, etc.) on the monitor. Researching this I learned that only on OLED monitors do you really get the benefit of HDR. So don't choose this monitor based on its HDR capability.
The monitor has an RGB square (standing on one corner) light ring surrounding the back panel mount. It can be somewhat customized with the panel toggle control but to really get the most out of it download the Omen Gaming Hub to get the Omen Light Studio. The Omen Light Studio enables layering of lighting effects along with enabling those same effects on some compatible devices, like my Razer Deathadder V2 mouse. The effects are really cool!
Ports include 1 x DisplayPort 1.4, 2 x HDMI 2.0 and a USB hub with 2 x USB-A 3.0 and 1 x USB-B for power. A DisplayPort Cable and USB Type A to B cable are included with the monitor.
Dual 3-watt speakers provide the audio. The sound is typical of monitor speakers, okay for watching videos but for gaming, music, or action movies, you'll want to use headphones or an external speaker system.
Overall, this is an excellent gaming monitor, (noting that refresh rate is limited to 144HZ with an HDMI connection) that gives smooth gameplay with vivid color and excellent clarity.

I've been a Samsung gaming monitor user for a bit but I got a chance to try out this HP Omen monitor and have been quite impressed so far.
From the get go, it has the usual ports and such you'll find on any monitor out there. This does have 2 HDMI slots as well as a DisplayPort 1.4 port. The speakers on this are OK I'd say. I normally play with a headset so I generally don't use, or care, about any built-in speakers on monitors. That said, they provide decent enough sound if that's what yo8're using during gameplay.
Screen is bright and offers pretty good color. The 280Hz refresh rate is nice. It's faster than my current Samsung Odyssey at 240Hz. Not noticeably different but still plenty fast enough for my system. Comes with HDMI, DisplayPort and USB cables out of the box so you're ready to plug in and get gaming. The RGB on the back is a nice touch too although I'm unable to see it the way my desk is currently setup.
Overall, very nice primary monitor for gaming. Only con is that there is no side to side adjustment on this monitor; only up and down. Might be a big deal for you or not. Since I usually mount my monitors to arms on my desk, this isn't an issue for me.

Omen 27 Inch Monitor

The Omen 27-inch IPS 280Hz Monitor was shipped in its original box. It was well packaged as per the Omen standard. This is a 2K 2560 by 1440 resolution monitor. The monitor has 2 internal speakers. These speakers are on the low end and sound tinny. When the monitor was plugged into the gaming computer, the better speakers were turned off and the Omen speakers took over. To get the best out of this monitor I would suggest you hook up the display using the Data Port connection. If you don’t have a Data Port connection on your computer, I would recommend the use of an HDMI cable. Utilizing the Data Port connection allows for use of the maximum refresh rate. The monitor has on the back the following ports.
1 Display Port
2 HDMI
2 USB Type A
1 USB Type B
Overall, for an IPS monitor this is a good starting point. The Omen Application for the Microsoft Store allows you to adjust the monitor to your liking. You can also download various games from within the application. I am completely happy with this monitor.

Im someone who is not ready to switch to OLED and i dont think mini LED IPS monitors are there yet either. I had some budget 1440p LG 144hz monitors ans they were good enough. But man these are just so vastly superior to those. Maybe its that IPS Black 2000:1 contrast vs the standard 1000:1 (my lg never really did above 800 though) but the darks are definitely darker and the display is brighter and more colorful. Dead space remake, space marine 2, cp2077, helldivers 2, darktide all looked amazing on this screen. Honestly if you arent sold on mini LED or OLED. This is probably the best monitor to get today to avoid those. Hopefully RTINGS.com does a full review
