These are parts of the same finish, not separately evidenced colour variants.","panel_type":"Exact leaflet specifies Fast VA and WLED. WLED does not identify edge versus direct illumination, so the backlight layout remains unavailable. Maker gamut entries are sRGB 124.2% and DCI-P 3 92.4% CIE 1976 without an explicit coverage-versus-volume definition. They are not converted into coverage fields.","static_contrast_ratio":"Explicit static 4000:1. Separate dynamic 80 M:1 claim is excluded.","brightness_typical_nits":"Maker 300 cd/m² rating. PC Gamer describes the same claimed rating as full-screen brightness. It is not promoted into a HDR-peak claim.","response_time_gtg_ms":"Maker up-to 1 ms grey-to-grey claim. Overdrive and transition endpoint are not specified for the claim.","response_time_mprt_ms":"Maker 0.3 ms moving-picture response claim. This is separate from grey-to-grey response.","flicker_free":"Normal non-strobed operating claim. Deliberate MBR backlight strobing has separate conditions.","vrr_technologies":"Exact leaflet expressly names Adaptive Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium. Generic compatibility does not establish NVIDIA G-SYNC certification or VESA AdaptiveSync Display certification.","low_framerate_compensation":"Exact model leaflet FreeSync Premium narrative expressly describes LFC below the display refresh range.","video_inputs":"Exact connectivity section establishes two HDMI 2.0 and one DP 1.4 inputs with HDCP 1.4/2.2 on both. Manual p. 25 colour-table header says HDMI 2.1, conflicting with this exact leaflet and PC Gamer reviewed hardware. Physical HDMI 2.0 is retained and the inconsistent header is not used as evidence of a 2.1 input. Raw enabled link bandwidth and DSC support remain unstated.","dimensions_with_stand_mm":"Exact fixed-height, tilt-only C 27 G 4 ZXE base. Maker overall W x H x D is 611.5 x 457.0 x 177.0 mm. Lowest and highest height coincide because this supplied stand has no vertical adjustment. Tilt angle at the published overall measurement is unstated.","dimensions_without_stand_mm":"Exact leaflet body dimensions 611.52 x 367.64 x 78.68 mm. The 0.02 mm width difference from the rounded with-base 611.5 mm value is published precision, not a body or model difference.","weight_with_stand_kg":"Maker net weight excluding package 4.97 kg, separately distinguishes body without stand 4.05 kg. Cable inclusion is unstated.","package_weight_kg":"Maker gross package weight 8.26 kg.","tco_certified":"Exact sustainability table explicitly No.","tuv_certifications":"Verbatim maker TUV-Bauart-Mark.

These are image dimensions, not inferred from rounded pitch.","color_depth_bits":"Exact p. 25 footnote expressly supports 1.07 billion colours with 10-bit signals under listed conditions. DP 1080p 280 Hz accepts 10-bit 4:2:2/4:2:0 and accepts 8-bit 4:4:4/RGB. DP 1080p 240 Hz also accepts 10-bit 4:4:4/RGB. Supported input bits do not establish native panel bits or FRC. Exact current leaflet lists 16.7 million display colours, so panel implementation stays unavailable.","colors_displayable":"Manual p. 25 expressly states maximum supported 1.07 billion under its footnoted signal conditions. The current leaflet 16.7 million entry is retained as a source discrepancy. This value is not a claim of native 10-bit panel implementation.","hdr_formats":"Exact p. 12 explicitly accepts HDR 10 input signals. HDR Mode in p. 18 simulates an HDR effect on SDR content and is not another incoming HDR format.","refresh_rate_modes":"Exact p. 25 Max resolution gives HDMI 1080p 240 Hz and DP 1080p 280 Hz, independently of the preset timing list. Its condition table explicitly allows DP 280 Hz 8-bit RGB/4:4:4 and 10-bit 4:2:2/4:2:0, and HDMI 240 Hz 8-bit RGB/4:4:4. Only 4:2:2 is represented in the 10-bit row. Highest lower-resolution rates are unproved. HDMI physical version 2.0 comes from the exact leaflet and reviewed hardware, rather than the inconsistent 2.1 column header. Native-versus-overclock status, DSC, and input-specific VRR limits remain unavailable.","overdrive_levels":"Exact p. 16 lists all five settings. Extreme requires Adaptive-Sync off and reduces brightness. It is distinct from a measured transition-time result.","motion_blur_reduction":"Exact pp. 15-16 provide MBR and MBR Sync backlight blur reduction.","strobing_with_vrr":"Exact p. 16 permits MBR Sync with Adaptive-Sync on. Its general note says at least 75 Hz, but the more restrictive final note disables MBR and MBR Sync at 120 Hz and below. The stored capability therefore has a greater-than 120 Hz, HDR-off qualification. HDR and simulated HDR modes impose further menu restrictions.","low_blue_light":"Exact p. 18 LowBlue Mode lowers blue light by controlling colour temperature, establishing a software filter.","tilt_range_deg":"Visually checked p. 8 diagram explicitly shows -5° to +23°. Leaflet nominal -3°±2° to +21°±2° is consistent with those outer limits. This is the supplied fixed-height stand, not the adjustable C 27 G 4 ZX.","osd_controls":"Exact p. 13 physical buttons include source, game mode, dial point, menu and power. Desktop G-Menu availability is stored separately.","power_consumption_typical_w":"Exact p. 25 explicitly typical 30 W at default brightness and contrast. It is separate from regulated SDR 21 W and HDR 31 W.","power_consumption_max_w":"Exact p. 25 upper bound ≤ 44 W with brightness 100 and contrast 100. Not an adapter rating or universal typical draw.","power_consumption_standby_w":"Exact p. 25 upper bound ≤ 0.5 W. Supplier fiche publishes 0.5 W.","in_the_box":"Exact p. 6 inventory. Manual cautions that signal-cable bundles vary by country.
