HyperX is increasing into displays with the announcement of two fashions designed for avid gamers who need a minimalist desk setup. Probably the most distinctive factor about these displays is that they every embrace a desk mount and versatile monitor arm, which allow you to customise precisely the way you need to prepare the show in your desk. (To not point out, the shortage of a standard stand means you gained’t lose a lot desk area.) You may orient the monitor horizontally or twist it 90 levels for a taller view.
The 25-inch 1080p Armada 25 and the 27-inch QHD Armada 27 coming in September aren’t far aside in worth, costing $449 and $499, respectively. Each look like a fantastic deal contemplating they embrace monitor arms, which generally promote for round $100 or extra. Other than dimension and determination, there additionally aren’t too many spec variations between the 2. Each have matte-textured IPS panels with slim bezels and are supposed to have the ability to attain 400 nits of peak brightness. They each have 1ms response instances in addition to Nvidia G-Sync compatibility to deal with adaptive sync with Nvidia GPUs. Their ports are equivalent, too, comprised of 1 DisplayPort 1.four and two HDMI 2.zero ports. (HyperX contains HDMI and DisplayPort cables, which Sony couldn’t convey itself to do for its $899 InZone M9.)
As for a way they differ, the Armada 25 sports activities a sooner 240Hz refresh charge in comparison with the Armada 27’s 165Hz charge. The Armada 27 options VESA Show HDR 400, which means that HyperX claims it might probably obtain a peak of 400 nits for HDR content material, which isn’t very brilliant (HyperX confirmed that the Armada 25 doesn’t help Show HDR 400). Each displays declare to have first rate colour accuracy for the value, although every facilities in on a unique colour gamut. The Armada 25 claims to help 95 % of the sRGB colour gamut, whereas the Armada 27 claims to have 95 % protection of the DCI P3 gamut.

Every Armada monitor comes with a desk mount and arm, although these parts could be bought individually.

Notably, HyperX is making the monitor mounts accessible for buy individually, they usually have a VESA mounting plate with 4 screws. The Armada Single Gaming Mount (as proven hooked up to the monitor within the photograph above), which comes with every of the brand new displays, prices $109.99 by itself. If you have already got the only mount however need to add extra displays to your setup, you’ll want the Armada Addon Gaming Mount, which prices $79.99. HyperX says as much as 4 25-inch displays could be put in through these add-on elements on a Single Gaming Mount or as much as two 27-inch displays.
It’s cool to see that HyperX’s debut gaming displays aren’t simply also-rans by way of worth. (Sarcastically, they’re rather more fascinating than what I’ve seen come out so removed from HP, its mum or dad firm.) Whereas the panel know-how could also be nothing new, the inclusion of monitor arms and mounts with every mannequin offers the corporate a bonus that almost all different firms making comparable displays can’t match.
