Exact model: PRO MAX 271UPX12G
Compact 4K with a 120Hz ceiling
The PRO MAX 271UPX12G keeps 4K detail on a 26.5-inch screen without charging for a 240Hz gaming panel. It has speakers and USB-C video, but that port supplies only 15W. A laptop will usually need its charger alongside the display cable.
Exact model: UM.GXXAA.109
240Hz with useful desk connections
The Predator X27 X1bmiippruzx doubles the PRO MAX model’s native refresh to 240Hz on a glossy 26.5-inch 4K panel. Its USB-C video input supplies 65W and the KVM can move keyboard and mouse between two computers. Check whether 65W covers your laptop.
Exact model: PRO MAX 271UPXW12G
98W USB-C on a compact 4K screen
The PRO MAX 271UPXW12G stays at 120Hz, but its 98W USB-C video input and KVM make it a more complete laptop desk than the 15W 271UPX12G. Built-in speakers also keep the setup small. Pick the higher power only if your portable can use it.
Exact model: UM.GXXAA.110
165Hz for a fixed PC desk
The Predator X27 V1bmiipprx reaches 165Hz at native 4K on a glossy 26.5-inch panel. It has speakers, HDMI and DisplayPort, but no USB-C video input or KVM. A work laptop needs its own connection and power arrangement.
Exact model: PA279CDV
4K with 96W laptop power
The ProArt PA279CDV is a 120Hz 4K screen with USB-C video at 96W, KVM and built-in speakers. Its connection package suits a desk shared with a laptop more than a buyer paying for maximum gaming refresh. Confirm the laptop’s charging needs against the 96W output.
