Our Verdict
LG 27GN800-B
Dell G2724D
The Dell G2724D and the LG 27GN800-B are both entry-level 1440p gaming monitors. The Dell is better for the most part because it gets brighter and has better motion handling. The Dell also supports VRR with a PS5, which the LG doesn't. The Dell even has much better accuracy, which is useful for content creation.
