I don't game as much as I used too. But when I do, color looks good and
perform fine at 1440p. If you are a heavy gamer. I'm sure you will see the flaws more then me.
No complaints so far.

Does the LG VA panel handle text scrolling well? I may poke around on YouTube and see if anyone has tested that

We decreased the text clarity score from 7.5 to 7.0. The BGR subpixel layout isn't an issue in apps that support ClearType, but there are many apps that don't, and text clarity is an issue in those apps.
I just got this LG and it supports 120Hz @ 1920x1080, so it works great for PS5 games that support 120Hz (like Warzone and Vanguard).
And here's the tl;dr from rtings on this LG:
The LG 27GL83A-B is a very good monitor with a 27 inch, 1440p IPS screen. It delivers a great gaming experience with extremely low input lag, an outstanding response time, and a few great gaming features. It supports AMD's FreeSync variable refresh rate technology (VRR), but it's also certified by NVIDIA to support VRR from recent NVIDIA graphics cards. It has wide viewing angles, good reflection handling, and very good peak brightness, so glare shouldn't be an issue. As a more budget-oriented model, it has a pretty basic stand, with limited ergonomics and no RGB lighting. Although it supports HDR, this doesn't really add much, as it can't get bright enough to deliver a true HDR experience and has a low contrast ratio.
And how the LG compares to the Gigabyte M27Q:
The Gigabyte M27Q and the LG 27GL83A-B are quite similar as they're both 27 inch IPS gaming monitors with a 1440p resolution. In terms of gaming performance, the main difference is that the Gigabyte has a higher refresh rate of 170Hz compared to the LG's 144Hz, but it has a slightly slower response time. The Gigabyte is better for content creation because it has a much better SDR and HDR color gamut, as well as better accuracy out of the box. It also has more features, like a Picture-in-Picture and Picture-by-Picture mode, and a USB-C port that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. However, the LG has wider viewing angles if you need to share your screen often, and it can rotate to portrait mode, which the Gigabyte can't.

This was one of the best gaming monitors you could buy two years ago.
