Dahua LM27-E230C is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 29,000, a 27-inch Full HD curved gaming monitor with a 165Hz refresh rate and Adaptive Sync. Each unit is brand new and sealed, in Black, with a 1500R curve that bends the screen gently toward your eyes. A VA panel delivers 4000:1 contrast, 250 nits of brightness and a 5ms grey-to-grey response time. Come see the Dahua LM27-E230C running a game at our first-floor shop in Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for PC gamers and PlayStation 5 or Xbox players, the Dahua LM27-E230C handles fast football matches and twitchy shooters alike. Playing EA FC on a living-room TV often means sharing the screen with the family and fighting input lag. This monitor gives you a personal 27-inch display at desk distance, where the curve fills your side vision and every pass stays clear. PC players running Valorant, Call of Duty or Apex Legends get up to 165 frames shown every second over DisplayPort. Adaptive Sync matches the screen to your graphics card, removing the torn images that ruin a clutch moment. Streamers who share gameplay on TikTok also get a clean, steady picture to capture.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops push flat office screens on gamers, Mascom International stocks a monitor built around motion and contrast. The curved VA panel shows deeper blacks than typical flat IPS screens, which helps in dark maps and night matches. At Mascom International, we're seeing gamers from Kilimani, South B and Rongai pair the Dahua LM27-E230C with a PS5 for weekend tournaments with friends. Walk into our Kimathi Street store to try the Dahua LM27-E230C with a controller, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it reaches your door.
Common Questions About the Dahua LM27-E230C
What is the Dahua LM27-E230C price in Kenya?
The Dahua LM27-E230C sells for KSh 29,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International on Kimathi Street, Nairobi. That figure covers the curved screen, its stand, the 12V power adapter and a 12-month warranty handled at our CBD service desk. You pay on arrival anywhere in Kenya, by cash or M-Pesa, after checking the panel. It costs KSh 12,500 more than the flat Dahua LM27-B211B and KSh 6,500 less than the 4K Dahua LM27-U401A.
Can I connect a PS5 or Xbox Series X to the Dahua LM27-E230C?
Yes, a PS5 or Xbox Series X plugs into either of the two HDMI 1.4 ports on the Dahua LM27-E230C. Consoles display at Full HD on this screen, which suits its 1920 x 1080 panel. The full 165Hz rate is reached from a gaming PC over DisplayPort, so console play runs at a lower refresh rate. Two HDMI ports mean a console and a decoder or laptop can stay connected, switched from the on-screen menu. Sitting closer than you would to a TV also makes small details easier to spot.
Is 165Hz worth it for EA FC and shooter games?
For shooters, 165Hz on the Dahua LM27-E230C makes enemy movement easier to track than on a 60Hz screen. Each frame stays on screen for about 6 milliseconds instead of 16, so aiming feels more direct. EA FC players notice smoother passing and camera pans when a PC pushes high frame rates. To benefit, your graphics card must produce well over 60 frames a second at 1080p, which most mid-range gaming PCs manage in esports titles. Lower your in-game settings slightly if frame rates fall short.
Should I choose the Dahua LM27-E230C or the flat Dahua LM27-B211B?
Choose the Dahua LM27-E230C for gaming and the flat Dahua LM27-B211B for office work and multi-screen desks. The LM27-E230C is curved, runs to 165Hz and offers 4000:1 contrast on a VA panel. The LM27-B211B is flat, runs to 120Hz and uses an IPS panel with wider viewing angles, for KSh 16,500. If you game more than a few hours a week, the KSh 12,500 extra buys a noticeably smoother experience. For spreadsheets and design reviews, the flat screen keeps straight lines looking straight.
What does Adaptive Sync do on the Dahua LM27-E230C?
Adaptive Sync lets the Dahua LM27-E230C change its refresh rate to match the frames your graphics card sends. Without it, the screen and the card fall out of step, which shows up as a horizontal tear across fast-moving scenes. With it, the image stays whole even when frame rates dip in busy moments. Turn the feature on in your graphics driver and the monitor's menu, and connect over DisplayPort for the best results. Our staff can switch it on for you during setup at the Kimathi Street store.
How does the Dahua LM27-E230C cope with Kenyan heat and KPLC power cuts?
The Dahua LM27-E230C uses about 31 watts in typical use through an external 12V adapter, so a basic UPS keeps it running during KPLC cuts. Keeping the adapter outside the screen body reduces heat inside the panel during hot Mombasa or Kisumu afternoons. Leave space behind the monitor for air to move, and wipe dust from the vents weekly. A surge protector or UPS also protects the adapter from the voltage swings that follow power returning.
Does the Dahua LM27-E230C have speakers?
The Dahua LM27-E230C has no built-in speakers, but it carries a 3.5mm audio output jack. Game sound passes from your PC or console through the HDMI or DisplayPort cable, then out of that jack. Plug in a gaming headset to hear footsteps and team chat clearly. Plug in desk speakers when friends are watching a match. Mascom International stocks headsets and speakers that suit this monitor if you want to complete the setup in one trip.
Who should buy the Dahua LM27-E230C, and who should skip it?
Buy the Dahua LM27-E230C if you play competitive shooters, EA FC or racing games and want a curved, fast screen for KSh 29,000. It suits university gamers at JKUAT or USIU and young professionals building a home gaming desk. Skip it if you mainly edit photos, run accounts or share the screen across a meeting table, where a flat IPS panel serves better. Creative professionals who need sharp 4K detail should look at the Dahua LM27-U401A.
Technical Specifications
Display Panel
- 27-inch VA panel at 1920 x 1080 — Full HD on a gaming-sized screen, easy for mid-range graphics cards to drive.

- 99% sRGB coverage — sRGB is the standard colour space for games and the web, so colours look as intended.
- 90% DCI-P3 and 16.7 million colours — DCI-P3 is the cinema colour range, giving rich kits, skies and explosions.
Audio
- No built-in speakers — the screen relies on a headset, desk speakers or a soundbar for sound.

- Audio carried over HDMI and DisplayPort — console and PC sound reach the jack without a separate cable.
- Headset play suits shared homes — late-night matches stay quiet for the rest of the household.
- Rear jack placement — keeps the headset cable tidy and away from your mouse hand.
Gaming Platform Compatibility
- Works with gaming PCs and laptops — DisplayPort unlocks the full 165Hz with a capable graphics card.
- PS5 and Xbox Series X or S connect over HDMI — consoles display at the panel's native Full HD.

- Input switching from the on-screen menu — swap between PC and console without unplugging cables.
- External 12V 3A power adapter — a separate brick that keeps heat away from the panel.
