Taipei, Taiwan – Acer continues to solidify its foothold in the gaming hardware market with the launch of three cutting-edge monitors under its Predator and Nitro brands. Designed to cater to both elite esports enthusiasts and budget-conscious gamers, the new lineup emphasizes blistering refresh rates, vibrant visuals, and adaptive sync technologies. Let’s dive into what these displays bring to the battlefield.
Predator X28: 4K Dominance for the Discerning Gamer
Leading the charge is the Predator X28, a 28-inch 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) monitor built to satisfy hardcore gamers and content creators alike. Boasting a 144Hz refresh rate and NVIDIA G-Sync Ultimate certification, it promises buttery-smooth gameplay with virtually no tearing. The IPS panel covers 90% of the DCI-P3 color gamut, making it a hybrid powerhouse for gaming and creative work. HDMI 2.1 support ensures compatibility with next-gen consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, while a 1ms response time keeps motion blur at bay.
Predator X32 GS: Speed Meets Precision
For gamers who prioritize speed without sacrificing resolution, the Predator X32 GS offers a 32-inch QHD (2560 x 1440) display with a staggering 240Hz refresh rate. Leveraging Adaptive-Sync technology, this monitor dynamically matches frame rates across NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. Its 576-zone mini-LED backlight enhances contrast for deeper blacks and brighter highlights, supported by VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification. With a rapid 0.7ms response time and a customizable RGB Light Sense rear panel, the X32 GS is as stylish as it is functional.
Nitro XV272U KV: Budget-Friendly Performance
Rounding out the trio is the Nitro XV272U KV, a 27-inch QHD monitor targeting mainstream gamers. It delivers a 170Hz refresh rate and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, ensuring fluid gameplay even at lower price points. The IPS panel covers 95% of the DCI-P3 spectrum, while HDR10 support adds depth to visuals. Acer’s VisionCare 3.0 technology reduces eye strain during marathon sessions, and the ergonomic stand allows tilt, swivel, and height adjustments.
For those seeking a more affordable entry into high-refresh gaming, Acer’s existing KG251Q model remains a compelling option, offering Full HD resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate in a compact 24.5-inch design.
