Monitors come in different shapes, sizes, and resolutions. They also come with different specs, with some of them calibrated to suit the needs of creative professionals, while others have been designed for gamers in mind. If you are after a new gaming monitor, then you might be interested to learn that Acer has a new monitor for you.
At a recent Acer event, the company has taken the wraps off its latest monitor in the form of the Predator X27. This is a monitor that comes pretty much all kinds of gaming/high-end specs into one, sugar as G-Sync HDR, a 4K resolution, and a 144Hz refresh rate. It also features quantum dot technology and has 384 individually controlled LED zones to help with the contrast of HDR.
It also supports NVIDIA’s ULMB technology which basically helps to make fast-on screen movement come off as smooth and crisp as possible. We’re also talking about features such as Tobii eye-tracking. It also sports a rather interesting design where there’s a hood over the top and sides of the monitor, presumably to help make it more immersive and also cut glare from external light sources.
In terms of availability, Acer has yet to mention when. There is also no word on pricing but given its size and specs and the fact that it is marketed as a gaming monitor (which typically doesn’t come cheap), prepare to set aside a fair amount of change if you do plan on getting it.
