Acer has unveiled a group of new gaming monitors, including a pair of 26.5-
inch QD-OLED screens under its Predator label. The Predator X27U F5 has peak
refresh rate of 500Hz and a resolution of 2560x1440, while the Predator X27 X
has a 4K screen and a 240Hz refresh rate. Both monitors offer AMD FreeSync
Premium Pro technology to prevent screen tearing and support true 10Bit
color. They are slated to be available in the third quarter for the EMEA
region and China. The X27U F5 will start at Γé¼899 and the X27 X starts at
Γé¼1,099.

The high refresh rate on the Predator X27U F5 is particularly notable.
Samsung just opened limited pre-orders of its own 500Hz monitor over the
weekend, which the company claimed was the first product to pair that refresh
rate with OLED visuals in a gaming monitor.

Other Acer monitors in the lineup are part of its line of Nitro Google Smart
TV monitors. The Acer Nitro GA321QK P is a 31.5-inch 4K screen with a 165Hz
refresh rate, while the Acer Nitro GA341CUR W0 has a 34-inchultra-wide QHD
curved display that refreshes at 240Hz. There's also a portable option in the
lightweight Acer Nitro PG271K, which has an adjustable kickstand. This 27-
inch monitor can be a 4K display with a 72Hz refresh rate or a full HD one
with a 144Hz refresh rate thanks to Dynamic Frequency and Resolution
technology. No prices or timeline has been shared yet for the first two Nitro
monitors, but the PG271K is projected to cost Γé¼499 when it arrives in the
EMEA region.
