Acer Predator XB271HK

It may be pricey, but the Acer Predator XB271HK is a 27-inch Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) gaming monitor that comes up big in terms of performance, features, and style.

Superb gaming, color, and gray-scale performance. Highly detailed UHD image quality. Attractive bezel-free design. Supports G-Sync anti-tearing and smoothing technology.

Expensive. Underpowered speakers. Two video inputs.

Conclusion You'll pay big bucks for the Acer Predator XB271HK, but its price is still in line with other IPS-based, 27-inch UHD monitors, such as the ViewSonic VP2780-4K and the NEC MultiSync EA275UHD, neither of which support Nvidia's G-Sync...

Acer Predator XB1 XB321HK 4k UHD 32 inch IPS G-Sync Gaming Monitor Review (27 inch – XB271HK)

It may not be exactly cheap as far as gaming monitors go, but the Acer XB321HK is one massive piece of 4K PC display technology which has been built with gaming in mind almost across the board in all of its core specs. Featuring a mostly simple and...

Superb color rendering ; Great design ; Includes G-Sync ; Very bright panel ; Connectivity essentials all present ; Great display space at 32 inches

No swivel adjustment ; Could use more HDI or DP 1.2 ports ; Contrast is a bit weak ; expensive enough to justify simply buying a 4K TV

Despite its minor flaws, the Acer Predator XB321HK is one excellent and well-designed 4K gamer's monitor that almost anyone will be pleased with. We particularly like its massive display space and the inclusion of G-Sync. However, this 4K PC monitor is...
