Acer unveils new Predator and Nitro monitors

During the next@acer Global Press Conference recently held in Berlin, Germany, Acer unveiled the new additions to the Predator and Nitro gaming portfolio, the Predator XB273K Monitor and the Acer Nitro XV273K Monitor.
“Our battle-tested Predator gaming monitors have proven their quality and reliability as a top choice of pro-gamers and tournaments around the world,” said Victor Chien, president, Digital Display Business, Acer Inc. “We’re now waterfalling our experience and technology to our Nitro series to make premium gaming experiences more accessible to users.”
The new Predator XB273K gaming monitor is for gamers looking for an incredible gaming experience. It brings games to life in high definition (3840×2160) immersion and features a rapid 144Hz refresh rate that provides smooth images and tear-free gameplay when fast-moving objects buzz across the screen. NVIDIA® G-SYNC eliminates screen tearing by adapting to the framerate of the outputting device, resulting in smooth gameplay. The IPS3 display panel features a wide color gamut of 90% of the DCI-P3 color space for vibrant colors that pop out and deeper blacks. For enhanced color vibrancy, VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification ensures better contrast and color accuracy so customers experience AAA games as they were meant to be.

The Predator XB273K is ideal for users who want to be engrossed in gaming worlds. The monitor’s shielding hood lessens distractions during periods of concentration, and it features the Acer ErgoStand design that gives users the freedom to swivel, pivot, and adjust height for maximum adaptability and viewing comfort. The XB273K is also designed to be easy on the eyes, featuring Acer VisionCare—a suite of technologies that help protect eyes during longer gaming sessions.
The new Acer Nitro XV273K monitor delivers high refresh rates and ultra-high resolution, offering outstanding casual gameplay at affordable prices. These new IPS UHD monitors with AMD Radeon FreeSync1 satisfy gamers’ need for high resolution gaming through a fast response time of up to 1ms and Visual Response Boost (VRB) for smooth, tear-free gameplay that doesn’t break the bank.

The Acer Nitro XV273K 27-inch monitor delivers true-to-life color, and resolutions of 4K Ultra High Definition (UHD) for a totally immersive gaming experience with ultra-wide viewing angles.
Boasting AMD Radeon FreeSync, the new Nitro monitors’ frames sync with the PC’s graphics cards to support dynamic refresh rates, eliminating screen tearing and minimizing lag. Integrated Visual-Response Boost (VRB) decreases blur in fast-moving images to achieve the effect of a 1ms MPRT (Moving Picture Response Time). With up to 144Hz refresh rates, the new Nitro XV273K monitor also includes High Dynamic Range (HDR) VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification for better contrast and color accuracy and more vibrant colors. Integrated 6-axis color adjustment lets gamers fine-tune color, hue and saturation to best suit the game at hand, while the built-in black boost enables gamers to select from 11 black level options to optimize visual advantage and clearly spot enemies, duck for cover, or navigate curves on a race track.

The Acer Nitro gaming monitors come in three configurations; two In Panel Switching (IPS) models for wider viewing angles and color accuracy, one in UHD and one in WQHD, and also a Twisted Nematic (TN) WQHD monitor for gamers wanting high brightness and power efficiency:
