    BE WARNED: If you are buying this monitor for the HDMI 2.1 compatibility, it DOES NOT have that. The specs say it comes with 2 HDMI 2.1 ports and it does not, they are HDMI 2.0. See pictures.

    I’ve been upgrading my computer and I wanted to see what it could handle and this beast makes games look great with the high hertz and 1440p resolution. If you’re using 60hz monitor for a computer I recommending immediately upgrading as well as if you’re playing on 1080p this makes it look so crisp. The size of the monitor is good too it’s the perfect size to make sure you don’t have to move your head to look at things while playing, but not too small you can’t see anything. One complaint I have is the settings on the monitor are annoying to set up but after 30mins you should never have to touch them again. The HDR also isn’t the best but I am not the biggest fan of HDR. Overall price to quality is really good, I would definitely buy it as a budget quality gaming monitor.

    I purchased 3 of these monitors from Best Buy and were advertised as having IPS panel and 1.4 display port. I was informed by Acer that this wasn't true and that the monitor has a VA panel and 1.2 display port. The tech sad max resolution I could reach with these monitors was 144hz at 256 x 1440. I now have these monitors setup and running and am getting 2560 x 1440 at 240hz on all three monitors (surround for gaming to 7680 x 1440 and 240hz. So, the specs on Acer site are not correct and the ones on Best Buy are right. As for the monitors, I have been pushing them on gaming for 2 days now and they are great. Color is great and they were very east to set up. Plug and play. Print on the screen is really small and changing it to 125% messed with my task bar so I will live with the small print. I am getting between 65 - 70 FPS at all Ultra setting and 60 - 70 on Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Origin. Those are the only games I have tested. My system is Ryzen 9 5900X with a 3080ti video card and 32gb ram and solid state drive. I will rate these monitors again after about 3 months but for now I highly recommend these monitors even at $399.99 (I payed $269.99 on sale) I also apologize to Best Buy for posting anything before I actually tested the monitors. Acer needs to corredt the specs on their site.

    I have had Acer monitors in the past but I have never bought one of such high specifications (Resolution, Hertz, response time etc.) For this being my first one it was priced extremely well and it performs beautifully! As well as the highers Hertz on the monitor runs incredibly well with my computer! I would 100% recommend this monitor to anyone wanting to have that cleaner/sharper edge in gaming or just everyday computer work! 11/10

    The specs of this monitor are very impressive. Its got two hdmi 2.1’s and a displayport that can do 240hz. The 1440p resolution is great and works out fine for the size of the screen. The only problem i have is the hdr is a bit confusing as its some kind of auto setting. Also, xbox series only supports hdr at 4k, which the upscale on this monitor is locked at 60hz. You can do 4K hdr, but its locked to 60hz.

    I bought two of these for my PC. Out of the box it has really bad backlight bleed which improves over time. It was difficult to find any calibration guides online so I had to do it myself. After I had everything setup it looked fantastic and the anti motion blur cured my cyber sickness (it’s a real thing, look it up). I was quite pleased with then until my main display started flashing lines at the bottom of the screen and then my second display had the DisplayPort go bad a couple weeks later. Ending up swapping out both for the HP Omen of similar spec.
