Acer Nitro XV2 series XV272U KV KVbmiiprzx Gaming Monitor

Nitro XV272U KV Widescreen LCD Monitor
The Acer Nitro XV272U KVbmiiprzx is an excellent 1440p gaming monitor. It uses an IPS panel with wide viewing angles, and it has excellent ergonomics, meaning you can place the screen in a comfortable viewing position. It has a 170Hz refresh rate and exceptional response times to deliver a smooth gaming experience. Its input lag is incredibly low, and it has both native FreeSync support and G-SYNC compatibility to reduce screen tearing. It can display a wide color gamut for HDR with excellent tone mapping, and it gets decently bright enough to make some highlights pop. It also has great peak brightness with the latest firmware update and decent reflection handling. Sadly, it's also not the best for dark rooms because it has a low contrast ratio that makes blacks look gray.

Our Verdict
The Acer Nitro XV272U is excellent for gaming. It has incredibly low input lag, a high refresh rate, and exceptional response times, so gaming feels smooth and responsive. It supports FreeSync and is compatible with G-SYNC. Its ergonomics are excellent, which makes it easy to place the screen at a comfortable viewing position. It's not very well-suited for a dark room because it has a low contrast ratio that makes blacks look gray in the dark.
