Acer KG271 bmiix 27 Full HD (1920 x 1080) TN Monitor with AMD FREESYNC Technology (2 x HDMI & VGA Port),Black

The monitor itself is very good. Looks good, has a solid base and tilts upwards and downwards. The responsiveness is truly impressive, but the image is not the greatest. Dont get me wrong, its still full HD, but the brightness is not very good. Even then, still think its a quality monitor if you are playing competitive games and even if you arent. Definitely would recommend it to a friend.

The only downside is the unadjustable base, was a great monitor until i tipped it over and smashed the screen :(

Black levels are a little low but not too much to hinder your experience. You will never see gaming the same after using this. Life changing the 27inc is a bit big for me but its still so insane how this changes gaming. Well worth it.

Works great, has an aimpoint option which is ok for cod. If you quickscoop Im sure it will help. I hear it great for 3rd person shooters like pubg Screen setting are basic otherwise. Wish for the price it had a remote. Im unable to test if its really a 1ms lag. Ive had some improvement in my gaming stats but not sure if its due to this.

Son loves his gaming monitor totally can see the difference between his old monitor and this one I purchased for him. Quality of images is a lot crisp.

Great for 1080p 144hz gaming, but the picture quality out of the box requires some tweaking. I was not expecting too much going in from a TN panel, but its worst than expected. This could be due to the fact that I downgraded from a 4k@60 40 HDTV. Dont get me wrong its still an excellent monitor and g-sync works great. Additionally I was able to greatly improve the picture quality using Nvidia Freestyle. Gaming experience on this is night and day over my 4k monitor, high refresh gaming is truly an amazing experience. Refresh Rate Overclocking - It does 165hz with a simple overclock in the Nvidia Control Panel, I have it overclocked to 155hz for my everyday overclock. System(Custom Loop)- 3800X 4.5ghz 1080ti 2101/6100 16gb CL 3600mhz RAM X370 Motherboard

The only con I would have to say is the customization of picture. Out of the box the picture quality is pretty meh so you’ll have to mess with it for a bit. I’m also not very keen on only having two settings for sharpness.

Having played on a TV for the longest time I felt it was necessary to buy a monitor as I do enjoy playing console. I bought this as a black friday deal for around $90. It is a 60hz monitor with 1ms response time. Right away I noticed an improvement in my gameplay as the response from my controller to the monitor was significantly faster than if I were playing on a TV. The reason I say this is a monitor for causal gamers is because professionals would not use a monitor like this. They use 144hz monitors and have technologies I can’t even describe. But if you enjoy playing games like COD, BF1 or any shooter on console, I’d highly recommend this monitor.

Great product. The viewing angles are pretty good, not great, but as expected for the price point. The features are nice for gaming. It includes options for cross-hairs for games that do not have them built in. It also has good ports. The two HDMI ports are very useful if you have a desk setup that utilizes multiple screens or if you want to hook up another console or PC. The speakers are not amazing or very loud, but good enough for typical Youtube and movie watching. If you play games with positional audio you will want headphones or decent speakers. Over all it is a very good panel for a very competitive price. Most gaming screens are in the $200- thousands of dollars range, so this is a good option for entry level people who just want a decent screen or for those looking for a 1080p work space screen.

Horrible calibration by the factory make this a monitor for the enthusiast. You will have to spend quite a bit of time tuning this monitor. The good news is once its tuned its amazing. A few tips. Turn OFF Overdrive Turn On RGBcolor Black Boost 0 Super sharpness : Off Gamma 2.2 HDMI Black Level Normal. Then be sure to go into your graphics card setting and turn your monitor resoultion to 1980x1060 and make the refresh rate 75 Mhz. You will then have good color representation and a blindly bright display. The hardest part for me was turning the brightness down to a very low setting as to not feel lile my eyeball were on fire. It takes some getting used to going from a 20’ to 25’, but over all the added desk top space make it wonderful. You could use the blue light filter, but I felt the colors suffer when in this mode. Of course your setting will need to be tweaked to your preferences but hopefully this helps .
