Acer Nitro VG271U Pbmiipx 27 WQHD (2560 x 1440) IPS AMD Radeon FREESYNC Gaming Monitor, 144Hz, VESA Certified Display HDR400, DCI-P3, (2 HDMI 2.0 & 1 Display Port), Black

Just got this monitor as part of an upgrade alongside the RX 5700xt graphics card. My old graphics card doesnt support HDMI 2.0, but I got the full resolution and refresh rate after switching to DisplayPort 1.4. Very nice display and a lot of options built in. The speakers are okay but I typically will just use my headset anyway. Didnt expect anything from the speakers and nobody really should. The picture quality is spot on and works well with AMD display setting software. I wish the monitor display was edge-to-edge but theres about a 3/4cm on the left, right, and top sides of the display. Tried changing some things up and its still like that. Looking at it in the light, I believe thats just how its designed. Overall great value!

Ive been using this monitor for a few months. Gotta say, I have been loving it. Even with the slight motion blur, its great.

Great monitor, for the first time I splurged and bought two of the same.

This Monitor is exactly what i wanted. I’m using it for a second gaming screen and the picture quality and brightness is way better then the other screen i have. i would prefer having two of these. Amazing Monitor, i would suggest this to anyone who is looking for one.

compared to the same priced Pixio PX276 that my wifes pc uses, this monitor is way better in color accuracy, and depth of color due to HDR even if its only HDR400. Brightness is plenty more bright then we use (specially at night time.) cant tell a difference between the Pixio at 144hz 1440p and i dont have a way to measure response time but feels alot better then my old Asus monitor that i had. overall i will be buying a 2nd one to replace the Pixio for the color depth and accuracy!

It does as expected. Great feature for its price.

I looked for reviews on this product before purchasing. It seemed to be a fairly even split, people who got good ones, and people who got bad ones. I gambled, and got a bad one. Out of the box it immediately had flickering issues with the fake HDR setting turned on, as if the screen was struggling to put out that much light consistently. Turned it off, it seemed okay. After about 30 minutes, I began to notice a different flicker coming up. The entire screen flashing gray for just a fraction of a second. Okay, I think to myself. Issues sometimes come up when you get something new. Lets troubleshoot. I try different cables. I had defaulted to Displayport because my graphics card only has one HDMI, and thats used for my old reliable BenQ office monitor thats a secondary display. But through multiple DP and HDMI cables (including the one that came in the box), the problem persists. Next are the settings. I go through them all. Turn them off or on, one at a time. Freesync, ACM, VBR, Ultra Low Latency mode, etc. etc. Problem persists, and gets worse with some. By the time I decided to call it quits, the gray screen flickering had accelerated to happening about once every other second, which made every task unbearable to deal with.

This monitor has stopped functioning recently, and now I am in the market for a new one. I bought this monitor in June 2019, and it is currently January 2023. That means it has lasted almost exactly 3.5 years. I was watching YouTube yesterday, and all of a sudden, a vertical stripe of my monitor became deepfried (appears to have very low color depth). Its in the center of the monitor, goes from top to bottom, and the region effected is approximately 400 pixels wide. I am disappointed because this is an expensive product, and I have older monitors that I still use regularly and still work fine. My second monitor is a BenQ XL2411 which has been working perfectly since I bought it in 2016. I have another Dell monitor that I no longer use because it is so old that it only has VGA and DVI inputs, but it also still functions perfectly. I got that one in 2012. Overall, the experience of using this monitor was great, but its definitely of lower quality than its competitors. It appears to be selling for $299 at the time of writing this, but personally, I probably wouldnt pay more than $150. I am baffled that its selling for that much when there are cheaper and better alternatives. In summary, this monitor was okay while it lasted, but it is on the lower end of the quality spectrum, and I am disappointed that it has failed after only 3.5 years. I cant rate this product more than 3 stars, and if I had to describe it in one word, I would say, mediocre.

Love the high resolution and refresh rate. This is my first gaming monitor, huge step up from 1080p60hz

I feel like some people just like to complain... I dont know. I have ZERO issues with the monitor, using the provided HDMI cable or a DisplayPort cable of my own. No flickering, no 8-bit color, no artifacts, no issues. I run it at 144hz on 1440p and its gold. There is only one issue, and its nit-picking so I didnt drop it a star or anything, but the screen has a black bar around the entire monitor. The bezel is non-existent, but it may as well have had a half inch bezel for the black dead screen that surrounds the whole thing. Again, its nit-picky, but I thought something was wrong with my GPU settings and I was trying to figure out why over scan wasnt solving the issue. Last thing, the speakers on this are bad, and thats by even crappy monitor speaker standards. Theyll get you through, if you just need some temporarily, but youd be better off with some $15 amazon basics laptop speakers than the ones on this monitor. Not a deal breaker, but worth bringing up.
