Acer has just unveiled two new gaming monitors that features world first design elements. Both of the monitors feature a gorgeous 27-inch display with a WQHD 2560 X 1440 resolution and a super fast 144Hz refresh rate. These monitors will be ideal for gaming, the XB270HU is the world’s first NVIDIA G-SYNC gaming monitor with IPS technology and the XG270HU is the world’s first gaming minor with an edge-to-edge frames display. These monitors are built for gaming and should perform very well. 
The XB270HU features NVIDIA G-SYNC which ensures each frame rendered by the GPU is exactly portrayed by synchronizing the monitor’s refresh rates to that of the GPU in the GeForce GTX-powered PC. This technology minimizes the display stuttering and any lag that might occur is drastically reduced, if not eliminated. It has a ErgoStand which allows you tilt, move, swivel, and adjust the monitor in many different ways. It even works in a multi monitor setup and will perform quite well in this scenario thanks to the G-SYNC technology.
An edge-to-edge frameless display allows for seamless viewing and a more immersive experience, and this is exactly what the XG270HU monitor delivers. It will be ideal for multi monitor setups as the multiple displays will just blend together and let you get immersed into the game. It features a few ports including a HDMI 2.0, a DVI, and a DisplayPort 1.2. It features both Acer EyeProtect and ComfyView which help to create a flicker less screen and a non-glare panel. All of these technologies put to play together will help to reduce the stain put on the eyes of the end-user.
The Acer XB270HU and XG270HU monitors might just be set to deliver some of the most immersive gaming monitor experiences ever and this is done thanks to world first design elements. Both monitors will available globally and begin shipping in March 2015. Exact pricing and availability will be announced by region closer to March 2015.

LAS VEGAS (Jan 3, 2014) Acer announces two new gaming monitors with some world first designs. The Acer XB270HU is the world’s first NVIDIA® G-SYNCTM 1 gaming monitor equipped with IPS technology, and the Acer XG270HU is the world’s first gaming monitor with an edge- to-edge frameless display. Both of these 27-inch displays come with WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution and a fast 144Hz refresh rate to enhance in-gaming performance.
The XB270HU is the first NVIDIA® G-SYNCTM-enabled gaming monitor to feature IPS technology, which provides consistently clear images from up to 178 degree wide viewing angles. NVIDIA® G-SYNCTM technology ensures every frame rendered by the GPU is perfectly portrayed by synchronizing the monitor’s refresh rates to the GPU in a GeForce® GTX-powered PC. This breakthrough technology eliminates screen tearing and minimizes display stutter and input lag to deliver a smooth, fast and dynamic gaming experience for all the latest PC game titles. Scenes appear instantly, objects are visually sharp, and gameplay is more responsive to provide faster reaction times, giving gamers an advantage. Even in multi-monitor setups, the Acer XB270HU delivers crisp images from wide viewing angles to provide an excellent in-game experience. Furthermore, its multi-functional ErgoStand allows users to tilt, swivel and adjust the height to the most comfortable viewing position.
The XG270HU is the world’s first gaming monitor with an edge-to-edge frameless display which maximizes viewing area and provides a more seamless viewing experience for multi-monitor setups. A quick 1ms response time assures that actions or dramatic transitions will be rendered smoothly without smearing or ghosting effects. Built with post-consumer recycled ABS plastic, this monitor adorns the characteristic Acer gaming identity with a bold orange strip along the bottom horizontal frame and also outlines the base stand. For easy connectivity, the XG270HU includes HDMI 2.0, DVI, and DisplayPort 1.2.
To reduce eye strain and potential long-term damage to eye health by heavy users such as gamers and programmers, the XG270HU is built with Acer EyeProtect technologies. This includes flicker-less technology that eliminates screen flicker through a stable supply of power; ComfyView which reduces reflection from light sources on the non-glare panel, low-dimming technology that adjusts screen brightness when working in non-optimal lighting conditions, and a blue light filter to reduce blue light exposure.
Acer has the most comprehensive lineup of gaming monitors on the market with 24-, 27- and 28-inch sizes and across FHD, WQHD and 4K2K UHD resolution displays.
