The Nitro XV5 gaming monitor series, which will be offered later this month, has been announced by Acer. The series will launch with two 27-inch models that use identical 27-inch IPS screens, according to the manufacturer.

The two will be distinguished by their native resolutions, with one running at 1440p and the other at 4K, according to Acer. Although they both support overclocking to 200 Hz, the pair will also provide 144 Hz and 160 Hz refresh rates, respectively.


Acer has not confirmed whether it has measured these response times using GTG or MPRT, but allegedly overclocking the monitors also cuts their response times to 0.5 ms. However, Acer brags that the Nitro XV5 series offers HDMI 2.1 connectivity for compatibility with high-end graphics cards and current-generation gaming consoles, as well as AMD FreeSync Premium to reduce image tearing. Acer appears to have included HDMI 2.1 connections with full bandwidth, supporting 4K and 120 Hz gaming.
Additionally, the Nitro XV5 series will come with a USB hub that supports USB Type-C charging at 65 W. Acer notes that the USB hub has VESA 75 x 75 mm wall mount connectors, sits above an adjustable stand, and works with a KVM switch for peripherals. Later this month, the Eurozone will be able to purchase the Nitro XV5 series. The monitor series will reportedly start at €399, however, this presumably only applies to the QHD variant, according to Acer’s confirmations so far.
