Acer Vs Dell Gaming Monitor

This was used to replace my wife's 27 Dell gaming monitor which performed fantastic, but died with vertical lines starting and growing to be worse and worse. She is not a gamer, but the color is great with this IPS monitor, and it does not have glare issues like most monitors do these days. I swear that whoever builds this unit also builds the Dell she had before - they both seem very similar.

This monitor really is something else. I'm upgrading from a pretty budget Dell gaming monitor, same 27 size, but every other spec is a huge upgrade. The colors are vibrant, it responds insanely fast, and the framerate and clarity of motion is completely unmatched on the market currently. Coming from a 1080p monitor, the pixel density has far surpassed my previous experience. Additionally, the monitor has a lot of tools to help you get a long life out of it as well that prevent burn-in. The monitor is fantastic for the form factor. I won’t say that it’s perfect. I’m still getting used to the glossy finish of the screen. It sometimes takes a few seconds to alt-tab out of a game. Still, the monitor is the best thing I’ve laid my eyes on and it’s been an absolute pleasure to use. I highly recommend it!

I had little expectation that my two VERY different screens -an old DEll sRGB PC screen and a newer ACER 100 percent RGB- could be callibrated to be anywhere close to one another, but ultimately I knew that I needed good screen calibration for output accuracy anyway, even if it was still only the Acer that I relied on. I use the Dell for edits and the Acer for reference. The Dell has a heavy red caste to it, and multiple attempts at manually calibrating it never looked right. To my amazement, the Datacolor Spyder X corrected both screens to the point where edits on the Dell look impressively close to reference on the Acer, and output to print is now closer to what I see on the screen in proof. It saves a hecka-lot of tweaking time and wasted paper and ink. The spyder X did this quickly and easily. I had wanted one for some time, but the price held me off. I jumped when B&H put it on sale, and I am so glad I did! I'm also happy to have the shot color reference card and cube. This kit is genuenly a game-changer.

Holds my 35\ Ultrawide monitor (Acer Z35P) with ease."

Hard to beat a good ViewSonic monitor. This might be the best value at 1080P 165hz! If it's anything like my past VS monitors, it'll last you 10+ years!

This works great as a second monitor. Perfect for another browsing monitor, Photoshop palettes, VS Code, email or whatever.

I purchased this for my Acer Predator Helios 500 gaming laptop and it works perfectly! It arrived early and was easy to install. *Tip* - you can find easy installation instructions available online at crucial.com. I highly recommend this product and, moreover, B&H as a seller. Great product with quick and easy service!

I believe Acer is one of the best values in laptops. But with value comes some compromises. For this purchase, I was just looking at raw specifications and wanted top-of-the-line or near-top for a 16 gaming laptop. (I was fine with a 13th gen Intel CPU b/c there really isn't any meaningful improvement to the 14th gen, so buying a laptop that has been out for a year is an even better way to save money). This laptop has fantastic performance - I use it to game and for video/audio editing via Premiere. I can run any game I care to play at max settings. The screen is surprisingly vibrant, even though it's not the mini-led. Be aware that battery life for this laptop (and most upper-end gaming laptops in general) is pretty atrocious (2, MAYBE 3 hours under light usage). If you plan to do anything processor/GPU intensive on battery alone..., it's not going to happen. This laptop is happiest being plugged in and acting as a desktop replacement more than a true laptop that you're going to carry around all the time. I love it because I can take it with me when I travel and have an awesome machine with a small(er) footprint. This laptop isn't the most quiet (the fans can get pretty raucous), it isn't the best-looking, and doesn't have the best thermals, but it is, in my opinion, a great buy at a very reasonable price if you understand what these types of machines are like.

Of an old monitor. Works perfectly with an old dell monitor and a Mac mini.
