27" QHD VA Gaming Monitor

The Acer Nitro KG271U Pbiip is a 27-inch WQHD display built for fast-paced gaming. Its VA panel delivers a 2560 x 1440 resolution with a 165Hz refresh rate and a 1ms VRB response time. AMD FreeSync Premium support keeps motion smooth during variable frame rates. The flat screen suits players who want high detail without a curved wrap.

Ports and VisionCare Features

Connectivity includes one DisplayPort 1.2 and two HDMI 2.0 inputs for PC and console sources. Acer VisionCare technologies reduce blue light and flicker to lessen eye strain during long sessions. The stand provides tilt adjustment for basic ergonomic positioning. VESA 100 x 100mm mounting allows wall or arm installation if desk space is limited.

Competitive Gamers and Multi-Taskers

This monitor fits competitive gamers who value high refresh rates and low response times at 1440p resolution. HDR10 support adds a baseline high-dynamic-range option for compatible content. Buyers needing height, swivel or pivot adjustments should look at models with fully ergonomic stands. Users requiring built-in speakers or a USB hub will need a different display.

Questions about this item

Does the monitor include a DisplayPort cable for the 165 Hz refresh rate?

The box contains one DisplayPort 1.2 cable and two HDMI 2.0 cables so you can reach the full 165 Hz at 2560 x 1440 without buying anything extra.

Will the stand let me swivel or raise the screen for a dual-mount arm?

The included stand only tilts; for height, swivel or pivot you need a VESA 100 x 100 mm arm or mount, which the monitor supports.

Can my laptop drive 1440p at 165 Hz over its HDMI port?

Your laptop needs an HDMI 2.0 output (or DisplayPort 1.2) to deliver 2560 x 1440 at 165 Hz; older HDMI 1.4 ports are limited to 144 Hz at this resolution.
