23.8-inch Full HD gaming monitor

The Acer Nitro KG241Y Sbiip is a 23.8-inch Full HD gaming monitor built around an IPS panel with a 165 Hz refresh rate and 1 ms VRB response time. It targets competitive players who want smooth motion and wide viewing angles in a compact ZeroFrame design. The panel covers 99 % sRGB and supports HDR10 for richer colour in compatible titles.

DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 bandwidth limits

The single DisplayPort 1.2 connection and two HDMI 2.0 ports each carry a 1920 x 1080 signal at up to 165 Hz. Adaptive-Sync operates within the same bandwidth envelope, so variable refresh rate works at the panel’s native resolution without chroma subsampling. No higher-resolution or higher-refresh-rate modes are available over these interfaces.

165 Hz refresh rate decides suitability

The 165 Hz maximum refresh rate is the single specification that determines whether this monitor matches the buyer’s GPU output and game requirements. Systems that cannot sustain frame rates near this level will not benefit fully, while esports titles that run well above it are capped by the panel.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 23.8 inch 1920 x 1080 model or a different variant?

This model is the 23.8 inch Full HD 1920 x 1080 variant with a 165Hz refresh rate and IPS panel; no other sizes or resolutions are offered for this product.

What does the 165Hz refresh rate actually deliver in games?

The panel refreshes up to 165 times per second, so fast motion stays clearer and input feels more responsive when your graphics card can push high frame rates.

What does the DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 limit in practice?

DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 2.0 both support the full 1920 x 1080 resolution at the maximum 165Hz refresh rate, so either port can drive the monitor at its peak speed.
