1440p resolution (2560×1440) is becoming the new PC gaming standard, surpassing 1080p for most gamers. MicroCenter has a rare deal on a 27-inch Acer Predator gaming monitor for $199.99, with the option to ship it to you.
The Acer Predator XB273U features a 27-inch IPS panel, offering better color accuracy than standard VA panels. It boasts a speedy 165Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time, along with support for Nvidia G-Sync or AMD FreeSync for tear-free visuals and HDR certification.
In terms of ports, it has standard DisplayPort and HDMI inputs, as well as two USB-A ports on the left side. It also comes with a deluxe stand included in the box. While MicroCenter claims the monitor is normally $499.99, Amazon lists it for $249.99. Still, getting a 1440p monitor with high framerates for $199.99 is a great deal. Act fast, as MicroCenter deals tend to sell out quickly.
