Acer today announced a full lineup of monitors for high-powered gaming and content creation across the Predator, Acer Nitro, and Acer ProDesigner portfolios. Spanning ultrafast refresh rates, high-resolution panels, and adaptive display technologies, the new monitors are designed to meet the needs of a wide range of gamers and creators.

Predator XB253Q U1: Top-tier Responsiveness for Esports
The Predator XB253Q U1 monitor is a premium gaming display designed for hardcore gamers and enthusiasts seeking the ultimate speed and responsiveness for fast-paced titles and esports competitions. The 24.5-inch size is optimal for esports environments and delivers ultrafast visual response, motion clarity, and consistent performance, enabling gamers to react more quickly and maintain precision during fast-paced gameplay. It features a 1000 Hz refresh rate with FHD resolution, along with Acer's proprietary Visual Response Boost (VRB) Pro technology, which reduces motion blur and ghosting so that fast-moving objects on screen appear sharper and easier to track. The monitor is VESA DisplayHDR400 certified and includes Circular Polarizer technology to reduce glare and eye strain during longer gaming sessions. It also offers AMD FreeSync Premium and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible for tear-free gaming visuals.

Acer has officially launched the Nitro 30 PC in Japan, a 28 L gaming PC powered by the AMD Ryzen 7 8700F and the AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT, as the latest in its line-up of Nitro pre-built gaming desktops. The chassis features a semi-closed front panel with an edgy Nitro logo emblazoned on the front, and it has a tempered glass side panel to show off the internals. For now, it seems as though the Nitro 30 is exclusive to Japan, but a global launch may be planned for a later date, given the presence of the Nitro 85 and Nitro 60 in international markets.

The internals feature the aforementioned AMD Ryzen CPU, 32 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM in dual channel, a 1 TB PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSD, and a built-in wireless card with Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity. The compact desktop chassis comes with an 850 W 80 Plus Gold PSU and two pre-installed 120 mm RGB case fans and another 120 mm RGB fan on the top-flow CPU cooler. The front intake has space for another 120 mm fan, but it does not look like there is additional space for more intake or exhaust fans.

Acer today unveiled a refreshed lineup of high-performance gaming displays from Predator and Acer Nitro, combining the latest in display technology to bring gaming experiences to life. Spanning 3D experiences to blazing-fast refresh rates and stunning definition, the new monitors offer high-performance visuals that appeal to gaming enthusiasts and casual gamers alike, delivering next-level immersion without compromising on speed, clarity, or competitive responsiveness. The lineup also standardizes tear-free technology, with all models supporting up to AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and multiple options that are NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible.

Predator XB273K 3D
The 27-inch Predator XB273K 3D display is designed for gamers who want to push beyond traditional flat gameplay with immersive 3D experiences, while bypassing the need for native 3D content. The display offers 3D eye-tracking technology paired with a 180 Hz refresh rate. It comes equipped with a local AI model onboard that can harness a connected device's graphics processing capabilities to intelligently transform standard 2D content into immersive 3D visuals, bringing games to life with enhanced depth, realism, and precision.

Acer today announced a new lineup of mobile gaming solutions designed to push the boundaries of performance, portability, and immersive play. The new lineup includes the flagship Predator Helios 18 AI gaming laptop; Acer Nitro 16, a value-driven powerhouse and the first Acer gaming laptop to feature up to an AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX3D processor; and the Acer Nitro Blaze Link streaming handheld. Both Windows 11 laptops come equipped with top-performance CPUs, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series Laptop GPUs, and three months of PC Game Pass.

Powered by NVIDIA Blackwell, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series Laptop GPUs bring game-changing capabilities to gamers and creators. Equipped with a massive level of AI horsepower, the RTX 50 Series enables new experiences and next-level graphics fidelity. Multiply performance with NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 and generate images at unprecedented speed.

It was recently leaked that Xbox Game Pass would likely become part of bundle deals with the likes of Netflix and potentially other partners, and, as per a recent announcement by both Discord and Microsoft, one of those partners is Discord. The occasionally controversial gaming-first communications platform will now include Game Pass with its paid Nitro subscription service. The Xbox Game Pass subscription included with Nitro is a slightly cut-back version of Xbox's service—Discord calls it a "starter edition"—and it offers "50+ PC and console games." Game Pass is also only included on the full-fat $9.99 version of Nitro, not Nitro Basic, although that's likely still a deal for some PC gamers, depending on taste.

The Nitro plan included with Game Pass has more severe limitations, though, the most notable of which is the lack of online multiplayer on consoles and a 10-hour monthly limit on cloud game streaming. Game Pass will also be directly integrated into the "Now Playing" statuses on Discord. Nitro subscribers will be able to launch Game Pass games directly from Discord—likely by first launching the Xbox app—if they see a game their friend is playing and want to join in. Discord Nitro users will also now have access to discounts of up to 30% on Logitech G, SteelSeries, and KontrolFreak products as of the new Nitro update, which is rolling out to Nitro users in waves "over the coming weeks."

Acer revealed its Nitro Blaze 8 and 11 Windows gaming handhelds almost exactly a year ago, at CES 2025, but the 8- and 11-inch gaming handhelds have yet to materialize as purchasable products, nor have they shown up at CES 2026. According to recent reporting by Windows Central, Acer has put those gaming handheld ambitions on hold, with a representative from the company telling the publication that while the handhelds are still part of the launch roadmap for the US, "launch plans are TBD." The representative goes on to effectively blame the US tariff situation for the delayed launch, saying that Acer is "focused on our core products."

While the Acer Nitro Blaze family has not yet been cancelled, although the devices were slated to launch in Q2 2025, its continued delays could result in diminished success, especially if Acer doesn't upgrade the internals before launch. After all, while 16 GB of RAM is certainly still enough for many games, especially when running at lower resolutions and frame rates as is common on gaming handhelds, premium devices like the ASUS ROG Ally X, Lenovo Legion Go 2, and the OneXPlayer OneXFly at the very high end, have already stepped up to 32 GB and beyond. The AMD Ryzen 7 8840HS that would have originally powered the Acer Nitro Blaze devices will also soon start to show its age.

Acer today unveiled four new monitors, including three premium models for gamers and a cutting-edge 6K display for creators, as well as an eco-friendly laser projector for gamers and home cinema fans. The three gaming monitors fulfill gamers' needs for speed and precision to achieve spectacular performance in every gaming match.

These models include the Predator XB273U F6 that features AMD FreeSync Premium and delivers up to 1000 Hz motion clarity, giving competitive players the split-second advantage required to stay ahead in the fastest-paced titles; the Predator X34 F3, delivering 360 Hz speed and outstanding visual quality with a brilliant QD-OLED panel; and the Nitro XV270X P, supporting crystal-clear 5K resolution and up to 330 Hz refresh rates for staying on top of a wide range of esports. The Acer ProDesigner PE320QX monitor for professional creators provides stunning 6K clarity and smooth, high-performance visuals across all major display interfaces. In addition, the Acer Vero HL1820 RGB laser projector features 4K UHD resolution visuals in an eco-friendly design for enjoying both films and gameplay.

It's no secret that NVIDIA GPUs have had a habit of burning up 12vHPWR and 12V-2x6 connectors, but increasingly, reports are emerging of the same thing happening to AMD's Radeon GPUs running the same connectors. The latest report of such burned connectors come from a user on r/Radeon on Reddit, where user u/divinethreshold posted an image of their burned Sapphire Nitro+ AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT GPU with a burned 12V-2x6 connector on the GPU cable side. According to the account, the GPU had been running in the same system for upwards of a year without issue before it started crashing mysteriously, prompting the redditor to disassemble the system and inspect for hardware issues.

[Editor's note: You can read our in-depth review of the Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Nitro+ graphics card here]

In the comments, the affected user explains that the burned cable was part of an included adaptor that connects the 12V-2x6 connector on the GPU to three 8-pin connectors on the PSU side. As commenters in the thread have also pointed out, these sorts of failures seem to be more common when similar adaptors are used, which makes sense, since most official sources attribute failures to overheating caused by improper contact across one or more pins. Increasing the number of potential failures also increases the likelihood of said failure.

Acer today unveiled a refreshed lineup of Nitro gaming laptops, desktops and high-definition gaming monitors. The Nitro devices combine powerful hardware, intelligent software and immersive visuals to elevate gaming and creative experiences.

Acer Nitro V 16: Cinematic Gaming Visuals and AI-Powered Performance
The Acer Nitro V 16 (ANV16-72) is built for gamers and creators seeking speed, clarity, and multitasking power. Equipped with up to an Intel Core 9 processor 270H and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU, it delivers smooth cinematic gameplay and streaming. Powered by the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, GeForce RTX 50 Series Laptop GPUs bring game-changing capabilities to gamers and creators. Equipped with a massive level of AI horsepower, the RTX 50 Series enables new experiences and next-level graphics fidelity. Multiply performance with NVIDIA DLSS 4, generate images at unprecedented speed, and unleash creativity with NVIDIA Studio. Plus, access NVIDIA NIM Microservices - state-of-the-art AI models that let enthusiasts and developers build AI assistants, agents, and workflows with peak performance on NIM-ready AI systems. Intel Application Optimization also boosts performance by intelligently allocating application resources in real time.

Acer was late with its contribution of custom RDNA 4 graphics card; introductory press material was issued after the fact, and potential buyers have waited a while for retail stock to reach end destinations. The Taiwanese manufacturer's opening salvo consisted of premium "Predator BiFrost" and sub-flagship "Nitro" overclocked Radeon RX 9070 XT models, but non-XT options did not launch at the same time. This morning, VideoCardz noted the availability of Predator BiFrost RX 9070 OC 16 GB cards in Japan. The company's regional office has opened its direct-to-customer order book; to the tune of 128,800 yen (including sales tax) per unit—converting to roughly ~$902 (USD).

Unlike XT equivalents, Acer's Predator BiFrost OC and Nitro OC RX 9070 models feature two 8-pin power connectors (instead of three units). Currently, the Geizhals/Skinflint price aggregator denotes stock—of both SKUs—being present at e-tailers in Germany and Austria. According to comparisons, the best Predator BiFrost RX 9070 OC deal comes in at €709 (inc. VAT), at GALAXUS. PLAYOX and Office-Partner.de offer the lowest Nitro RX 9070 OC price tags: €669 (inc. VAT), plus €4.99 processing fees. Acer has not publicly disclosed the reasons behind subsequent sluggish launches of its RDNA 4 portfolio. Curiously enough, Yeston—best known for dealing in eccentric card designs—foresaw a post-April stabilization of Radeon RX 9070 series shipments.

NVIDIA's oft-leaked GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile 8 GB GPU did not make a debut appearance at last week's Computex trade show. Given the very recent launch of GeForce RTX 5060 8 GB laptops, truly cost-conscious buyers will need to wait patiently for the next wave of even cheaper portable "Blackwell" hardware. Mid-way through the month, a British e-tailer inadvertently published pre-launch prices. Lenovo's least expensive option—utilizing a GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile card—sported a (likely placeholder) tag of £1149.97 (inc. VAT). So far, a lot of pre-release information has been sourced from official websites or webstores.

Yesterday, VideoCardz shared another NDA-buster—courtesy of Acer's "Predator and Nitro Gaming Laptop GPU Power Specifications page." At the time of writing, offending items are no longer present within this list. Prior to removal, three configurable Nitro AI laptop models (16, 16S, and 18) were visible with GeForce RTX 5050 specifications (alongside RTX 5060, 5070 and 5070 Ti options). Only clock speed and TGP data points were logged by the notorious investigator (see below). Currently, TechPowerUp's GPU database entry contains speculative information—a "GB207" GPU identifier was unearthed a while ago, but some insiders reckon that Team Green's GeForce RTX 5050 Mobile design will be based on "GB206" silicon. Additionally, debates continue to rage over the selection of GDDR7 or GDDR6 VRAM. So far, all launched tiers of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 50-series have emerged with GDDR7 memory modules.

At Computex 2025, Acer showcased its monitor lineup that spans from dual-screen portable displays to ultra-fast 500 Hz gaming monitors, and we couldn't miss the opportunity to take a quick look at these products. We start with the Nitro PG271K, a 27-inch "portable" gaming monitor (as much as a 27-inch monitor can be portable) with an IPS panel with dual-resolution modes. You can make it run at 4K (3840 x 2160) resolution with 72 Hz refresh rate, or you can change it to FHD (1920 x 1080) with 144 Hz refresh rate with 0.5 ms response time for some gaming sessions. It has a kickstand and VESA mount holes for different mounting options and include USB-C and HDMI connections.

In the same portable section we founded Acer PD243YE. This is a dual-screen portable monitor with two 23.5-inch screens stacked on top of each other. Both screens are 1080p IPS panels. The top screen tilts from 0 to 315 degrees on hinges, which gives you a lot of setup flexibility. Connects via USB-C or HDMI.

Acer today launched an impressive array of monitors designed for gaming and entertainment. The lineup features two new 27-inch Predator QD-OLED gaming monitors, each hitting the mark in terms of clarity and color performance for high-framerate games. The "UltraSpeed" Predator X27U F5 tops out at an impressive 500 Hz refresh rate, while the Predator X27 X smooths details with a crisp 4K resolution and 240 Hz refresh rate. Both models are calibrated with True 10Bit color and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology for vivid and tear-free graphics.

Acer also expanded its line of multi-functional Nitro Google TV smart monitors with the Acer Nitro GA321QK P and the curved Acer Nitro GA341CUR W0. With Google TV, users can enjoy 400,000+ movies, shows, and more available across 10,000+ apps, all on one screen. Their high-resolution panels and fast refresh rates of up to 240 Hz set them apart from other smart monitors, making them great options for casual gaming as well. Additionally, the ultra-thin Acer Nitro PG271K portable monitor combines 4K resolution, a space-saving design, and an adjustable stand for versatile viewing.

Acer today announced the launch of two new cutting-edge gaming monitors - the Predator XB323QK V4 and Acer Nitro XV240 F6. Designed to offer enhancements to gaming visuals and performance, the new monitors set a high standard for gaming displays in the market, delivering exceptional refresh rates, stunning visuals, and advanced features tailored to meet the demands of competitive players and enthusiasts.

Predator XB323QK V4: Expansive 4K Gaming

Whether exploring expansive open worlds or engaging in high-intensity action sequences, the stunning visuals of the XB323QK V4 bring every game to life in breathtaking detail.

Acer today announced the expansion of its mainstream Nitro gaming line with the launch of the new Acer Nitro AI laptops and the Nitro 20 desktop. The Nitro range brings a full-package gaming experience and great value for gamers and content creators, combining robust processing power, essential computing features, and more without breaking the bank. The addition of slim laptops and a compact Windows PC option also support users with limited space for their gaming set-ups.

The Nitro AI laptops are Copilot+ PCs, powered by AMD Ryzen AI 300 Series processors and equipped with the game-changing NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 Series Laptop GPUs to make more powerful AI rendering capabilities more accessible. The Nitro 20 desktop also utilizes AI processors and up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 GPU, focusing on better energy efficiency with a smaller footprint.

Just over two weeks ago, Acer unveiled its brand-new Predator BiFrost and Nitro Radeon RX 9070 Series graphics cards. Despite being a late contributor to AMD's opening salvo of RDNA 4, the Taiwanese manufacturer made a big impression with its reveal of four premium specced models. In particular, Acer's Predator BiFrost Radeon RX 9070 OC 16 GB and Nitro Radeon RX 9070 XT OC 16 GB SKUs will be joining an elite group of custom options that boast 3100 MHz boost clocks. Mid-March press material did not provide any insight into launch pricing—weeks later, Overclockers UK has opened up pre-orders for the four Predator BiFrost and Nitro RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 cards. Just prior to RDNA 4 launch time, Overclockers UK (OcUK) received plenty of press attention—in particular, their building of a sizable cube out of an impressive quantity of Sapphire PULSE Radeon RX 9070 XT retail stock.

The British retailer seemed confident with its pre-kickoff accumulation of various AIB models, but demand quickly outstripped supply on day one. Unfortunately, OcUK has implemented dreaded price hikes across its Radeon RX 9070 Series product listings. Looking at Acer's main competition in the premium custom Radeon RX 9070 XT tier, OcUK has jacked up prices by £20 to £30 (approx.). ASRock's Radeon RX 9070 XT Taichi OC model—one of the elite 3.1 GHz boosters—launched at £700 (including VAT, shipping fee is extra), but was adjusted up to £728.99 (~$943 USD) at some point last month. The British store's pre-order price for the "cheaper" Nitro Radeon RX 9070 XT OC SKU is £749.99 (inc. VAT), while the flagship Predator BiFrost costs £779.99 (inc. VAT) for reservation. GIGABYTE's (almost) £800 AORUS RX 9070 XT ELITE model is the only other 3.1 GHz boost-capable option sitting above the £750 mark. Looking at "on paper" information (e.g. aluminium backplates, state-of-the-art cooling, etc.)—Acer's two headliners are impressive offerings, but rival cards already exist with similar credentials at "lower prices." Historically, TechPowerUp's resident GPU reviewer—W1zzard—has not received any graphics card samples from the manufacturer. Perhaps this drought will end in the near future...
