Acer Launches New Predator Range Using 240 Hz 1ms GtG IPS Panels

Acer Japan has released information about the Predator range now including Fast IPS panels in two new monitors with super refresh rates.

The site points towards there being 24.5-inch and 27-inch versions of the Predator, both of them with the Fast IPS panels and 240 Hz refresh rates. Both monitors also support VESA Adaptive-Sync and are certified for Display HDR400.

The two models, XB253QGX bmiiprzx and the XB273GX bmiiprzx are currently the only two models in the Fast IPS range and are 1920×1080 resolution with 1 ms GtG response times. These response times can be reduced to 0.1 ms – 0.5 ms with the overdrive, and both feature support for G-SYNC Compatibility too.

According to Anandtech, both of the monitors have only been introduced to Japan, with Acer Japan planning to start selling them soon. The 24.5-inch looks to be going for the equivalent of $430, while the 27-inch is looking to be more around the $500 range.
