Acer has unveiled several new premier gaming monitors, including a high-refresh rate 1,000Hz screen and a creator-focused 6K display.
The reveal took place at CES 2026 in Las Vegas last week, where the company also debuted an eco-friendly laser projector designed for gamers and home cinema enthusiasts.
The Acer CES 2026 devices include:
- Predator XB273U F6: 1,000Hz refresh rate with AMD FreeSync Premium for ultra-fast competitive gaming.
- Predator X34 F3: 360Hz QD-OLED monitor focused on speed and contrast.
- Nitro XV270X P: 5K resolution with refresh rates of up to 330Hz.
- ProDesigner PE320QX: 6K monitor designed for colour accuracy and creative work.
- Vero HL1820 RGB: 4K UHD laser projector with an eco-conscious design for gaming and films.
1,000Hz Predator XB273U F6 gaming monitor
The 27-inch Predator XB273U F6 draws attention with its headline 1,000Hz refresh rate, though reaching that figure requires enabling Acer’s Dynamic Frequency and Resolution mode at 1,280×720 (720p), a resolution that PC gamers can label a compromise. At the screen’s native 2,560×1,440 resolution, the IPS panel runs at up to 500Hz, which is still a very high refresh rate, while maintaining the sharper image quality and colour consistency expected from a QHD IPS display.
“The Predator XB273U F6 represents the next frontier in gaming displays,” says Charles Wang, Acer digital displays senior product manager. “With its 500 Hz refresh rate, advanced IPS technology, and 1,000 Hz dynamic mode, it delivers both speed and visual fidelity that redefine what competitive gamers can expect from a monitor.”
The monitor is factory calibrated to cover 95% of the DCI-P3 and 99% of the sRGB colour gamut. It has a 2,000:1 native contrast ratio, 350 nits of brightness, and 178-degree viewing angles, which support consistent image quality across the display.
Connectivity includes two HDMI 2.1 ports, a DisplayPort 1.4 connection, audio out, and dual built-in 2 W speakers. The stand supports tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustment of up to 5.9 inches, with VESA mount compatibility for alternative setups. Settings such as brightness, volume, and shortcuts can be adjusted using the Acer Smart Dial remote control.
The Predator XB273U F6 will be available in North America in the second quarter of the 2026, starting at $799.99; in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) in the third quarter, starting at EUR 899; and in China in the second quarter, starting at RMB 6,999.
QD-OLED Predator X34 F3 gaming monitor
The Predator X34 F3 is a 34-inch curved QD-OLED monitor with a native resolution of 3,440×1,440 and a refresh rate of up to 360Hz. It supports this refresh rate via DisplayPort 1.4 and two HDMI 2.1 ports. The panel uses QD-OLED technology, which enables deep blacks and high contrast, and is aimed at users who prioritise fast refresh rates alongside wide-screen resolution.
The monitor has a minimum grey-to-grey response time of 0.03ms and supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro to reduce screen tearing during gameplay. Acer lists a peak brightness of 500 nits and an Adaptive Contrast Management ratio of up to 1,000,000,000:1.
