How fast do you need your screen to be? If your answer is “as fast as possible,” you might want to check out Acer’s latest offering. The Nitro XV250 F6 is labelled as “UltraSpeed,” which means a blistering 600Hz refresh rate. That’s ten times the standard, and more than double the speed of the OLED gaming monitor I’m looking at right now.
But you don’t go that fast without a few compromises. First, it’s a 24-inch, 1080p monitor, so pretty small and low-res by today’s standards — though the ideal size for esports pros who want to easily watch their entire screen at once. It’s also a TN LCD panel, one of the least-desirable options if you want accurate colors and wide viewing angles. Such is the life of a gamer who feels the need for speed, as other technologies can’t easily hit blazing 600Hz refresh rates. Other specs for the monitor include a 350-nit brightness, HDR400 certification, AMD FreeSync compatibility, and (sigh) a pair of built-in 2-watt speakers. There’s no mention of any USB ports.

Acer will sell the Nitro XV250 F6 in the US for $700 starting in May, coming to other markets in the third quarter for 799 euros. Acer is also announcing the Predator XB323QK V4, a 32-inch, 4K gaming monitor with a more color-accurate IPS panel. It can handle 160Hz at its top resolution, but bumping it down to 1080p mode will let it speed up to 320Hz. It’ll go for 699 euro in the third quarter, with no US launch announced yet.
