If you’re in the market for a zippy monitor for those long gaming sessions, you better hold onto your seat, as we’ve got a great deal for you today. Amazon’s currently selling the Acer Nitro gaming monitor for $199.99, which is 33 percent off of the original $299.99 price. This monitor has a refresh rate of 180Hz and a response time of 1ms, which should help with smooth visuals and gameplay. It also has two speakers and it’s compatible with VESA mounting devices.
The Acer Nitro is quite spacious at 27-inches, which is a great size for competitive gaming, as it allows you to have a wide view of the game you’re playing. The monitor also has a resolution of 2560×1440. That’s delightfully sharp for playing games and watching movies. You’re even getting AMD FreeSync, which helps reduce any screen tearing issues. It achieves this by syncing up the monitor’s refresh rate with your PC’s GPU. For ports, you’ll find one DisplayPort 1.2, two HDMI 2.0, and one audio out port.
This is a fantastic deal, but things tend to change quickly around here, so you better hop on it now.
