If you’re a PC gamer, you probably know how important it is to play on a high refresh rate monitor. When things heat up in competitive first person shooters in which every second counts, a good monitor can help you win the match. If you’re in the market for such a monitor, you’re in luck. Best Buy’s selling the Acer KA727 Ebi monitor for just $109.99, which is a savings of $50. Not only does this monitor have a 100Hz refresh rate, but it also has FreeSync (AMD Adaptive Sync) built in.
Let’s talk specs for a second. The 27-inch Acer KA272 Ebi has a resolution of 1920×1080, a maximum refresh rate of 100Hz, and a lightning-fast response time of 1ms. Given those numbers, visuals should be nice and smooth during game-play. This monitor also has FreeSync, which syncs up the monitor’s refresh rate with your GPU. This helps reduce screen tearing and stuttering issues, ultimately providing a more fluid gaming experience.
This is a really good 1080p monitor, especially for this ludicrously low price. Get it now, friends. I don’t expect this deal to last much longer.
