Acer Nitro KG241Y Sbiip 23.8” Full HD (1920 x 1080) VA Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync Premium Technology | 165Hz Refresh Rate | 1ms (VRB) | ZeroFrame Design | 1 x Display Port 1.2 & 2 x HDMI 2.0

Ive been looking for a 27 165Hz Gaming Monitor for a while and oh boy, I think this is the one! I have been using this Monitor for well over 2 months on heavy use, so heres my current review. The KG272 is an Amazing Monitor, the picture quality is fantastic, and the brightness is great, although keep in mind it took me around 1 hour to adjust all of the brightness settings because when the monitor comes right out of the box, its really... REALLY dim. The Speakers on the KG272 are well... not amazing but not exactly terrible, but thats expected as most monitors, including this one is not going to have good speakers, I advise just using headphones and plugging it into the monitor itself. Wait, did I forget to mention that part? Yeah, one of the really odd designs of this about this monitor is that to receive any audio you MUST plug your headphones into the monitor, if you dont plug your headphones, headset, earphones, etc, into the monitor, well youre out of luck, say goodbye to audio! Ive noticed that there is little to no ghosting either or any backlight bleed, which is a HUGE problem with a lot of Gaming monitors, so Im super glad Acer has this under control for the KG272. Alright now lets talk about the stand, the stand is actually REALLY solid for what it is, with hard plastic and a metal base to hold the monitor, it stays in its place really solidly and doesnt wiggle/shake at all, although it depends on what youre doing of course. Oh, also here is a few tips/troubleshooting for anyone thats confused on why their monitor will not run at the advertised 165Hz! - Make sure your cable support 165Hz, if it doesnt, buy one. - Make sure your cable is plugged into your Graphics Card display port, this is a common issue among a lot of people where they just plug it into the motherboard. - Make sure you set your 165Hz settings in Windows, to get to this go to Settings > System > Display > Advanced Display and select the highest refresh rate you can. Hope that helps if anyone is confused on why it isnt working properly! Overall, I think this Monitor is really solid and well worth the price after 2 months of use and I will keep everyone updated if anything happens in the next months (5/25/22).

Very nice monitor for the price. Everything it great it has great picture. Only con for me is the viewing angles are a little bad but not horrible. From the way I have to set it up I can see a little green in the white writing on the top right. Other then that it’s amazing for the price and I would definitely recommend it.

Very good gaming monitor. I purchased this when it was on sale for 144 bucks and it was a steal. One of the best monitors out there I highly recommend it. Only bad thing I can think of are the buttons on the actual monitor and the fact that it doesn’t have a USB port. Update- I brought another 32 in acre monitor so now this one is being used as my second monitor and it’s been a year and still no problem

As a previous owner Acer Nitro VG271 Pbmiipx 27 inch, this model is almost the exact same but even better~! I really love the IPS Display and the improvement of having incremental increase of 144 to 165 Hertz! It really well made and suited for 1080p as most of us would stuck on rather than using a 1440p, but it does get the job done and there is really nothing bad to say about this. I absolutely love this!

Bought this screen as a replacement and it was the cheapest 144hz 27in monitor on amazon. Honestly great for the price! Looks amazing.

La verdad al principio al leer las reseñas tuve mis dudas, aparte del miedo a que llegara con el panel roto, y todo en vano porque llegó en perfecto estado, tanto el brillo como la calidad de imágen son buenísimos. Respecto a las opiniones donde dicen que no es un monitor de 144hz no les crean ellos simplemente no saben configurarlo, por cierto si lo saben cómo, es muy simple busquen en Youtube un tutorial que apenas duran 3 minutos.

Good overall, especially for the price (I purchased for $120). More ghosting than I wouldve liked, but I got what I paid for.

Ive used a lot of monitors, this one has the WORST ghosting. Doing anything in-game just results in a blurry mess. Also, the response time feels slow, definitely isnt the 1ms as advertised. The colors are awful out of box and still are bad with adjustment. For slightly more money, you can find countless monitors that are far better than this one. I would never recommend this monitor for gaming at any level and I can barely recommend it as a 2nd monitor. Dont waste your money here.

We bought this for our 16 yo son for gaming this Christmas. Hes hugged us and said thank you about a dozen times! We have a new Netgear mesh wifi system and have speeds in the neighborhood of 950Mbps download and this monitor has an amazing refresh rate to keep up with it. We can barely get him off his Xbox. Great product and we definitely recommend.

I had to put the brightness to 100 and still looks kinda dim.
