Acer XB323K: 4K IPS monitor with 144 Hz and HDMI 2.1

What They Say

Prad.de reports that Acer has released a 32″ UltraHD monitor (XB323K) in China with a high refresh rate of 144Hz and certification to DisplayHDR 600. It is G-Sync Compatible. Native contrast is 1200:1 and luminance of 700 cd/m² from the IPS panel which is reported as having a 1ms response time (GtG) and a delta-E of less than 1.

Colour coverage is 99.5% of AdobeRGB and 99% of DCI-P3. There are dual HDMI2.1 ports and 1 DisplayPort 1.4 (with DSC).

Pricing in China is equivalent to around €1239 and it is expected in November.

What We Think

Getting to high refresh rates with GPUs at this resolution took some time. Even now, Toms Hardware puts average game frame rate from the best GPU at around 111Hz. Still, having 144Hz should give some upgrade-proofing. This kind of monitor should last a good number of years and I have to admit, even as a non-gamer, the specification looks good. (BR)
