ACER NITRO KG241YP3 Review: The Budget Gaming Monitor!

Acer has just released their brand new Acer Nitro KG241YP3, a new gaming monitor designed to provide users with an immersive gaming experience at an affordable price. In this review article, we’re going to delve deeper into this incredible monitor into its design, display, connectivity options and its computer stand.



Design 


The Acer Nitro KG241YP3 boasts a sleek body with thin bezels which is a design that can appeal to gamers. This design comes from Acer’s ZeroFrame build, which is especially useful for gamers who enjoy a wider and more immersive viewing experience while gaming.



Asides from that, the monitor also comes with a black matte finish which gives it a more sophisticated appearance while also being able to prevent any distracting reflections while you’re gaming. Furthermore, located at the back of the monitor is the ACER name on the top. Overall, the monitor’s build feels sturdy which showcases its durability.



Display


The display of the Acer Nitro KG241YP3 is its strongest asset as it boasts an impressive 23.8-inch display with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and a stunning Full HD (1920x1080) display to ensure that users will be able to get clear and crisp images on screen. In addition, it also comes with a rapid refresh rate of 180Hz with a 0.5ms to 2ms response time which helps to ensure that you’ll be able to ensure a smooth and immersive gaming experience! The monitor also comes with a peak brightness of up to 250 nits, which is decent for moderately lit environments such as indoor gaming.



Additionally, the Acer Nitro KG241YP3 also supports HDR10, which enhances the visual quality of the monitor with vivid colours as well as better contrasts. This feature enables the monitor to come with over 1 billion colours for more vibrant visuals and this will help ensure that you’ll be able to play your favourite games and experience lifelike colours in front of your eyes.


This monitor also comes on a Vertical Alignment (VA) panel, which not only helps to provide better contrasts compared to Twisted Nematic (TN) panels, but it also ensures that users will be able to experience a wider viewing angle, which is a positive while playing games. 



Furthermore, the Nitro KG241YP3 also features the AMD FreeSync Premium technology which is a significant boost for gamers, especially those that use AMD graphic cards. With this feature, users will be able to experience an incredibly smoother gaming experience, even for graphically demanding games.


Finally, Acer also ensures the health of their users' eyes as the monitor comes with the Acer VisionCare 1.0, which ensures that users will not have to worry about headaches or eye strain even during prolonged usage.


Connectivity


In terms of the connectivity, the Acer Nitro KG241YP3 consists of several ports for users to be able to use, such as a single HDMI 2.0 port as well as a single DisplayPort 1.4 input, which is able to support higher resolution and refresh rate. In addition to this, the monitor also comes with a headphone jack located at the back, allowing users to be able to listen to the audio while in game.



Computer Stand


Putting the final touches for the Acer Nitro KG241YP3 would be its computer stand. The computer stand is designed for sturdiness, making it more stable to prevent the monitor from dropping. Furthermore, the computer stand also enables users to be able to tilt the monitor back and forth to fit their comfortability when viewing the screen.



Additionally, the Nitro KG241YP3 is also VESA-compatible, which means that you will be able to attach the monitor to mounts of different brands as long as the mount sizing is the same. 


Verdict


In conclusion, the Acer Nitro KG241YP3 is definitely a monitor worth considering, especially if you’re a gamer. Aside from its many incredible features, the monitor is also a budget gaming monitor with its amazing price of RM379. With its impressive display and fast response speed, you’ll be able to enjoy your gaming experience with this monitor. Thus, if you’re looking to get a new monitor, then I personally believe that you can consider getting this monitor.
