At IFA 2024 Acer have announced two new models in their Nitro line-up of gaming monitors, offering IPS panels and refresh rates of 500Hz+. The Nitro XV270 F5 is 27″ in size and offers a 1080p resolution and a 520Hz refresh rate while the Nitro XV270U F5 is also 27″ in size, has a higehr 1440p resolution but a slightly lower 500Hz refresh rate. these look like they will be the first 27″ sized monitors to be launched formally with 500Hz+ refresh rate, after the MSI MPG272QPX was quietly showcased at CES 2024 in January, but only as a prototype which we are told probably won’t be followed up on.
