Acer has expanded its line of Predator gaming monitors with three new VESA DisplayHDR-Certified models— the Predator CG437K S, Predator X38 S, and Predator X28.

The Predator CG437K S is a 42.5-inch NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible gaming monitor with a UHD (3840 x 2160) display. The monitor comes with a 144 Hz refresh rate, 1 ms VRB response time, VESA DisplayHDR 1000 Certification with peak 1,000 nits brightness, Delta E<1 rating, and 90% coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut.

It contains a pair of HDMI 2.1 ports that support the latest game consoles and allows for 4K 144 Hz with VRR using only a single cable. However, a USB hub offers a USB-B port, a pair of both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports to support an array of peripherals, a USB Type-C (PD30W) port, and a built-in KVM switch.

Also, the monitor comes with NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility and RGB lighting strips. Besides, it also features various technology that allows the monitor to adjust to each user’s environment: Acer ColorSense adjusts the screen’s temperature to match the ambience of the environment, Acer LightSense detects the ambient lighting and adjusts the monitor’s brightness settings accordingly, whereas the Acer ProxiSense automatically wakes the monitor when users are nearby or dims it when they aren’t.

On the flip side, the Predator X38 S is a 2300R curved UWQHD+ (3840 x 1600) 37.5-inch Agile-Splendor IPS display monitor with a DCI-P3 98% wide color gamut, a Delta E<2 rating, and VESA DisplayHDR 600 Certification.

It has a 175Hz refresh rate (overclocked) and response time as low as 0.3 ms. Predator Game Mode offers players eight pre-set (customizable) display modes, while Acer LightSense and Acer ColorSense make automatic adjustments to screen brightness and color temperature based on the environment. The NVIDIA G-SYNC Esports Mode, however, is a display preset designed to ensure the lowest possible latency by turning off the variable backlight and makes it easier to distinguish objects in dark areas.

Furthermore, the Predator X38 S also includes the NVIDIA Reflex Latency Analyzer, a system latency measurement tool that detects clicks coming from the mouse and then measures the time it takes for the resulting pixels (i.e., a gun muzzle flash) to change on-screen, while NVIDIA G-SYNC ULTIMATE is eliminating screen tearing, minimizing display stutter and cutting down on input lag.

Lastly, the Predator X28 is a 28-inch UHD (3840 x 2160) monitor with a slim profile and narrow bezels. It features a VESA DisplayHDR400 Certified Agile-Splendor IPS display that offers a 155 Hz refresh rate (overclocked) with a 1 ms G-to-G response time with NVIDIA G-SYNC and G-SYNC Esports Mode.

The monitor also features the NVIDIA Reflex Latency Analyzer. Similar to the Predator CG437K S, it supports Acer LightSense, ColorSense, and ProxiSense to ensure that the monitor can adapt to any lighting.

Other features include BlueLightShield Pro and TUV Rheinland Eyesafe certification.
