AOC G2460PQU vs Acer Predator XB241H bmipr

The G2460PQU features an anti-glare panel, which significantly reduces or eliminates reflections, loss of clarity due to light, fingerprints and smudges.

With a response time of just 1ms, the AOC G2460VWQ6 is one of the fastest monitors on the market. Ideal for fast-paced gaming situations such as first person shooters.

This AOC display features Anti-Blue Light technology, which reduces the amount of blue light emitted from the screen if needed and requested. Blue light has been proven to decrease sleep quality; this feature is especially helpful when used during the night.

The G2460PQU features two USB 2.0 ports on the side of the monitor, of which one is a high-powered port for fast charging of mobile devices. There are also two ports on the back of the display.

You can easily adjust the height of the monitor, and you can also rotate it and switch between landscape and portrait mode.

Although the maximum brightness for the G2460PQU is specified at 350 cd (candela)/m², the display actually performs even better. With a testing result of 423 cd/m², the maximum brightness is extremely high. For comparison: the average similar TN-display only reaches 300 cd/m².

The build quality of the G2460PQU is very high and the overall feel of the display is quite robust. The display also isn't prone to accidental slipping due to the sturdy stand.

This display features a very fast refresh rate of 144Hz, or 144 times per second. This allows for extremely fluent gameplay and is a major improvement over regular 60Hz displays.

The Acer XB241H has one of the fastest panels in its price range. Once overclocked, its native refresh rate can reach a whopping 180 Hz.

High refresh rate can give you an advantage over your opponents who play on slower monitors because you'll receive faster image updates. For example, a 180 Hz monitor will be on average 11 ms ahead of a corresponding 60 Hz one, entirely due to the higher refresh rate.

The overclocking procedure for the Acer XB241H is straightforward and can be done via the OSD. It imposes no danger to the hardware.

The native refresh rate of a monitor corresponds to the number of frames it can show each second. For example, a 180 Hz monitor can display up to 180 frames a second.

The Acer XB241H does not flicker because this monitor uses a DC signal to dim its backlight. Backlight flickering is horrible for your eyes; it can cause severe eye fatigue over the extensive use of a monitor.

You'll always be able to experience the best possible viewing angles by adjusting tilt angle, swivel angle, and height of this monitor according to your workspace requirements.

This monitor's pair of the builtin speakers might turn out to be occasionally useful.

The Acer XB241H displays motion smoothly, without artificial motion blur or ghosting effects because of the monitor's fast pixel response time and high refresh rate.

Fast-moving objects on screen don't leave noticeable trails as each pixel can change its color within only one millisecond because of the monitor's full pixel response time of 1 ms.

The image looks clear and fluid since the monitor refreshes every 5.55 ms. This is caused by the monitor's native refresh rate of 180 Hz.

The overall picture quality of the Acer Predator XB241H is on par with the majority of gaming monitors in this price range. It has reasonable contrast ratio and high peak brightness.

The monitor can display crisp and vivid colors as well as some average-looking dark scenes. Colors look genuinely luminous thanks to the monitor's peak brightness of 350 nits. Dark scenes look mediocre as the monitor's native contrast ratio of 1000:1 is not high enough to push its blacks to highly intense levels.

G-Sync eliminates screen tearing and stutter as it allows a monitor to synchronize its refresh rate to the framerate of a video card.

G-Sync works with all the Nvidia graphics cards that are newer than the GTX 650Ti.

Even though no reputable source has tested the input lag of this monitor yet, after evaluating the overall user experience and the input lag tests of other Acer monitors from 2015-2016, it is clear that the input lag of this monitor is most likely to be within the 4.5 ms range. It's a rather good result because it is on par with what the most responsive panels in this price range offer.

Input lag is a monitor's delay that is caused by the onboard image processing. Having this value as low as possible is essential in gaming.

Armed with a fast and responsive TN panel, the Acer Predator XB241H offers fluid and connected gaming experience without sacrificing the overall picture quality. In its price range, it is one of the very best gaming monitors money can buy.
