The Acer Nitro XV282K is a fantastic monitor that features mostly superb build quality, 4K resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and two HDMI 2.1 ports. Unfortunately, while console gaming, it’s unable to switch between user modes, meaning you’re forced to use HDR, even when you’d prefer not to. For PC gamers and creatives, the XV282K’s gorgeous 4K IPS will be a huge boon – but its sky-high price may deter most.
