@@TheWorstBridger You do realise how much smoother CRT is than any of these monitors nowadays? Have you tried 120hz CRT? It's zero motion blur and it's so damn smooth. I own a 2546k (best 240hz and even more expensive than this 390hz) and even with elmb it doesn't come close to crt. I've tried 390hz too and none of them are close to crt yet.
You prob had a bad Alienware unit, because 360hz and 390hz all use the same panel. Only difference is that without the Gsync scaler the motion blur reduction goes all the way to 390hz. The additional 30hz is only an overclock.
nice video production man! this panel is such a great deal. it's also available under Acers sub brand, Aopen. (same monitor, different branding) I was able to get one for as low as $260. which is a great deal for sure.
@@dorintony Who cares bro, if he prefers high refresh over resolution then that's his choice. 4K panels just arent there yet in terms of price and performance.
Yes, even people that bought 360 hertzs 1 milisecond pixel response time say there was a noticeable difference between those and 390 hertzs 0,5 milisecond, which is surprising because anything above 240 hertzs is hardly noticeable, but I think they are speaking the truth, just like you did, maybe the difference is minimal, but it's definitely there as far as reviews go, mine is arriving 20 september and on, I hope it's worth it, I'm upgrading from 77 hertzs monitor, people say it's night and day, I will cry when I see above 60 hertzs for sure.
if 1440p id buy, but being 1080p ill stick with my 240 hz monitor until i can get a 1440p or better 25" monitor with higher then 240 hz refresh rate. 1080 p is great but for newer monitors it seems a bit dated..
You need to fix your camera setting and take AW2521H ufo pursuit again because the one you included in your videos is irrepresentable of real world result. Its overexposed. Use lower ISO setting or reduce monitor brightness, make sure shutter speed is at S1/90 or 1/100 for 390Hz. Also any additional digital vibrance can screw it up. The one you reviewed is Acer Nitro XV252Q F. The other same/similar model is Aopen (Acer) FireLegend 25XV2QF.
I have the 1440p 270hz monitor from Acer. Like you were saying the build quality is cheeks but the panel is solid. Much better than the AH2521HFL. Also I have been playing Valorant on 1440p with like 400 frames avg on a 5800x and 3080 FE, 1440p is super relevant now competitively.
Why is 1440p super releveant now competitively, I thought 1080p had super wide angle to see everything on screen, like for example window and door (wood and stone) in Dust2 B site compared to inferior 720p, I just bought this monitor, don't tell me I screwed it up please, why is it so relevant?, please explain, I'm worried now.
@@brucefly3612 There is nothing to be worried about. Once you are at 1080p, that is more than good enough. I like a 27" screen and 1440p is perfect for the pixel density at that size. 1080p or 1440p has nothing to do with your POV and how much you can see. It is just your resolution. Now if you make your display aspect ratio different (4:3 is stretched, 16:9 is default), that can change how much you can see. Again, don't worry, most pros use 1080p anyways. I was just meaning that 1440p is now viable to play with because of the hardware advances.
@@kudosstyle24 I don't understand your meaning. What does pixel density have to do with the framerate of 1440p on current hardware being competitively viable?
@@Ryn0_333 I didn't say anything about framerate, the only thing I was trying to make clear, are the resolutions I recommend according to the size of the monitor to get a good pixel density. I actually prefer playing at 24.5" 1080p 390hz, than at 1440p 144hz 27"
Great review but I can't find this monitor anywhere smh - tryna upgrade from a 144hz.. but might take the advice on upgrading the PC first (2080 x i7-8700k - I want a 3080ti or 3090)

@@brucefly3612 thanks for the insight man! could you possibly send an amazon link to the one you ordered? or maybe name the brand that you're using? there are just so many to pick from i'm not sure which will work
id buy this if i had a pc. do you recommend any pre-built PCs? i have no budget; even up to $6000. i dont have the time to learn how to build a PC but i cant find any graphic cards online. any PC recommendations?
If you want the maximum preformance any PC with a R9 5950x and 3090 will be good alot of pre-built slack on ram if your going for the best of the best make sure it's 64gb ram with a speed of 3200mhz +
Wish I could be this rich someday 🤣🤣🤣🤣. If you need to improve your latencies and hit more at shooters,let me know, I studied PC latencies for over a year and this makes a night and day difference in esports games. Only 40$ and you pay only if you feel the difference in performance, if not, the setup is free.
Omen X27 is good but lacks some features like backlight strobing, black equalizer and its TN. If you can swing another 100$ more than that get the Odyssey G7. Best 1440p 240hz right now.
Well, goodbye ASUS PG259QN 360hz. I'm alright without the stand, will be VESA mounting it anyway. Why would you want a stand that takes up desk space which limits your mouse movement anyway?
@@riba2233 Asus is worse overall, it also have worse crispness compared to Acer, I have both and the only nice thing about my Asus is that it has more features and a physical G-sync module, otherwise is an overpriced piece of crap, also, it's stand looks dumb and takes more space, worst pixel response time, I only play on my Acer, I feel scammed now that I have both to compare, I should have waited for the Acer.
Guys, rather buy the Asus 280hz Monitor. Its cheaper, die Qaulity is WAY better and 280Hz is more than enough. U wont get 390FPS anyway, not even in Csgo.
I get over 300 fps in an old Gtx 1050 on my other computer, what's your point?, with anything from Gtx 1060 and above you get stable +300 fps in Counter strike: Global offensive.
@@brucefly3612 Nope u dont. U will drop down all the time. Even with a 2080 u drop under 300 fps from time to time. And yeah, Csgo is prob. the only game where u even get close to 300 fps with cheap cards like an 1060. So dont even think about playing other games.
@@blackjack25992 Obviously I will drop if I play free far all with more players than average competitive matchmaking, but 5 versus 5 is mostly stable, also, if I notice frames dropping a lot I will just dowload aim practise maps, there is ways around it.
@@blackjack25992 In case you need to upgrade both, meaning you have low budget 60 hertzs monitor and graphics card, you want the best of the best and know the monitor will last you well over 5 years, but it depends, it's not for most people, most will prefer better visuals, higher resolution and better colors, this monitor it's very niche and not for most people.
Is there really that much of a difference? I only have 144 but I can’t seem to understand how there’s much difference between the acer and 2546k. Like if you are running 400 FPS on both monitors it’s still gonna be pushing out the latest frame to the monitor, it’s just that the gap between the next one is like 2ms later right? Surely dyac clarity would be better still if you ran both monitors at the same FPS
It's not much of a difference, even though I have both Asus 360 hertzs and Acer, I can hardly notice a difference, I notice better cryspness on the Acer and slightly better pixel response time, if they had the same I doubt I would notice the 30 hertzs difference, but it doesn't mean it's not there, it's just so small, if you are into competitive gaming and can get 240-280 hertzs for half the price or even 60% of the Acer I suggest you skip it, anything beyond 144 hertzs is very small, and won't make you much better, but if you got the budget to spend 500€ and can buy this monster of monitor go for it, there is a difference, it's just too bad it's not as big as first time you try 144 hertzs after playing 60 hertzs for years, but that's what it is, significant difference, not world changing one.
@@Ivan68588 well it just is. Almost a common knowledge these days. There are monitors that claim are 1 or 4ms but are actually 12ms. Please see some reviews like I've told you.
Hello, I have a question. When I play games (apex Valoran has both), the motion blur of the game is a bit exaggerated (the motion in the game has been turned off), but I still have this problem. I went to the computer repairer to check the screen. The question is why my graphics card is Msi 6900xt gaming z trio and the screen is Acer xv252qf screen lock 240hz. The game also wants to ask whether it is a driver problem or what settings have been changed. Please help
You don’t have to be getting 390 FPS to take advantage of a monitor like this. Anything above 240 FPS will give a better experience than can be had on a 240 Hz monitor. Some games that can run at 300 FPS or more include Valorant, Fortnite, Rocket League, Call of Duty, aim trainers, Splitgate, other source games, and probably a ton of others I don’t play.
omen for purely better response time and lag. The acer for smothness and refresh rate ... watch this video from Techless for more info ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x7PDKjUhi_I.html
Lol you're acting like your frames aren't going to drop as far on this monitor. Your frames are going to have the same minimum fps on this screen as any 240hz. Also there's not really anything out that averages higher than around 180-200fps in warzone.
@@lizardpeter not the main point of the comment. Main point was that if you are cap fps at 390fps while using this monitor and it drops to 300 it won't be that noticeable, while if you were capped at 240fps it would drop to 200 and you'd notice but realistically the same pc and the same game/settings, if from 390fps you drop to 300, at 240 you don't drop to 200, you simply don't drop at all
@@LexJJ Who cares if you drop from 390 frames per second to 300, you won't notice a thing at those high refresh rates, if you meant smoothness compared to 240 hertzs with no frame drops then yeah, but I would rather have superior 390 hertzs monitor at times even if unstable experience.
@@brucefly3612 that's not what I said, I just said if you were to drop to 200 from 240, you'd drop to 200 from 390 as well, that was basically it, I agree with what you said
That's quite an expensive monitor. But I am looking for something at bigger resolution, but is bigger than 21 inch. 24 inch is probably file if I have it bit further away. The stand sure was flimsy thx for sharing this. But I 390hz? Is it actually needed? Do you notice it? I am currently using a over 7 year old monitor at 60hz.
I'm sorry I insulted your music taste, now that you gave me a heart in the comment I felt bad and reconsidered my opinion, I deleted it, sometimes I need to learn how to be silent instead of been negative, keep up the good work, I loved the video, you were very informative when you spoke about the monitor, good job.
If it is 50-60% price of this Acer monitor definitely not, I would suggest anyone to invest in 240-280 hertzs ones if they find it at good price, otherwise if it's very close just go for the Acer.
Bro.. 75 hz is pure garbo, is not good for gaming.. You don't gotta go all out and get a 360 hz, or even a 240hz, but a 140-165 hz is a necessity.. I was at a 75 hz monitor when I first got a prebuilt, then a year later I built my own pc and bought a 165 hz monitor, and I couldn't even imagine going back to 75 hz. It would be unplayable.
Hey bro, I've had this monitor for a while and recently a friend bought another acer 144 hz model, we were configuring the colors and his monitor had the option to save the settings in: (some mode) but my monitor that is 390 hz doesn't have it, I can save the settings in some mode but the color settings don't save! can you help me?
