Acer KG281K bmiipx 28" UHD Monitor AMD FreeSync Technology

The Gate of Smooth Gaming

In competitive gaming, every frame matters. Introducing Acer's KG281K gaming monitor - the Ultra HD resolution monitor that can keep up with your game play. Through AMD FreeSync technology, the game’s frame rate is determined by your graphics card, not the fixed refresh rate of the monitor, giving you a serious competitive edge. Plus, users can enjoy comfortable viewing experience while gaming via flicker-less, low dimming and ComfyView display. The design saves space on your desk and lets you place multiple monitors side by side to build a seamless big-screen display.

  • 28" Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) Widescreen TN Display with AMD FreeSync Technology
  • Response Time: 1ms, Pixel Pitch: 0.160mm
  • Inputs: 1 x Display Port & 2 x HDMI

See Gaming Differently

Acer KG281K 28" monitor features Ultra HD resolution (3840 x 2160) presenting stunning, high quality images with excellent detail that not only enhances users’ working efficiency, but creates outstanding visual enjoyment.

With AMD FreeSync, the game’s frame rate is determined by your graphics card, not the fixed refresh rate of the monitor. This means the monitor’s frames are synced with the graphics card’s frames, which eliminates screen tearing and delivers very smooth gaming experiences.

KG281K monitors, which support up to 10 bits, will capture 64 times more color than their 8bit counterparts, allowing images to appear smoother and more realistic.

A fast response time of 1ms enhances the in-game experience. No matter how fast-moving the action is, transitions are rendered smoothly without the annoying effects of smearing or ghosting.

Viewing Comfort

Acer's large 28-inch flicker-less monitor eliminates annoying screen flicker, and provides a comfortable viewing experience, especially for those heavy monitor users, like programmers, writers, students or graphic designers.

Acer VisionCare technology incorporates several features that take into consideration prolonged usage by heavy users such as programmers, writers, and graphic designers to reduce eye strain and provides a more comfortable viewing experience.

Sharp Style that’s Friendly

Give your neck a break too; the ergonomic stand lets you find your most comfortable view with tilts from -5°- 15°.

As part of our commitment to sustainable operations and corporate social responsibility, Acer uses methods to carry out product design and material management distinctly meant to reduce environmental impact.

    great monitor for general use and casual gaming.
    had this monitor for over a year now. it has definitely served me well and it seems like it will continue to do so. i am by no means a monitor guru or picture quality expert. i enjoy playing games, but I'm really bad at them. this Acer 4K monitor was an upgrade from my previous main monitor which was a 1200x600 resolution mystery HP monitor that i picked up from a garage sale five years ago for $5.this monitor looks amazing. 60hz at 4k looks great compared to what I had before. that being said, i have thoroughly enjoyed this monitor and it's great for very casual or cinematic gaming. I'm running a Ryzen 3900x and an RTX 2070 and i was able to get most games running at 50-60fps at or near max graphics settings in 4K.games look very pretty on this monitor and it seems responsive. i would probably not notice the difference between 5ms and 20ms response times, so the best i can say is that i didn't notice any input lag between my clicks/input and the action i saw on the screen.i have noticed 2 glaring issues that this monitor has.1) theres one dead pixel in the upper left corner of the screen. the only reason I noticed it was i thought it was dust at first and it didn't go away after i tried to wipe it off the screen. even knowing that it's there, it's small and it happens to be somewhere out of direct sight; i rarely ever notice that it's there. i didn't notice it until after I had owned the monitor for about year.2) when watching videos and looking at images, sometimes i notice the screen flickering when the majority of the screen is darker. this is significantly less apparent in games, and much more apparent in videos and movies with dark, moody, or low-light scenes.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Solid 4K UHD Monitor - Best $300 Spent
    Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2018
    I was skeptical at first to purchase this 4K UHD monitor since there was barely any real information online with reviews. I must say that I was not expecting as great of quality with this monitor as I am getting, but this is an awesome budget monitor for an Xbox One X @ 60FPS. The graphics are INSANE!! The monitor arrived with no imperfections, no back light bleed, and no dead pixels. Best $300 I spent for gaming the way it was intended!
