The Acer Predator X34 X5 monitor levels up your gaming

Gaming is about many things these days and one of those things can be having your games look as good as possible. Enter the Predator X34 X5 gaming monitor from Acer. The company’s latest iteration of the Predator X34 series. It features a stunning 34-inch OLED panel with an ultrawide design and a UWQHD resolution of 3,440 x 1,440. Suffice it to say, it’s a beautiful monitor to look at, even when there’s nothing on the screen.

Of course, it certainly looks better when you’re playing games on it than just sitting there. But its aesthetics do deserve to be appreciated. And it most certainly has some beautiful aesthetics. Not just because of the 1800R curved panel, but also the sleek metal stand that the monitor sits on. Which by the way, allows the monitor to tilt and swivel. You can adjust the height too. I had the opportunity to try one of the older Predator X34 monitors out and it was one of the best gaming monitors I’ve ever played games on. Acer has only made the monitor better with all the upgrades.

The new Predator X34 X5 monitor also comes with multiple HDMI 2.1 ports as well as DisplayPort 1.4 and USB Type-C connectivity. This is why the Acer Predator X34 X5 earned the Best of Computex 2024 award from Android Headlines.

The Acer Predator X34 X5’s 240Hz refresh helps games look ultra-smooth

A monitor with a fast refresh rate can really boost the gaming experience. While not absolutely necessary, a monitor with a fast refresh rate certainly makes gameplay smoother and it can give you an advantage in multiplayer games. The Acer Predator X34 X5 delivers here with a 240Hz panel with a lightning-fast 0.03ms response time. Additionally, it features two 5-watt speakers built-in. Whether you’re using this monitor for a console or PC, the built-in speakers mean you don’t need to have external audio sources to hear your games or other content.

The monitor also has a built-in KVM switch. Meaning if you have two PCs hooked up to it, you can use one keyboard and mouse to swap between the two pretty effortlessly. Additionally, the Acer Predator X34 X5 supports both AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-Sync. This is easily one of Acer’s best gaming monitors to date, and it’s why we awarded the Predator X34 X5 the Best of Computex 2024 award.
