Acer has unveiled a refreshed lineup of gaming displays from its Predator and Nitro series, including new 1000Hz options for those chasing the fastest possible refresh rates, and new SpatialLabs 3D displays for those who miss the days of 3D TVs.

Starting with the Predator XB273K 3D, this monitor features a 180Hz refresh rate at 4K resolution. However, its main selling point is the 3D eye-tracking technology, allowing for glasses-free 3D. For someone after something a bit more traditional, there is the Predator X34 F1, which uses a curved WQHD (3440×1440) QD-OLED Penta Tandem panel with 360Hz refresh rate, 0.03ms GTG response time, 99% DCI-P3 gamut coverage, and VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500.

The curved 34-inch Acer Nitro XV345CKR P offers a 5K WUHD VA panel with 1344-zone Mini LED backlighting. It features a 180Hz refresh rate and supports DFR for 360Hz at WFHD resolution. The screen is VESA DisplayHDR 1000-certified and offers 95% DCI-P3 gamut coverage. As for the 31.5-inch Acer Nitro XV320QX, it features a 5K IPS panel with a 165Hz refresh rate and a 0.5ms GTG response time. DFR technology enables 330Hz operation when dropped to QHD. It features 95% DCI-P3 coverage, Acer HDR400, an Acer Smart Dial, and an infrared remote control.

Lastly, the 27-inch Acer Nitro XV273U F5 offers a QHD IPS panel with a native 540Hz refresh rate, which can be increased to 1000Hz at HD resolution via DFR, making it one of the fastest gaming monitors on the market.

Acer has refreshed its Predator Helios Neo lineup with three new gaming laptops built around Intel’s Core Ultra 200HX Plus processors. Acer has also upgraded the gaming grunt that these laptops provide with the addition of an RTX 5080 laptop GPU. The updated 16‑inch and 18‑inch models focus on high‑end performance, while the new 16S variant offers a slimmer, more portable option.

The Predator Helios Neo 16S AI is the thinnest model, measuring in at under 18.9mm thick. It supports up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus and an RTX 5080 Laptop GPU, paired with a 240Hz WQXGA OLED HDR display with 1ms response time and 100% DCI‑P3 coverage. Cooling is handled by a Predator AeroBlade 3D fan and liquid metal thermal grease to maintain performance in the compact chassis. The standard Predator Helios Neo 16 AI offers the same CPU and GPU options but adds a more robust thermal setup with AeroBlade 3D cooling, liquid metal and vector heat pipes.

The Predator Helios Neo 18 AI is the option for those who require a larger display, offering an 18‑inch WQXGA screen with a 240Hz refresh rate and 100% DCI‑P3 coverage. It introduces Acer’s new Ambient Contrast Ratio film, designed to reduce glare and improve contrast in bright environments. Cooling again uses AeroBlade 3D fans, liquid metal and vector heat pipes to sustain top‑end performance. As for the core hardware, it offers the same Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus and RTX 5080 as its smaller sibling.

All three laptops include Acer’s AI‑driven PredatorSense controls for performance tuning, RGB lighting and fan management. Acer PurifiedVoice and PurifiedView use AI for noise reduction and improved video quality, while Acer Intelligence Space adds tools such as Game Assistant and ProCam for gameplay support and automatic clip capture.

All three of Acer's newly refreshed laptop models will be available in Europe starting in June.
