24" Acer GF246
The monitor has a VESA mount. In terms of pixel density, the Acer GF246 has an excellent density of 91 pixels-per-inch, resulting in sharper text and picture quality. The Acer GF246 has the Display Port and this is essential for NVIDIA cards to work with AMD FreeSync. For the average response rate, the Acer GF246 scores 4 ms, which ensures effective synchronization with the high refresh rate. The minimum response rate of Acer GF246 is 1 ms, which is eliminates ghosting effects. For graphics color quality, the Acer GF246 has an excellent color depth of 8 -bit, resulting in smoother gradients and more accurate colors. With the AMD FreeSync support, this monitor is compatible with both AMD and NVIDIA graphics cards. The monitor has an unimpressive contrast ratio of 1000 : 1. It is worth noting that the Acer GF246 is a relatively old monitor. The brightness of Acer GF246 is lower than other monitors. Acer GF246 has a total input lag of 19 ms, which is bad among the competition. The Acer GF246 has a maximum refresh rate of 75 Hz and this may be too low for the extremely fast frame rates in competitive games. Graphically demanding games may cause frame drops outside the adative refresh rate of 55 Hz. The monitor uses a TN panel which suffers from color shifting when viewed from horizontal and vertical angles and has slightly washed colors compared to IPS and VA panels.
