An affordable gaming monitor with premium specs? Does such a thing exist? It sure does, and it’s the Acer FX240H gaming monitor. This monitor isn’t just great for gamers; it’s perfect for any heavy computer user. Read on to find out about the technology behind this monitor, and then enter this contest for a chance to win an Acer FX240H gaming monitor of your very own!
A sight for sore eyes
As someone who rarely games, it has never occurred to me that I might need a gaming monitor. After all, I spend most of my time either writing, designing, or aimlessly scrolling the web, not raiding tombs, stealing cars, or slaying undead opponents. Oh, how wrong I was.
You see, even if you’re not a gamer, you can still appreciate any technology that minimizes eye fatigue during long hours of staring at a screen. Many of us spend our day behind a computer at work only to go home for more quality screen time. Acer has thoughtfully equipped the Acer FX240H monitor with several features that help prevent that uncomfortable feeling of dry, tired eyes.
EyeProtect reduces eye strain, Flicker-less technology helps to eliminate annoying screen flicker, and the Blue Light Filter reduces your exposure to damaging blue light. It also has ComfyView technology which reduces the amount of light being reflected on your screen, so you won’t be moving around or squinting to avoid screen glare.
The screen can rotate from horizontal to portrait, which is ideal for programmers or media producers who like to like the option of working in both modes. The FX240H also promotes good sitting posture, adjusting vertically up to 5 inches, and tilting from -5 degrees to thirty-five degrees, so you don’t have to crane your neck for the best view of the screen.
Gamers rejoice
If you are a gamer, you’ll be pleased to find that the budget-friendly FX240H boasts outstanding specs under the hood. Blogger Steven Hill tested out this monitor recently, and he was a big fan. You can read his review and watch his video here:
Featuring Full HD 1080p resolution, the FX240H monitor boasts a 1ms response time and a 144hz refresh rate, making blur a thing of the past. It’s also AMD FreeSync-enabled which does away with image tears and choppiness, so you can play without broken frames. And built-in speakers mean you don’t have to connect an external set to enjoy immersive audio, whether it’s the in-game sound effects or that jazz playlist you like to play in the background while you work.
In conclusion, you don’t have to be an avid gamer to appreciate this monitor. The FX240H has something to enhance your time in front of the screen whether you’re a semi-pro gamer, graphic designer, web developer, or just a casual user who likes to stay up to date with the the best tech in the market.
