I have a significant vision impairment, and seeing certain motions on displays can be extremely disorienting for me. I bought this display on sale per Optimum Tech’s recommendation and it completely fixed my issue. I went from being confused why I couldn’t consistently track in games despite having good mechanics, to what feels like completely natural motion. I cannot recommend it enough.
Truthfully, I came from a 1440p 34" 144hz ultrawide to this. For me personally, I prefer a smaller screen because I don't have the best eye-sight, and I was slightly worried about the 1080p. At first I did notice a downgrade but nothing you don't really get used to. If you're into competitive gaming, and do college work as well as other stuff such as video editing, and graphics and you're coming from an ultrawide I highly recommend trying to switch over. The biggest issue I have with larger screens (27"+) is the amount of eye movement and head movement I have to do. Loving this monitor and pairing with with a 1440p LG 24" in portrait mode!
As always, great review! 7:21 I'm quite confident in Acer using some sort of overvolted backlight for the XV252QF, brightness with VRB Normal + what I assume is 60~70% off duty cycle is just too high for Acer to be using a standard backlight, this is great and I hope that more manufacturers will pair overvolted backlights with strobing. Before the Acer, Zowie was the only manufacturer that I'm aware of to have used overvolted backlights (If I remember correctly Qisda takes AUO panels and install custom backlight, Qisda also owns Zowie).
Does that mean I have to turn max brightness off to set VRB to normal? I have been working around the settings and most of the times I few like VRB don't really help, I rather have it off and play with HDR color for better immersion.
I have weird problem with Zowie monitors. I was using AOC 24G2 24" 144hz IPS monitor and had 0 problems with my eyes. After that I wanted to upgrade to 240hz IPS so I bought Dell S2522HG 24.5 (discount, that's why I bought it). Dell is bad for comp gaming (at lest that is my experience). I was so disappointed, and talking to my friend he told me just to go for Zowie XL2546K and it will be the best buy in my life. Why not, I sold Dell, bought Zowie and it was amazing. I was so good at the game, K/D went up, elo start building up, Until my eyes start hurting. I lower brightness, color, I even turned of DyAC+ cause of backlight strobing that you can see on your camera. Nothing helped, so I visit doctor. After doctor checked my eyes, he thought it was an infection. My eyes were hurting, they were so sensitive to light, even when I walk outside. It was terrible. Imagine a streamer that can't look at the screen. Yea, that was me. I got 4 different drops for my eyes, used that, used protection glasses, still nothing was better. So I made a pause from streaming, went for vacation and my eyes got better without meds, only sun and resting. When I came back home, start working, same shit again. Trust me, I do not sit at my pc whole day. I love sun, I workout, I walk in the forest, I go for hiking. I am active throughout the whole day. I just new it was Zowie monitor. Sold it, bought AOC AGON 360hz. Eyes got better, everything good, but AOC AGON is bad monitor for competitive gaming xD I was playing like that for few months, and BOOM new zowie monitor came out. 360hz, perfect picture, best monitor out there. Me idiot, called a guy so I can import that new monitor, told my self that this is better tech than 240hz, that I will watch at what color or brightness I play, etc. XL2566K is amazing monitor. I was flying, killing, it felt like cheating for how good Zowie monitor is. Everything was great. But, as with 240hz Zowie monitor, same shit start happening. My eyes are hurting again, it doesn't matter if I lower every settings down. Now I am writing this with sunglasses on (it is not a joke), brightness 0, black EQ 0. It does not help. I went from top player, top frager, to a guy with inconsistent aim, not able to carry my team. You can't keep your focus when you eyes are hurting and burning. Now, I called the same guy to import Acer XV252QF and I hope it will be great for competitive and for my eyes.
Hi, nice little story. Did it get better with this monitor? I just sent my benQ back aswell and bought this one, hooe i still can frag like on the zowie, i really was just easier to hold angles but i didnt like the picture and vertical viewing angle
Hi. I know it's a long time from making this vid. Really enjoyed watching this, and wanted to ask a question. Is it worth upgrading especially from the omen x 25 for mainly fortnite competetive?
Hey bro, I've had this monitor for a while and recently a friend bought another acer 144 hz model, we were configuring the colors and his monitor had the option to save the settings in: (some mode) but my monitor that is 390 hz doesn't have it, I can save the settings in some mode but the color settings don't save! can you help me?
This monitor is also able to overclock to 400hz, there's a hard-lock limit after that though. Requires some workarounds and disabling the OC mode (custom res in CRU) but free refresh rate is free refresh rate :D
Ok although I highly doubt someone is actually going to find this useful, if you want to use adaptive sync on this monitor for lower refresh rate gaming but are sad about the fact that overdrive is non adjustable, you can use CRU (custom resolution utility) to bump up the LFC floor to around 170hz, achieving a single overdrive experience,
Hi @techless Thanks for the review. When adjusting the colors, does one need to change both gain and bias to 50/50/49 or is it just gain that needs to be changed?
Hey love your monitor reviews! They are so useful! Quick question, in terms of pure display performance would you recommend the LG 24GN650 or the Asus VG249Q, they are currently both the same price. Greatly appreciated!
PSA: Exclusive to the United States there is a cheaper rebrand of this monitor for $330 at Microcenter Acer AOPEN 25XV2Q and it is shippable :) I have this version and love it!
@@mahdi-ev9ye Yes same exact monitor different branding. Bijan Jamshidi has a review of the cheaper Aopen variant only thing different I can find is this model doesn't have ELMB sync meaning you can't enable BFI and Freesync at the same time.
Thank you for the review. I hate to be this guy, but I gotta say it - at 0:11 your PC can be seen in the background along with the front AIO with tubes at the top. I think it may be beneficial to flip your radiator so that the tubes are at the bottom. Feel free to check out some info on front AIO mounting orientation. Please don't take this as a criticism, I'm writing this in hope that it possibly makes your cooler work better and live longer :-)
That's true, but just not possible unfortunately. That's a 360 rad and it just barely even fits with the tubes at the top. There's no space at the bottom left so I even had to leave out the bottom fan (might put one of those slim fans there eventually).
@techless Would you be able to recommend a clear winner between ViewSonic XG2405 and the Asus TUF VG249Q? If anyone has any idea on which monitor I should go for, I would appreciate the advice. I thought I would ask here since your reviews are by far and away the most concise and informative I've seen so far.
Saw this last friday on a webstore and couldnt help myself from buying one and the FIRST VIDEO after getting it home on my recomended was this one, to anyone contemplating if you should buy it just do it its sooooo good. Great vid tried your settings they worked like a charm!
I want to buy one of the 360hz monitor. I have doubts and can't decided between MSI NXG253R and ACER XV252QF. I am playing CS GO and Valorant, sometimes APEX. Which one should i choose?
Hello mister Technologyless, could you do a video where you explain how you measure response times? Or at least clarify it somewhere? Do you use something like Hardware Unboxed's strict methodology? Thank you very much for your help. :D
I'll probably make a video about the response time stuff at some point 🤔 I'm not using exactly the same testing methodology as HUB, but it's somewhat similar. I'm also using gamma correction.
You think I should get this monitor if I mainly play csgo, valorant, and escape from tarkov? Tarkov runs at around 70-100fps so is it worth since the motion performance isn’t so good at lower framerates
Of course, this does not affect the quality of the video, but I recommend that you try to keep your fingers on the mouse before and after clicking and not raise them in the air, as this results in a deterioration in reaction time.
@@erisium6988 There are always exceptions. He has a really specific mouse grip, but I don't think it's a matter of dispute that you can click faster if you already have your finger on the mouse. When using a weapon, it is no coincidence that people's fingers are on the trigger and not in front of it.
Fantastic! Now all we need is powerful enough CPU's and GPU's to run newer titles at 300+ FPS. Even with 3090 and w/e latest Intel/AMD CPU's are, you'll have hard time reaching the low 300's if you play anything but CSGO/Valorant. Yet 390Hz are 450€ is quite impressive. Really sweet price.
We do need better hardware but if you have high end shit and know how to optimize you can reach the low 300s . I made a custom resolution at 300 hz and it’s great. That’s another option for people
Hi techless, Wonder if I should set Windows/Nvidia control panel at 390hz then cap my game at 240fps, or set Windows/Nvidia control panel to 240hz then cap 240fps ingame, which way could be better for gaming? Or just the same feeling in game?
I have this monitor for almost a year now. But don't seem to see them fixing the brightness workaround issue. It's a pet peeve for sure everytime I on my pc or open certain games, it resets my brightness and I have to go to the menu and off and on the max brightness setting.
how do you find the performance of "overclocking" this monitor? ive tried overclocked monitors b4 and always turned off the overclock option bcus its not stable at times.
can you guys notice any difference in quality 23.8 vs 24.5 inch full hd monitor? does 24.5 inch make for example valorant/csgo crosshairs look different?
25 inch is fine I'm using that size ATM with my Acer nitro, quality in 1080p is no different to a 24inch from personal experience and yr crosshair won't look different tho i don't know why it would..
Yo i have a question I play a lot of games that I get 400fps + but my main game which is r6 only runs at 330 FPS sometimes it goes to 400 but that’s it so i want to know if i will have a lot of ghosting and if I should buy this monitor or no
That's totally fine, both if you decide to use Freesync or not. You won't get ghosting either way. Personally at 330 fps I'd even already be using the VRB mode.
Still looks better than those gamery style monitors with red and RGB and shit. I think they made it look good and it'a a design that fits with any environment.
i think u r stupid and the performance is the quality in tech, wen will ppl get that the outside part will always be plastic if u dont like it wrap it. PERIODT
Does anybody know of a good monitor for 60 120 and 240+ FPS in adaptive sync? I want one that doesnt need u to set overdrive every time. Ill be building a PC for my cousin.
I bought this monitor after watching this and optimum tech's video, however I'm sorry to say that I don't agree with any of the points mentioned in this video after using it for a week, firstly, this monitor is completely buggy, it has a weird flickering issue when connected with HDMI, tried everything but this doesn't seems to go, checked online there are many users facing this issue with this monitor so it's not just issue with my unit, secondly the VRB in Valorant gives me headache as it introduces a weird microstuttering, I have pretty decent config and I get around 400-500 fps in Valorant but with weird looking microstutters which I think is because of the crosstalk, the stutters are completely gone if I use the GSync but then it completely defeats the purpose of buying this monitor on first place, if anyone has solution to this one please let me know or else I have no other option but to send it back :(
1080p monitor are garb*ge, i actually have the XL2566K, the monitor are not smooth at all comparing to some 1440p or even 4K with Freesync Premium Pro, DyAc with 360hz is good but it's hilarious like how reviewer like this lying about strobing performance and take a picture about "perfect" strobe ufo while its just a small area at the midle which is "sharp" but bottom and top have A LOT of image duplication, like, the tons of crosstalk that have the XL2566K even with the best parameters/with blur buster utility is hilarious and counterproductive, it perform less well than previous Zowie. And Acer 390hz do that sh*t also ? I think these monitors are overated and only for cs:go/valorant kids. For me, only the XL2566K/XL2546K is a "good" choice for 1080p but never 1080p again for me. I play better with 4K and 1440p monitors if you use your PC for other thing than playing FPS like valorant or cs:go, 1080p is just garb*ge now. I mainly play Apex Legends at high level and i don't understand anything on these monitors while some people said that it's only the good choice...XDD What monitor do you have today ?
i have the same monitor for 1,5 years and i have a good pc so i run 390 fps capped and you have an big advantage but wouldnt recoommend when u have low frames must have atleast 390 stable bc u will not need this monitor and its kinda pricy
Adaptive sync is pointless on 240hz and above. Just set the monitor to max refresh and v sync off. No tearing can be seen at any fps anyway and the overdrive at normal will look good at all times.
@@re4796 If your monitor is always running at 240hz or above whatever fps you are getting tearing is not really an issue. 144hz monitors and the tearing is pretty horrid. I just leave my monitor at 240hz with v sync off and even if i'm gettimg 85fps it still looks excellent, that way you use the best overdrive setting and forget. As g sync etc matches fps to the hz you can end up with bad response times at lower refresh rates so why do that if tearing is a none issue anyway.
@@theoldpcgamer77 literally just cap 2 frames under refresh rate and you'll get all the latency and mouse interpolation benefits of G-SYNC... and tearing can still very much be seen at 240Hz.
This monitor is garbage for that price: Crosshair markings = useless and you can't change them (some weird crosshairs that take whole screen and no simple dot). Profiles = can't have VBR on. You will always have to set it every time opening PC or changing profiles because it disables itself each time. 390hz = it doesn't exist. The screen turns grey and buggy if you try to enable it. I'll post this everywhere so other people don't buy this shit. Just get benq...

Why Xv252q refresh rate is 239, not 240 ?
Is it safe to overclock it to 390hz? Will it do anything in the long run
yes of course it's safe
I just bought the monitor and am noticing some screen tearing and artifacts has anyone noticed this before?
Same for me, did you solve the problem?
it flickers like hell bro why do i listen to these reviews i bought it and it just sits here flickering at 390hz
How to buy this under 250$ ?
Does anybody know of a good monitor for 60 120 and 240+ FPS in adaptive sync?
I want one that doesnt need u to set overdrive every time.
Ill be building a PC for my cousin.
I bought this monitor after watching this and optimum tech's video, however I'm sorry to say that I don't agree with any of the points mentioned in this video after using it for a week, firstly, this monitor is completely buggy, it has a weird flickering issue when connected with HDMI, tried everything but this doesn't seems to go, checked online there are many users facing this issue with this monitor so it's not just issue with my unit, secondly the VRB in Valorant gives me headache as it introduces a weird microstuttering, I have pretty decent config and I get around 400-500 fps in Valorant but with weird looking microstutters which I think is because of the crosstalk, the stutters are completely gone if I use the GSync but then it completely defeats the purpose of buying this monitor on first place, if anyone has solution to this one please let me know or else I have no other option but to send it back :(
1080p monitor are garb*ge, i actually have the XL2566K, the monitor are not smooth at all comparing to some 1440p or even 4K with Freesync Premium Pro, DyAc with 360hz is good but it's hilarious like how reviewer like this lying about strobing performance and take a picture about "perfect" strobe ufo while its just a small area at the midle which is "sharp" but bottom and top have A LOT of image duplication, like, the tons of crosstalk that have the XL2566K even with the best parameters/with blur buster utility is hilarious and counterproductive, it perform less well than previous Zowie.
And Acer 390hz do that sh*t also ?
I think these monitors are overated and only for cs:go/valorant kids.
For me, only the XL2566K/XL2546K is a "good" choice for 1080p but never 1080p again for me.
I play better with 4K and 1440p monitors if you use your PC for other thing than playing FPS like valorant or cs:go, 1080p is just garb*ge now.
I mainly play Apex Legends at high level and i don't understand anything on these monitors while some people said that it's only the good choice...XDD
What monitor do you have today ?
You need to use a displayport cable 1.4
i have the same monitor for 1,5 years and i have a good pc so i run 390 fps capped and you have an big advantage but wouldnt recoommend when u have low frames must have atleast 390 stable bc u will not need this monitor and its kinda pricy
If this only had an USB Type C Port it would of been ideal for me.
Adaptive sync is pointless on 240hz and above. Just set the monitor to max refresh and v sync off. No tearing can be seen at any fps anyway and the overdrive at normal will look good at all times.
I don’t think most people enable VRR to rid tearing, it’s more about getting rid of frame mismatch judder.
You need atleast 1,000Hz to eliminate input tearing according to chief blurbuster
@@xm3405 the majority of people under 360Hz enable VRR to eliminate tearing

If your monitor is always running at 240hz or above whatever fps you are getting tearing is not really an issue. 144hz monitors and the tearing is pretty horrid. I just leave my monitor at 240hz with v sync off and even if i'm gettimg 85fps it still looks excellent, that way you use the best overdrive setting and forget. As g sync etc matches fps to the hz you can end up with bad response times at lower refresh rates so why do that if tearing is a none issue anyway.
@@theoldpcgamer77 literally just cap 2 frames under refresh rate and you'll get all the latency and mouse interpolation benefits of G-SYNC... and tearing can still very much be seen at 240Hz.
Try the lg 27gp850 plsss
This monitor is garbage for that price:
Crosshair markings = useless and you can't change them (some weird crosshairs that take whole screen and no simple dot).
Profiles = can't have VBR on. You will always have to set it every time opening PC or changing profiles because it disables itself each time.
390hz = it doesn't exist. The screen turns grey and buggy if you try to enable it.
I'll post this everywhere so other people don't buy this shit. Just get benq...
I wonder how many people can utilize anything beyond 144hz
Stand is shit and 390+fps is hard to get for most of ppl. But yea beside that its great monitor
