5 out of 5 stars
No problems, It works great!
I was looking for a decent 120hz monitor, and this is truly one of the most inexpensive ones. I play mostly FPS games, and so the extra refresh rate is important. I was a bit uncertain from all the reviews saying that it had dead pixels, etc. on arrival. I tried my luck since I haven't yet had problems with anything ordered online. When I used it for the first time it worked great and am using it as I type this now. In both games and the Windows OS I definitely notice the difference over 60hz. I'm not extremely color picky, but I do realize that this monitor doesn't have quite as good color reproduction as, say, an IPS monitor. The ONE thing I don't like is the backlight bleed at the bottom of the screen. It is only really noticeable on a dark screen. It still earns five stars, because for only paying $250 I can't complain. Overall great monitor for gaming and regular use.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent 3D monitor with Full HD resolution
    Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    I bought this monitor simply to pair it up with the nVidia 3D vision gaming. I considered the following to upgrade my 22" Samsung 206BW -

    * Samsung 2233 3D monitor - too expensive and only 1 DVI input
    * Viewsonic 3D monitor - too expensive and only 1 DVI input
    * Alienware 3D monitor - way too expensive

    I needed something to hook up my Xbox360 and PC to and play in 3D. This was the answer for $100 more than the Samsung/Viewsonic and totally worth it - you get FULL HD resolution - 1920x1080 [ vs 1680x1050 from Samsung/Viewsonic ], you get 24" ( 23.6" technically ) [ vs 22" ], you get 3 ( yes, THREE ! ) inputs [ 1 dual-link DVI, 1 HDMI and 1 VGA vs 1 DVI from Samsung/Viewsonic ], PLUS an audio out cable so you can send the HDMI audio signal to good external speakers, AND it has external controls for all settings, unlike the Samsung/Viewsonic so its easy to adjust.

    All this means, the Acer is a phenomenal value over the Samsung/Viewsonic anyday if you need more than 1 Input.

    After I repartitioned my Linux to make space for Windows 7 and I got grub2 going again to boot up Win XP, Win 7 and Linux, I tried out the monitor in each of the 3 environments.

    Its got a problem in Linux when switching virtual consoles. If you stick with the X-console ( the VC that runs the Xserver ), you will be fine, but switch to one of the other VC's and X locks up. I'm using the latest nvidia drivers from the restricted repo in Ubuntu. However, it works quite well at 1920x1080. The colors are crisp and vivid, however, unless you adjust the settings a bit, the text can be bit small/fuzzy. A little Xconfig ( via nvidia control ) tweaking and it looked great. I think it looked better than my 22" Samsung and I had great real estate. Easily fits 3 terminals side by side. !!!

    Then tried WinXP and it worked great too at 1920x1080. Just ensure ClearType LCD effect is on and fonts render crisp and sharp. Gaming response was terrific ( 2ms ) but I already had 2ms gaming before. No ghosting.

    Then, I finally tried out the piece de la resistance - Windows 7 with 3-D glasses. Win 7 looked amazing ( the wallpaper looked breathtakingly good ) and installed the 3D stereo driver. After calibration, the first image popped up of Burnout and it looked PHENOMENAL. I was simply blown away. I did game in 3D almost 10 years ago on my eDimensional 3D glasses with CRT back then and after a decade, I was seeing 3D at home again !!! WHAT A FEELING... 3D is the future. Its just .... incredible. Its gotta be seen to believe it. Anyone thinking its a gimmick, well, you don't know what you're missing out. Too bad.

    Now, mind you, nothing pops 'out' of the screen. i.e. nothing crosses your screen boundary. You get an immense sense of depth - like you're looking out a window with objects correctly positioned in front and behind. In effect, your screen feels like it goes beyond for a huge distance.
    Also, there's a few seconds of screen going blank as the display switches to 120Hz and when it switches back.

    I tried out the picture packs and some demo videos ( which didn't play for some reason even though I tried out the nvidia stereo player. I think its because it can only be 3D in full screen mode because refresh rate has to be 120Hz whereas in window mode, you can't have that ). I tried out Half Life: Portal and it looked AWESOME in 3D. The portals took on a whole new life.

    I don't think however, you can game for more than an hour or two at most in 3D. Its somewhat taxing on the brain. ( which is a good thing btw ). Also, you're stuck with nVidia and the few 120Hz LCD monitors but this isn't a drawback at all. Its bad for the market, but good for them.

    In conclusion - this ACER monitor is a good buy and I wholly recommend it. 5/5 stars.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Monitor!
    Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    I have had this monitor for about two months now without any problems what so ever *knock on wood* the 120hz refresh rate is worth the money alone for this monitor, Any game i play weather it being a new game or a older game they all run great with vsync. I have actually never been able to use vsync untill this monitor. The 1920x1080 resolution and 120hz refresh rate make all my games look very crisp and smooth. This monitor has different modes, such as Graphics, Movie, User, Standard, and ECO. Now for the best part of this monitor the Steroscopic 3D! This monitor looks very awesome in 3D, I use the Nvidia 3D Vision setup i could not ask for a better 3D viewing experience weather it's a video game or a 3D Bluray movie it looks amazing. I also thought about buying two more of these monitors for the Nvidia surround setup, but this monitor is plenty big enough for me the 23.6" is enough to keep yours eyes busy. Thank you Amazon for the outstanding service, And thank you Acer for such a great product.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Good monitor, good price
    Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    Backstory: I bought this monitor as a precursor to my new gaming rig. I was interested in 3D gaming on my PC, so I started looking into possible setups. I decided on a monitor that used Nvidia's form of 3d since AMD's system still does not take advantage of multiple cards to boost 3D performance. I was quite interested in Alienware's monitor at first, but the price made it hard to commit. Then I found this monitor. The specs looked good, and the price was low enough to take a chance on.

    The monitor: I like it. I've had a number of displays in my time, and this one is giving me the nicest images since my old Gateway LP2407. Certainly better than the Dell monitors I've tried recently, even the supposedly "good" ones. Despite being a cheaper panel, the color modulation from different angles is very minimal. I'm also a graphic artist, besides a gamer. And nothing irks me like a display where the corners look different from the middle as I try to paint. Out of the box, the monitor was way overly vivid, but comes with decent calibration software that toned things back well enough. Also, the monitor comes with an HDMI, VGA, and Dual-DVI cord, which is pretty generous considering it is a "low cost" entry. I haven't received my new rig with the 3d kit yet, but I will update this when I do. So far though, this is a very good monitor at a good price. No frills, but I'd rather save $200 and buy a separate usb hub or speakers.

    IMPORTANT: You can only get the full 120hz refresh rate from your computer if you are connecting to the monitor via the Dual-DVI cord. I had to google that one to figure it out. So HMDI is out if you want the full she-bang out of this monitor.

    Pros: Low price, nice picture, 120hz, all cords come with box
    Cons: takes a bit to calibrate, no frills

    Update: It's been over a year since I purchased this monitor, and I thought I should finally update my experience. The unit still continues to function well, despite near constant use, which is a plus. No dead pixels, no discoloration. I have had time to notice a few things about it, though. The backlight has a pulse that moves slowly down the screen in waves. That sounds awful, I know, but its mostly only noticeable when looking at large banks of mid-tone-to-dark greys. As someone who works often in Photoshop and Illustrator, it shows up a lot in the default grey of the workspace. It also has a tendency to show up a bit in 3D mode. But 3D mode, in general, tends to highlight the limitations of TV's and monitors. It's never so noticeable as to ruin the experience. But you CAN notice it if you pay attention. Think of it as a small smudge on a piece of glass you are looking through. Ignore it, and your eyes adjust, and you'll forget its even there. Pay attention to it and it will drive you mad. Glasses wearers will know what I mean.
    I'd still recommend this monitor to people who are interested in 3D gaming on a budget. For the money, it's a solid piece of hardware. And it's seriously diminishing returns for your money to go with the more expensive "Better" alternatives.
