Acer Announces 35in Predator Z35 with G-sync and 200Hz

Acer Announces 35in Predator Z35 with G-sync and 200Hz

This one is fairly sexy and was mentioned by us already during computex. Acer Predator Z35 is 35" with a 21:9 ultra-wide aspect ratio and curved screen format. It comes with an AMVA panel (same as the recently released BenQ XR3501).

Like that model, the native refresh rate of the panel from AU Optronics is 144Hz, but Acer state in their press release that this can be overclocked to 200Hz.The Acer Predator Z35 will support NVIDIA G-sync technology, which is presumably where the 200Hz refresh rate max comes in, probably only supported when using G-sync although again that's to be confirmed. The resolution is relatively low, only offering 2560 x 1080 maximum, as opposed to the 3440 x 1440 we've seen from some 34" ultra-wide screens.

  • Acer announces its industry-leading Predator gaming monitor lineup now includes two new series with NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ technology
  • The Predator Z35 touts a 35-inch 21:9 UltraWide Full HD (2560x1080) panel with a curvature of 2000R for an immersive, dynamic and wraparound gaming experience
  • The Predator XB1 Series includes 27-inch and 28-inch models that give gamers a competitive edge with incredibly detailed images and superbly smooth visuals

Today Acer announced the expansion of its Predator gaming monitor lineup with two new series featuring NVIDIA® G-SYNC™, namely the curved Predator Z and the flat-panel Predator XB1. Providing a best-in-class gaming experience inside-and-out, both series build on Acer’s industry-leading display technology, which has been widely praised by gamers worldwide, combined with bold and angular Acer Predator design language and bright red accents. 

Curved Gaming at Full Throttle: Predator Z35 
The Predator Z35 is the first product of Acer’s Predator Z Series curved gaming monitors with NVIDIA® G-SYNC™. Its 35-inch 21:9 UltraWide Full HD (2560x1080) panel features a curvature of 2000R for immersive, wraparound gaming. The Predator Z35 incorporates NVIDIA® ULMB™ (Ultra Low Motion Blur) technology1, reducing motion blur by delivering sharp edges in fast-paced gaming environments. It also supports overclocking to a lightning-fast 200Hz refresh rate, so gamers can find their enemies before they spot them and enjoy crystal clear turns on the racetrack, and features powerful audio with DTS® Sound, 9Wx2 speakers and Acer TrueHarmony technology. 

Pixel-Perfect for a Competitive Edge: Predator XB1
The Predator XB1 Series features the latest NVIDIA® G-SYNC™ technology, giving gamers an advantage with incredibly detailed images and smooth visuals. The 27-inch models (XB271HK / XB271HU) feature a ZeroFrame edge-to-edge design with 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) or WQHD (2560 x 1440) IPS panels that support 100% of the sRGB color gamut, while the XB271HU supports NVIDIA® ULMB™ and refresh rates of up to 144Hz. The 28-inch model (XB281HK) features a 4K UHD panel that has a fast GTG (gray to gray) response time of 1ms, rendering fast-moving actions or dramatic transitions smoothly without smearing or ghosting.

In-Game Advantage with GameView 
The new Predator gaming monitors feature GameView technology, which allows gamers to swiftly toggle between three customizable display profiles, tweaking settings such as Dark Boost, Overclock, and aim-point assistance to suit a wide gamut of games. It allows quick display adjustment while in-game without the need to navigate through layers of OSD menus, a significant advantage when every split second counts. 

Pricing and Availability 
The Predator Z35 will be available in North America in December with prices starting at US$1199.99, in EMEA in December with prices starting at €1,099. The Predator XB1 Series will be available in North America in November with prices starting at US$799.99, in EMEA in October with prices starting at €699.

You dont have to be running 200 fps to be able to feel the benefit of high refresh rates.

In some games i can feel the difference between 100 and 144 hz ,Far Cry 4 was one of them for me , I meen 120 was smooth but 144 was even smoother and less noticeable screen tearing to ...

but still we will have to wait for a review . :)
Those do not apply under G-Sync / FreeSync as these technologies are variable refresh rate technologies.

Aside from each frame being drawn in 1/200 s vs. 1 / 144 s, leading to slightly less input latency, 100FPS @ 144Hz G-Sync and 100FPS @ 200Hz G-Sync are identical in terms of smoothness and tearing.

exactly the only difference between 144hz and 200hz will be a slightly lower input latency, I think it's good manufacturers are increasing refresh rates tho but personally i'm not a fan of the curved screens, for me they seem to warp the image, still a nice screen tho despite the resolution.

Sorry Acer, no sale. That res is a joke


Ofcourse the guys with 2x Titan X will say that.


But for a guy like me with a 25inch UltraWide A 2560x1080 that wants above 75hz, this monitor is awesome.

But he ll I can play BF4 @ 3440x1440 high settings and get an avg of 90 fps on
670 sli.
So downsampling can help make up for it, even if it doesnt have the true higher pixel count.

This res is far from a joke for sim racing. This is what we've been waiting for as an alternative to 3 screens at a res that allows for very high framerates.
The fact it is capable of 200hz is just double win.
