Acer Predator XR341CK FreeSync Monitor Review

Hardware Canucks tried the Acer Predator XR341CK FreeSync Monitor

A quote from the article:
AMD's FreeSync technology is in the process of making some serious inroads among monitor vendors due to its ease-of-implementation and affordability factor. Indeed we?ve looked at a few monitors with this technology thus far and have been consistently impressed with their capabilities. However, the one thing holding FreeSync back from true legitimacy among gamers was it integration into everything but leading-edge monitors. That's going to change in a big way with the Acer Predator XR341CK.

So what makes this monitor so different from current crop of FreeSync offerings? Pretty much everything. It has a massive 34? 21:9 curved IPS panel, a FreeSync range of 30Hz to 75Hz and a host of other features that allow Acer to place this among their other flagship monitors. Obviously this pushes FreeSync firmly into the enthusiast market, a segment that was underserved by AMD's technology not that long ago. More importantly, while the XR341CK can be considered one of the highest end monitors currently available, it is still a good $250 less than Acer's ever slightly more capable Predator-series G-SYNC alternative.
