Our Verdict
Acer Nitro XZ322QU V3bmiiphx
Dell G2725D
The Dell G2725D and the Acer Nitro XZ322QU V3bmiiphx are 1440p gaming monitors. The Acer is the better option for most gamers, as it displays fast-moving objects more crisply. It also delivers a more immersive experience, displaying a wider range of colors and deeper blacks in a dark room. However, the Dell is far less expensive, so you may want to consider it if you're on a limited budget.
