The lineup is headed by a duo of premium Predator QD-OLED gaming monitors that push the boundaries of display technology, complemented by versatile Nitro smart monitors with Google TV integration and a portable 4K solution.
Predator QD-OLED Gaming Monitors: Speed Meets Clarity
The Predator X27U F5 “UltraSpeed” monitor sets a new benchmark with its extraordinary 500 Hz refresh rate on a WQHD (2560×1440) QD-OLED panel.

The monitor features VESA DisplayHDR TrueBlack 500 certification, ensuring exceptional contrast with deep blacks and bright highlights. Color performance is equally impressive with Delta E<2 color accuracy and 99% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage.
For gamers who prioritize resolution without completely sacrificing speed, the Predator X27 X delivers 4K UHD resolution (3840×2160) on its QD-OLED panel with a still-impressive 240 Hz refresh rate. It carries VESA DisplayHDR TrueBlack 400 certification and maintains the same color accuracy standards as its faster sibling.
Both monitors boast a 0.03 ms gray-to-gray (GTG) response time and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro to eliminate screen tearing and stuttering.
