Our Verdict

Acer Nitro VG271UP Pbmiipx

ASUS TUF VG27AQ

The ASUS TUF VG27AQ is significantly better than the Acer Nitro VG271UP Pbmiipx. The ASUS has much better ergonomics, black uniformity, as well as a faster response time. However, the Acer has better color accuracy and can get brighter in HDR content. Additionally, the Asus' refresh rate can be factory overclocked to 165Hz, providing a smoother gaming experience overall.
