I was a bit disappointed by the monitor’s contrast ratio, as it didn’t budge in HDR content. The monitor also provides good detail around bright highlights. Highlights that should appear truly searing, like a bright noon sun, seem to burst from the screen. I verified a maximum sustained brightness of 946 nits, which is excellent, and well-suited to HDR content on a PC. The Acer Predator X32 FP is VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certified. The added pixels produce an extremely crisp, attractive experience no matter how the monitor is used, and makes the monitor better for content creators (especially video creators) who need to work at 4K resolution. The Acer Predator X32 FP has a 4K panel, which sets it apart from less expensive options like the AOC Agon Pro AG274QZM and Cooler Master Tempest GP27Q, both of which stick to 1440P resolution.

The monitor offers gamma and color temperature adjustments, so both can be adjusted. I prefer this look, personally, but it may look a bit off if you prefer a color temperature above 6500K. The default color temperature was 6100K, a bit warmer than the target of 6500K, and much warmer than most monitors sold today. I measured a default gamma curve of 2.2, right on my preferred target.
