Review on Acer CG437K Pbmiiippuzx 4K Display, 144Hz, Backlit, Compatible with DisplayHDR 3840x2160 by David Ortega

Avoid this monitor, buy the LG CX48 instead

Do yourself a favor and buy a 48" LG CX TV/monitor. The CX48 costs about the same and is worth every penny. This panel (cg437k) has too many flaws at this price point and isn't worth the money. It has horrible ghosting issues, flickers at low framerates with G-Sync enabled, HDR 1000 is an unusable blurry disgusting mess, you get better colors when it's off, and few games actually have decent HDR (Horizon Zero Dawn on PC) I'm not sure why you would ever go for this LG CX at this price point 144Hz doesn't work even after overclocking as the display doesn't work properly with artifacts or just a black screen The LG may have slightly higher input lag on paper, but it feels snappy, smooth and responsive when gaming, while even at high frame rates the cg437k handles s feels sluggish with ghosting and blurring. This panel is terrible, I tried to love it. Do yourself a favor and get the LG CX 48, you will love it and you will not regret it.

Pros
  • wide spectrum
Cons
  • Limited customization options
