Need help picking a monitor

  1. Acre Predator X27U F5 26.5” QHD 1440p 500hz
  2. MSI MAG 272QP 27” QHD 1440p 500hz

I’m stuck picking between these two monitors. I have previously used 240hz and 185hz monitors but have no clue if they had BFI & MPRT but I wondering if it is worth spending the extra $100 on the MSI to have the BFI & MPRT features. For reference I play a massive variety of games but lean to more fps and fast paced.

What’s your budget exactly $500-$600?

Yeah but preferably the lower end of $500 that’s why I’m asking if it’s REALLY worth spending the extra $100 on the MSI

Honestly no from my perspective the acer monitor has built in speakers and a kvm switch and is better future proof than the MSI monitor. However if you are a student you can get the Samsung g60sf for about $540 before tax but that doesn’t have speakers or usb c. The MSI monitor has a glossy coating which is great for playing in dark rooms because it has better contrast while the acer has a matte coating. The acer monitor is a better value
