Acer is upping the ante in the home PC realm with a new range of LCD monitors called the P Series designed to maximise multimedia enjoyment with high quality displays and attractive, sleek chassis.

The widescreen monitors are developed for web-browsing, word processing and home entertainment applications including gaming and viewing and editing photographs and home movies with enhanced graphics and display technologies. 

“The new P Series was designed for sustained use, and is sure to please those who demand text and graphics clarity,” said Acer Computer Australia display product manager, Gaba Cheng.

“The Series offers the best visual experience combined with the style and looks necessary for the modern home environment.”

The Acer P Series features a specialised technology called eColor Management which adapts the performance of the panel to different environments and lighting conditions. Two of the models feature a 2000:1 contrast ratio and a 5ms response rate, with HDCP support.

The range features keen attention to aesthetics with black glossy outers and an attractive V-shaped design.

The P Series comes in both 19- and 22-inch models and is priced from RRP $399 to $549.
