Acer serves up HX2000 and FHX3200 LCD monitors for overseas lovers

Got a thing for glossy black, narrow bezels and decent resolutions? If so, why not have a gander at Acer's latest duo? Announced this fine morning over in Japan, the HX2000 is a 20-inch panel with a 1,600 x 900 resolution, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, 300 nits of brightness and a five millisecond response time. The big brother has admittedly garnered the majority of our love, as the 23-inch FHX2300 packs a 40,000:1 contrast ratio, 300 nits of brightness, a five millisecond response time, an HDMI socket and a Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) resolution. There's no word yet on pricing and availability for the little guy, but the large card should launch soon in the Land of the Rising Sun for around ¥20,000 ($214).

$214 will be at least £214 on treasure island :-(

Is it FHX3200 or FHX2300??? I jumped when I saw 32 in the title :(

[Professor Kaos Posted Sep 8th 2009 6:07AM]

With that rez is that 16:9 aspect ratio?

If this is an Acer monitor, how come it says Gateway in the bottom corner? Does Acer make Gateway monitors? I seriously don't know, which is why I am asking.

LOLz. Gateway monitor... hehe

[z0phi3l Posted Sep 8th 2009 6:55AM]

Well, Acer does own Gateway, Packard Bell, and e-Machines, so at least their screens are ok, too bad the resolutions blow

[Level 5 Posted Sep 8th 2009 8:02AM]

Err.. 1920x1080 blows how again?

[eli Posted Sep 8th 2009 8:17AM]

i have the pictured gateway, but have no idea how it relates to acer?? The gateway is a good monitor for the record.

I don't understand the necessity for an HDMI input on a presumably speaker-free monitor.

Already have the HX2000 monitor, the thing is extremely nice.
