AOC AG274QG 27-inch Gaming Monitor with G-Sync Ultimate and 240 Hz

Another new AOC gaming monitor is listed on the Amazon.co.uk of the Taiwanese company: the AOC AG274QG has a 27-inch IPS panel, has a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels (WQHD), and promises a refresh rate of up to 240 Hz, for which correspondingly potent gaming hardware is required.

The new AOC 27 inch gaming monitor has a contrast ratio of 1000:1, a color depth of 10 bits, and a response time of 1 ms (grey to gray). Other key data of the new 240Hz gaming monitor are 100 percent sRGB, 98 percent DCI-P3, a Delta-E value of less than 2, and a typical brightness of 450 cd/m².

The AOC AG274QG is also DisplayHDR 600-certified and relies on G-Sync Ultimate for anti-tearing technology. The latter takes effect from the first frame and can also handle active HDR in games. Adaptive Sync compatibility is also explicitly mentioned. The NVIDIA Reflex Latency Analyzer, which is also available, allows the user to determine and optimize the system’s input lag.

If desired, two integrated 5-watt loudspeakers act as sound generators. On the ergonomic side, hardly any wishes remain unfulfilled with rotation, tilt, height adjustment, pivot, VESA mount (100 x 100 mm), and blue light filtering. On the interface side, there are two HDMI 2.0 inputs, a DisplayPort 1.4, a USB 3.2 hub, a microphone input, and a headphone output. According to the specs, the typical power requirement of the monitor is 50 watts.

The new AOC gaming monitor weighs 6.03 kg without the stand and has dimensions of 607.7 x 351.5 x 74.3 mm (W x H x D).
