AOC is bringing two new monitors for gaming onto the market. CQ27G3SU (27-inch) and CQ32G3SU (31.5-inch) each AOC monitors have a VA panel with WQHD resolution (2560 x 1440 pixels), a refresh rate of up to 165 Hz, and extreme 1000 R curvature. The color depth is 8 bits, and the response time is 4 ms (gray to gray).
A blue light filter and flicker-free background lighting ensure eye-friendly sessions. FreeSync Premium is available as an anti-tearing technology. Alternatively, a mode against the blurring of moving images can be activated. While the 27-inch model comes with two integrated 3-watt speakers, the 31.5-inch model comes with two 5-watt sounders. There are two HDMI inputs, a DisplayPort, a USB hub, and a headphone output on the connection side.
Both monitors for gaming can be tilted, rotated, and adjusted in height. A VESA mounting (100 x 100 mm) does not seem to be missing either.
