With the Agon AG325QN/EU, AOC offers a new best 1440p 240hz monitor for gaming. This should be able to convince in particular with its extremely fast reaction and is also equipped with a practical USB hub.
With the Agon AG325QZN/EU, display specialist AOC is launching a new 32 inch QHD monitor for gamers. The refresh rate is 240 Hz, the MPRT response time is half a millisecond, and the gray-to-grey response time is one millisecond. With the help of a special mode, the input lag can be significantly reduced. FreeSync Premium is also supported.
It is a VA panel, which is relatively large at 31.5 inches – the resolution is 2,560 x 1,440 pixels. This resolution generally represents a good compromise between image quality and achievable frame rates with the native resolution, but the screen qualifies for a larger distance to the monitor with it and also because of the flat panel.
The brightness of the WLED lighting is rated at up to 400 cd/m², with eight local dimming areas available. The Agon AG325QZN/EU QHD ultrawide 1440p monitor is DisplayHDR 400 certified, but because of the relatively low, maximum brightness and also the static contrast ratio of 4,000:1, it should not be a high-end HDR display.
The system can accept video signals via HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.4. There is a USB hub with four USB 3.2 ports, with the corresponding connection cable for the PC also included. It is possible to use the stand to tilt, adjust the height, swivel, and even rotate the monitor by 90° in pivot mode.
