AOC's 27-inch monitor cuts down lag and tearing for smooth-as-butter gaming

AOC has announced the first offering from its new Agon range, which is a premium 27-inch gaming monitor that will be on sale soon.

The AG271QX has a TN panel with a resolution of 2560 x 1440, and it makes a play for super-smooth frame rates with a 1ms response time and 144Hz refresh rate.

On top of that, there’s adaptive-sync tech on board (compatible with AMD’s FreeSync) to smooth things over further and minimize any stuttering or tearing which can be highly distracting in fast-paced games like shooters.

AOC’s new display also offers a number of features targeted specifically at gamers, including a Low Input Lag mode which does away with the monitor’s image post-processing, meaning your mouse or keyboard commands happen on-screen with a minimum of delay.

Another mode, Shadow Control, allows contrast to be adjusted in very dark or light areas, so enemies can be spotted more easily – all without affecting any normally-lit areas across the screen.
