According to IDC, the world leading gaming monitor brand is AGON by AOC, and the brand has just announced the first QD-OLED monitors in the AOC GAMING lineup, making premium OLED technology accessible to mainstream competitive gamers. The 27-inch (26.5” / 67.3 cm) AOC GAMING Q27G4ZDR and Q27G4SDR bring the instant response times and superior contrast of QD-OLED panels to the entry-level gaming category, featuring 240 Hz and 360 Hz refresh rates respectively. Both 27-inch monitors showcase the latest G4 series design language with clean, subtle aesthetics and deliver professional-grade performance at breakthrough pricing.
QD-OLED enters the mainstream
The Q27G4ZDR and Q27G4SDR monitors deliver the same fundamental OLED advantages found in premium displays – virtually infinite contrast ratios, exceptional colour gamut with 147.6% sRGB coverage and 99.1% DCI-P3 accuracy, and QHD (2560×1440) resolution with 110.84 pixels per inch. The 10-bit panel depth provides 1.07 billion colours for smooth gradients and precise colour reproduction. Both models feature HDR capabilities – the Q27G4ZDR supports HDR10 while the Q27G4SDR features VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification – ensuring sharp highlight and shadow detail that helps competitive players read game environments effectively.
Like all OLED monitors in the AGON by AOC range, both models include comprehensive OLED Care features and are backed by a 3-year warranty covering burn-in when used according to the guidelines. This industry-leading warranty coverage provides complete confidence in premium OLED technology at mainstream pricing.
Ultimate refresh rates and instant response
The Q27G4ZDR at 240 Hz provides the ideal balance of smooth competitive performance and visual quality, while the Q27G4SDR pushes refresh rates to 360 Hz for players demanding the maximum competitive advantage. Both monitors achieve the 0.03 ms GtG response times that make OLED technology superior for competitive gaming, virtually eliminating ghosting and motion blur even during the fastest action sequences. Adaptive-Sync technology with NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible certification eliminates screen tearing across variable frame rates, ensuring fluid gameplay at any framerate.
Advanced HDR performance
The Q27G4ZDR supports HDR10 with 400 cd/m² brightness (APL 10%) and 1.5M:1 contrast ratio, while the Q27G4SDR features VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification with 1000 cd/m² peak brightness (APL 3%) for enhanced visual depth. This superior HDR implementation brings out details in both bright and dark scenes, creating more immersive gaming environments.
