As mentioned in the above section of the video review, we consider the overall pixel on this model to be somewhere in the middle as far as VA models go. Somewhat weaker than what we observed on the Samsung C27HG70 and the AOC C24G1 (even using the ‘Medium’ overdrive setting there). And certainly weaker than on the LG 32GK850G, with appropriate settings. But improved compared to the likes of the AOC Q3279VWF. And quite in-line with the AOC AG322QCX, overall. We also made observations on Shadow of the Tomb Raider. These were largely similar to our observations on BFV and more broadly. This title had a large number of dark shades, with dimly lit interior areas, so ‘smeary’ trailing and ‘break-up’ trailing was quite common. Users probably won’t generally find it distracts too much from the gameplay on titles like this. It’s potentially a lot less bothersome than on titles like BFV, where the added perceived blur and removal of the competitive edge can be more of a nuisance. In case your FPS drops below 48FPS, LFC (Low Framerate Compensation) takes over and forces the monitor’s refresh rate to run at double or triple the frame rate for less tearing/stuttering. Other design features include a headset hanger, a carrying handle, and a light matte anti-glare screen coating. Thanks to the AOC AGON AG273QZ’s QHD display (2560x1440p) with 240Hz refresh rate and a 0.5ms response time, it’s safe to say the games we tried looked fantastic and ran smoothly with no lag at all. It is worth considering that to make use of the full refresh rate capabilities, your PC will need the hardware to be able to cope with it. The AOC AG273QCX monitor is a gaming monitor that provides an incredible gaming experience right at your fingertips! Its 27-inch curved display immerses you completely in your games. But that’s not all—this monitor offers many more exciting features! It has a super-fast refresh rate of 144 Hz. In addition, the 1440p display ensures clear and intricate visuals, so you won’t miss any detail in your games.

Additionally, the monitor lets you adjust the Motion Blur Reduction settings through its On-Screen Display menu. This way, you can find the right balance between clear motion and picture brightness according to your preferences. Features For gaming, it offers various features like Game Mode presets (FPS, RTS, Racing, and three customizable profiles), Shadow Control and Game Control for adjusting color and gamma, Overdrive for reducing motion blur, and Dial Point for a custom crosshair. The AG273QCX makes a great first impression. Its 27-inches is already generous but the 1800R curve works to enhance its perceived size, taking up more of your field of view. I’ve used curved displays large and small and, while it ultimately comes down to personal taste, I find 27-inches to be the point where they find their value in gaming as they’re large enough to actually draw me further into the game. The curve is also well implemented here as I didn’t see any text blurring or other deformation at the edges of the screen. As usual, if you’re running the monitor at 2560 x 1440 and viewing 1920 x 1080 content (for example a video over the internet or a Blu-ray, using movie software) then it is the GPU and software that handles the upscaling. That’s got nothing to do with the monitor itself – there is a little bit of softening to the image compared to viewing such content on a native Full HD monitor, but it’s not extreme and shouldn’t bother most users.

A very solid and ergonomically flexible design and a decent HDR implementation as far as VESA DisplayHDR 400 goes Setting the overdrive option to ‘Boost’ enables the Motion Blur Reduction technology. You cannot use MBR and VRR at the same time. The bottom line; a monitor with vibrant but varied colour output and strong contrast plus a half-decent HDR implementation, but some issues with pixel responsiveness and VRR that may put some users off.

The plethora of additional features as well the ergonomic design and exceptionally rich connectivity options are a big plus as well.

If you're still using a 1080p display, own an AMD GPU and are looking for an upgrade to 1440p, you should consider the AGON AG273QCX. It has all the features you'll need for butter-smooth gaming, it isn't too badly calibrated out-the-box, and it comes with FreeSync 2 and HDR support, though the latter isn't particularly noteworthy. The AOC AG273QCX is not certified as G-SYNC compatible by NVIDIA, but you can use FreeSync with compatible GPUs (GTX 10-series or newer).The panel driving that gaming experience is VA with a native resolution of 2560x1440 and a maximum refresh rate of 144Hz. This is the “sweet spot” for modern high refresh rate gaming, offering a fluid, crisp gaming experience while not demanding most cutting edge hardware on the market. The display is also DisplayHDR 400 certified, though that comes with a big caveat. Using the MBR option in the OSD (On-Screen Display) menu of the monitor, you can manually alter the strobing frequency (motion clarity vs picture brightness ratio). Features While technically the AG237QCX can meet the VESA requirements for DisplayHDR certification, it most certainly cannot at 144Hz, which most gamers buying this monitor will want to do. High refresh rate 2560 x 1440 monitors are highly sought-after amongst gamers who are looking for nice image quality and good responsiveness without requiring insane amounts of GPU horsepower. Many 27” options of this size and resolution use either a TN or IPS-type panel, but there are some exceptions. The AOC AG273QCX of the AGON 3 series is one such exception, featuring a curved VA panel. This is coupled with support for Adaptive-Sync (including AMD FreeSync 2) and HDR processing. We take this monitor for a spin using our usual range of tests to see whether it hits the sweet spot between image quality and performance.

This AOC monitor boasts a 27-inch display with a 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution. This means it can produce sharp and detailed images, and you can see every in-game detail clearly. The monitor also supports a wide range of colors, which makes the visuals vibrant and lifelike. Additionally, the monitor has wide viewing angles, allowing for consistent colors and contrast even when viewing the screen from different angles.Some users may wish to use the monitor at a lower resolution than the native 2560 x 1440 (WQHD). Either for performance reasons or because they’re using a device (such as a games console) that doesn’t support the full native resolution. The monitor provides scaling functionality via both DP and HDMI. It can be run at resolutions such as 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) at up to 120Hz and use an interpolation (scaling) process to fill the pixels of the screen up. If you’re connected via HDMI 2.0, the monitor also supports an upscaled 3840 x 2160 (‘4K’ UHD) signal at up to 60Hz. This will be useful if you’re using a games console which supports that resolution but not the native 2560 x 1440. To ensure the monitor rather than GPU is handling the scaling process, as a PC user, you need to ensure the GPU driver is correctly configured so that the GPU doesn’t take over the scaling process. For AMD users that are using this monitor, the driver is set up correctly by default to allow the monitor to interpolate where possible. Nvidia users should open Nvidia Control Panel and navigate to ‘Display – Adjust desktop size and position’. Ensure that ‘No Scaling’ is selected and ‘Perform scaling on:’ is set to ‘Display’ as shown in the following image.

If you are more of a casual gamer and plan to switch between using the monitor for work, gaming and TV streaming, there are more affordable options out there that may be better suited. But the AOC AGON AG273QZ offers a lot to serious gamers who want to enjoy super-smooth gaming at 1440p. The full capability of the monitor including the 144Hz refresh rate, Adaptive-Sync (includes AMD FreeSync 2) and HDR can be leveraged via DP 1.2+. HDMI 2.0 also supports these features, except for Adaptive-Sync on Nvidia GPUs (‘G-SYNC Compatible Mode). Standard accessories include a DP cable, HDMI cable and power cable, although this may vary between regions and retailers. The TN panel does mean that you’ll need to be sat head on to the display to get the right viewing angle, and the colour accuracy could sometimes be a little off. FreeSync Premium Pro is supported but there’s no Nvidia G-Sync and the Vesa Display HDR400 isn’t the best you can get either.Lastly, it is a cool gaming monitor with awesome image quality. The colors and details look really good because of the high contrast and wide color range. Plus, the resolution is 1440 p, which means the pictures are sharp and clear. HDR content gets a boost in peak luminance (up to ~450-nits), which in addition to the wide color gamut (10-bit color depth is supported for HDR) and high contrast ratio, provides a noticeable upgrade in image quality. for a monitor that sells itself on HDR, it turns out to be a much better gaming monitor with HDR disabled. It’s also worth noting that the AG237QCX features one of the heaviest, most rugged stands I’ve ever encountered. Once it’s in place, it’s downright hard to move unless you use the handle built into the top behind the monitor. It’s height adjustable with a 110mm of range and features a +/- 30-degrees of swivel for sharing your screen with a neighbor. AOC AGON 3 AG273QCX Gaming Monitor – Testing and Gaming At 144Hz, above, the UFO appears slightly narrower and more sharply focused. Obviously not as significant a difference as comparing 60Hz to 120Hz, but still an improvement. This reflects slightly lower perceived blur due to eye movement. The trailing behind the object is fairly similar to at 120Hz. Because the perceived blur due to eye movement is decreased (object is narrower) and the refresh rate itself has increased, the pixel response requirements for a ‘clean’ performance also increase slightly. The trailing is therefore slightly more extended, although the overall nature of the trailing is quite similar. Most users will appreciate the improved ‘connected feel’ (explored later) and the overall reduction in perceived blur at 144Hz regardless of this. The ‘Strong’ setting is again optimal, without strong overshoot for the transitions shown here and a slight reduction in trailing compared to weaker settings. The C27HG70 reference almost looks like another step up in overdrive over the AG273QCX, with a bit more of a reduction in trailing without any obvious overshoot being introduced for these transitions. The XG240R reference is very clean indeed, the envy of pretty much any other LCD on the market.
