AOC G-series is a line of game monitors.
2021
CU34G3S, CQ32G3SU, C32G3AE и C27G3U
On July 27, 2021, AOC announced that it had changed the name of its game line. Now called AGON by AOC, it consists of three categories and covers all game-related products in the AOC portfolio - from game monitors to headsets, mechanical keyboards, mice, mats and much more for gamers of all levels.
According to the company, the brand will be premieres of the G3 series, which will go into the AOC GAMING category. Five displays in the G3 line received diagonals of 27 inches (68.6 cm), 32 (80 cm) and 34 inches (86.4 cm). All devices can have a curvature of 1000R, a refresh rate of 165 Hz, as well as a lack of frames on three sides. The line of curved G3 monitors will complement, but not replace, the G2 series.
The G3 series uses the curvature of 1000R in all models, due to which the monitor surrounds the user even more on the sides, compared to the curvature of 1500R in the G2 series devices. For first-person games, such as single-player games in the action genres, shooters, role-playing games, races and simulators. Games on displays with a curvature of 1000R completely cover peripheral vision and are similar to the experience of immersing in virtual reality right at the table, without negative aspects of a complete "disconnect" from the real world.
All G3 series models are equipped with 165 Hz VA panels. In addition, the motion blur reduction feature reduces response time to 1 ms (MPRT), so gamers will receive quick visual feedback without distracting artifacts, such as twofold images. Monitors are equipped with Adaptive-Sync support and offer gamers a smooth image without jerks. In addition, all models are characterized by a low input delay, so user actions can be seen on the screen almost instantly, without any noticeable delay in processing.
The G-Menu software allows gamers to adjust monitor settings with a simple click without touching the buttons on the monitor. In addition, Low Blue Light mode and FlickerFree technology protect eye health.
VA panels provide rich, bright colors with proper contrast and deep black, which is suitable for watching films or games with dark scenes, viewing angles are 178 °/178 °.
The AOC CU34G3S, designed for simulation and racing games, is equipped with a 34-inch VA panel with a 21:9 aspect ratio. Due to the sharpness of the resolution of the WQHD (3440x1440 pixels) in combination with the curvature of 1000R, the picture fills the user's peripheral vision and creates a feeling of complete immersion. Adjustable in height, level of rotation and inclination, the stand ensures ergonomic use during long game sessions, and two speakers with a power of 5 W provide proper sound.
For shooters, actions, role-playing games and other genres, two more 31.5-inch and two 27-inch G3 series monitors are also suitable, each of which is presented with Full HD and QHD resolution options.
The AOC CQ32G3SU 31.5-inch monitor and the 27-inch CQ27G3SU are equipped with QHD resolution panels (2560x1440 pixels), which provide greater clarity and sharpness with a more common 16:9 aspect ratio. The sturdy support does not take up much space on the table and is equipped with a cable hole, which simplifies installation. It is also adjustable in height, inclination and rotation angles to give the device an ergonomically correct position for long play sessions. The 31.5-inch model is equipped with two 5W speakers, and the 27-inch version is equipped with two 3W speakers.
The remaining two monitors in the G3 series are the 31.5-inch C32G3AE and the 27-inch C27G3U, both with full HD resolution (1920x1080 pixels). Depending on your games and hardware, full HD resolution can be the best choice. For some gamers, speed is much more important, and achieving the right frame rate at QHD resolution and above is a difficult task for low- and medium-sized PCs. The 165 Hz refresh rate and MPRT response time of 1 ms, as well as the lack of leaps in games thanks to Adaptive-Sync technology, make these models available. The larger 31.5-inch C32G3AE comes with a base stand with a tilt support and two 5W speakers, and the 27-inch C27G3U comes with an ergonomic height-adjustable stand and two 3W speakers.
The first models in the G3 series - AOC CU34G3S, CQ32G3SU and C32G3AE - have already appeared on sale at the recommended retail price of 60,419 rubles, 39,959 rubles and 31,059 rubles, respectively. Sales of two other models - CQ27G3SU and C27G3U - will begin in September 2021 at a price of 35,509 rubles and 29,279 rubles, respectively.
