AOC has added a new model to its AGON Pro series with the launch of the Q27G20SM, a high-end gaming monitor unveiled on the company’s official website in China. Pricing and release details are yet to be confirmed.
The AGON Pro Q27G20SM features a 27-inch Fast IPS display with a resolution of 2560×1440 pixels. It supports a 320Hz refresh rate and is built with a full-array Mini LED backlight that includes 1,152 individually controlled dimming zones. The monitor delivers a typical brightness of 600 nits in SDR, goes up to 700 nits in HDR, and peaks at 1,200 nits. It is certified with VESA DisplayHDR 1000.
With a 16:9 aspect ratio and 178-degree viewing angles, the monitor offers a 0.3ms MPRT and 1ms GtG response time, targeting fast-paced gaming needs. It supports Adaptive-Sync and AMD FreeSync for smoother visuals. The panel covers 99% Adobe RGB, 99% DCI-P3, and 100% sRGB color spaces and includes Quantum Dot technology. AOC has factory-calibrated the display with a Delta E < 1 rating and provides a six-axis color adjustment tool for more precise tuning.
Connectivity includes two HDMI 2.1 ports, two DisplayPort 1.4 inputs, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The display has slim 2mm bezels with a 5.9mm black border. The stand supports tilt, height adjustment, swivel, and pivot, and it includes a quick-release mechanism for VESA mounting.
The Q27G20SM comes with several gaming-specific features such as dynamic crosshair overlays, a sniper mode, dark field control, motion blur reduction, and game-specific color settings. It also supports picture-in-picture and picture-by-picture modes. Additional tools include flicker-free operation, low blue light options, customizable shortcut keys, and compatibility with AOC’s G-Menu software for display management.
AOC recently released a 260Hz IPS gaming monitor offering professional color accuracy at a lower price point, as well as the AGON Pro AGP327UZD, which features LG’s third-generation WOLED panel and DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification.
