When two companies come together seamlessly to design a premium product at a premium price, it has to offer consumers the performance to match and AOC’s new partnership with Porsche Design has managed to craft an ultra-high-performance gaming monitor that deserves your attention and maybe even your adoration.
The stunning 27-inch VA 1000R curved panel offering a 16:9 aspect ratio is equipped with a QHD+ display and a 240 Hz refresh rate resulting in a 0.5ms response time effectively eliminating smearing and motion blur, delivering sharper and more precise visuals to enhance your gaming experience.
The frameless display and brushed metal finish are inspired by the cage of the Porsche 911 RSR and it looks fantastic and the screen itself is flanked by two powerful 5-watt speakers and sits on a brilliant ergonomic stand that can tilt, swivel, and is height adjustable. These elements combined with the unique curved design provides an immersive experience like none other we have seen.
The visual experience is further aided through AMD FreeSync Premium Pro with DisplayHDR400 technology that delivers a true HDR gaming experience: a combination of smooth gaming at peak performance, and exceptional high dynamic range visuals while still maintaining low latency. This paired with considerable low input lag reduces the time between entering a command and the picture changing, which is particularly important to those playing fast-paced, competitive games.
We have also come to appreciate some welcome additions to this brilliant set up including multiple connectivity options including 2x HDMI 2.0, microphone, 4xUSB 3.2, headphone jack, and a changing light bar located at the rear of the monitor that adds some welcome ambient light in darker environments. Lastly, the CNC aluminum plated in chrome Wireless Quick Switch keypad allows you to set custom display resolutions depending on the type of game you are playing, as well as accessing normal display settings to customize to best suit your needs.
After using the monitor for the past few months, the minimalist design and state of the art tech found within has completely revolutionized our PC gaming experience and has been a joy to use in day-to-day operations and work from home applications as well. The screen is bright, vibrant, and sharp and is very immersive no matter what you set out to achieve, and for these reasons, it has become our go-to option when recommending display options to our readers!
