![]() ![]() ![]() In some regions such as North America this is silver matte plastic rather than the black matte plastic shown in the image (unless ‘/BK’ is included at the end of the model code). The stand base has an interesting design, with 2 longer front legs and 2 short rear legs. We found these well-blended overall and not eye-catching when just using the monitor normally, less eye-catching than they appear in press photos. Matte black plastics are used extensively, broken up by some dark metallic red plastic elements. The monitor adopts a homely style, with only a subtle hint of ‘gaming monitor’ look. Some of the key ‘talking points’ for this monitor have been highlighted in blue below, for your reading convenience. As usual, take such response times with a pinch of salt. A 1ms MPRT (Moving Picture Response Time) is specified, with the monitor using its strobe backlight setting. This supports a 144Hz refresh rate and 8-bit colour. More specifically, it’s based around a Panda FFS (Fringe-Field Switching) IPS-type CELL* with a custom backlight solution. We test all of these features out and assess the performance of the monitor more generally, using out usual suite of ‘real-world’ tests. But some notable changes aside from just panel type include a more generous colour gamut and the use of a flat rather than curved screen. It isn’t designed to replace the C24G1, comparing IPS and VA panel types is a bit of an apples to oranges comparison. The AOC 24G2U (referred to as 24G2U/BK or 24G2/BK due to black plastic, or simply 24G2 in some regions) offers an alternative with IPS-type panel. The AOC C24G1 is a good example of a VA model that offered a nice mixture of image quality and responsiveness. So far the high refresh rate options have centred around either TN models, built for speed, or VA models offering strong contrast and some improvements in colour handling at the expense of responsiveness. Many gamers are comfortable with a screen size of around 24” and are seeking an affordable solution with a good mixture of image quality and responsiveness. ![]()
