MagyarOLED not needed: AOC launches Agon AG251FZ2 TN monitor with 240 Hz refresh rate and 0.5 ms response times
OLED may be all the rage for smartphones and gaming laptops, but that doesn't mean existing TN or IPS technologies haven't been getting better. AOC has just announced the 24.5-inch Agon AG251FZ2 and 27-inch Agon AG271FZ2 monitors each sporting native 240 Hz refresh rates and exceedingly fast 0.5 ms response times for extremely smooth motion and almost no ghosting.
For professional gaming purposes, fast refresh rates and response times are typically favored over color accuracy, resolution, or gamut. Gaming laptops that offer 4K OLED options like the Razer Blade 15, Alienware m15, or Gigabyte Aero 15 offer a native refresh rate of only 60 Hz that would be less fit for serious gaming even though its response times are comparable to the new Agon monitors.
Other features include AMD FreeSync, blue light filtering, a 400-nit backlight, and a pair of integrated 3 W stereo speakers. Note that PCs must support DisplayPort 1.2 or HDMI 2.0 or better in order to run at both the native 1080p resolution and 240 Hz refresh rate of the monitor.
The 24.5-inch Agon AG251FZ2 and 27-inch Agon AG271FZ2 is now available for pre-order on Amazon for $330 and $380, respectively.

Fremont, CA – July 2, 2019 – Today AOC, a worldwide leader in monitor display technology, announced two new exciting gaming monitors that it has added to its AGON line of professional gaming monitors. The new 27-inch AG271FZ2 and the 24.5-inch AG251FZ2 are both LCD monitors with AMD FreeSync technology featuring 240Hz refresh rate and a 0.5ms response time.
The new monitors feature the fastest refresh rate on the market at 240Hz, which brings unprecedented fluidity for every movement on the screen. Gamers can elevate their game with every detail brought sharply into focus with crystal clarity. The 0.5ms response time pairs fast-moving action and dramatic transitions with a super smooth experience without smearing or ghosting.
AMD FreeSync technology delivers the highest frame rate and smoothest display possible without screen tearing or lag whether you’re dashing through explosions or screeching around rain-slicked bends – leaving your opponents in the dust.
AOC has packed its new monitors with AOC technologies, including Shadow Control and Lowblue Light Mode. With Shadow Control, gamers can bring the battle out of the shadows by adjusting the levels to increase contrast for better dark areas without affecting the rest of the screen. The monitors also feature eye protecting Lowblue Light Mode, which protects gamers from harmful blue light which has been shown to cause eye strain, headaches, and sleeping disorders during long sessions. Lowblue Light Mode reduces the harmful wavelengths emitted without sacrificing color composition.
The AG251FZ2 and AG271FZ2 are both available for pre-order on Amazon now for $329.99 and $379.99, respectively.
