Thanks for the video! May I ask how it behaves if fed with non-native resolutions, such as 1280x720@240Hz? Does it work, and if so, is it possible to disable scaling of the image so there will be black borders around the image instead?

[@TotallydubbedHD]

Thanks, not sure, you're best asking AOC about this, but if you're on PC you shouldn't have an issue with scaling it to a lower resolution. Although, not sure why you'd do this?

[@GustavNilsson]

@@TotallydubbedHD Thanks for the answer! I will do that. The reason I am asking is pretty specific; I want to avoid any latency adding operations (including scaling) while working on a project. I will use a card where I will not be able to transfer 240fps at 1080p so I will have to pick a lower resolution. Thanks again!

[@TotallydubbedHD]

@@GustavNilsson got it; then you should be able to - but worth checking with AOC :)

I want to use a monitor for gaming both CS:GO with a gaming laptop with GTX 1660Ti (casually tho) but also combine with PS4 gaming like RDR 2 and other casual single player games. How is this monitor considering downscaling from 240 to 60Hz as well as the dark lvl smearing many VA panels have in this price range? Always game at night or in dark room so this is no issue for me. Hoping for an answer as i am having real trouble finding a perfect mix considering the boxes i wish ticket - Continue the great vids!

[@gabrielcordula904]

Hey there! So, I got this thing on my mind and I can`t get into a final conclusion. I recently bought a C27G2ZE (known in Brazil as AOC Legend 27", the ZE it's the cheaper version of the C27G2ZU) and, of course, only did it because I saw your review after I noticed the same problem, the strange "motion blur" that don't let me connect some shots (on CSGO, my main game) that were 'working' on my old 60hz monitor (this 'motion blur' is this kinda bad guys, seriously). I turned the MBR setting on (played with it on off [0] by the 2 first days, than setted to 12, the maximium I can get and see alright), it get a lot better, but idk if it's enough, never had a 144 or higher hertz monitor before, so i'm really lost if i'm having at least a 'ok' experience. I'm thinking on returning it and get the AOC 24G2Z (also know as AOC HERO Z here in Brazil, didn't found the ZE or the ZU on the 24G2 version) with IPS and 240hz aswell, or the Asus VG279Q1R, with 27", IPS and 144 hz instead, or even the 27G2, with 27", 144hz and it's IPS, not VA as my actual one. Well, it still, by far, a better overall experience than the 60 hz, but this thought of not experiencing a true and complete 144+ hz experience is killing me! What would u suggest? Return it and get one of the other options (saddly they don't have everything that the C27G2ZE offers [27", curved and 240hz], and to get everything in other monitor, it will be beyond my budget, or the MBR on 12 it's enought and I'm having a true experience, but just freeking out a lil bit with this issue? Know it's probably a bit too long to make that question here, but worth a try!

[@TotallydubbedHD]

This is a really long and not a really clear question - sorry. But, in short, check the description for my suggestions; and I saw you commented on my Best Gaming Monitor roundup - that should give you everything you need in terms of suggestions too; ultimately I wouldn't recommend this monitor and I'm not too sure why you bought it after my review lol.

Hi! So I have a question. I've watched the whole video and by your statement this monitor has made me have a great opinion on it. Since my birthday is near Christmas, my parents have let me get a 240hz monitor. However, I have a 300ish€ budget. Would you recommend this monitor with my conditions or should I go to other options? I will mainly use it for competitive gaming like fortnite, rocket league and csgo and also some editing. Thanks!

[@TotallydubbedHD]

As per my video, I don't really understand why someone would opt for this 240Hz. Yes it's cheap vs the competitors, but as someone who plays/played top-tier CS MM, I'd get a 1440p 144Hz instead, or even save yourself a lot more money and just get something like the AOC 24G2U a 144hz 1080p IPS. For 300 Euros, you can probably get the Acer Nitro VG270UP / VG271UP (144hz, IPS, 1440p) especially on a deal.

​@@TotallydubbedHD Thanks for fast reply. Anyway I bought this monitor, and it's a blast for me. I sold my old AOC C24G1, and this is definitely an upgrade worth 100 euros. (I mean that's the difference paid after selling C24G1). I like your review. It made me choose this over 27G2U. I was sceptical about IPS panels for high refresh rate FPS gaming, and it's 1 year older than C27G2ZU. I didn't have the chance to see it with my own eyes, since these models are not available in my city. I liked C24G1 VA panel, and that was one of the reasons I chose C27G2ZU. P.S. Sorry for long reply. I hope this can help someone in my skin :D

Hello, i watched your video and right now im playing on Samsung 65" Q65Q80T TV but i would like to buy 32" 240hz monitor only for CSGO, valorant and fortnite, do you think this monitor in 32" size will be more responsive and have better input lag and less motion blur/ghosting than Q80T in those 3 games ? im playing those games 4:3 streched on that TV while sitting probably 60 cm away from it so pixel density is no problem for me on full hd 32 :D 27" monitors are way too small for me so i need atleast 32". Thank you for review and if you could try to respond to my question than i would very appreciate it :)

[@TotallydubbedHD]

If you've watched my video, I take it you'll know my answer. Can't comment about your TV, but it's likely that a modern monitor will outperform it in terms of response time and input lag.

[@etch3d]

Does this one have the same classic aoc crosshair built in ?

[@achrafaboudreis668]

I’m on Amazon and I’m looking at the same monitor, it says “usb hub 240hz” and it’s slightly cheaper than just the normal “240hz” but what is the difference, will I still be able to run 240fps with a hdmi cable with the “usb hub 240hz” monitor ?

[@TotallydubbedHD]

Lol, no idea about the other model - probably is just a built-in USB hub.

@@benredert8982 tearing is to do with FreeSync/G-Sync, think you're getting confused between the terminologies and what to expect. With overdrive on, you'll usually get more ghosting (but it's suggested to a certain degree to better the response time of the monitor). If you are a casual gamer, I'd suggest FreeSync or Gysnc in order to get smooth gameplay, at the expense of slower response time, as often overdrive will get disabled.

@@TotallydubbedHD so too higher the response time when I’m playing competitive since most games I play I do it on semi high competitive level.
