I bought the AOC 24G2SPU monitor and just got it yesterday.The experience so far is amazing but I have a few unanswered questions and hope to find them here, because even though the internet is a massive place, I still haven't figured out: Note that these images are designed to show strobe crosstalk behaviour and don’t accurately show how distinct details on the main object appear. Another gripe is that the picture area does not extend to the bezel - you can clearly see the pixelised area of the screen stops with about 5mm of un-pixelised screen to spare before the inside edge of the bezel. I have no idea why this was done, it kind of defeats the object of the exercise of having minimalist bezels. Perhaps its so they can market it as 27 inch when in fact it is slightly less. Perhaps they just bung a cheaper screen on an existing 27 inch bezel production line to save costs. It just looks a bit odd with the pc running - my older 24 inch 1080 Acer monitor has minimalist bezels with the pixelised screen extending right up to the bezel. Gamut not wide enough for work with extended colour spaces, ‘sRGB’ mode very restrictive, colour consistency and viewing angles not up there with the best IPS offerings
AOC’s last 24 inch, high refresh rate IPS monitor went down a treat as one of the best selling monitors on the market, so its replacement has a lot to love up to. This is the AOC 24G2SPU, and its main upgrade is a new and improved 165Hz refresh rate, from its new IPS panel. Is this still the king of the hill, is this worth your money? Let’s test it and see shall we?Whilst Nvidia doesn’t have a similar option in their graphics driver, a third party tool called ‘novideo_srgb’ can be used. This provides a similarly effective GPU-side gamut clamp to the AMD driver option. The resulting gamut was very similar to that shown above with the AMD tweak – this is expected given it uses the same data from the EDID of the monitor. The tool and its usage is covered in our sRGB emulation article. Well-priced with decent build quality for a budget offering, good ergonomic flexibility and decent range of OSD adjustments A fairly effective LBL setting, with the blue channel now weakened significantly and a corresponding reduction in blue light output. The image appears warm and somewhat green, though our eyes adjusted to an extent over time. Moderate ‘IPS glow’ (perhaps a touch lower than average), fairly high minimum luminance and no HDR support
Though white point is slightly lower than factory defaults and blue light output is marginally reduced, this does not have the effect that a Low Blue Light (LBL) setting should. What’s most frustrating about this is that if AOC were more honest about the response time, I’d actually have a lot less of an issue with this. Sure this isn’t lightning fast, but it isn’t all that bad. Yes it could definitely be better, and it’s not exactly your next pro esports display, but for the average gamer especially at this kind of budget I wouldn’t feel the need to complain too much. A look at the UFO test confirms the average performance, with between 3 and 4 ghosted frames on screen depending on the overdrive mode. The UFO does get relatively well rendered on most frames though so again while it’s not perfect, it’s good enough.Information of the number of pixels in a unit of length. With the decrease of the display size and the increase of its resolution, the pixel density increases.
Great Deal
