AOC’s new 280Hz monitor will go for under £200

AOC has recently unveiled its latest gaming monitor, the AOC Gaming 27G2ZN3/BK, featuring a 27-inch Fast VA panel. For less than £200, you'll get a fast gaming display, offering 1080p resolution at up to 280Hz. 

Notably, the monitor's standout feature is its 280Hz refresh rate. It supports a native 1080p resolution with a 1ms GtG response time, 0.5ms MPRT and Adaptive-Sync technology to reduce visual tearing. AOC claims the Fast VA panel has a contrast ratio of 4000:1, 300 nits of brightness, and can cover 92.2% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut and 123.3% of the sRGB colour space.

Moreover, the 27G2ZN3/BK offers versatility with a 100x100mm VESA mount, allowing users to wall-mount the monitor or use a third-party stand. Still, the included stand is already quite decent, providing pivot (0° to 90°±2°), swivel (-30°±2° ~ 30°±2°), and tilt (-4°±1° to 21.5°±1.5°) adjustments, as well as a height adjustment of up to 130mm.

In addition to its flat display, the AOC Gaming 27G2ZN3/BK has a matte coating to minimise glare. It also has a 3.5mm audio connector, a DisplayPort 1.4, and two HDMI 2.0 connections. Priced at £189.99 in the UK and €239 in the Eurozone, the monitor comes with a three-year guarantee in both regions.
