This AOC looks nice if priced right. Probably compares well to a Asus VG248QE.
if you follow the thread on oc.net you will see pretty much every one has done 120hz+ for the last 18 months from some sellers.
Yawn.
Btw those same threads on OC.net talk about Korean IPS monitor led driver boards breaking down,blown leds/components/mosfets. Replacement boards costing $30+.
yea man, i know. but even if i have to replace that every 2 years it will still cost me under £300 total for the screen in the next 6 years. which i think is worth the extra image quality over a £200 1080 screen.
by that time i am hoping everybody will be 4k anyway :D
Ill take better color representation and contrast, and overall better image quality than a faster refresh rate any day of the week.
Can you read the street names in this test?

On my 60 Hz IPS it's impossible. On my 120 Hz with lightboost, easily readable.
This monitor though, is very late to the party. Why would anyone purchase this for $399? Probably uses the exact same panel as the Asus and BenQ ones too.
I guess the marketing damaged my eyes.

I guess they also like spending more than they need too on graphics card solutions to take advantage of higher refresh rates, because fps under 120fps on a 120hz screen looks just as bad as having under 60fps on a 60hz screen
I don't get where under 60fps looks bad at 60Hz and under 120fps looks bad at 120Hz. In my testing 80 fps looks like 80 fps on both, but doesn't have screen tearing at 120Hz.
Got sources that running under refresh rate looks bad?
