The influx of gaming monitors sporting quantum dot organic light emitting-diode (QD-OLED) panels continues with the launch of Gigabyte's Aorus MO27U2, a 27-inch display with a respectable specs sheet. It may not necessarily rise to the "groundbreaking" status that Gigabyte pitches in its press release (more on that in...

We've been praising continued price drops on OLED displays for quite some time now, mostly in the TV arena but more recently in the realm of gaming monitors, too. Almost overnight (it felt that way, anyway), monitor makers began embracing OLED. Now we're starting to see an influx of newer quantum dot OLED (QD-OLED)...

Can you imagine splurging on a big and beautiful quantum dot OLED (QD-OLED) monitor, only to turn around and intentionally test its mettle against burn-in over a 12-month period? It's not something the average consumer should do, and fortunately there's no need to either, because it's already been done as part of an...

If you're ready to take in the plunge into OLED territory for your next gaming display, we have some great news—Amazon has slashed pricing on several models. Among the deals we found is an Alienware model with a QD-OLED panel that's been marked down a generous 28% (versus MSRP) to a new all-time low price, and it also...

It's not too often that monitor makers transparently list where they sourced the display panel for any given model, though there are exceptions from time to time. One such exception is GameMax with the introduction of its new Vision GMX32UCDM, a 31.5-inch gaming monitor that's built around a third generation Samsung...

AOC (the display maker, not the politician) is out with yet another gaming display, the Agon Pro AG326UD, which it claims "sets a new standard" in the realm of monitors. That amounts to some heavy marketing hyperbole, though we'll give the company a pass since it's fleshing out a suddenly expanding market of OLED...

Anyone can piece together a PC setup, whether it entails rolling your own rig (otherwise known as the DIY route) or going with a pre-built. The trickier part is matching parts and accessories to whatever theme you have going, be it copious RGB lighting, silent or quiet operation, an all-white (or mostly) aesthetic...

Regular readers probably think of Gigabyte primarily as a purveyor of motherboards and graphics cards. In the last few years, though, the component vendor has been positioning itself as a provider of premium PC display panels, and it has garnered itself a following among gamers for its reasonably-priced screens with...

Back at the Consumer Electronics Show at the beginning of the year, you may recall that MSI unveiled a monstrous 49-inch QD-OLED gaming monitor with a 5120x1440 resolution and 144Hz refresh rate. Well, more recently, MSI teased an upgraded variant with an even faster 240Hz refresh rate, the MPG 491CQPX, and that has...

It was really on a short time ago when OLED gaming monitors were relatively few and far between. You could still make that argument today, though the landscape is changing with a steady influx of options. One of those is AOC's new Agon Pro AG346UCD, a 34-inch monitor with a QD-OLED panel that the company is calling a...

Remember when Corsair was best known for its DRAM products, followed by gaming peripherals and cooling gear? It's expanded quite a bit since those early days, and its newest product announcement has nothing to do with RAM or gaming keyboards or CPU coolers, etc. Instead, it's a promising 34-inch monitor with a sleek...

The art department and marketing team for monitor maker AOC must have dipped into a case of Red Bull, because their superlative descriptors for the company's new Agon Pro AG276QZD2 "tournament gaming" display have the hallmarks of a caffeine binge (and hey, we can relate!). One of the images (shown above) has a chat...

The pixels output by your PC's graphics card are only as good as the monitor that displays them. Attach a shiny new GeForce RTX 3080 Ti to a bargain basement, slow 1080p panel with a refresh rate of 60Hz and you'll likely get what you had coming: blurring, color shift, dull images, and an unpleasant experience. We...
