AOC launches its biggest Agon monitor yet

Unfortunately, most ultrawide gaming monitors with a display size of over 38 inches are curved. Although there's a market for these, some people just prefer their displays flat. That's where the AOC Agon AG405UXC comes in, featuring a 40-inch flat ultrawide display with a 144Hz refresh rate.

The AG405UXC features a 40-inch flat ultrawide IPS panel with a resolution of 3440×1440. The 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time (MPRT) ensure smooth and responsive gameplay. The monitor is VESA DisplayHDR400-certified, meaning peak brightness should at least reach 400 nits. As for the contrast ratio, it's rated at 1200:1. These specifications allow the display to cover 100% of the sRGB colour gamut and 94% of the DCI-P3 space.

The AG405UXC's size and ultra-wide 21:9 aspect ratio offer a distinct advantage for some gamers. The additional screen real estate allows gamers to have a wider field of view and allows them to access multiple menus simultaneously without cluttering the screen.

The AG405UXC also supports AOC's intuitive G-Menu software, enabling easy customisation of monitor settings, including colour, overdrive, and gaming-specific features like Shadow Control, Low Blue Mode, PiP, PbP, Dial Point, and Frame Counter. It also offers settings for low input lag, ensuring rapid and responsive gameplay, as well as Adaptive-Sync (AMD FreeSync Premium) support for tear-free and stutter-free gaming.

Moreover, the monitor comes with a versatile stand that allows a wide range of tilt, swivel, and 150mm height adjustment. Additional features include a USB-C port with 90W power delivery, support for HDMI and DisplayPort, a USB hub for convenient peripheral connectivity, and two 5W built-in speakers. The AG405UXC will be available starting in June for £569.99.
