AOC AG271UG
The AG271UG offers super quick panel response with 4ms and while the OSD is lacking many features that you normally see in high-end gaming monitors, it is clear and simple to navigate. I can safely recommend this monitor to casual gamers who are looking for the ultimate gaming experience. I'm a casual gamer so having a high refresh rate is not that important to me but if you are into fast-paced games such as CS:GO or DOOM, then the AG271UG might not be the monitor for you since it can only do 60Hz at 4K. Price-wise, the AG271UG is definitely not a cheap monitor, but it comes with plenty of high-end features such as a 4K IPS panel, G-Sync, amazing color accuracy and a high build quality.

Great overall image quality defines this display, thanks to its IPS panel, 4K resolutoin and G-Sync. It’s not one for competitve gamers but is ideal for graphically rich single-player worlds.

The biggest issue for the AGON AG271UG isn't anything to do with the monitor itself, more about the issues involved in trying to get gaming at the 3840 x 2160 native resolution of the panel in question. 4K itself is the problem; you need a huge amount...

The AOC Agon AG271UG is an excellent 4K gaming specimen, even if gamers are now looking forward to 144Hz UHD displays and HDR. Still, if you are seeking to upgrade to a G-Sync equipped display in this flavor, we can still recommend this model especially since it includes a slightly more affordable price in the USA.

Despite its limitations for serious gamers, the AOC AG271UG is a fantastic monitor for casual gamers who are looking to play in 4K. To be amazed by the level of detail that 4K has to offer you’ll need an appropriate graphics card, but if you’re after a screen that offers Nvidia’s G-Sync, a relatively fast response time and accurate colours, then the AG271UG should be the first monitor on your list.

G-Sync monitors still can't be considered affordable when the entry-level option starts at $350. However, these prices already considerably dropped from their original SRPs, making them easier to own now. It's also worth noting that when you dissect the...

As we said at the start, G-Sync doesn't come cheap. A 27” 4K IPS panel that caps out at 60Hz can be found for less than £350 (even with FreeSync support), but the asking price here is £600, although it sometimes dips below £550, and the primary reason...

Qualitativ muss sich der AG271UG wirklich nicht verstecken, denn hier wurde viel Wert auf eine hochwertige Haptik gelegt. Der Standfuß, so wie der Trägerarm wurden aus Metall gefertigt und haben keinerlei scharfen Kanten und alles schmiegt sich...

Der Gaming-Monitor AOC Agon AG271UG ist kein Favorit für Geschwindigkeits-Freaks unter den Gamern. Dafür reicht die maximale Bildrate von 60 Hertz nicht aus. Der 27-Zöller besticht vielmehr durch seine sehr gute...

Unter dem Strich bekommt ihr mit dem AG271UG ein 4K-Display, das das Zeug dazu hat, viele Gamer preiswert auf eine neue Stufe zu heben. Aufgrund der genannten 60Hz Problematik wird er trotzdem nicht in die Gefilde der obersten Gamer-Riege hervordringen....
