At what point does the refresh rate of a gaming monitor reach diminishing returns, or otherwise become inconsequential? Never! That’s the message with displays like this, anyway.
At what point does the refresh rate of a gaming monitor reach diminishing returns, or otherwise become inconsequential? Ask any monitor maker and they’ll tell you, ‘Get out of here with such silly questions, gaming peasant!’. Okay, they probably wouldn’t be as crass in their answer, but the latest evidence that monitor makers have no intention of slowing down is AOC’s new Agon Pro AG276KF display.The AG276KF is a display with a 27-inch ‘Fast IPS’ panel sporting a 1920×1080 resolution and insanely quick 520Hz refresh rate. We checked the math (extensively) and that’s more than four times as high as 120Hz, over three times higher than 144Hz, and and more than twice as fast as 240Hz. Seriously, the numbers check out.Interestingly enough, the AG276KF is not the fastest monitor in AOC’s stable.
