This model also supports HDR mode that essentially transforms non-HDR content into HDR-like visuals via three different modes. It provides four different filtering modes – reading, web browsing, multimedia, and office.
G2490VX
This VA panel gaming monitor is packed with useful features like 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time and Adaptive Sync Anti-tearing technology. Consumers can now enjoy enhanced picture quality with Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution. It also supports HDR mode that essentially transforms non-HDR content into HDR-like visuals via three different modes. By enhancing RGBCMY color for more vivid images (via improved saturation and range), increasing dynamic contrast for clarity and image sharpness, the HDR mode ensures one can experience HDR visuals when viewing standard quality content. Additionally, this monitor comes with a 23.8” display with a VA panel.
The newly launched monitor also comes with 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time, which allows you to enjoy an ultra-smooth experience with no visible screen blur to ensure you’re always prepared to win.

AOC flicker-free technology uses a DC (Direct Current) backlight system to provide a more comfortable and healthier viewing experience, minimizing the effects of eye fatigue during work hours.
Some of the key features across the gaming monitors include:
FreeSync Technology
Screen tearing doesn’t only harm gaming performance, it also destroys immersion. AMD FreeSync technology provides the perfect high performance solution for gamers looking for the best gaming experience.
144Hz Refresh Rate and 1ms Response Time
With a 144Hz refresh rate (applicable for 24G2U/BK and G2490VX models) and 1ms response time (across all three models), the display will be equipped to perform at the pro gaming standard.
Flicker Free Technology
Flicker Free technology uses a smooth backlight system to prevent monitor flickering. This reduces eye strain and other damaging effects to your eyes – an especially valuable feature when working overtime, gaming for long hours or watching movies.
HDR Mode
The HDR Mode essentially transforms non-HDR content into HDR-like visuals via three different modes. By enhancing RGBCMY color for more vivid images, increasing dynamic contrast for clarity and image sharpness, the HDR mode ensures you can experience HDR visuals when viewing standard quality content.
HDMI Connectivity
It provides multiple options for connectivity, including a VGA connector, DisplayPort interface, and a HDMI port. HDMI compatibility unlocks a wider array of connectivity options for users, including gaming consoles, laptops, Blu-Ray players, and more. DisplayPort is the main PC-to-monitor connection format in the industry, with better refresh rates and the ability to transmit good quality audio in addition to visual data.
