The AG276FK joins the AGON monitor family with an ultra-high refresh rate for truly premium gaming
Designed to win tournaments
AGON PRO AG276FK presents the most modern Fast IPS panel that provides Full HD (1920×1080) resolution. With a remarkable 520Hz refresh rate and a fast response time of up to 0.5ms GtG and 0.3ms MPRT, the AG276FK ensures crystal-clear movement and minimal input lag – essential features for professional esports players competing at the highest level. The Full HD resolution is designed to allow competitive gamers to achieve and maintain the very high frame rates required to fully utilize the 520Hz refresh rate with current generation GPUs.
For competitive gamers, especially in fast-paced FPS titles like Counter-Strike 2 or Valorant, the AG276FK monitor’s 520Hz refresh rate means one frame is displayed every 1.92 milliseconds. This unprecedented level of visual feedback allows players to track moving targets with exceptional clarity and make micro-adjustments that can mean the difference between victory and defeat.
The monitor’s Fast IPS panel technology combines speed with exceptional image quality, featuring peak brightness of 400 nits and DisplayHDR 400 certification. This ensures that while speed remains paramount, visual clarity is not compromised. Adaptive-Sync technology eliminates screen tearing and stuttering, providing the smooth experience that competitive gaming demands.
„The AG276FK represents another milestone in our range for competitive gaming,” says César Acosta, Gaming Product Manager at AGON by AOC. “By introducing this 520Hz display alongside our AG246FK and AG256FS models, we offer esports professionals and enthusiasts a full range of ultra-high refresh rate options with different sizes, speeds and panel types to suit their specific competition needs.“
Advanced gaming features for professional use
The AG276FK monitor is equipped with a set of features important for gaming. These include several pre-calibrated game modes optimized for different genres, ensuring players can quickly switch between ideal settings for different titles. The built-in Frame Counter and Shadow Control functions allow gamers to monitor their performance and fine-tune the visual experience, while the redesigned OSD menu system provides quick access to important game functions.
Building on AGON’s esports heritage, the AG276FK monitor features the latest iteration of Motion Blur Reduction (MBR) and MBR Sync technologies, which can be activated to further enhance motion clarity in competitive scenarios. MBR Sync technology combines the clarity of strobing backlight technology with variable refresh rate support to offer sharp, jerk-free movement. The monitor is also equipped with Low Input Lag mode, which bypasses unnecessary image processing and ensures the fastest possible response to player reactions.
Versatility meets excellent competitiveness
The 27-inch AG276FK Fast IPS panel offers the perfect balance between competitive performance and versatile everyday use. While its ultra-high refresh rate and fast response time are perfectly suited to competitive esports-level gaming, the larger screen size (compared to the 24-25-inch standard) and excellent IPS color reproduction make it equally suitable for content creation, media consumption and casual gaming. This versatility sets it apart from traditional esports monitors and makes it the ideal choice for serious gamers who require a monitor that excels both in and out of competition.
Understanding the demands of esports-level gaming, the AG276FK monitor features a highly adjustable stand with 130mm height adjustment, as well as tilt, swivel and swivel capabilities, and a low-profile, slim stand base – essential for maintaining an optimal position during intense competitions. Comprehensive connectivity options include two HDMI 2.0 ports, two DisplayPort 1.4 ports and a USB hub with four USB 3.2 ports, ensuring seamless integration with professional gaming setups.
