Now, the colors are still not as good as they are on IPS or VA panel displays, but they are noticeably richer in comparison to the older TN panels. The design of the AOC G2590FX monitor is clearly aimed at gamers with its red accents, which, thankfully, aren’t too aggressive.

You will also find ‘Low Input Lag,’ which further decreases input lag by bypassing certain image processing. Lastly, there are four Overdrive options for the response time speed: Off, Weak, Medium, and Strong. Well, as expected the 144Hz makes your gaming experience smooth and the input lag is minimal at around 3-4ms depending on the testing methods. The monitor also boasts a 1ms response time, but as with every other monitor tested so far this is an exaggeration. The AOCAOC G2590FX 144Hz gaming monitor is based on a newer 24.5″ TN panelmade by AU Optronics, as opposed to the older 23.6″-24″ TN models.

The weight of this monitor is around 4.20Kg that’s feels lightweight and easy to move, and the dimensions are ‎21.9 x 7.06 x 16.52 inches.

What such alternatives can’t do is nail the gaming experience like this screen. The G2590PX G2 has a really nice combination of gaming features, including 144Hz refresh, frame syncing and fast response, at a reasonable price. TheAOC G2590FX variable refresh rate range is 30-144Hz/FPS which is surprisingly good as on most FreeSync gaming monitors, the VRR range is usually 40-144Hz or 48-144Hz. In games, however, it’s a totally different story. The relatively low resolution enables your graphics card to pump out many more frames per second and in turn make the most of that 144Hz refresh. The only way to truly get a 1ms response time is to crank up the overdrive on the monitor to the maximum which leads to ghosting and halos, effectively making everything blurry and resulting in an unplayable experience. In other words, the frame rate between the GPU and the refresh rate of the display will be synchronized, thus removing screen tearing and stuttering but without introducing input lag like VSYNCdoes.

A monitor like the AOC G2590PX G2 is easy to rule out for most PC users. It makes too many compromises in areas like size, resolution and static panel quality. You can get bigger, sharper, better looking monitors for the money. The Adaptive-Sync range on the AOC G2590FX is 30-144Hz/FPS, which means that if you are anywhere in that range the image on your screen will still be tear-free. Obviously, for the best experience, you will want to ensure that your PC can maintain a stable 144Hz/FPS. The response time speed of 1ms is another aspect hardcore gamers will appreciate. In fast-paced games such as first-person shooters and racing games, there’s minimal motion blur and ghosting behind fast-moving objects.
