AOC has quietly launched a new 27-inch gaming monitor in China that blends speed, color accuracy, and affordability into a compelling package. Listed on JD.com for 1,299 yuan (around $180), the new Q27G4Z pushes its Fast IPS panel beyond the standard with an overclocked 260Hz refresh rate (native 240Hz), making it one of the fastest 2K monitors in its price range.
AOC Q27G4Z Monitor Specifications
The Q27G4Z is built around a 2560×1440 resolution Fast IPS display, sourced from Innolux, and tuned for both fluid gaming and accurate color work. It offers a snappy 1ms GtG response time and supports Adaptive-Sync across both AMD and Nvidia platforms. That means smoother gameplay with virtually no tearing or stuttering, regardless of the GPU powering your rig. The panel is factory-calibrated with an average Delta E <2, which should appeal to content creators as much as competitive gamers.
HDR support comes in the form of VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification. AOC claims a peak brightness of 450 nits in HDR mode and 350 nits in SDR, with full 10-bit color support via 8-bit + FRC. The monitor covers 97% of the DCI-P3 color gamut and 119% of sRGB, offering over 1 billion colors and respectable vibrancy for video editing or grading. All units are individually calibrated at the factory.
AOC has also brought in its MBR Sync motion blur reduction engine, which improves clarity in high-speed motion and pairs with Dark Boost, an automatic brightness adjustment tool for enhancing visibility in low-light game scenes. There are also GameColor and GameMode presets for tweaking performance by genre, and a dynamic crosshair feature for FPS games.
Physically, the Q27G4Z supports tilt, swivel, pivot, and height adjustment up to 130mm. It’s also TÜV-certified for low blue light and flicker-free DC dimming, reducing eye fatigue during long gaming or work sessions. On the connectivity front, it includes two HDMI 2.0 ports, one DisplayPort 1.4, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The build is VESA mount compatible and ships in eco-conscious packaging.
