AOC Launches Curved AGON HDR Gaming Monitor with AMD FreeSync2
AOC announces the first member of the premium AGON monitor line with HDR support, the AG322QC4 gaming monitor. This is a curved 32-inch, QHD HDR gaming monitor with a refresh rate of 144Hz, 4ms response time and FreeSync2 technology.
The monitor will have a Display HDR400 certification, the 32-inch monitor features a 2560 x 1440 QHD screen with a 1800R curve. The curved VA panel offers vibrant colors with high dynamic range for a more exciting and immersive visual experience to be enjoyed while gaming. The display also covers 85 percent of the NTSC. The AG322QC4's curve conforms to the way the eye sees and helps reduce eye fatigue.
The display features AMD FreeSync2 technology to provide a smooth, fast and visually stunning gaming experience, with support for HDR visuals. FreeSync2 synchronizes the display's refresh rates to the GPU in gamers' AMD-powered PCs to eliminate screen-tearing and minimize display stutter and input lag. This results in fluid and responsive gameplay, with objects appearing sharper, scenes appearing instantly and more vibrant in visual quality than on other monitors. AMD FreeSync2 delivers a smooth and fast gaming experience with a serious competitive edge.
The new AGON monitor also packs in additional AOC monitor technologies such as Shadow Control, AOC's FlickerFree technology and LowBlue Mode. With AOC's Shadow Control, gamers can adjust shadow levels in the on-screen display menu to increase contrast for better dark areas without affecting the rest of the screen. Eye comfort is one of the most important considerations for outlasting the competition, and since the AGON displays are designed specifically for the competitive gamer, they feature eye-protecting AOC Flicker-Free Technology to reduce eye strain, discomfort, and fatigue during long gaming sessions. The AG322QC4 goes even further with its Low Blue Light mode, reducing adverse short wavelength blue light without sacrificing color quality.
The AG322QC4 will be available for a price of $549.99.

fantastic.
the Agon's are butt ugly on the backside (disclosure...i own the g-sync version w/o HDR)
and...at this time no late model monitor can do HDR and free-sync at the same time.
one of the primary differences with free-sync 2 is HDR capability and that's only on the new models.
so, free-sync (1) is SDR, and free-sync 2 is HDR. both will be on the market at the same time and offer similar performance f.y.i.

With all these new freesync/2 monitors manufacturers almost never provide refreshrate ranges.
I'm also wondering who actually enjoys using curved monitors? Is there many people who purchased these or are these already there where "3d" screens are at the moment?
You get used to the curve real fast so i do not see it as a problem really other than on large TV's where it a hindrance since you won't always be sitting right in front of it all the time.

they are made...just prohibitively expensive as the HDR G-Sync module is $500 by itself.
i'm waiting for broader adoption of HDR to force Nvidia to contract out the module (for mass marketing) for my main system. the 27-29" freesync 2 size would go great in my office, plus they're "only" around $300

By made you mean in future? because right now the only GSYNC HDR monitor are Asus 27 inch
I like big monitors, not 65inch big thou
I would be the first to buy 40-45inch GSYNC HDR curved monitor if they make one, the lowest i can go is 35inch, maybe 32inch if thats the biggest they will make as in EVER no chance of getting bigger.
Ill be fine if NVIDIA adds VRR support for TVs, like on new Samsungs, if LG makes 2019 OLED that supports such feature and nvidia will support it, ill settle for new 55inch OLED TV

the VRR Samsung offers is Free-sync 2 (on HDR models, free-sync (1) on non HDR)
Nvidia's cards will look fine until the native refresh of the TV is exceeded, but you will get occasional tearing
there are new Very Large monitors coming out, but like everything electronic the first gen will be a rip-off
