Feature: Is the Agon AG353UCG the best ultrawide monitor yet?

AOC’s latest ultrawide monitor is a 200Hz Nvidia G-Sync Ultimate super screen

Katharine Castle • 9 months ago • 17

I love playing games on a good ultrawide monitor, and the AOC Agon AG353UCG is arguably the fanciest one that's ever crossed my desk. It's got all the bells and whistles you could possibly want: a curved 35in screen, a 3440x1440 resolution, a massive 200Hz refresh rate and full Nvidia G-Sync Ultimate support, which means it can do proper, high-end TV-grade HDR with a peak…

Feature: The BFG of gaming monitors

Nvidia BFGD: Everything we know about their Big Format Gaming Displays, including price, specs and release date

Katharine Castle • 2 years ago

Nvidia's BFGDs (or Big Format Gaming Displays, to you and me) are no longer going to be called BFGDs. Instead, as of January 2019, these massive 65in gaming displays are now part of Nvidia's wider G-Sync Ultimate family, which also includes their significantly smaller (but just as pricey) G-Sync HDR monitors such as the 27in Acer Predator X27 and Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ.Why the name…

CES 2019: Nvidia welcome select FreeSync monitors to the fold in new G-Sync overhaul

Katharine Castle • 2 years ago • 27

The arrival of the RTX 2060 wasn't the only trick Nvidia had up their sleeve at this year's CES conference, as they also announced a couple of interesting changes to their adaptive refresh rate G-Sync tech for gaming monitors. Chief among them was a new driver update for a select group of non-G-Sync screens that will effectively render them just as good as your official…
