Power supply and consumption Information about the power supply and consumption, energy efficiency class, etc. 110V Approximate height of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the height is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. The issue is, with USB set to "auto" in the settings, it maps the USB B+ USB A connector to ALL DVI and HDMI displays while USB C apparently will not be auto-mapped. This means that the AUTO setting is functionally useless. You can set it manually to USB C, but this means you'll need to do this every time you switch which device you're using. Another constant niggle I had was when switching display inputs, as it takes a painfully long time to switch, often in excess of 12 seconds. I also had issues with the AG493UCX2 not switching on automatically with an HDMI source. It can take over 20 seconds to activate the screen from standby (compared to 1 to 3 seconds with most other AOC panels), which makes it frustrating when it doesn’t turn on at all, as you have to wait just in case it’s dragging its heels.

According to the documentation this machine can support One display with 5120-by-2880 resolution at 60Hz at over a billion colors (see here - https://support.apple.com/kb/SP795?locale=en_US) The monitor has a power switch and integrated KVM functionality, it comes with a remote controller, and one of the USB downstream inputs supports fast charging.

Width This provides you with plenty of horizontal screen space that’s especially useful for audio/video editing and productivity work. Moreover, you get an extended field of viewing in compatible video games for a more immersive gaming experience!On mac, I'm still testing/tinkering but I'm unable to close my laptop display and use single screen @ 5120x1440 working. It works when the lid is open with the screen on, but as soon as i close the screen it goes dark. I'll update if i figure it out. In the Standard Eco mode with Game Mode turned off, we engaged the User color temp and made slight changes to the RGB sliders. Gamma was left on the first preset, which is a tad dark at an average value of 2.3. The other two options washed out the picture, so we avoided them.

The timing of this review was fortuitous as we had just finished our evaluation of the 43-inch gaming display. Another interesting feature, which is hidden in the ‘Eco Mode’ along with some other presets (Movie, Game, Sports, etc.) is the Uniformity Mode – it improves brightness and color temperature uniformity across the screen at a cost of overall picture brightness and contrast ratio.There are various panel technologies. Each has its own specific features - viewing angles, color reproduction, response time, brightness/contrast, production cost, etc. The image quality depends directly on the type of the display panel used. Information of the number of pixels in a unit of length. With the decrease of the display size and the increase of its resolution, the pixel density increases. The AOC AG493UCX2 also supports Picture by Picture, which along with the integrated KVM functionality allows you to connect two PC to the screen, display them side by side, and use a single set of keyboard/mouse to control both PCs. This monitor spec says it only support the higher 5120x1440@60Hz res using DisplayPort and cable has to support 8K which the one out of the box does. Given the issues I had with HDMI-connected consoles, I’d have preferred they kept two DisplayPorts and two HDMIs, though in reality users are more likely to have additional devices with HDMI outputs rather than a second desktop with DP.

That last one needs a bit of elaborating on: I have my setup configured to have my personal machine on DVI 1 and my work machine on DVI 2. My personal machine has a USB C port (no display over it) while my work computer does not. So I hooked up the standard USB A connector to my work machine and the USB C one to my personal machine. There’s a good variety of ports on the AG493UCX2: There are 3x HDMI 2.0, 1x DisplayPort 1.4 and 1x USB-C for connecting your displays (USB-C supports the display signal and up to 65W power delivery, as well as supporting KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) if you have your peripherals connected to the display).A pixel response time of 1ms means speed without the smear for an enhanced experience. Fast-moving action and dramatic transitions will be rendered smoothly without the effects of ghosting.

The static contrast shows the ratio between the brightest and the darkest color, which the display can reproduce simultaneously, for example, within one and the same frame/scene. Major forces are joining in the world, with heroes carrying the AGON banner. Heroes in the real PC gaming scene are the hard-core, competitive gamers as well as streamers/content creators. They combine their individual talents and teamwork to get to the top of the competition and showcase what one can accomplish with the right equipment. For these heroes, the AGON (“competition”/”contest” in Ancient Greek) series is surely the fitting companion they need.In addition to the refresh rate limitations, the bit depth is also restricted for everything but DisplayPort connections. This is a 10bit panel (8bit+FRC), but that bit depth is only available at 60Hz via HDMI, and USB-C only supports 8bit colour. I can multi-task with this monitor -- using it as two separate 27 monitors, or by using multiple windows. Windowed gaming is very easy, with more than enough space for OBX controls, and chat, on either side of the Gaming window (center). To make the OSD adjustments or select various games modes and gaming-specific features, users can either use the on-board buttons, the included remote control, or the AOC G-Menu software. Approximate width of the display. If the manufacturer does not provide such information, the width is calculated from the diagonal and the aspect ratio. Of course, you can get a much better HDR gaming monitor at this price range, but the AOC AG493UCX2 focuses on other things.
