AOC G2770PQU vs Planar Helium PCT2785

With a response time of just 1ms, the AOC G2770PQU is one of the fastest monitors on the market. Ideal for fast-paced gaming situations such as first person shooters.

You can use 27 inch screen size of the monitor and adjust it accordingly. The monitor features built-in options to change the monitor view and switch between nine different screen sizes and aspect ratios.

This display features a very fast refresh rate of 144Hz (144 times per second). This allows for extremely fluent gameplay and is a major improvement over regular 60Hz displays.

The black levels are respectively low at 0.16cd/m², which helps the contrast ratio achieve 1100:1 which is much lower than the advertised 5000:1, but still quite good.

The response time is 12ms, which isn't lightning fast, but it's still quick enough to make the system feel more responsive than cheaper monitors. While not fast enough for high-level gaming, this monitor won't make your system feel slow or unresponsive.

It really does look like a massive tablet with a kickstand - but that's not a bad thing. There's no stand visible, leaving the front looking very clean. The stand can angle anywhere from 15-70 degrees which allows for flexible use, or it can be folded in and used flat on the desk or even mounted using the VESA mounting holes.

This monitor has many peripherals built-in, and unless you use them heavily they will do the job just fine. Unless you feel the need for dedicated hardware, the built-in stereo speakers work well enough, and the webcam and mic are acceptable quality for occasional recreational use (for business calls or other uses where quality is important, you'll want to upgrade to dedicated hardware).
