AOC AGON PRO AGP257FT monitor hits 1,000Hz native refresh rate

AOC announces the AGON PRO AGP257FT, a 24.5- inch esports monitor with a native 1,000Hz refresh rate and 0.3ms response time.

Serious competitive gamers now have a display option that pushes refresh rates beyond the standard 360Hz ceiling. The AOC AGON PRO AGP257FT sets a new benchmark for motion clarity by offering a native 1,000Hz refresh rate. This speed reduces the time between frames to just one millisecond. Gamers who prioritize reaction time and visual smoothness will find this specification particularly relevant.

AOC AGON PRO AGP257FT monitor specifications and connectivity details

AOC describes the AGON PRO AGP257FT as the fastest monitor in its current lineup. The device targets the high-end esports market with a focus on raw speed rather than visual fidelity. It utilizes a 24.5-inch oxide-based Fast IPS panel to deliver its performance. The screen runs at a standard 1920 x 1080p resolution to support these extreme frame rates.

Specifications

Panel: 24.5-inch oxide-based Fast IPS
Resolution: 1920 x 1080p
Refresh Rate: 1,000Hz native, 1,050Hz overclock
Response Time: 0.3ms GtG, 0.1ms MPRT
Connectivity: 2x HDMI 2.1, 1x DisplayPort 2.1

The monitor pushes its capabilities further by allowing users to overclock the refresh rate to 1,050Hz. This overclocking reduces the refresh interval to approximately 0.95 milliseconds. AOC advertises a minimum gray-to-gray response time of 0.3ms for the panel. The display also lists a separate 0.1ms MPRT rating to address motion blur concerns.

Connectivity options include two HDMI 2.1 ports and one DisplayPort 2.1 input. The package adds three USB-A ports for peripheral connections. The monitor supports NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible technology to minimize screen tearing. It also carries VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification with 20-zone local dimming for improved contrast.

We previously covered the AOC Q25G11SE6, which offered a more modest 360Hz refresh rate. The new AGP257FT represents a significant jump in performance specifications for the brand. This model is designed for users who demand the highest possible frame delivery speeds. The device ships as a specialized tool for competitive play rather than general multimedia use.
