AOC Agon Pro AGP257FT hits 1,000Hz, overclocks to 1,050Hz, launches next year
AOC introduced the AGP257FT monitor earlier this year.

AOC has introduced the AGP257FT gaming monitor, which officially supports a record-setting 1,000Hz refresh rate. Despite most gamers not having the necessary GPU power to maintain such a high rate, this Taiwanese manufacturer is pushing the limits even further. The 25-inch Full HD IPS monitor is expected to launch next year and will be priced higher than AOC's usual offerings.
With its 0.1ms response time and Motion Blur Reduction Plus technology, the AGP257FT aims to deliver smooth visuals even during fast-paced gaming sessions. The monitor also features built-in VESA DisplayHDR 400 certification for improved contrast and brightness levels. It is G-Sync Compatible, ensuring compatibility with Nvidia GPUs and reducing issues like stuttering and screen tearing.
Additional features include two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 2.1 port, USB 3.2 connectivity, and an audio output. The TÜV Rheinland-certified Circular Polarization technology minimizes glare and eye fatigue, while the hardware-based Low Blue Light solution reduces potentially harmful blue-light emissions.
The AGP257FT is positioned as a high-performance solution for professional esports competitions and gamers seeking the best possible visual experience. However, it remains to be seen if games with optimized frame rates and graphics engines truly take advantage of such an extreme refresh rate. Most popular titles are unlikely to benefit significantly from a 1,000Hz display, making the AGP257FT a monitor that few gamers will be able to fully utilize for the foreseeable future.
