AOC vs Acer
These are the differences that I've noticed (if this site for comparing monitors is to be trusted, because official sites don't have super detailed specs):
|
AOC |
Acer |
| Brightness |
300 cd/m² |
250 cd/m² |
| Dynamic contrast |
80.000.000 : 1 |
100.000.000 : 1 |
| HDR |
/ |
HDR10 |
| Minimum response time (I assume GTG) |
4 ms |
2 ms |
| Whatever this other respons time is |
Response time - 1 ms (MPRT - Motion Picture Response Time) |
Response time - 1 ms (VRB - Virtual Response Boost) |
| Power consumption (average) |
22W |
25W |
| Connectivity |
2 x HDMI 1.4, 1 x DisplayPort 1.2 ,1 x D-sub, 1 x 3.5 mm Audio In ,1 x 3.5 mm Audio Out |
2 x HDMI 2.0, 1 x DisplayPort 1.2, 1 x 3.5 mm Audio Out |
It also seems like Acer is 144Hz natively but it's overclockable to 165Hz, while AOC is natively 165Hz, but I'm not sure because it's not very clearly stated.
Acer is a bit pricier, but are those differences worth it?
How good is HDR? Is it worth it, or is it just whatever?
The AOC only has last-gen HDMI. That alone would probably push me to the Acer. I don't recommend OCing monitors, personally.
