Your next gaming monitor or laptop could feature a 480Hz display from AUO
AUO briefly showed off its 480Hz panels at SID Display Week 2022. The company has two 480Hz displays in the works, a 24-inch model for desktop monitors and a 16-inch model for laptops. Both displays have response times of under 1 ms and have FHD (1920 x 1080) resolution. ComputerBase first spotted the panels (via Tom’s Hardware). We don’t have a full spec list, a release date, or pricing information for any devices that will feature AUO’s new panels.
You may not have heard of AUO, but you’ve likely seen their displays. Many of the best gaming monitors and best gaming laptops have AUO panels. Acer’s new Predator X32 monitor uses AUO’s AmLED technology, and several well-known companies such as ASUS and MSI frequently use AUO panels.
Some people will debate if a 480Hz panel is discernable from a 360Hz panel or even from slower ones. Regardless of how many frames the human eye can see in a second, AUO’s displays will be among the fastest on the market. Enthusiasts that want to get the most out of the best PC games may want to look AUO’s way to future-proof their setups.
