On the occasion of the visualization Week SID 2022 AU Optronics (or AUO) just gave us a glimpse into its upcoming products with the first demonstration of its upcoming display panels, including a 24-inch desktop monitor and an ultra-wide laptop panel with a refresh rate of 480 Hznew AmLED (adaptive mini LED) panel for laptops and laptop display with integrated cameras.

So it is surprising that we have found ourselves earlier for all of them some TN panels, nowadays have disappeared more in high-end screens in pursuit of other technologies such as IPS or high refresh rate VA. Although that doesn’t mean AU Optronics can leave us speechless by offering us some response time approximately 1 ms, with Full HD resolution and a refresh rate of up to 480 Hz.

And this is because although these are not the first screens to reach this number, the fact that these numbers are achieved below 1080 pixels is a milestone, in fact it is the first monitor in the world to do so.

However, this does not mean that there are no longer games that are already optimized for these very high frame rates. These panels, which are mainly focused on the eSports scene, are presented as a really interesting option titles like Valorant and CS: GO, in which it is possible to achieve more than 500 fps at 1080p with the right GPU and CPU and where each snapshot can be a huge competitive advantage. Although they are undoubtedly interesting for lovers of driving simulators such as Gran Turismo 7 or Asseto Corsa.

Although they did not want to mention from AU Optronics when it would be expected that it would be possible to see the official announcement and availability of the first products to use these screens on the market, some media say it is already planning to enter the market. in production this year.
