AOC has just unveiled two new ultrawide gaming monitors, bolstering its budget-friendly AOC Gaming range with more 34-inch options. Introducing the CU34G4CA and CU34G4ZCA models, offering up to 180Hz and 250Hz refresh rates, respectively. They’ll be available this August starting from £289.99 and £329.99 in the UK – two very attractive price points.

Recently, we’ve seen AOC continue to push its premium AGON range, including the launch of the AGON 7 in China, but these two AOC Gaming models aim to offer excellent value for money. On top of that, they’re not solely designed for gaming, as the extra screen real estate, 90W USB-C support and KVM switches make them an ideal choice for productivity, too.

Press release in full

Amsterdam, 16 July 2026 – AGON by AOC, the world’s leading gaming monitor brand, expands its 34-inch (86.36 cm) curved G4 ultrawide range with two new models: the AOC GAMING CU34G4CA at 180 Hz, and the AOC GAMING CU34G4ZCA at 240 Hz (overclockable to 250 Hz). Designed to transition seamlessly between gaming and work, both models combine high-refresh-rate performance with productivity-focused features such as 90 W USB-C Power Delivery and an integrated KVM switch, making them equally suited for immersive gameplay and hybrid work setups.

The ultrawide format
Both models utilise a 1500R curved Fast VA panel featuring WQHD resolution (3440 x 1440), providing a wider field of view compared to traditional 16:9 displays. This format offers specific advantages across various workflows and gaming genres:

• Expanded field of view: The 21:9 ultrawide aspect ratio enhances immersion in racing and flight simulators by expanding the player’s peripheral view, while strategy and MOBA players benefit from additional on-screen space for improved battlefield awareness.
• Cinematic visuals: With DisplayHDR 400 certification and a peak brightness of 450 nits, both displays deliver the contrast and depth required for lifelike imagery in expansive open-world titles.
• Workspace consolidation: For professional tasks, the 21:9 ultrawide format offers the convenience of a dual-monitor-style workflow on a single display, providing ample space to view documents, spreadsheets, timelines and multiple applications side-by-side without the interruption of a centre bezel.

Two tiers of high-velocity speed: The G4 ultrawide lineup offers two distinct tiers of performance to match any competitive level, both delivering ultra-low response times of up to 1 ms GtG.

• CU34G4CA (180 Hz): Built for smooth, high-refresh immersion at an accessible price point, this model features a 180 Hz refresh rate and 0.5 ms MPRT to ensure fluid motion clarity during fast-paced gameplay. Connectivity includes 2x HDMI 2.0 and 1x DisplayPort 1.4, making it a natural fit for racing simulators, story-driven single-player titles, and daily tasks.
• CU34G4ZCA (250 Hz OC): For gamers requiring maximum headroom, this model steps up to a native 240 Hz refresh rate, overclockable to 250 Hz, with a blistering 0.3 ms MPRT to virtually eliminate motion blur. Paired with 2x HDMI 2.1 and 1x DisplayPort 1.4, it delivers the high bandwidth required for top-tier graphics cards and elite competitive play.

The integrated professional hub: 90 W USB-C and KVM
To support modern hybrid work, AGON by AOC has integrated professional-grade connectivity usually found in business monitors into these high-performance gaming displays:

• One-cable solution: The 90 W USB-C connection delivers video and data while simultaneously powering a laptop, significantly reducing cable complexity.
• Hardware-based KVM and integrated USB hub: An integrated KVM switch allows users to control two separate systems – such as a work laptop and a gaming desktop – with a single keyboard and mouse. This makes it easy to switch between devices without unplugging and reconnecting gaming gear. The integrated USB hub, featuring 2× USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, keeps headsets, external drives and other accessories within easy reach while reducing cable clutter.
• Ready-to-use connectivity: Both models include a complete cable bundle for easy setup, featuring a 1.5 m USB-C to USB-C (Gen 2) cable in the box, along with a 1.8 m HDMI cable and a 1.8 m DisplayPort cable.

Sustained performance: Visual comfort and ergonomic precision
Both the CU34G4CA and CU34G4ZCA are engineered to support users through the physical demands of high-intensity gaming and full working days by prioritising posture and long-term visual health.

• Professional-grade ergonomics: Both models feature an ergonomic stand with 130 mm of height adjustment, as well as tilt (-3.5° to 21.5°) and swivel (-20° to +20°) adjustment. This flexibility is critical for reducing neck and back fatigue during marathon gaming brackets or extended professional sessions.
• Eye comfort features: Both models incorporate Flicker-Free technology and Low Blue Mode to help reduce eye strain during extended usage, while maintaining the visual clarity and responsiveness of the Fast VA panel.
• Tactical software and Adaptive-Sync: Both displays support AOC’s G-Menu software, allowing users to adjust on-screen settings and switch between gaming presets through a streamlined desktop interface. To maintain fluid motion, Adaptive-Sync technology eliminates screen tearing and stuttering by synchronising the monitor’s refresh rate with the GPU’s output.

“The 1500R curve and 21:9 canvas are made for the games where immersion matters most, from sims to sprawling open worlds. What is new here is that we have added 90 W USB-C, so the same screen that pulls you into a race can power a work laptop the next morning. You get an immersive, fast gaming monitor first, and a genuinely capable workspace on top”

César Acosta, Senior Gaming Product Manager at AGON by AOC
