The Game Mode section provides another way to select one of these presets, but also to configure further settings. We've seen this many times now and still haven't figured out exactly what it's for.Īs its name implies, the OSD Setup section primarily focuses on the appearance and positioning of the OSD, but it also includes control over DisplayPort level and a Break Reminder option to prompt you to spend some time away from the screen. Picture Boost is AOC's strange option to create a rectangular frame onscreen and apply different brightness and contrast settings to it compared to the rest of the panel.

You can demo the results, which splits the screen and shows the enhancement on the left. There are also DCB colour enhancement modes, with options for Full Enhance, Nature Skin, Green Field, Sky-blue and Auto Detect. There are presets for Warm, Normal, Cool, sRGB and User, with the latter enabling individual control of red, blue and green channels. Next along is Image Setup, but this is only available with an analog VGA input, so we'll move straight to Color Setup, which primarily gives you access to colour temperature controls. To access the other main menu options, the two buttons indicated with arrow icons are required.

There are three Gamma modes and a DCR dynamic contrast option that varies the backlight to increase the perceived contrast above what the panel can natively deliver at a uniform brightness level. The options include Text, Internet, Game, Movie, and Sports, alongside the default Standard option. This provides control over brightness and contrast, plus Eco Modes, which are an extra layer of presets aimed at typical usage scenarios. The fourth button calls up the main menu, which defaults to the luminance setting. The third button simply enables a crosshair, which will come in handy for FPS players. The next button along enables the Game Mode presets, which include Racing, RTS and FPS plus three user-configurable presets.

Pressing the first button from the left calls up an input list, so you can manually select which one to use. But the buttons along the bottom of the bezel are easy enough to access. We have to admit rather missing the separate control puck included with some premium gaming screens.
