AOC - Q3279VWFD8 31.5" LED QHD FreeSync Monitor - White And Silver

I purchased 2 of these right at the start of the 2020 lockdown as I needed something bigger/nicer for full time remote work. These Monitors fit the bill magnificently! I was firmly in the "1080p resolution is all I need" camp because I very much disliked the High DPI issues caused by 4k screens and I already wear glasses - so I figured the 1440p/2k resolution of these monitors at the 32" size would be a nice upgrade. Boy was I right! I LOVE all the extra screen real estate I have now! I now "complain" about my work laptop's 1080p screen and heaven forbid I have to use an older 720p screen I have as backup. I've gamed some on this and since my GPU is from AMD it makes use of the FreeSync technology to smooth out everything up to 75hz - which is fine for me (I've been told that this is a low hz rating but... for my needs its perfect). If I had any gripes at all it would be these 3 items: > No built in speaker for Basic Audio (although this is mitigated with a 3.5" audio out jack that I make use of) > Non-adjustable monitor stand (but at the price I purchased these this was to be expected - and well placed books are doing the job at the moment) > Non-standard VESA mount - this one is the most annoying as I've had to purchase these mounts for a future adjustable monitor-mount purchase None of these items are worth removing a star because at the end of the day these monitors exceed my needs.

For the price I paid around 170$ I think, cant beat the quality for that price. No dead pixels, had to mess with the color setting a little bit to my preference but other that very easy to set up. The monitor is a little bit heavier then expected, and doesn't come with a remote. For under 200$ its a good deal for a 1440p monitor. Would reccomend.

First of all, you have to realize--if you're used to a normal 21-23" monitor, this one will appear huge! For me that's a good thing, but still, I didn't realize exactly how big it was until it was sitting on my desk. But this is exactly what I wanted. It's huge, the resolution is great, it's bright. All in all, I really like it. A few good details: I like the fact that it has a higher resolution than a typical 1920 monitor. I can put so much more spreadsheet info on the screen at once. Even google calendar, in month view, is much better-it shows everything on it. My only nit-pic: I wish it had a height adjustment. I use this in a 2-monitor setup. The bottom of the monitor is about 4 inches above my desk, but because the monitor is so big, it is really much higher than my other monitor, so I kinda end up looking up at it. But no real complaints. I was surprised that I found a monitor this big, with this high a resolution, for this price. Very good deal.

This monitor is great. Its an IPS panel, gsync compatible, and has 10 bit color (technically 8 bit + FRC). Its really sharp and crisp. The monitor does have draw backs- 75hz refresh rate and it is not 4k. For serious gaming setups there are alot better choices out there, but you will easily pay double the price. The 31" also has advantages and disadvantages.. at 2k it will have lower pixel density then a 27" monitor, however its big enough to where you wont need a second monitor to do work\school stuff.

For that price, this deal can't be beat! I am pretty "tech-ˌsavvy" and *almost never* have to refer to documentation to get anything to work. This monitor was almost an exception to that. On initial set up, one of the monitors had nasty green lines running on parts of the screen starting where dark areas of a video appeared and continued to the left from that point. My first though was return it even if I manage to get it corrected. I honestly though it was a problem with the monitor. My RTX 2080 was pushing two of these monitors at max res and an Oculus and this was the only device that was having problems. The first step in trouble-shooting was to switch the connection between the two monitors. The problem switched to the other monitor. I can't remember the exact set up I was using now but I was running out of HDMI connection on my card so I was using an adapter-maybe DVI to HDMI or VGA-so I switched that out with a different adapter to the HDMI input on the monitor. Worked perfectly... As it turns out, the manual clearly states that the max resolution of VGA is only 1920x1080 and I had it set up for 2560x1440. Totally my fault. Even though I bought them at only $169 on sale, I would have no problem buying these at full price after seeing them work.

I admit it, I like to get BB deal of the Day items and this was one of them. I will leave the reader to go view the specs. I feel the screen is sharp, no dead pixels and believe came with a 3yr warranty. I did already have a 32” panel on my desk though honestly after having that one for about 9 months had forgotten it too was a 32” panel...though it does not have as high a resolution as this one. Bottom line - If you have the space and it is on sale grab it. If you never thought you would use a 32” panel...you would love it. Many of use came from the 17, 19, 21, 24” sized panels and now 32” can become the sweet spot I offer. I am older thus the other 32” panel with the lower resolution ratio is helpful but to see a lot of real estate in a 32” this higher ratio model its the mark. Norte, it tilts only does not rise.

I can't stress enough how much larger the screen is and since my eye sight has been getting worse and worse over recent years, this monitor has been a lifesaver!... Even tho not 4k (this one is 2k), it seems a very nice monitor and was bought at a fantastic price-point.

Great monitor, awesome size and waiting for next price break to get another one. spreadsheets and documents are clear and crisp. Can even get two side by side windows and easily work between the two.
