AOC jumps onto the bandwagon with their first curved gaming display
AOC has long been in the game when it comes to gaming monitors for PCs, but the Fremont, California-based company had been holding off on curved displays almost as if they weren't sure it would be a passing fad or not.
Yesterday, they broke their silence in a big way with the announcement of the C3583FQ, which seems to be their way of saying to go hard or go home.
The C3583FQ isn't just a curved display, but it's a monster of a gaming monitor, boasting a 35" display and a 144Hz refresh rate. While players have been wanting to get into the game with curved displays, widescreen monitors, and other features that make high end PC gaming that much better, AOC seem to want to give it all in one fell swoop.
