AOC has unveiled two groundbreaking 24.1in LCD gaming monitors for demanding esports players. Joining the high ranks of its lineup, the Agon Pro AG246FK6 and Agon Pro CS24A have all you need to be competitive, from class-leading refresh rates and latency to dedicated presets and image enhancements.
The Agon Pro AG246FK6 and Agon Pro CS24A combine the pinnacle of TN panel technology, offering an incredible 600Hz refresh rate that can be overclocked to 610Hz. This makes them the fastest of their kind, resting alongside the Philips 24M2N5200X and the Asus ROG Strix XG248Q5G-P monitors. The main difference between them is the look, where the Agon Pro CS24A trades the Agon Pro AG246FK6’s signature understated design for an exclusive Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) branding with distinctive accents that celebrate this iconic title.
Spec-wise, both are identical, offering elite refresh rates up to 610Hz and fast response times as low as 0.5ms GtG and 0.3ms MPRT. This combo should deliver clear and smooth visuals, eliminating motion blur and ghosting even during intense movements. Those wanting even more clarity can enable the MBR+ (Motion Blur Reduction Plus) technology on the monitors’ controls, leveraging an advanced dual backlight system said to deliver unprecedented motion clarity.
To hit their 610Hz refresh, both monitors are understandably using a FHD (1920×1080) resolution panel, with good but not outstanding specs. To be more specific, you get up to 500nits of brightness, 1000:1 contrast, and 99.8% sRGB plus 93.6% DCI-P3 colour gamut coverage. These are perfectly serviceable considering the task at hand, i.e. speed above all. You won’t have time to admire the colours or contrast anyway when clutching a CS2 round 1vs5.
Regarding the built-in OSD (On-Screen Display) toolkit, both get the usual shadow control for enhanced visibility in dark areas and crosshair overlays for improved accuracy, but the Agon Pro CS24A gets an extra feature. Made in collaboration with CS2, the Agon Pro CS24A includes a dedicated preset, fine-tuned to deliver the optimal visual experience for the game’s unique gameplay requirements.
Moving to connectivity, we find two HDMI 2.1, one DisplayPort 1.4, a headphone jack, plus a four-port USB 3.2 5Gb/s hub. The fully ergonomic stand is also identical on both models, offering 130mm height adjustment along with 28° swivel, 90° pivot, and from -5° to +23° tilt. A 100mm VESA mount is also present, as well as a headset holder to keep your gear within reach.
The Agon Pro AG246FK6 and Agon Pro CS24A will be available in August and September, respectively, starting at £599 MSRP and backed by a three-year warranty. Both will be showcased during IEM Cologne 2025 if you want to give them a try before buying.
