So guys, what is the current state of the monitor?

I heard a lot of people have it completely functioning, with overdrive+144hz+freesync.

Also, what is the purpose of overdrive?

So I got this monitor yesterday and for some reason when I put the refresh rate at 144hz there's constant flickering that will not go away. Any ideas as to what is causing this and how I resolve it? I'm running it through an RX 470 with the latest Crimson drivers.

Hey smarf I get the same! so don't worry. Its a problem with non Freesync monitors which brings me to the reason I'm here. I'm running a 480 @ 144hz via DP lead. Freesync is not working. How do I get it to work? I've turned it on in the drivers.

Ahh its working now in BF4 but not BF3. Weird.

I am still getting the constantly flicker on desktop though. But I get the same with my benq

FIXED: New AMD update fixed flicker

the desktop flickering is a freesync driver bug please see here:

The lastest drive 16.9.1 totally fixed all my flickering issues on both freesync and non freesync monitors at 144hz!

16.9.1 fixes desktop flicker, but i still have in game flicker and in game corruption is now back again.

Sencha · 11 Sep 2016 at 16:38

Weird. 144hz only still?

Mine is flawless now on the 480

henson0115 · 11 Sep 2016 at 20:42

turns out i was correct, after sorting out an rma, received an on site exchange. no matter how hard i try the new one does not have the same display corruption with freesync enabled. i would suggest anybody having to put up with this display corruption contact aoc for an exchange.

After reading this topic it sounds that you guys do not suggest buying AOC G2460PF.

Happy with my Viewsonic xg2401 if you're looking for a comparable alternative.

I bought one knowing that some people have problems and I really like it.

The lowest brightness is way too bright but other than that it's all good. I had an Asus but the colours did not look natural at all (could have been faulty I guess) so I replaced it with this and have been happy with it.

hi
were are the links ?

Mickcas · 11 Sep 2017 at 13:19

I've got his monitor also. Out of the box I didnt like it at all. But there a ICC profile to can download, this link is in this thread somewhere and the colours are much better, the a quick tweek of the contrast and a good drop in brightness and it's all good.
