The new AOC AGON G493UCX packs a VA panel and boasts the native 5120 x 1440 resolution with a super-smooth 120Hz refresh rate, it also includes DisplayPort 400 support. It won't matter which GPU you're using, as AOC is including AMD FreeSync technology and G-Sync compatibility with the new AGON G493UCX monitor.

AOC squeezes in 2 x DisplayPort 1.4 connectors, 2 x HDMI 2.0 connectors, 1 x USB Type-C, 3 x USB ports, 1 x audio output, and 2 x built-in 5W speakers. There's no pricing on the AOC AGON G493UCX at the time of writing -- and that's what I'll be waiting for. It shouldn't have flagship ASUS pricing, but with a huge 49-inch panel at 5120 x 1440 @ 120Hz isn't not going to be cheap, either.
