SYDNEY, Australia - 29 September 2015 – AOC, a global-leader in display technology, has partnered with a powerhouse in the global entertainment industry – Twentieth Century Fox. With the company's first product placement in a major Hollywood film, AOC has become the official monitor partner of "The Martian",  the highly-anticipated sci-fi adventure from master director Ridley Scott, in cinemas globally starting September 30.

In line with the themes of "The Martian”, AOC supports the spirit of technological discovery and exploration. To celebrate the movie release, AOC has unveiled two new gaming monitors featuring cutting edge technology, the 24" AOC G2460PF and the 27" AOC 2770PF gaming displays.

Smooth visuals with reduced motion blur
Immersing in totally new, interactive worlds is part of the joy of gaming. But gamers need to enjoy it without distractions. When playing games with rapid movement, such as racing or first person shooter games, conventional 60Hz displays show distracting motion blur.

But not these displays. The AOC G2460PF and AOC 2770PF feature 144Hz Refresh Rates and 1ms Screen Response times, which ensures all movement is displayed clearly. Both displays also feature AMD FreeSync technology, which synchronises the GPU and the monitor. This removes tearing or stuttering. AMD FreeSync is an easily-implemented, affordable technology solution based on industry standards. It includes Gaming, Video and Power Saving modes.

Adjustment options for user convenience
For a more personalised viewer experience, both displays feature a 4-way adjustment stand. Users can change the monitor height by 130mm, swivel left and right, tilt the screen angle, and pivot 90 degrees.

The displays are also equipped with a SuperSpeed USB hub for USB 3.0 compatibility, useful for all kinds of gaming peripherals. The displays are also compatible with digital inputs such as HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort, DVI and MHL.

Healthy viewing with Flicker Free
AOC Flicker Free technology protects the eyes and reduces fatigue by using Direct Current (DC) dimming over the more common Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). In simpler terms, PWM turns the backlight on and off rapidly, while the rarer DC dimming method constantly powers the backlight to eliminate flicker. No flicker in the screen, healthier eyes.

Availability
The AOC G2460PF and AOC G2770PF displays are expected to be available in Australia starting from November 2015 through AOC partners. Kindly contact your local AOC distributor for more details.

About "The Martian"
During a manned mission to Mars, Astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon) is presumed dead after a fierce storm and left behind by his crew. But Watney has survived and finds himself stranded and alone on the hostile planet. With only meager supplies, he must draw upon his ingenuity, wit and spirit to subsist and find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive. Millions of miles away, NASA and a team of international scientists work tirelessly to bring “the Martian” home, while his crewmates concurrently plot a daring, if not impossible, rescue mission.  As these stories of incredible bravery unfold, the world comes together to root for Watney’s safe return. Based on a best-selling novel, and helmed by master director Ridley Scott, THE MARTIAN features a star-studded cast that includes Jessica Chastain, Kristen Wiig, Kate Mara, Michael Pena, Jeff Daniels, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Donald Glover. The Martian releases globally in cinemas starting September 30.
