PRESS RELEASE
Amsterdam, 3 March 2015 - Display specialist AOC is proud to announce its expanded presence as the official gaming monitor sponsor of Ireland's eSports tournament G-Series 2015. The tournament consists of three major events (G-Series 4, 5 & 6) and each event hosts some smaller sub-tournaments and side events which everyone can take part in. The official "kick off" will be on 21 March 2015 at the O'Callaghan Alexander Hotel in Dublin. Ensuring unadulterated fast-paced gaming action, AOC provides fourteen units of the 27″ (68.6 cm) E2752VQ, twelve units of the 24″ (61 cm) G2460PQU/BR and four units of the 27″ (68.6 cm) G2770PQU. With this commitment, AOC underlines its claim to establishing itself as the first choice in the gaming sector in Ireland and the UK. The display specialist currently offers a complete line-up of gaming monitors.
LAN event G-Series
As the official gaming monitor sponsor, AOC supports this year's G-Series that will feature three major tournaments and several smaller sub-tournaments. For the first time in Irish eSports history, the event offers a split based tournament. This means that there are going to be two preliminaries: spring (G-Series 4) and summer (G-Series 5). Between both tournaments, teams compete for points in order to qualify for the national championship (G-Series 6) at the end of 2015. In fact, splitting the event is supposed to bring the idea of this Irish tournament more closely in line with other professional gaming events around the world.
AOC's sponsorship of the G-Series 2015
According to Paul Butler, Regional Sales Director for AOC in the UK and Ireland (and recently nominated as one of the region's top 50 tech executives by a leading industry journal), AOC sees enormous potential for competitive gaming in the region. "With this in mind, we want to play our part in further supporting gaming competitions, promoting talents and sharpening the profile of AOC as a leading gaming specialist," says Paul Butler. He continues: "We are truly proud to be part of this popular event, standing by prominent players from all over Ireland and the UK and rooting for them."
A complete gaming line-up
AOC offers several cutting-edge models which expressly cater to gamers' needs. All in all, the display specialist provides thirty monitors for the G-Series 2015: fourteen units of the 27″ (68.6 cm) E2752VQ, twelve units of the 24″ (61 cm) G2460PQU/BR and four units of the 27″ (68.6 cm) G2770PQU.
• G2460PQU/BR: With a refresh rate of 144 Hz this monitor takes gaming performance to the max - at an affordable price. The model also comes with a sleek red trim design, which makes it a real eye-catcher.
• G2770PQU: Its 27 ″ (68.6 cm) TN panel make the G2770PQU to the largest monitor in the display expert's gaming portfolio. Furthermore, the model boasts the same excellent refresh rate and equally speedy response time as the model above.
• E2752VQ: AOC's multimedia all-rounder is a great addition to the models mentioned above. The fast response time of only 2 ms makes sure that even the most action-packed video games can be played without blurring. Gamers will also benefit from the 27 ″ (68.6 cm) display real estate.
All of these models will be present at this year's G-Series events. Furthermore, the display specialist will organise monitor sweepstakes at each tournament. AOC is looking forward to supporting the G-Series and working closely with the Geek Ireland team in helping to ensure the events to be a true success.
