Riding on the wave of eSports that is taking the planet by storm, AOC the Taiwan based display and monitor maker who predominantly have their screens used by gamers, is launching a new brand name for its gaming series of products. The name AGON will be adopted for all new and future releases including re-branding some of the existing gaming displays.

The name derives from an ancient Greek word (ἀγών), which refers to “a struggle or contest” reflecting the conflicts the gamers often go through battling endless hours of Zombies, Warlords and enemies on their monitor screens.

In Asia, AOC has been the main organizer of two Southeast Asian AOC Masters Championship (AMC) Dota 2 tournaments. Part of AOC’s partnerships involve directly supplying monitors, including the Na’Vi-endorsed AOC G2460PQU 144Hz gaming monitor, for gamers to use in professional competition.
