AOC has partnered with Counter-Strike 2 to introduce the CS25G, a purpose-built competitive gaming monitor designed to deliver CS2-authorized performance and immersive features for esports players across the Middle East.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

AOC, a global leader in gaming monitors, has partnered with esports powerhouse Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) in a landmark collaboration that marks a pivotal moment in competitive gaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This strategic alliance introduces a specialised gaming monitor: the performance-focused CS25G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the first gaming monitor with official CS2-authorised features and optimisations, the display unites AOC\u2019s cutting-edge technology with CS2\u2019s thriving community of over 1 million active players since mid-February 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The monitor features CS2\u2019s official authorised design and exclusive built-in optimisation functions, providing players with unprecedented competitive advantages in a game where milliseconds determine victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Counter-Strike\u2019s evolution into CS2 represents a groundbreaking moment in gaming history, with millions of players worldwide and a thriving esports ecosystem,” said Carol Anne Dias, Director, Middle East and Africa for AOC Monitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Our collaboration brings together AOC\u2019s technical expertise and CS2\u2019s competitive legacy, resulting in the collab monitor \u2013 purpose-built tools that demonstrate our commitment to serving this passionate community.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featuring a comprehensive suite of game-specific optimisations, CS25G is the first purpose-built gaming monitor specifically for Counter-Strike 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At its core, the dedicated CS2 Mode automatically configures display settings essential for competitive play \u2013 brightness, contrast, colour and input lag settings \u2013 ensuring peak performance without manual tweaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The immersive CS2 Light Effects System transforms each match by synchronising RGB (Red, Green, Blue) lighting with key game moments, flashing during bomb plants and pulsing with explosions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Completing the experience, the user interface features a CS2-branded Boot Screen and a game-themed OSD (On-Screen Display, the menu system for adjusting monitor settings), creating an immersive competitive environment from start-up to shutdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Precision-engineered for esports, the monitors integrate powerful technologies to deliver a competitive edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Advanced MBR Sync Technology combines MPRT (Moving Picture Response Time) with Adaptive Sync, eliminating screen tearing and motion blur during fast-paced action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shadow Control and Dark Boost enhance visibility in dark areas, revealing hidden enemies and crucial details that might otherwise be missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sniper Scope feature completes this tactical arsenal, providing precision targeting capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CS25G showcases a 24.5-inch IPS panel, balancing competitive performance with visual brilliance \u2013 delivering a swift 300Hz refresh rate, overclockable to 310Hz and 0.5ms MPRT, while IPS technology ensures superior colour accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Complete with an ergonomic design, it offers a balanced combination of competitive performance and visual fidelity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CS25G monitor is available in the United Arab Emirates through Asbis Middle East and can also be purchased from E-City outlets across various malls in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
