Image quality is not as expected.

Check the display resolution and refresh rate settings in your operating system and the monitor's OSD menu. Make sure the resolution is set to 2560 x 1440 and the refresh rate to 180Hz (if supported by your hardware and game). Adjust the brightness, contrast, and other picture settings in the OSD menu to optimize the image quality. If you are using AdaptiveSync, ensure it's enabled in the OSD menu and in your graphics card settings.

AdaptiveSync is not working.

Ensure AdaptiveSync is enabled in the monitor's OSD menu. Check that your graphics card drivers are up to date and that AdaptiveSync is enabled in the graphics card control panel. Make sure that the game or application you are running supports AdaptiveSync.

This may be caused by the monitor's internal components. If the sound is too loud or persistent, contact AOC support for assistance.
