SINGAPORE -
Media OutReach - 10 February 2023 - AGON by AOC – one of the world's leading gaming monitor
1 and IT accessories brands – presents the new
G-Menu software suite for the management of all AGON by
AOC-branded peripherals – ranging from monitors to keyboards, mice,
headsets and mouse pads.
AGON by AOC's gaming portfolio, renowned for its award-winning monitors,
has been broadened over the last years with a variety of gaming mice,
mechanical gaming keyboards, mouse pads as well as gaming headsets. The
AOC gaming accessories have been praised for their durability, quality,
affordability, high-level specifications as well as RGB synchronisation
between devices for that little bit of extra flair.
This type of comprehensive gaming ecosystem with monitors and numerous
accessories necessitated a software with which to control and customise
all settings at once. For keyboards and mice, this means the
customisation of the keys and buttons, adjusting the sensitivity such as
repeat rate, polling rate or DPI level, for headset that means managing
the audio settings including the surround sound. Light FX settings and
the synchronisation of the lights for monitor, keyboard, mouse, mouse
pad, and headset can also be managed thanks to G-Menu.
Now, the G-Menu software enables the same set-up options as the
monitor's on-screen display settings with a single click. Monitors that
come with AOC's Light FX can be customised with RGB illumination, and
the newest update of G-Menu allows users to preview the RGB effects
first in the software before deploying it onto the devices (monitor,
keyboard etc). Furthermore, G-Menu allows colour and theme
synchronisation (Light FX Sync) between products, both monitor and
accessories such as gaming mice, mouse pads or keyboards will be having
the same RGB lighting pattern and same colours.
Today, gamers look up to their heroes and want to walk in their
footsteps. Peripherals thus are purchased based on the inspirations
provided by their favourite streamer or esports athlete. New user
profiles for different genres/games can be created, saved and even
shared with G-Menu. Inside the "Discover" section of the G-Menu
application, users can see the descriptions as well as compatible
products for a user profile, which they can then choose to copy to their
own devices. Matching the DPI settings of a gaming mouse or replicating
the colour and responsiveness settings of a monitor from one of the
idols of the gaming community... with G-Menu all it takes is a single
click.
The new G-Menu allows a great range of customisation:
- For mice and keyboards, there is large degree of freedom to assign
various functions to the buttons and keys. This enables users to assign
tasks such as opening a multimedia player and play/pausing the track, or
tasks related to internet browsers such as refreshing a page, opening
the home page, searching and more. Also, basic OS functions such as
cut/copy/paste or open/save documents can be assigned to keys or buttons
as well. This kind of high customisation can really be useful, whether
in games or in any day-to-day task.
- Macro management is equally crucial in certain games, where the action
happens so fast that the user needs to hit multiple keys/buttons
simultaneously. This is where the macros come into play. Even if the
game/application doesn't support it, thanks to G-Menu users can create
and manage macros – meaning that they are only enabled in a particular
game, for example.
