Re: BenQ XL2730Z Firmware Update V002

Modern monitors now need to be easily user-upgradeable, much like iPhones and Androids are. Perhaps via utilizing the USB hub built into the monitor, as an easier method to upload a flash u...

Re: Buying new PC: Radeon VS NVIDA

Are there any relevant advantages of using NVIDA over AMD when it comes down to Blur Reduction and/or Lightboost in CS:GO? No. Go for the best price/performance that you can get. http://www.hardocp.com/article/2015/04/27/grand_theft_auto_v_single_gpu_performance_review_part_1/3 good resource for ho...

Re: BenQ announces 144hz 1440p FreeSync [XL2730Z]

It should be here today, i will be able to play around with it when i get home from work tonight.
