Z series on Newegg - v2?
Looking to order the 2720Z, does anyone know if the current stock on Newegg is indeed v2?

Re: Z series on Newegg - v2?
FYI Newegg customer service wasn't able to confirm whether the monitor is v1 or v2. They do not track revisions apparently.
Really wanting to pull the trigger on this - has anyone recently ordered any Z series monitors from Newegg??

Re: Z series on Newegg - v2?
I think NewEgg is now shipping V2, but I have heard mixed reports.
A NewEgg customer review for the XL2411Z mentions it is a Version 2 firmware.
It is up to you, but if you wish, you can also support the operation of Blur Busters by ordering with V2-preinstalled through these links:
BENQ XL2411Z on Amazon or BENQ.com
BENQ XL2420Z on Amazon or BENQ.com
BENQ XL2720Z on Amazon or BENQ.com
(Coupon GAMER$20 reduces the BENQ.com price by twenty dollars.)

Unfortunately I had a lot of store credit at Newegg I needed to use before it expired.
I ordered the monitor yesterday and will report on the version once I receive it early this coming week.
Fingers crossed.

Please let all of us know if it's indeed V2 firmware as I think it is.
It's nice to get more NewEgg confirmations. Know a lot love NewEgg and want to make sure that store is safe, too!

Re: Z series on Newegg - v2?
I should have the monitor later this evening. What's the easiest way to check if it's v2, try to install the blur busters strobe utility?
Thanks

I ordered mine from Newegg on 4/22. Unfortunately I received v1. Spent the money for the MStar ISP and upgraded it to v2 myself. I cannot speak for the version that might be shipping currently.

The new NewEgg customer review says V2, so they may have changed over very recently.SUOrange55 wrote:Bummer. How much was the MStar?
You will want to wait until you receive your monitor first, to verify it's V2.
