Re: BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

BENQ have recalled all screens to the factory because there are problems with colors on some batches. That's why it is hard / impossible to find one in stores right now. They told me they are working on a fix for the problem and hope to have the screens back in store soon. Acer has now also official...

Re: BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

Some reviews from people who own the monitor can be found here: http://www.overclock.net/t/1566153/benq-xr3501-35-144hz-curved-ultrawide-owners-club And Hexus has a nice review for this monitor now: http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/monitors/85469-benq-xr3501/ They mention a 22.3 ms value for input late...

Re: BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

Ok, so I have bought and evaluated the screen. Here is my opinion so far (most important points): - The screen is designed specifically for racing games, and therefore not suitable for normal desktop use (you miss too much vertical resolution as this is only 2560x1080 instead of 2560x1600). - You ca...

Re: BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

Asus has also announced a 34 inch curved wide-screen display! http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/news_archive/33.htm#asus_34_curved This one offers 3440x1440 resolution with G-sync, but only at max. 75 Hz. I guess Displayport bandwidth is indeed the limiting factor, and everyone has to choose between resol...

Re: BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

This LCD probably will have an artificially capped refresh rate, which makes it a dumb buy. Pretty much all 144Hz LCDs could probably run at 160Hz-180Hz if they weren't capped. But why is it a dumb buy in your opinion? I don't see any LCDs with 160-180 Hz spec on the market and a capped 144 Hz is s...

Re: BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

BTW, this is the only panel I know of which is >30 inch and is not IPS..? No. There will be also an Acer equivalent: http://www.overclock.net/t/1552453/various-acer-predator-z35-curved-35-va-g-sync-144hz-21-9-monitor Cant wait for that z35. Everything about it is perfect. Except the resolution, but...

Re: BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

For my application I care less about color and resolution and I'm more interested in a big screen (>27 inch) with low input latency (<20 ms), high refresh rate and wide viewing angles. You can imagine why I'm excited about this new panel. :D Just curious if the quality can come close to BENQ's TN mo...

BenQ Announce Curved 35" XR3501 with 144Hz VA Panel

http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/news_archive/33.htm#benq_xr3501 What do we think? 35 inch and VA instead of IPS with a 4ms GTG response time. Could be interesting in terms of motion blur reduction, especially if you can run some sort of backlight strobing (lightboost)? I'm actually looking for a bigger ...
