Re: I have a BenQ/Zowie XL2740, and I love it.

@A Solid Lad: I see you’ve used both the XL2540 and XL2740. Are they both the same running at 144/120 hz? I’m now considering the Acer Predator XN253QX as I’ve read multiple reports that this monitor performs better in terms of both input lag and motion blur than the XL2546 at 120/144hz. Now that th...

Re: Found the best gaming monitor by accident

It seems that the XN253QX works with 100, 120 and 144 modes with ULMB but there are problems with 100 so it isn’t recommended (source: https://pcmonitors.info/reviews/acer-xn253qx/). Thanks to BlurBoss, it seems I’ve found the right monitor. Now I just need to figure out whether to get the 240 or 14...

Re: Found the best gaming monitor by accident

There are many aspects to "blur reduction" in some XL2456 wins, in others wins XN253Q Pbmiprzx. I'm selling my XL2456 and keeping XN253Q Pbmiprzx. Yes, I've tried XL2456 in 144 Hz and to me the motion on it looks and feels worse. There is no general consensus. Read this: https://forums.blurbusters....

Re: Found the best gaming monitor by accident

Did you try the XL2546 in 144hz mode? It seems like it might be the lower refresh rate rather than the different monitor that fixed the problem. The XL2546 is the monitor that I’m considering getting as it seems to be the best option on the market for blur reduction. Is this not the case and is ther...

XL2546 VS XL2740

Which of these two monitors offers the best blur reduction and image quality/clarity with blur reduction/strobing enabled at 100-144hz? There seem to be a lot of conflicting reports online. I want to run at 100hz as this is a long-term achievable performance baseline and from what I’ve read, being w...
