Re: Simple 144hz monitor?

I've read a review saying the Iiyama is PWM-free.

Source: http://www.digitalversus.com/lcd-monito ... /test.html

At this point it's between the Benq and the Iiyama for me

Re: Simple 144hz monitor?

I think my choices are:

AOC G2460PQU
IIYAMA ProLite GB2488HSU
BenQ XL2411Z
Acer GN246HL

The Acer doesn't have height adjustability so forget that one, but out of the other 3 I think only the Benq is PWM-free? However better colours is more important than PWM-free. If they all have the same colours ...

Re: Simple 144hz monitor?

There is the eizo FG2421 it has a va panel so the colors and black will be better then most tn's. I am not sure about the input lag on it but I thought it was very good. You get blur reduction as a bonus it has a 120hz panel though. Most other tn paneled 144hz screens are pretty much generic imo ...

Simple 144hz monitor?

I'm looking for a 144hz monitor that has solid performance and good colours. It doesn't need any features such as G-sync, blur-reduction or be lightboost compatible because they won't be used but it does need to be capable of producing a good image. It doesn't have to be something that came out ...

Re: XL2720Z cant use Low-Blue-Light-feature with Profilekeys

It's the exact same thing for the "Black eQualizer" feature, the gamer profiles have this disabled!!!

Does Benq expect the user to manually scroll through the picture modes every time they want to enable and disable Black eQualizer for gaming and desktop use?

What is the point of the S-switch if ...

Re: XL2420Z v2 UK availability?

Sorry for bump but just thought I'd do an update for anyone interested.

I purchased the xl2420z from amazon UK a few days ago and it arrived yesterday.

It's running V1 firmware, more specifically "V001-20131126". The manufacture date is January 2014.

Considering BenQ said V2 will be implemented ...

Re: XL2420Z v2 UK availability?

For anyone interested this is what Benq Europe had to say:

The version 2 software will be implemented in production line from March, therefore it will pass a couple of months before the monitors with the version 2 software will be released for sale.
Looks like we won't be able to directly buy a ...

Re: XL2420Z v2 UK availability?

Oh yeah good point, ok I've sent Benq UK a message so we'll see what they say. I'll update the thread if they say something useful.

As for the DIY route, I think I'd rather wait for an official version than do the upgrade myself. I don't have the tools/money at the moment, although I may go that ...
