Re: NEW Benq Zowie Monitors Speculation/Info Thread (XL2546K-B, XL2546K, XL2411K)

Just get it from amazon.de ? I wouldn't bother with international purchases and returns, and in case I decide to keep the monitor, I want to support the home market (a specific favourite store to be exact). I definitely don't want to give my money to Amazon. Anyway, XL2546K will be available in my ...

Re: Official Asus ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QN Owners Thread

Anyway, I was rather hoping you'd shed some more light on why PG259QN wouldn't cooperate too well with GTX 900 series. Is it because of the older DisplayPort version? What about firmware update with newer DP support I mentioned? Yes, older DIsplayPort. DisplayPort is just a bandwidth budget. The ba...

Re: NEW Benq Zowie Monitors Speculation/Info Thread (XL2546K-B, XL2546K, XL2411K)

I'm hoping we will see a 1440p 240hz 27in with dyac+. Highly doubtful. ... I'd imagine they don't see much of a point in releasing higher resolution displays. While I do agree with you, they did so in the past with the XL2730/35 (144hz 1440p with BBR aka DyAc), so it's not completely out of the que...

Re: BenQ Zowie XL2546K 240hz TN

. You actually got me curious, as I haven't played CS:GO in ages - do pros use DyAc (or other motion blur reduction technologies, if not on a BenQ monitor)? You mentioned that you personally don't find it useful, but I'm wondering if other players/ pros feel the same way. I'm assuming there is a co...

Re: Official Asus ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QN Owners Thread

I assume it's a bad idea to buy 360 Hz monitor if one has GTX 900 series GPU or older then? I'm still on GTX 980Ti and I was wondering if that'd cause me trouble with PG259QN. If you already have 144Hz+ or 240Hz+, get a RTX 3070 first. It's probably a better-priority upgrade. I don't think I need R...

Re: Official Asus ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QN Owners Thread

Is this problem because I am still on the GTX 970? Any information or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. It is the 970. You might be able to get 360 Hz working at reduced blankings or slightly lower resolution via ToastyX CRU. I think it's the pixel clock bandwidth budget. It was h...

Re: Official Asus ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QN Owners Thread

Will this monitor work properly with GTX 980Ti? I've seen someone complaining in a comment at one of the biggest stores in my country that PG259QN did not work as intended on GTX 970, store support answered that customer, they said a newer graphics card with DP 1.4 support is needed. Apparently my G...

Re: BenQ Zowie XL2546K 240hz TN

Personally I love strobing, it does a great job not only in the way it helps understanding every piece of information during teamfights in games like Overwatch but it helps even in games like R6S for recoil control (it mitigates the blur created from recoil shaking). Monitors are a very subjective ...

Re: BenQ Zowie XL2546K 240hz TN

Well, I think it's also safe to say it's subjective, and would explain why our experiences in that matter vary :) Even though I admit that I saw less smearing on 240 Hz TN in UFO Test, the image itself was still sharper and clearer on 280 Hz IPS regardless of added smearing, and what's the most imp...

Re: BenQ Zowie XL2546K 240hz TN

Compare 2 of the best 240hz TN with one of the best tuned 240hz IPS, respectively using the best overdrive for each monitor. https://i.imgur.com/tIIEBSg.png I'd say that the Benq is still the best, it clearly suffers from overshoot compared to the KD25F, so you might prefer the latter if you are se...
