Is the BenQ XL2566k able to do QFT like the ViewSonic XG2431?

Yeah. Here are my settings. By default the pixel clock for me was 932.40, but it can be pushed a bit.

Are the viewing angles on this any better than the XL2456K? The vertical viewing angle was way too distracting for me

Is the OptimumTech review of this monitor an accurate representation of how the colors look on this monitor?
Looks better than my Viewsonic XG270 240hz and I'm really really trying to weigh the costs and benefits of upgrading.
How is Dyac+? I've never used a Zowie monitor and it's been like 10 years since I used a TN panel.

I’m contemplating whether this monitor would be worth it for me. I’ve never owned a zowie monitor or a TN panel so this is very intriguing.

I currently have a Pg279qm and acer 390hz.. the Pg279qm has the better panel and handles motion better despite only being 240hz, but doesn’t feel as snappy as the 24inch. I’m starting to believe 24inch provides the most locked in snappy feeling in game.
Despite the low input lag and responsiveness of the acer, it still has the noticeable motion blur and I don’t like how dark it gets with VRB extreme.

I think I’m going to sell my current monitors, pick up this zowie for fps games, and eventually get a 4K OLED 32” monitor for single player games once those become a thing. I’ve a got a 4K tv but it’s capped at 60 which is fine for story mode games.
