Did you actually try the XF252Q? Would be great to have a comparison between these two.Ain wrote:Got and tested the xl 2546 yesterday and I must say, that I'm kinda disappointed and will be sending it back.
The advantages it offers over my current 120hz XL2420T with strobelight utility are very few, the colors are worse and 500 EUR is a steep price to pay for that.
I'd rather wait for the OMEN X 27. Freesync 2 at 240 HZ with HDR and a higher resolution on top of that just sounds too good.
So if choosing between XF252Q and Zowie i'd probably go for the first.

Re: XF252Q Up on Amazon!
Just a quick update -- I did some basic monitor calibration and the colours look a lot better now. I used the Lagom LCD test to adjust gamma and contrast. I'm using the stock "2.2" gamma mode on the monitor and applying correction via the Nvidia driver. I recommend you do this (or better) if you do get the XF252Q. Very happy with my purchase so far.

Long time lurker but I made an account to mention this monitor is on sale at Amazon for $265. I finally pulled the trigger.
