What's wrong with the HP Omenf? Seems to have the lowest input lag of 2.6ms

The lack of eye, -vision protection. For me, it is very important. On the official HP website I could not find data on that, correct me if Im wrong. Please.

Zowie xl2546 has great strobe crosstalk fine tuning , all 240hz monitors suffer crosstalk but if you can finetune it that is to me very important
Thanks for the great info!

@MoniThor I've never heard of that before until now. What is this '-vision protection' property, within a monitor, you need?

Thanks

Oh, yeah, '-vision protection' is simply reduced blue light. I don't think blue light reduction is limited to those monitors, they might just have an easy function to reduce it through the display panel, but monitor warmth adjustment essentially does the same thing. You don't have to be limited to just those monitors you listed. Plus Windows 10 has a night feature that reduces the blue band via a slider bar (1% adjustments) I'm sure there are other ways to reduce blue band light, too.

Hope that helps.

Nothing wrong with the Omen X25f. Best 240hz monitor I've had, and I've had a lot.

I bought the X 25f two times and both suffered from pixel inversion (vertical lines) in game beside that
it's a nice and fast monitor.

Inversion artifact.

Inversion is a 100% normal invisible algorithm built into all LCDs.
It's supposed to be invisible most of the time but sometimes it isn't.
What you are seeing is an inversion artifact.

Do not confuse "inversion" (LCD-balancing method) with "inversion artifact" (occasionally visible side effect)

Thanks for correcting me Chief! I forgot the word "artifact" indeed (me noob) ;).
Back to the X 25f for me it wasn't occasionally.

The announced Eve Spectrum is also quite an interesting option.

By the way, Chief Blur Buster, did you really write several posts on their forum? There is an assumption that all these pre-orders for the monitor may be a scam.
