NEW 500hz ASUS OLED vs 240HZ BENQ. OLED BAD CLARITY?

I'm the #1 Black Widow in Marvel Rivals, XLEK, and I can't figure out why the new ASUS XG27AQDPG OLED Monitor has worse clarity than my older 240hz BenQ.

**VRR OFF, GYNC OFF, VSYNC OFF**
Using provided display port cable that came with the Asus Monitor

Asus XG27AQDPG (2025)

1440P @ 500hz = blurry
1080P @ 500hz = blurry
1440P @ 240hz ELMB ON = blurry
1080P @ 240hz ELMB ON = blurry

*not showing all pictures for tests, 500hz is enough proof imo*

BenQ XL2540K (2020)

1080P @ 240hz + Dyac (Dev Mode Combo/not in settings) = Clear
Instant Mode On & Premium AMA.

What I've checked:
I have already reset the new OLED monitor back to factory settings.
I made sure all the resolutions in Nvidia Control Panel were matching in the tests above.

I understand that I get more FPS on 1080p in-game versus 1440p, which is honestly pretty bad since I lose 100FPS and that bothers me more than the clarity but it doesn't make sense my TestUFO is blurry.

PC Specs:
i914900KS
3600hz cl14 32GB (2x16) DDR4 - OC 4200hz 16-16-16-32
MSI Trio 3090 Core +60 / Memory 240+

You seem to be misunderstanding the behavior of sample & hold VS impulsed displays
Because the sample (refresh) rate of OLED and your game's FPS is not good enough to get the eye-tracked motion clarity performance of your BenQ when you're 240+FPS @ 240Hz.
Refer to this topic: https://blurbusters.com/the-stroboscopi ... -displays/

To get anywhere near the eye-tracked performance of your BenQ (with DyAc enabled), you'd need to run your game at +1k FPS on a +1kHz OLED display.

Best widow is sora from latin América, but u are good Yes.

I bought oled and 600hz benq, so u dont have too.

Oled is faster and is darker, benq has advantage only in specific games as valorant and cs.

For hero shooter i recommend oled cause its well colorem and is really the fastest.

About motion clarity both are equally good, i think u are Just adapting
