BenQZowie XL2566K 24.5 Fast TN in 360Hz Gaming Monitor | Motion Clarity DyAc⁺ | 1080p | XL Setting to Share | Custom Quick Menu | S Switch | Shield | Smaller Base | Adjustable Height & Tilt, Black

The perfect monitor if you’re a serious competitive gamer, do not consider IPS panels or even OLEDs, the motion clarity on this one is just insane, literally no blur at all 10/10 would recommend, and for a TN panel the colors are insanely good on this one. It is also pretty sharp for 1080p res, in fact it’s the clearest/sharpest 1080p monitor I’ve used

This monitor requires a lot of tweaking for whatever you want out of it. It can achieve great colors but you will constantly have to use the s-switch to change settings for each application.I was considering this and the PG27AQN and I believe I will be sticking with this. The motion clarity is just too good to sacrifice for the 1440p/360hz/IPS/ULMB 2 combination. I have a PG279Q which was the highest end monitor at the time of release and 1440p is good, but it's not as clear as 4k and that leaves something to be desired (I have a 4k 144hz). Games like Starfield are extra crisp with the motion clarity, as well as D4/D2R, RDR2, Cyberpunk, etc. 1080p is definitely not great in games but at the time being it is the only way to get the most out of today's motion clarity technology.EDIT: Just tried the PG27AQDM, and while I have it set up right next to the XL2566k, I will be keeping the latter. The OLED of the first is obviously top tier and great, but I cannot live without the motion clarity despite the poor viewing angles.

My son selected this monitor because PeterBot and other pros use it, and it has performance specs matching what is used in live Fornite competitions. A known pro PC tweaker assisted with configurations. Big upgrade over Asus Tuf 260mhz monitor used previously. Son is loving it.

What can I say? This 400 refresh rate BenQ Zowie monitor is lightweight, easy to use and set up, screen size is just right, picture quality and clarity with the 400hz is amazing when playing counter-strike at the classic 1280x960. The game is so clear and has barely any blur that my eyes are still trying to get used to it after switching from a $250 240hz bestbuy monitor! WOW!

(Video is first class but the audio card is not much better than complimentary economy class earbuds)This is the review for the 280hz dyac 2. 24 inch. In terms of video image anti-ghosting for pubg this is it, but it will require a getting used to due to the monitor due to the dyac strobe.Now that I got the good out... The sound card that is integrated in the monitor is absolutely unacceptable, my 32inch from a different brand 4 years ago that is around 150 bucks has a better sound pass through. I have a good feeling there is no sound card and just hdmi or displayport passthrough(which is fine for most other monitos except for mine) The sound quality is not great and max volume is wayyyy quieter than plugging into a different monitor or directly to the computer

A TN panel in 2023 isn’t the move for most use cases. However, I pretty much only play apex legends and other shooters on my computer, and I have another 32” 1440p lg monitor for content consumption.That being said, this monitor is really, really good. The black equalizer and color vibrance features work well, and Dyac+ seems to work great. I’ve played with dyac on and off. To be honest, I can’t tell the difference unless I’m REALLY trying and am like dragging a window with text across my desktop and trying to read it at the same time.With it being 1080p, my frame rate is always capped (I have a 4080- I know. Overkill.) My tracking has noticeably improved as well. 360 hz is noticeable, as I came from a 144hz monitor.Now, with all this said, would I recommend it to people?No. Not unless all you do is play shooters or have a good second monitor for other stuff.I’d still much prefer to play a game like elden ring or Witcher on a bigger 1440p IPS display.Also, I forgot to mention- optimum tech on YouTube has a video on this monitor with some color settings to make it look better. I highly recommend using those settings and then just dialing in the gamma and color vibrance. The display actually doesn’t look bad at all.

The monitor itself is really amazing, it is a bit of a risk to buy a TN panel in 2025, but Zowie monitors are one of the best for competitive games like CS, Val, OW, Cod, etc.Unfortunately a white line would appear in the bottom right corner when I would turn the Dyac+ mode on, but would disappear when it turned on. So I had to return it.Overall, great monitor while it lasted, would recommend if you're really into comp games, but wouldn't recommend if you do some comp, some casual / story games.

Great screen. My son loves it.
