Do you need a DyAc+ monitor to play your best? feat. BenQ Zowie XL2746K
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 січ 2022
- If you're here, you probably want to unlock your potential to play your best. Monitor definitely matters and one point of interest is the new DyAc+ tech from Zowie. Is it better than regular DyAc? What about 240Hz with DyAc+ vs 360Hz?
It might offer some advantage, but tech is getting so good now, it's unlikely it's going to make that much difference. Unless you're going pro, where you need everything to be as perfect as possible, then maybe. If you're just a competitive player, I'd rather recommend a 1440p 240Hz monitor. And between 360Hz and 240Hz DyAc+? DyAc+ maybe very slightly a tiny bit better, just because of the blur test in Overwatch that we do. But in game? I didn't think about it or notice it, it's more about game sense and how well I'm playing in other ways.
You should know what to expect from BenQ Zowie monitors, good quality, always enjoyed playing on them, pretty cool look, competitive-player focused, and the settings changing puck is great. So yeah, if you're after a great 240Hz 1080p monitor for competitive play, it's great. But please, Zowie, give us a 1440p version!
I'll upload my settings to the site in the next week or so and leave an update here.
Thanks to BenQ for sending this out for testing!

I originally purchased a cheap 144Hz monitor that included a "anti-ghosting strobe" feature. After seeing how much better it looked (but with unplayable brightness) I decided to return it and go all out on the XL2546S. When toggling Dyac on and off, I can absolutely tell a difference; it becomes even more noticable with desktop use like dragging windows around and still being able to read them or scrolling really fast down a page and being able to read it.
Good point!
I recently changed from an alienware 240hz to the XL2746K, and I will say you can tell the difference. That being said the only tangible change is the noticeably reduced ghosting, (mostly during fast movements) which to me is only advantageous given that I found the ghost artifacting on other monitors to be quite distracting during play.
To anyone already on 240/360 hz I wouldn't recommend switching unless you find this issue to be a big deal. All other elements of this monitor are pretty standard when it comes to high refresh rate displays, and many others come with more appealing features like better colour accuracy, larger display size and smaller bezels. (XL2746K has 2/3rds inch bezels)
I LOVE this monitor and DyAc+ but it's not some silver bullet when it comes to endgame esports displays.
I went from 1440p / 165hz IPS back to 1080p / 240hz TN (& DYAC). It's a night and day difference and really upped my game due to less input lag overall, but also with how clear it is.
I second Otta on this opinion. I went from Alienware AW2721D 240hz IPS 1440p to this and the colours and pixel density really made me unhappy but the gaming performance... well... put it this way it is on a whole new level of awsome! Just Magical!
Hey there, did you switch from AW2521HF? That’s the Alienware 240 I’m using, was interested in finding a comparison like yours
@@ryangause6443 I swapped from AW2518HF (24.5 inch TN display) Slightly different model. Very similar specs but I believe AW2521HF is an IPS display
I been looking for comment like this thank you so much, I have been deciding which is better but those online ratings are so bias lmao, you saved my life bro!
I have the first one (XL2540?) and I could definitely tell the difference in Overwatch when I used to play that. There's a lot of fast movements with people in your face, the extra smoothness helps with figuring out where everyone is asap.
XL2540 DOESNT HAVE DYAC
@@cvxey Ye wasn't sure about the actual name at the time of writing that comment, it's the XL2546. Didn't even know 40 existed.
Honestly I just miss CRTs.. LCDs still haven't fully caught up to the clear motion clarity and probably never will until we get new technology as it's the sample and hold nature of LCDs that cause the blur but who knows maybe when we reach 500hz it might be close enough
High refresh OLED is the next step.
@@moepOo this ^
I remember in 2004 when I switched from my old CRT to a brand new flatscreen monitor. I was amazed by the colors but oh god, the ghosting and input lag was so high, I was sad and happy at the same time.
I have a good crt monitor , shots I take in CSGO leaves my team in shock no blur and input lag none maybe 1ms for the active adapter but damn the problem is the resolution have to be low to maximize frame rate and you can only go so far the only monitor is this bnq dyac that can challenge my crt but crt color and image Dept is so good 1024*768 for fps and 1600*1200 Or 2100*1800 interlaced it's like magic! Looks amazing 😭 But only 18 inch 4*3 I hate that part of it
@@moepOo Samsung just showed the first 240hz oled monitor off
short and sweet, enjoyed the vid! my eyes are slowly getting tired of 1080p lol :P
I can definitely tell the difference in clarity when using black frame insertion on my monitor. Which I believe is a similar technique.
The reduction in motion blur is big and I definitely turn the feature on if I can maintain max framerate in a game.
Black frame insertion (the non-marketing term for DyAc) is also good because you get increased clarity without needing a machine that can drive these very high frame rates, e.g. even 60hz BFI will blur less than regular 120hz sample-and-hold. For a more in depth look at this stuff I suggest Aperture Grille's (the guy whose videos got tftcentral and HUB to change their response time methodology) review of the BlurBusters tuned Viewsonic XG270 where he measured close to CRT clarity, at least in the middle of the screen (someone send that man more monitors to test).
Honestly I just miss CRTs haha
@@HollowRick I am still using 60hz
@@nicktan4530 🤢🤮
@@FerventReminder no choice. Cannot afford at the moment.
@@nicktan4530 That's fair enough man, I understand the struggle. Although I haven't really played games in a fair while, I couldn't go back to 60hz.
All the best!
Third! I like motion blur reduction tech, but honestly after having used 1440p 240hz for a while I wouldn't pay extra for Dyac unless they manage a 1440p IPS panel with Dyac+2 or something like that. I looooooooooove motion clarity (not that I'm good enough to where it matters, I just really like it).
Agreed!
Oh do I have something to tell you, my buddy o' pal! 😁 Check you the new Viewsonic XG2431.
Im waiting for it aswell.
@@Quixidion Had that on my wishlist, but unfortunately:
1: It's only 1080p
2: It's... not launching in Europe :(
Meh
I am still using 60hz 8ms. I also using laptop screen.
This is why I own both and use them interchangeably depending on what I need, if I am doing a intense gaming session I will use BENQ, otherwise I use my IPS 270hz ASUS monitor.
Talks a lot of sense this bloke and more than just game sense. Always worth a listen.
Can you just do a DyAc+ test vs no DyAc+? Because Zowie's newest monitor has 360hz, so the real question is just does DyAc+ give you a competitive edge over being off and if so by how much
The motion blur reduction with dyac is 100% observable with just the UFO test. Imo it's a must but I agree I don't think it will override everything. I haven't tried 360hz or above so maybe more refresh is big but from everything im hearing more refresh isn't a massive change over 240hz. plus you need fps to support going that high i would think
Not really, it’s cool but is it 300$ more then other monitors cool? No. Provided your monitor has not much ghosting without any backlight strobing you will be just fine. Does it help - sometimes yes, but it’s not something that’s going to make you a more consistent player. Buying a mouse that fits you better with its shape would make you 10000x better then DYAC ever could. Same with mousepads.
Dyac premium is way more of a game changer than more fps, I thought it was a gimmick but it actually make an insane difference
I love it how 20+ years after the demise of CRTs and total domination of LCDs, manufacturers at some point were like "Ok we've finally figured it out: LCDs just need to be more like CRTs"
Imo 1080p still looks fine and I think it does for most people too and they just don't realize it. What I mean by that is the reason 1080p looks so bad in modern games is because of TAA, 1080p looks awful with TAA you need at least 1440p or above for TAA to look good, and every modern game defaults to TAA or forces it.
To give it a fair comparison to another scenario it's like watching a 1080p video encoded in a very compressed codec vs a lossless one, or a 1080p video in low bitrate vs high bitrate, 1080p TAA just has weird problems that make it look even less detailed and lower of a resolution. So my advice is to try other AA solutions if avalible and if they're well implemented or use the render scale option at 133%+ to render at 1440p with TAA and you'll be fine
I think having no monitor blur is a huge advantage however dyac+ (backlight strobing) only reduces it not completely eliminates it, and even if it did theirs still varying levels of cross-talk double imaging. If you use a high end CRT however with perfect motion clarity you'd see how well keeping track of targets and tracking is. If backlight strobing ever becomes perfect I think it will be a must have, all forms of this tech have some sort of compromise depending on who makes it like using a lower hz, reduced brightness, crosstalk, etc. Dyac+ is definitely the best thus far, I'm interested to see how well it can get and especially on OLED panels since their response time is so fast, seems like a great combination if some love is put into it. (R&D, which currently there isn't. Only Zowie's TN panels get proper R&D)
Do many people still use CRTs though, surely there are some pretty big compromises from using them?
What's an example of a good one?
@@FerventReminder The GDM-FW900 CRT is one of the best, perfect motion clarity.
The only downside of a CRT is their size and weight, image quality and performance wise they're perfect. Also the fact since they're all old now, if you were to buy a previously owned one it would only be half as bright as it use to be, and also they're impossible to repair now that they're not manufactured anymore and, and that scarcity also brings up price but that's not downsides to the tech its downsides to the fact they're not made anymore/are all used
I love my old rl2455 zowies. Couldnt see spending the money on a super high refresh rate monitor because I'm not quick enough to take advantage of it. Great review though and maybe ill look at a new Zowie in the future regardless of the tech on board.
Great video Zy!
Dyac+ keeps the brightness intact, and it has the least ghosting in the market.
No other backlight strobing method compares to it. So they have best visibility aswell.
I couldn't care less about 240 or 1ms better response times.
Anyone see the Zowie Dyac vs. Acer Nitro 390hz monitor on the backlight strobing? Pretty damn close comparison
xg2431 has taken over as the best strobing. Watch some videos of that optimum tech has a good one
@@scotty_teee4226 although the panel and strobing seems to be better, the brightness and colors are a draw back. Optimum tech still picks the 390hz at it's current price point. Both seems good for the money...
@@jcam1987 with strobbing on, the brightness reaches an amazing 109 nits.
@@TTks124 honestly, nits under 300 isn't amazing.
here is a VERY significant thing to have... make sure you get a extremely high-quality 8k hdmi cable... monster makes some good ones...
even with certain "high speed ethernet HDMI cables" don't support certain resolutions at higherer refresh rates...
especially if you are playing at 4k resolution at 120hz or higher.
remember if your using a hdtv as your monitor ***Make sure to put it on GAME mode" (specifically LG TVS) or you will get the worst input lag you can imagine
... displayport is a thing
yea.. VERY significant thing would be a DP cable
@@azo0ownz yeah i looked into that and think you're right.
ive never bothered with them before cause ive always used monster hdmi cables, but after doing some research the Data Port appears to be the way to go.
Thanks 👍
Dyac is a huge difference in game for sure.
Why not get an 390hz+backlight strobing？PWM on XL2546 is such a headache, my eyes hurt really
Im the best player on earth (also in quake) and I can only say that I wouldnt be the best without a good hardware. Its like being in F1, but instead of driving an F1 car you are trying to race in a go-kart - good luck with that.
i use dell Dell AW2721D 27" 240Hz IPS 2560x1440 , is hdr600 too, nice bleed levels and bevel sides
Hi rocket jump ninja, can you do a video on the new zowie za13-c mouse ? A lot of people say it's the perfect claw grip mouse.
I've already covered the ZA13, it definitely has a fan club but I don't think it's that good. It's decent, but yeah depends what you like I guess.
@@RocketJumpNinja okay thx for the feedback
I couldn't live without DYAC. Regardless if it's better or not, it's really nice to use. All preference in the end.
delusion
@@stupit1679 In what way? It's personal preference, such as higher res, G-Sync etc.
@Haimura Perhaps you have a faulty monitor. I have the XL2546k.
-No crosstalk (hoever if you are below the refreshrate, then yes).
-No artifacts(?)
-No microsutter
-No visible screentearing
"Eye strain" - I notice to difference, I have a 2nd IPS panel next to me.
"TN Panel" -I actually prefer this in most instances, for competitive stuff obviously. Much easier to spot / see things and the saturation / contrast is excellent as well.
"I play better with it off" - It's not for everyone. Personally for a few specific games I also turn it off.
"Reaction times worse with DYAC" - It's about 1ms, the same as G-Sync additional delay. Placebo.
Glad to see you playing Apex! Looking forward to see more Apex gameplay from you! I have the same thoughts regarding 1440p 240hz vs DyAC. In BR games the visual clarity is much more important than in tac shooters. But maybe DyAC could help in CQC, which is the type of combat in Apex final rings.
yes the monitor you choose depends on the purpose. For CsGo the benq is the way to go, for BR Games or any other game i would go for 2k 144hz.
@@mrzclips I want to try dyac as well. Hopefully there will be 1440p dyac monitors in the future so we can have both. I’m just not willing to go back to 1080p at this point.
What about the Viewsonic XG2431?
Optimum Tech said its even better than dyac+
So cool to see apex gameplay from you as it’s just so unexpected. Also ye I’m not sure how much it actually matters as there are pros that have the zowie monitors but still don’t even use dyac. Will probably just be better with higher refresh rate and resolution
I am semi pro CSGO player and dyacs difference for me is being able to tell exactly what animation the enemy is doing to read movement, with it off sometimes I misread the direction changes as well as flick vision accuracy during fast movements to tell small details like the movement or what weapon enemy has far away etc.
What is your ama set at btw?
I have it at Premium but I dont believe it is that big of a deal I just copied majority of what pros use
I'm using the XL2546K right now, and it's a fantastic monitor. But I do wish companies would make a 1440p, 240hz, 24inch monitor because I prefer 24inch vs 27inch. Sadly no company seems to be making any, so in the future I will probably end up switching to 1440p 240hz 27inch. :(
Also IMO the biggest downside to Zowie monitors is that they're all TN. IPS is such a huge loss, despite getting better performance.
I agree with you. I would certainly save up for 24 inch 240hz or higher with 1440p IPS panel. HDR is optional. But of course the monitor must not look ugly and have to be minimal.
agree with monitor size.. 1440p on 24 inch is very sharp.. but since i changed to 1440p 27 inch..i noticed my confidence going for headshot increased due to targets are bigger on 27 inch monitor.. so ive kinda changed my mind that sweetspot is to 25-26 inch now, from 24 inch..
I used to have the Dell S2417DG. It was an amazing monitor except it had HUGE issues with banding in dark scenes. I'd kill for a monitor in that size/resolution again but with these modern IPS panels.
@@dontpokethebear3893 100 % fking agree and am a big fan of that monitor. I always wanted an improved S2417DG looks and thinner bezel and all aluminum construction even at the back. 1440p IPS 1ms and make it 240hz. Considering the fact most gaming monitor looks ugly.
I Have a dyac monitor and can only tell a difference on ufo test there is a huge difference light and day difference. but in games I would never be able to tell from a 240hz and dyac 240.
I had (well actually I still have) xl2546 monitor which I used for 3 years and in october 2020 I switched to asus rog 360hz monitor and the amount of motion blur was unbelievable. And it wasn't just placebo because I didn't even know that I had dyac enabled or cared about what it actually is. It's on person by person basis and now I use 360hz (after a year of usage) as a secondary monitor because the resell value is less then half of what I actually paid for it. So I switched back to xl2546 and recently I upgraded to xl2546k and IPS is still not ready, TN is king and Zowie is king of TN panels.
I just got the Zowie and I feel like returning it for Viewsonic XG2431. I paid so much here in Canada. 675 dollars. Do i need a better gpu to get the most out of this? Currently 90fps on warzone lol no dyac only using ama high
Is the difference between 2546 vs 2546k really there?
Same 💩 man.. I have 240hz BenQ,upgrade to 4090 and make bad buy asus aqn 360hz IPS… So return back to 240hz and use 360 as secondary monitor. Now think about 360 from BenQ because price drop 📉 😅
I’m waiting for 360hz + DyAc before upgrading monitors (already at 165hz)
BenQ ZOWIE Xl2566K there now
hi zy, you might not read this but if you do, not only do i think it would be interesting to make a test of high refresh rate monitors with different monitor brightness absolute levels (due to the backlight and hence the strobing), but also specifically test dyac and dyac+ with brightness.
why i say this is because of it apparently being that the backlight on the zowie monitors is what give the dyac advantage and what makes it better than say asus's ULMB.
there was a video comparing the 2 monitors in a simply very direct, basic, straight to the point way (no fancy editing, branding, screen recording, just good quality irl recording), and the results were obvious. they did a ufo test side by side right up front of the monitors' screens with a camera, which may refer to what you said about needing a certain way to pick it up, and it was extremely noticeable.
the backlight alone of monitors reduced blurriness, and with the added effect of the asus monitor having ghosting especially with its ULMB, the dyac+ was an obvious instant choice...
(and because of this being backlight orientated, of course the only brightness settings that would matter are the monitor itself, unless there would be known issues with brightness in like a game used with in the test or whatever...)
The GIT GUUD speech, love it
I do think most pro's if not almost all pro's are in love with Dyac+. While spraying a weapon in CS:GO you will get more picture clarity, which can make or break a good spray / transfer.
Also BenQ always market Dyac+ with CS:GO. I do think this game is an exception to what you described in this video.
I'll have to try it with CS:GO I guess! But then I'll have to learn spray patterns too. *shudder
@@RocketJumpNinja Haha you'll do fine. Just draw a 7 on the wall with most guns ^^
For real? Why has no one ever told me that before 😂
Man just need a 24 inch 1440p high resolution monitor or a 25 inch. 27 is too big
truuuuue.
27inch is max for gaming
What do you think is more beneficial G Sync or Dyac?
Dyac
Blur reduction tech>Hz. A few Milliseconds aren't going to win you a gunfight. It's a misconception aiming is down to base human reflexes. It mainly has to do with executive function reflex. Which is your ability to react to complicated information requiring judgment and decision making. This decision making can be as simple as tracking which way an enemy is going and to have a solid concept of movement in space. For these purposes, aiming initial shot becomes a 300ms+ process at the fast end, and even pros rarely hit follow-up shots at max Fire-rate on certain guns.
I'd say in games with any degree of high-motion, MBR quality is going to the most important factor. I went as low as 120hz on a 240 panel simply because the MBR was even *better* than my Benq with Dyac. Of course, I track-aim. But until they hit ludicrous FPS, the perceived increase in motion clarity by just spamming refreshrate is going to be less important than the tech on the monitor itself.
Will you review the Zaunkoenig M2k ?
I've been using a 144hz monitor (MSI Optix MAG241C) for about two years and was thinking of doing a serious upgrade to the Acer Nitro XV252QF (the 390hz monitor). Regarding the latter, do you think the BenQ Zowie XL2746K is still better?
Anyway thank you so much for always being clear in your videos.
just fyi, DyAc+ does not reduce brightness, and has the least input lag of any strobing. it's available on the new K models
I want Dyac soooo bad but I can’t go back to 1080p, it’s just too low res for me. Zowie really needs a 1440p 240Hz Dyac, I don’t care what it costs I will buy instantly!!
I have it and honestly like the video said you can't even tell the difference. I noticed that i play best when its off
Well i got my monitor like 3 years ago and ended up refunding a 1080p 240hz monitor and I got a 1440p 144Hz Dyac monitor
I have the same feeling, the are all so close. But like you, I cannot use a 1080 monitor, it doesnt work for me anyway.
Recently picked up apex as well. Really fun game. Only issue with bfi is no vrr.
Hi there,
Is the dyac only beneficial if you gave a gpu that can hold 240 fps in game?
Thanks, i have a xl2430, greetings from chile 🇨🇱
is there a Dyac monitor 1440p res and atleast 240hz ? also 360hz ? I currently use dell alienware 240hz and the ghosting is unreal, too much ghosting and i dont like it, I wonder if I should buy this monitor? I know aceu from twitch has this monitor maybe its a good antighosting monitor
How many hours were you using the dyac monitor? :O
have you tried the ninjutso katana mouse yet?
how bad is DyAc for the eyes?(
I was curious to see the ufo test
Your mice is insane and so are you. Thank you for your service.
My personal experience testing a new 240hz monitor recently was exactly how you put it, very minor difference if not placebo. Starting to feel the same way about mice now that I found the shape I like. Can spend a lot of time getting your set up perfect and not focusing on game sense(practicing) really well put.
I debated between these two type of monitors two days ago. I had a 27” 1080p 240hz acer predator. I wanted to go smaller monitor with either higher refresh rate or with Dyac and ending up with a 27” Asus Tuf 1440 170hz monitor. Was not disappointed with the decision. Although it’s a lower refresh rate I can see better details in game like Apex.
Difference between ur old XL2740 and new XL2746K please.
I was wondering if its worth upgrading cuz of the 0.5ms
DYAC IS WHAT U NEED
I'm sad I can never use a monitor with strobing. It makes my eyes hurt so much :(
I had monitors with strobing since 2015 and never really used it. It always felt straining.
i just wish we finally get 24' 1440p 300Hz monitors, all the announced/released 1440p240Hz+ monitors (including the new MiniLED 300Hz and the 360Hz) are 27'+ and that sucks.
Never gonna happen
Hey Zy, great content as usual!
Could you perhaps elaborate on the comment of 1080 is just not doing it for you any more?
I'm still on an XL2420T and have never felt the desire of going 1440p (or higher refresh rate as my hardware could't supply more than ~150FPS anyways).
Also I'm just so used to 1080. On the other hand, I haven't even tasted the "forbidden fruit" yet.
As I've recently upgraded my rig to a 12600k paired with a 3080, I'm now wondering if it's about time to up the monitor as well.
Very happy to see you try (and hopefully enjoy) Apex. It's my love / hate relationship.
if you don’t feel like you want a sharper image than 1080, just don’t upgrade. It’s nice but doesn’t really give a advantage in gaming. 1440 or 4k looks much better to me personally though compared to 1080 but thats probably partially because I have really good eyesight so I can see the lack of detail even from a reasonably far distance. I stick with 1080 though because my phone and ipad are high res so I can use that for stuff where resolution matters more and i can prioritize other features on my gaming monitor. If you have the money though, there are many good 1440p 240hz monitors available
Hey Zy I'm looking to upgrade from a 165hz 1080p monitor. To either a 240hz 1440p or acer 390hz. I play apex comp at C tier level and for competitive play would you recommend 1440p? I'm also coming from really low resolutions in CSGO (1024x768)
Once I got onto 1440p I even chose 144Hz over 240Hz 1080p, so yeah personally I'd recommend going 1440p. That said, I wasn't trying to be super competitive, so I can't say 100%. I think unless you're going for actual pro level, you're probably better off with the higher resolution (as long as your PC can handle the higher demand on processing). If you are going for pro, then I hear that 390Hz monitor is the way to go? Check some reviews, see what Optimum Tech recommends, he's great with this stuff and a solid FPS player.
@@RocketJumpNinja thanks for the advice brother, goodluck out there :)
Is dyac fast or premium better
i just ordred the xl2540 240hz no dyac i hope i made a good choice becuz it was a good price
what is better, benq DyAc or Asus ELMB?
given that they are both 240hz monitors
DyAc
ha, just bought a BenQ Zowie XL2746K a day before this vid
Have you tried 4k 144hz yet? I bought one and I was impressed
I find for 4K I want at least 38 inch 16:9, I don't like having to use scaling. 32" 1440p pixel ratio seems to be quite comfortable for me.
@@RocketJumpNinja Yes, Windows scaling is shit. But 200% scaling at 4k is ok for me, apparently because it scales perfectly from full hd (like exactly 2 times more then 1080p). At 28 inches I'm comfortable, although the difference is not as noticeable as between 1080p and 1440p. But at the same time, 125-150% scaling at 1440p is blurry, while 200% scaling at 4k is not. I advise you to try it, you might like it. Thanks for the answer.
you're better off turning off dyac and going into the service menu to fine tune the overdrive, this way you'll get the best balance of image clarity and response time
No you're not lol. DyAc+ is way too good
I feel like since switching to 240 w/o dyac, my inputs let me move as fast as i want, but twitching around to switch targets in something like apex where that first bullet or two matters. I will tell u i play stretched (almost) shitty res so im that guy tbf xP
on lg monitor you can adjust brightness with motion blu reduction on
I bought XL2546k and I love it! I came from xl2430
Extra resolution is negated by the motion resolution of sample and hold displays. I’m glad motion blur reduction is becoming a thing now. People that remember crts are jumping for joy.
I switched back to 60Hz to prove a point in one video, could still play really well (actually hit MORE mid air rockets somehow), so while my tracking aim is definitely better on 240Hz vs 60Hz, I don't think 240Hz VS DyAc VS DyAc+ is really worth mentioning, unless you want to be pro. The clarity of the higher resolution seems to help me more on distance shots. Up close battles, it doesn't matter, of course. And viewing the web/editing/doing any work is painful on a 1080p display, so overall, I'm still going for 1440p, regardless of motion tech.
@@RocketJumpNinja Yeah, I don’t think you’re giving yourself an advantage as much as you’re giving yourself a more pleasant experience. Fps games you constantly pan the camera and if you focus on the environment you can tell it’s a blurry mess.
where exactly can i find your zowie settings?
Not sure yet, still waiting on BenQ to get back to me!
which 240hz 1440p monitor do you recommend?
I really like the 32" G7 from Samsung, but would be nice to get ultrawide at this size in 240hz some day.
I can very clearly see the difference between dyac on and Off. I am Overall pretty good in feeling and telling different Hz. I prefer dyac Off because i can see the black fill ins they do, so it is not as smooth as it is with dyac Off.
Any one tried both xl2740 and xl2746s/k version and is it worth the upgrade?
I recently returned my dyac zowie 240hz and went back to my 360hz. it does look nice, no doubt about it, but it always felt off. I couldn't perform at my best with it. also i cant stand TN panels
Can we get a review on the viewsonic xg2431?
That the one Optimum Tech checked out? Because I saw his video, was solid, I don't think we need one from me too? I'd probably just end up saying the same as in this one "at this stage, it doesn't really matter, they're all solid, focus on your skills instead".
@@RocketJumpNinja fair enough! Yeah maybe I'll save the money side of it and just get the viewsonic! Thanks for the reply!
I am confused what DyAc is actually doing.
This is how I understand it (probably wrong): DyAc essentially "wipes" the screen with a black image between frames. This helps clean up ghosting which improves clarity.
So you are still in the 32“ 1440 gang?!
Asus ROG Swift PG27AQN , 360Hz , IPS , 27" , 1440p This is THE Monitor
Zy apex gameplay and insight? Sign me up 🙌
Would you want to watch a review maybe? I think I've got a pretty good handle on the game now, both pros and cons.
@@RocketJumpNinja I'd love to! Although I am admittedly an apex nerd already 😄 Your insights and critiques are usually very interesting so I'd love to hear your take on the game, maybe with some points on how a quake-veteran approaches apex
simple and clear 👍
I wish they made 24 inch 1440p monitors , 27 is way too big
Yep. Everything above 24'' can be thrown into garbage if we are talking about gaming.
Only thing that matter for me is 10 ms input lag (not grey at grey) maximum and around 144hz, i don't need more.
I will always prioritize the clean image from G-SYNC over any strobing.
Especially with OLED's coming at 0.1ms response times, there will be no need for strobing anymore.
Some monitors support both at the same time.
Going to be another year or two before we see any oled gaming monitors in 16:9 and 240+ refresh rate.
There is An Asus New Monitor IPS 360Hz 1440p 27" , did you see it yet brother ?? Its my Target to buy as soon its released but it has been Announced already
you could have synced the strobing with the fps of the camera
How?
Came here for the monitor review, leaving by being impressed by your sexy voice, forgot what i even came here for, holy cow.
Sounds sexy? sounds strained to me. One of the newer videos sounds more natural, although clearly recorded earlier in the day hah: ua-cam.com/video/SK5pUhPoluI/v-deo.html
Does that one sound better or worse to you?
@@RocketJumpNinja Honestly i prefer the one from this video for the monitor. The audio settings were just so good, as if i was listening to a podcast, was touching parts of my ear that have never been touched before. It was very satisfying i can't lie
Ah, I think I know what it is. Thanks for the feedback! Last q, is it the high end or low end? Bass or treble? This is quite boomy... too much low end.
@@RocketJumpNinja The bass is probably what's making it sound so good, it's literally podcast quality and i'm loving it.
Thank you
Thx
Blur Reduction helps immensly! Not in QUAKE LIVE that much though, but still there is small improvement there, I think it has to do with backgrounds not being complex and visibility of the player models. In Counter Strike the difference in clarity is night and day to me. I got 170hz monitor and I only wish I had PC and monitor that can put out those 360 frames. You can spot the differences between 170 and 240 easily and I am an old fart, so I guess younger gamers would benefit even more.
dyac makes my crosshair look all weird
Bad test, you need to be swiping the mice in csgo at 5000 dpi to see the difference XD.
No you dont, but I'm glad you picked up that $$$ for uploading this video
personally am super interested in affordable high refresh rate qd-oled monitors, let's see when they come around 😉
Dyac is really game changing technology 👍
any modern monitor will be decent honestly...
Is the diffrence between 144 hz screen and 240 as small as the diffrence between 240 and 360?
144>240 noticeable if you’re a serious gamer. 240>360 marginally noticeable.
To me, FPS games feel snappier with less input delay the higher the hz of the screen. Also less screen tearing.
If you’re playing single player games it doesn’t really matter past 144hz
I live for dyac. Games like Apex I can hardly see half the time because so much shit is going on, the environment has a lot of detail, and you're always on the move (makes less sense in arenas but if you queue pugs and hot drop things get really blurry lol, or if you reach the final ring in ranked with half the lobby still alive and all hell breaks loose). Never owned a 240hz monitor though so I guess that combination might make dyac a little less valuable? I had a dyac capable monitor years ago and have missed it dearly since, finally picking up this monitor though so hooray. Keeping in consideration the million garbage esports monitors out there with insane ghosting problems and I think dyac is nice as even just a guarantee that the monitor won't ghost like crazy.
Ok that settles it I’m buying this. Hard to justify cuz I already own a 240hz but the motion blur on it is kinda crazy
@@flux3033 thoughts now that you own one?
Ho does this differ from ULMB?
@Haimura That's what I was thinking.... ULMB actually SUCKS compared to Gsync, or adaptive sync.
When I play single player titles, I go with Gsync and a frame cap, but competitive multiplayer I go wide open, no Gsync uncapped frame rate.
so yeah now i think too that my best monitor is 360hz 1440p... (or 480hz 1080p ahahah)
