Hello, I'm planning on buying a new monitor because mine is making my eyes hurt. I've been planning to buy a broken display and then replacing the panel so i could do something fun. I found a very good deal with the BenQ EX3203R. I can get that for only 80€, Only problem: I cant find the model number of the panel and I have no idea where to get it. I've checked Panelook.com and DisplaySpecifications and also many different sites but ive found nothing. Now, does somebody of you know where to find the model number? I'd like to repair it myself and I really wanna do it. Thanks already!

I have a question, please if you can help me, I was saving to buy this monitor, its price was 139.99, today I was finally going to buy it, but the 139.99 option is no longer there, it seems strange to me because I had seen it also at that price in newegg and I think in walmart too, and now it is nowhere at that price, where I see it available it is $50 more expensive, now I have a doubt, when I started saving I had seen several reviews of monitors , but whenever I looked for them in stores they were never available, could this be the case with this monitor too? Now I don't know what to do, because it's not just $50 more, I also have to pay shipping, I don't live in the US, I would easily have to pay $100 more, so what do you recommend? pay the $50 while it's still available?; expect it to be back at 139.99? or better to look for another monitor? thanks for your help.

Hey guys! I've been thinking of buying myself a new monitor, as mine is old and it's basically a tv/monitor. I'm not very knowledgable about monitors, so I decided to come here for an advice. I have a RX 580 8GB, so 1080p is perfect. Also I believe if I have a FreeSync display my experience will be better. I don't play much of the competetive games, as much as storyline singleplayer games. If more info is needed I would be happy to provide it This is a comparison between the monitors: https://www.displaydb.com/compare/asus-tuf-gaming-vg249q1a/asus-tuf-gaming-vg259qm/msi-optix-g251f/benq-ex2710s / https://ardes.bg/sravni/304898,297932,225266,312596 (it's in Bulgarian) Price of the monitors that I found online: Asus VG259QM - $201 Asus VG249Q1A - $223 MSI G251F - $246 BenQ EX2710s - $251 Thanks in advance!

I have this gpu https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/xfx-rs-rx-570-black-edition.b5238 I'm using a displayport cable i'm running windows 10 thanks for helping

A month ago I both the BenQ PD2705Q. Everything was fine right until I started getting vertical lines, sometimes with flickering, every time I opened any PDF file through my USB drive, from which I work in a virtual machine. A photo with those lines I took just after I booted back to my PC: Text from a PDF file in one of the lines: The lines remain, sometimes you can even see text on them from a previous PDF file, like a burn-in, but once they disappear - they disappear and no longer appear until I reopen a PDF through the USB drive. Is it possible that the USB drive and the monitor interfere in some way? I have been using the monitor just with my PC for 5 days now without putting the USB drive and everything is fine.

I am currently using a laptop with 65% sRGB rating to edit my photos and I was thinking of upgrading to the Benq EX2510 which is a 144hz IPS monitor and looks like a decent fit for me since I do play a lot of counter-strike as well. The only thing I'm wondering is whether it will be worth upgrading from my laptop's display to the Benq in terms of photo editing work. I'm just a guy who does it as a hobby so I could keep using my laptops display but if the Benq makes a noticeable difference I'll definitely consider upgrading.

I am planning to purchase a new monitor for gaming and photo editing and decided on the Benq MOBIUZ EX2510 which has an IPS panel, 99% sRGB, as well as 144hz refresh rate. I would like to know how much of a difference would there be between the Benq and other monitors (in terms of photo editing related work) in the same price range such as the Dell U2415.

I need a new monitor with 144hz to mostly play games but I also do some occasional photo editing and was wondering if it be worth it to spend around 90$ extra for an IPS 144hz panel like the BenQ Mobiuz EX2510.

Right now I'm using my iPhone SE (2020) to edit my photos since the photos i edit on my gaming laptop turn out completely different when I import them to my phone. I selected the Benq EX2510 IPS monitor which has an sRGB rating of 99% and has 144hz (I need it because I play a lot of csgo) and also fits my budget. How much of a difference will there be between this panel and my iphone in terms of quality and color accuracy?

I know this is a very dumb question but how much difference would there be between a Benq EX2510 144hz IPS monitor and my iPhone SE (2020) when it comes to photo editing? I normally use my phone for editing instead of my gaming laptop since I feel that it is more accurate but would the Benq be a good option for some occasional lightroom stuff?

The Viewsonic and HP are 30$ cheaper but I wanna know which monitor would be the best choice overall considering I am into gaming as well photo editing.

Hi, My brother recently bought an Zowie BenQ XL2546K and is experiencing some micro stuttering. He had an older ASUS 144hz which worked fine without the stuttering. He mostly plays Valorant. We haven't touched any settings in Windows or the Nvidia drivers, except for turning on 240hz. I don't know if there is something in there I need to change. I thought at first it could be a framrate issue (needing to limit the fps), but it was never a problem with the old 144hz monitor. Specs: Intel i9 10900k GSKILL 32GB DDR4 RAM ASUS Z490-E motherboard ASUS ROG STRIX 3080 OC Adata NVME 1TB Temps are fine on everything Solutions we have tried: - Reinstalling Nvidia drivers, used DDU to remove the old one - Reinstalling Windows 10

I was using my BENQ XL 2546B like normal then suddenly a nearly 1cm horizontal grey line came across the screen, filled with a diagonal pattern, and the image froze, next the panel started to fade to white slowly over about 7secs. During the fade to white I saw a weird thin silhouette about an inch inside of the border of the screen. Attaching an illustration of what I saw.

Hello, I have a Benq Mobiuz EX2510 Connected to a GTX 1660Super Via DP cable. In Nvidia Control Panel I get option of 8bit and 10bit. But if I select 10bit I get weird shadow glitch in Windows settings app. 10Bit gives better gradient rendering but breaks the shadows in settings app which is an eye sore. I have attached Images. Is there anyway to solve this while keeping the shadows and still have 10bit? My monitor has a true 8bit 144hz Panel as per the panel specs here: https://www.panelook.com/M250HAN01.6_AUO_24.5_LCM_parameter_39917.html

Hello! I own a BenQ PD2700U 4K UHD (3840x2160) monitor. Though the monitor is generally great, it has one issue: the image doesn’t fully fit horizontally on the screen, resulting in 2 thin fuzzy strips on the left & right edges of the panel. If I reduce the horizontal resolution from 3840 to 3802, I remove the issue, but the 10-bit color space drops to 8-bit. Is there a way to drop the resolution, and also maintain the 10-bit color space?

I bought a monitor 2 years ago (Benq ZOWIE XL2430 - linked below) which is capable of 144hz @ 1080p. However, since upgrading from Xbox One S to an Xbox Series X, I've discovered the HDMI 1.4 ports on my monitor do not support 120hz @ 1080p (best I can get is 60hz @ 1080p) - only the DisplayPort (DP) and DVI ports on my monitor support 144hz. My question to anyone reading this post: does a cable exist that can connect to an HDMI 2.1 port on the Xbox Series X to a DP/DVI on my monitor (so HDMI 2.1 --> DP or DVI) that allows 144hz. I do not want an adapter as, to the best of my limited knowledge, this will introduce input delays. Will a cable that can do 144hz ever be produced or is this just simply not possible? Does anyone know if this sort of product will be available anytime soon? The monitor was expensive and it now feels like a waste that I can't get the most out of it. Thanks for any help! Monitor: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01H07FVBI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 *UPDATE/SOLUTION* Thanks to @Popa2caps for researching and finding a product that could work. Here is a link to the product: https://www.scan.co.uk/products/club-3d-cac-2330-hdmi-to-displayport-adapter NB: This adapter is also sold on Amazon but Scan was cheaper. £26 inc delivery. For anyone in a similar situation, here’s a few things that I learnt: 1. A passive cable will not be able to adapt a HDMI 2.0 signal from an Xbox Series X/PS5 to a monitor (using DP) to produce 120/144hz. Only an active (powered ie. by USB) adapter can achieve this. 2. Benq were not willing to listen to the complaint I had. Do your research before you purchase a 120/144hz monitor if it’s for use with a console. You are looking for monitor that has HDMI 2.0* ports, although, at the time I’m posting this, there are very few and they are expensive. Some monitors will be advertised as 144hz but will not support this through HDMI, usually DisplayPort or DVI. Don’t make the same mistake I did. 3. Do not buy a DisplayPort to HDMI cable that can transmit 144hz at 1080p. They are not backwards compatible due to how DisplayPort works (something to do with a ‘clock’). They won’t work in reverse. You need a HDMI to DisplayPort adapter. 4. Upgrading and replacing HDMI 1.4 ports on a monitor with HDMI 2.0 ports will not solve this issue. I read something along the lines of ‘even if you upgrade the ports, the chipset associated with the old HDMI 1.4 ports will still only allow 60hz’. 5. Whether or not these adapters introduce delay/latency/lag may vary product to product, however, the adapter I have linked above seems to be ‘transparent’, or as if it wasn’t there in the first place. Call of Duty ran at 120hz and felt smooth and responsive. *in theory, HDMI 1.4 ports can support 144hz at 1080p, however, most manufacturers do not support this functionality (annoyingly).

2 days ago I got a new 1440p 144hz Benq EX2780q monitor, I when I first installed, I struggled for 15 min trying different hdmi cables and hdmi ports (hdmi1, hdmi2), and pulling the plug on/off on the monitor until I got it to work, after I noticed that just slightly touching the hdmi cable may interrupt the signal, and I never seen bios or windows loading with this monitor only when the windows is loaded I can have the chance to receive signal on the next day I got signal when windows loaded today I'm not getting signal anymore I'm using my old monitor now, which doesn't get any of these problems (Benq EW2430) EDIT: I tried connecting it on a samsung laptop (intel CPU no video card) and it always works on the desktop PC I have GTX 1660 super the monitor has FreeSync Premium, could this matter ?

I could not make much sense from the online manual, which is so minimalistic. For nearly $500 this monitor comes with very little instructions.

Is it possible to use 3 monitors for my pc specs My pc specs: -Ryzen 5 3600 -32gb Corsair Vengeance 3200mhz -650w Corsair PSU -RTX 2070 Super 8gb -Samsung evo 500gb and 1tb ssd My GPU has 3 Displayports. 2 of the monitors are 144 hz and my main I want to use is 244hz would this still be ok or would it be too much stress on my gpu.

Hallo So i cannot get my 144 hz to work on my BENQ XL2411. I tried using DVI-D M with 25 pins, where it gives me the option to do 144 hz, but when i do that, the screen is blurry and it says "incorrect cable" I now tried using DVI-D to Displayport and now i don't even have the option to go beyond 60hz, even tho it's dual link. I'am really scrathing my head on this one. And i cannot seam to find the help i need on any previous forum posts. Can you guys help out?

I was looking at a few entry level 75Hz FHD IPS monitors from LG and Benq. The LG monitors (example: 24MK600M) would mention like "2D refresh rate: 75Hz". Benq ones (example: EW2480) had more details like: "3D refresh rate: 75Hz" Please see the photo link below you'll understand better: https://imgur.com/NupDoqY Does 2D 75Hz refresh rate mean I will get 75Hz refresh rate in normal tasks like browsing and classic 2D games like Super Mario and GTA 2 2D? Whereas Benq 3D 75Hz will also give 75Hz refresh rate even in modern games like GTA 5? Kindly clarify if I've misunderstood something. I don't understand it very well. I mean they are NOT 3D monitors. So what does "3D" signify here?

Hi i have a pretty old(dont know exact years tho) BenQ BL2480 that has suddnely decided to only show a black screen and shows no sign of power being fed to it. As far as i've been able to troubleshoot, there is actual current going to the monitor but it continues to show no signs of power( powere button isnt lit up, black screen) I have already tested a few power cables and all show the same, so im pretty sure its not the power cable thats faulty. Does anybody have an idea what could be the cause for no signs of power, and any potential troubleshooting steps or fixes i could try. I know it might just be from old age but im hoping it can be fixed. Thanks in advance
