BenQ's new XL2420G doesn't look much different than their other XL series monitors... but it does have a few standout features.

Was going to sleep, but then came a video

Thanks nic

Watched the video, good one, but the product is not relavant to me.

Even though im a amd rig, i would look more the the rog swift 2 if it comes because i would like lots of fps in games like csgo and bf4 but would still like to enjoy the resolution for other games.

But that leads me to another point, i dont know if there ever will be a perfect monitor for me, i want ips colors and viewing angles, but want tn quickness, and amoled power usage, ect. So i dont know if there ever will be the perfect monitor for me, but i think that a 1440p gsync ips monitor would be my go to, or even 4k (when i get rig upgrades, when i get a gtx 1070ti x3 or r12 495 i will likely get a monitor to go with it.

Typed all this on my ipod so srry for errors

Haven't there been like 5 different XL2420 monitors now? I think it's time for a name change...

 

Thanks for the video though Nick

[Kevinkt]

I forgot about Aero-Shake so I tried reading text while shaking a window  and it closed my video

HHGre.gg/lg-linus does not appear to work.

 

Edit: Nevermind. It is case sensitive?

[Tedster]

Thanks Nick!

I think we all think that the ROG Swift is superior though.

I don't quite understand why have g-sync on a 144 Hz monitor.

When the intervals between refreshes are that short a frame is displayed very close to when it's done being rendered anyway. Especially if we're talking e-sports titles, which typically can be easily run at very high frame rates at 1080p.

Yep shortened links are always case sensitive (as far as I know at least).

[XTankSlayerX]

Hope my articles are good

 

 Thanks for the video nick

I can't wait for variable refresh tech to become affordable. I think it's super neat, I'm just not willing to drop a few hundred extra bucks on it.

Wow... Advertising kitchens in a LTT video, we have truly gone full circle.

I think pls will solve the issue, it has for me when I had to get a new monitor. Got the PB278q and never looked back.

Now we just need kitchen giveaways.

Exactly the monitor I've been looking for basically since G sync was a thing,1080p, 144hz, 1ms, G-sync but it's 650$?

It's hard to convince this over the XL2420Z with only half the price and minus G-Sync, unless you are some diehard nvidia fanboy 

[Si3Rra_7]

Meanwhile i just got a bl2710pt ... Damnit , would have gone with this

[Napper198]

I'm seriously considering to click the buy button right now.

 

All I wanted was a 24" 1080p-ish G-Sync Monitor with good horizontal viewing angles to accompany my Eizo CX240 which does not look like garbage and/or set me back another 800€.

Well thanks to BenQ I got exactly what I wanted for only 369€ (at the time of writing this post). Now that's a nice Christmas present.

 

Now I only need to find the money for it  :lol:

[fishy]

hmm

here, this monitor is half the price of ROG swift, so i don't see the price to be too high on BenQ, 370€ compared to 740€

heck, it's the cheapest G-Sync monitor we can buy will be able to buy here

[Rev]

Why wont you try another gaming monitor with higher refresh rate? let's say 240Hz and tell us what you think.

 

 

 

 

 

hint: EIZO FORIS FG2421 :3

[...) hint: EIZO FORIS FG2421 :3

 

 

 

Unfortunaly that one only has an 120 Hz input that gets upscaled to 240 Hz, so no gain here.

 

In fact I'm not even sure if 240 Hz is even a thing on digital interfaces, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.
