Is there any difference between the monitors mentioned in the title?

Pretty sure none...one is Zowie branded (which is BenQ's sub brand anyway) and one is BenQ branded

Why are they even selling two different branded versions..?

BenQ is a monitor brand, Zowie is a Esport brand...probably something to do with publicity and if people see Pro's using a brand, they'll probably jump for it as well

The specs look the same but the zowie one doesn't say anything about nvidia 3D so maybe it doesn't have that feature cuz e-sports don't use it? If its cheaper then i'd get the zowie one for sure.

At least blur reduction VT tweaks will still work as long as the Scalar is Mstar 8556T....
