Eizo Foris FG2421

Hey guys,

 

Is the upgraded 240Hz on the Eizo Foris FG2421 any special? Is it worth choosing over the BenQ XL2430T?

 

Thanks

[Laederem]

no

and its not 240hz either

[X_Rated_Box]

Nope.

Its the same with gaming chairs

It's fake 240hz.

It is not true 240Hz. I think it is 120Hz and they double each frame or put black frame between each frame... simmilary to how TV works.

Nope information mention is wrong.

If the small 16:9 size isnt an issue for you - then its a really unique kick ass monitor actually.

 

High contrast, better blacks than ANY LCD out there, and very low motion blur. But you`ll never get gsync on something like this.

It's 120hz with black frame insertion.  It's not true 240 hz.

Also it's a panel lottery, because the FG2421 is using parts that didn't pass QA for their much more expensive satellite panel (the $4,000 panel). So getting one with decent quality and not excessive cross hatching or gamma/color defects is a pretty big lottery.  IF you can get a pristine panel or one that is decent, it's a pretty nice panel.

 

The 2430T is a more solid pick overall.  And you are not limited to 120hz (I think the FG2421 can actually strobe as low as 105hz but I know it can NOT do 100hz single strobe; that was tested already by chief blur buster).  The 2430T (ignore the 2420T typo--that's a MUCH older panel--oops) (and all of Benq's blur reduction monitors before the XL2730Z--its full capabilities are still unknown as of the new firmware that just came ou tfor it) can single strobe from 60hz to 144 hz in 1 hz increments with VT tweaks (76hz is unstable with VT tweaks).

I'm looking at you on my XL2430T. It's amazing! Need to get used to resetting the colors myself tho. But the 144Hz... .HOT DAMN!
