BenQ XL2730Z 27 Inch for 1440p Freesync

[Nik Balor]

Is Benq XL2730Z 27 inch good for HDR gaming on 1440p 144hz with amd RX vega 56 ?!

Depends on price. But yes, it is good if you are just gaming, personaly I would avoid TN if possible though.

I would go for IPS but most of the IPS monitors have slightly higher response time . TN is better when it comes to response time . what would you choose better colors or lower response time ?!

Just ignore the respone time advertised number... it is meaningless.

then what is the best IPS monitor with 1440p 144hz ?!

if just for gaming , IPS panels claim a 4ms response time, TN can be as low as 1ms. this is why TN panels still dominate in the gaming arena, since the quicker response response time makes for a far clearer picture when there is fast movement on-screen.

And that is not true. The advertised response time speeds are GTG and that means nothing when you play a game.

Most of the high refresh rate IPS panels have as low actual response time as most TN panels. Also, IPS panels have quite a bit lower input lag than TN panels.

As to which monitor OP should pick... idk. I think that QNIX has some nice high Hz IPS Free-Sync monitors but I have not tried them.

I own a xl2720z, 1440p 144hz freesync, I went for the TN panel for 1 ms response time.

Then I upgrade my GPU to a 1080ti, I bought a Predator XB271HU 1440p 165hz Gsync monitor, it is a IPS panel with 4ms response time.  To be honest, I never notice any difference between 1ms and 4ms.  But the image quality on these two panels are drastically different. Personally, I will pick a IPS panel anyday for now.
