Upgraded from an old 60 hz monitor to a 144 hz monitor was a really big game changer for me. And right as you turn this monitor on you can already see the difference on how smooth the mouse cursor moves around the screen. But enough about the transition.

The XL2411 has a slightly asymmetric design, with a chunkier bezel on the bottom right corner which houses the downward-facing buttons for the on-screen display. Apart from this, the bezels are of moderate thickness on all four sides, making this monitor less than ideal for multi-monitor setups.

The best monitor you can buy under ~450$, I've never had any problems with it.Playing on a 144hz is just beautiful and you feel like everything is way quicker, it changes the way you play. BUY IT!!

-Doesn't reflects light; High refresh rate; Perfect ColorSync; Really polyvalent; Perfect size

-Heavy -None

Make sure to calibrate the monitor when you get it as the factory settings are a little crap - and to get the full 144hz experience you will need to use the display cable it provides. And then it is just fantastic. Lots of manoeuvrability and incredibly smooth. Once you go 144hz you don't go back.

Very Poor colors and not impressed at all with this monitor.

Broke within a month of having it kept getting really hot and turn off then just didn't turn back on!

Zowie, popular for its gaming peripherals, most notably for its mice which are well respected among gaming pros, was quietly incorporated into BenQ in late 2015. Since then, BenQ has re-released a number of its more gamer-oriented screens under the Zowie brand.

Very nice look, from a great e-sports brand. However, the limitation of not supporting display port (even with an adapter) means it is not always fit for 144 hz. Comes with HDMI and DVI-I cables.

REVIEW – Without a doubt, the two most important components of a good gaming system are the video card and the monitor. The monitor is what gamers are looking at while playing, and the video card is what renders the games on the monitor.

Great set of features; like the Black eQualizer; especially for this price point; High refresh rate; low response time; Solid base; flexible arm for adjusting the panel

Improved default color settings; Studier cable management system
