In fact, to get the most out of the latest first-person shooter (FPS) games, sports, racing, and other fast-action games, not only will you need a gaming PC with a powerful graphics solution, a monitor that can display the action without subjecting you to blurred images, flicker, tearing, and other motion artifacts is an absolute must.

 

This is where BenQ, a professional gaming monitor pioneer and one of the world’s leading human technology and solutions provider, steps in.

Its gaming monitors offer a well-balanced choice between image quality, image response time, power consumption and screen size, thus delivering a smooth and immersive gaming experience. 

 

BenQ entered the competitive gaming monitor market in 2006, with a commitment to take eSports to the next level.

The refresh rate being better, the gaming experience automatically transcends to the next level.

The flagship product of the XL Series, the XL2730Z, goes the extra mile, offering the finest, smoothest and fastest gaming performance with QHD resolution for the most detailed images, 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms GTG response time, and Motion Blur Reduction to support fast-action gaming. Besides, it comes with the VESA DisplayPort Adaptive-Sync for minimized tearing and stuttering.
