BenQ XL2540 24.5"

The BenQ ZOWIE XL2540 24.5″ 240Hz PC e-Sports Monitor is a great monitor to be sure, and it outputs a nice high quality picture. However the smaller than I’m used to size really did play a lot on my use of the monitor. For games it wasn’t enough, but movies it was great. The BenQ ZOWIE XL2540 24.5″ 240Hz PC e-Sports Monitor is not a main monitor to be sure, but a nice little side monitor for other projects.

Ultimately, it boils down to the player at how he wants to experience the game and the BenQ ZOWIE XL2540 esports monitor is the gateway into the experiencing the most fluid gaming experience ever. At $500 or Php27700 locally, its a premium product but if you’re playing at the big leagues and you want every bit of an advantage, displays dont get anymore fluid than 240hz and the BenQ ZOWIE XL2540 esports monitor manages to deliver in both color and performance.

For e-sports competitors, as well as professional and enthusiast gamers, the BenQ Zowie XL2540 is a remarkable monitor that can truly transform your gameplay – but at a price. If you’re not a pro gamer, there’s little that will appeal to you here.

The BenQ Zowie XL2540 is a monitor steeped in esports pedigree, so much so that it sacrifices versatility for its single-minded pursuit of competitive excellence. While a perfect fit for tournaments, enthusiasts are going to have be obsessed over titles such as Overwatch, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Dota 2, or League of Legends before they even consider jotting this down in their buying list. Those that fit the bill, however, will have plenty to enjoy once it arrives at their doorstep.

There are definitely cheaper 24-inch displays out there. However, at the core of the XL2540 experience, lies a commitment to quality over quantity. And if you’re looking for a quality gaming experience that puts you ahead of the competition, this is one monitor not worth passing over lightly.

The XL2540 offers unique features that cater to its niche but demanding gaming audience.

The XL2540 should become the new best monitor for anyone playing fast-paced, competitive games at a high level. If your PC is powerful enough, you'll see a definite benefit thanks to the gorgeously smooth 240Hz refresh rate. The other little touches, like the side wings, OSD controller and plethora of gaming-specific modes all add value too. This monitor won't suit everyone due to its high price and relatively low resolution, but if you're serious about your gaming then the XL2540 could be the most essential weapon in your arsenal.

The Zowie XL2540 e-sports monitor makes an excellent choice for both professional and casual gamers, thanks to its design and features. It definitely comes as a boon for e-sports FPS games like CS:GO and Overwatch, where framerate can play a highly crucial role for the player. However, the monitor’s high cost can make a dent in your wallet. And the problem with having a 240 Hz monitor is that you need a powerful rig to get that high a framerate, and presently the maximum framerate I’ve seen on most games is about 150 FPS (with a few exceptions). So if you’re a competitive gamer and are planning to get this monitor, you definitely have some thinking to do.
