BenQ - ZOWIE XL2566K 24.5" TN LED Gaming Monitor (HDMI/DP) - Black

Fps/competitive players top pick. BenQs features such as dyac give motion clarity from a range of 100-360hz, helping with tracking and full body movement scenarios. Other features like Black equalizer lighten up dark spots on maps, more useful in csgo and CoD than in valorant, but I still appreciate it. Completely adjustable with height and swivel with measurements to record and a small base allows for more posture configurations for keyboard mouse. 5/5 experience

Amazing motion clarity and response times. The colors are defintiely vibrant enough for competitive gaming. The only downside I found with this monitor is the coil whine. There is a very noticeable coil whine at 360 and 240 hz but not at 144. Ended up using hotkey resolution changer to lower refresh rate to 144hz for desktop use. If you are sensitive to coil whine, get a different monitor or use HRC.

I went from a 27" 270hz 1440p monitor to this. Sure it's not as beautiful as that monitor, but that is not the target audience of this monitor. I found myself only really playing competitive titles like CS GO and Valorant, and for that purpose this monitor cannot be beat! The motion clarity is absolutely insane with Dyac+ Premium, better than any monitor I've ever owned or seen with my eyes. Colors out of the box were off, but doing a quick color calibration made this a non issue. People who complain about this being 24.5 inches, 1080p, or having a TN panel obviously do not know the target audience and have never owned or used this monitor. It's hard to describe, you literally have to experience it to understand.

Dyac mode is amazing! See the enemies with really good clarity! This is monitor is nicly built. Performance is amazing. TN panel does look good. I feel like $600 is alot of an TN panel

360Hz is objectively faster and smoother than 240Hz, but subjectively it’s not really worth the upgrade. The monitor and features are well thought out - like the external puck controller which makes it super easy to change settings quickly. DyAc+ doesn’t really make that much of a difference on vs off.

Amazing quality. Must have for competitive gaming. All business

Out of all the 240 and 360 monitors out there, the XL2566K will give you the clearest picture. While some of the new 240hz OLED monitors technically have faster GTG times, they lack black frame insertion. Zowie's implementation of BFI, known as DYAC, is easily the best out there. As a result, the XL2566K currently handles motion better then any monitor out there, including the new 500hz Alienware.

I mainly play tac fps games like csgo/valorant and was wondering if 360hz would be a noticeable upgrade from the xl2546k. Didn't realize that I had launch options in csgo that force 240hz so at first I didn't notice much, then switched the option to -freq 360 and just wow. Motion is even more fluid then the 240hz, and the response times are insane. A big plus for me also is im able to use the dyac on this panel, where as on the xl2546k I was not able to, if I had it on for 15 minutes and my eyes would get dry. This is not the case for me on the xl2566k. 100% would buy again.
