Overview
Not a colorful all-rounder, the BenQ Zowie esports monitor uses a Fast TN panel and DyAc blur reduction to keep moving targets sharp. Native Full HD at a very high refresh rate suits competitive shooters.
Motion clarity is the reason to buy it, since DyAc and fast pixel response cut blur in fast aim. The Full HD resolution matches what most pro players use. Color, contrast and viewing angles are weaker than IPS or OLED, so it is a poor fit for creative work.
Who it's for
Esports and fast FPS players on capable PCs will see the benefit. Casual gamers and creators should consider IPS or OLED monitors.
Pros and cons
- Extremely high refresh
- DyAc blur reduction
- Full HD only
- TN viewing angles
- Single HDMI port
Performance notes
Very high refresh shortens the time each frame stays on screen, and DyAc strobes the backlight to cut blur further. Reaching the top refresh needs a GPU pushing matching frame rates. TN colors shift when viewed off center.
