This topic was written by Sultan Al-Qahtani – BenQ introduces a new monitor under the Zowie gaming brand, which has an unparalleled high refresh rate, i.e. 540 Hz.
Therefore, the screen is likely aimed at professional gamers who need the ultimate speed advantage when competing, as this pro gaming claim is reinforced by the screen’s bezels, even though they are only mounted on the left and right side of the screen.
The screen uses a TN panel: the typical contrast ratio is 1000:1 and the brightness is 320 nits/m². The resolution is also 1920 x 1080 pixels, and this low resolution is usually necessary anyway to be able to display video games very smoothly.
This high refresh rate can only be accessed on a PC via DisplayPort 1.4 or HDMI 2.1; The screen can be used on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series Three HDMI 2.1 connections and one DisplayPort 1.4 port are also installed.
An audio output is available, but other features like a USB hub are completely missing. The height of the screen can also be adjusted with special precision and a height chart is also available.
The screen parameters are controlled via an additional controller and there are also different modes, such as movie playback or maximum frames per second.
The monitor can now be pre-ordered in the US for $599. It is scheduled to be launched in the European Union in February.
