No FreeSync or GSync it's 1080p BOOOO and only 144hz at 4ms while not being IPS!

HowAmII am not trying to sound rude, because I am genuinely asking because I have not found any so far. Are there any IPS 144hz 4ms gaming monitors out there? Last I checked, the Predator is 60hz. IPS has not been very synonymous with gaming until recently. Generally you want TN panels, but VA is the happy medium for graphics and response time.

HowAmIHe was more than likely meaning Ultrawide. Both Acer and Asus have panels that may "overclock" to 100hz. Acer has announced the x34-P, which is supposed to come native at 100hz so you don't have to hope you get a display that overclocks to 100hz.

HowAmIThank you. I will take a look at those. In the meantime, here is a Youtube review of the XR3501.
Spec-wise and on paper, there will always be what sound like better products out there. Samsung had a 240hz refresh rate "gaming" monitor for a while yet it did not out-perform our XL series monitors with just 144hz. Once again, thanks for this info and I will do more research :)

HowAmIThat's a 27" 1440p monitor that isn't Ultrawide and are in a different category. Gaming at 2560X1080 on a 35" monitor @ 144hz is amazing. Now that resolution with browsing the web/desktop applications does have it's drawbacks. I think you're the only idiot here at the moment.

solBLACKYou're the [individual] saying gaming on 1080p is better than 1440p. 2560 x 1080 is a wanna be 1440p. For the same price you can get the FAR better 1440p 27" 165hz Gsync IPS monitor. 1440p TN is still better than a 1440p 1080p IPS monitor.

HowAmIHe's saying that the 27'' 1440p monitor you just mentioned -is not an ultrawide.- He also said gaming on a 1080p, 144hz -ultrawide- is amazing. He never said 1080p gaming is better than 1440p, he said 1080p ultrawide gaming is amazing. You're just being incredibly dense for some reason.

HowAmIHowAMI, I understand and respect your input regarding what you feel are good specs. I can appreciate you comparing other models so that others are informed in their purchase decision. However, we are a very reputable company which our products are always ranking in the top 3. Of course not every product we make will be gold, but we also pride ourselves in providing products that are word of mouth more so than spamming television commercials with our products every 2 minutes. Thank you for your input and I hope we can earn your business in the future :)

HowAmII am a real BenQ employee. Feel free to visit our website, give us a call, and ask for me. I would actually love to speak with you verbally as you do have quite a bit to say about this industry. We also have a few employees here who deal with sponsorships and are ex professional gamers who can give you a lot of insight on our products. I am always open to knowing more about the competition and sending feedback up to the appropriate parties. Have a great day :)

HowAmII also think that this monitor isn't that great for its price, but I believe everyone has a different point of view when it comes to certain products and everyone has the rights to buy anything with their own money. Some might agree with you and some won't. That's how the world works, its filled with competition and opinions. Most importantly is that if you're happy with your product then that's all it matters. It's not a big deal really, you could have just started a friendly casual discussion/conversation or just stop after making a statement... but your anger clearly took over. It's a fucking monitor, chill. Stop bashing on people and on ShaneJ, he's just doing his job.

ShaneJI don't do verbal speaking. "Professional gamers" are idiots they aren't professionals nor do they even know how to build a computer. How about this for the same price of your monitors not only do I get FreeSync or Gync I gets an IPS panel at a higher refresh rate and a higher resolution[Moderated].

HowAmINo, I do believe you can verbally have a conversation with someone since you have very strong opinions. I recommend calling BenQ and asking to speak with a rep so you can calm down. Listen I understand your saying that there's better value monitors out there but everyone has different tastes dude. Also it might be significantly cheaper to buy this monitor in different countries, here on massdrop because of import fees, shipping, local economy, etc. [Moderated]

Luka_MegurineIt won't be cheaper in other countries as they get taxed that's why you don't see people in the US saying they're having to Spend 1200 X currency to buy a 1080 or whatever GPU.

HowAmIPretty sure most AIB partner's manufacture their cards in the US, so there's no import fee in the states but overseas, cards are more expensive because of the tax and import fees raising the prices on cards to inaccessible prices and massdrop being the middle man actually gets them a better discount (I see this on MD all the time). Plus a 780ti and a 4790k is all a professional gamer needs to play counter strike and league of legends, I mean do you see pro gamers playing Crisis 3? No of course they don't play graphically demanding single player titles or run workloads that demand more than 4 cores or a Titan X to get the job done. In all honesty that setup used to be high end but is now mainstream, never was it enthusiast but high end and when considering older titles still a high end setup.

May I ask why you would even bring a false information to back up your statement that this is a bad monitor from the first place? Where did you find 1K from? Even if you didn't mention Massdrop, we're talking here at Massdrop since they're offering here. I've also mentioned that no other website or stores are selling this monitor for 1K. Where are your sources coming from?

This monitor isn't even an IPS monitor so it obviously shows our lack of knowledge about monitors. Even the LG 60hz 1440p monitors have better price and performance value. [moderated]

HowAmII feel sad for you... being all defensive for no reason. You do realize that Kitty made a clear statement and the fact that she won't even respond to you or care what you think and yet here you are "offended", had to respond back with something that has nothing to do with Kitty anymore. You missed the whole point here. You might have not started this dead thread, but you did bring someones name up in a rude way when that person, Kitty, hasn't said anything against you for 18 weeks. I scrolled up and I can see that Kitty also agrees with you that this monitor doesn't have a good spec compared to other monitors for its price. So what's the point of mentioning to Kitty about " 1440p at 144hz on a 27" monitor will have a better PPI ratio and gives back better color than an overpriced piece of shit monitor. [moderated] "? I believe Kitty hasn't said anything against your view about the monitor for 18 weeks, and neither brought your name or said anything rude about you either? You did technically started for her since you brought a 3rd party into your argument. All she asked was you to leave her alone...
WHY are you so LOST? You're all over the place man!!! I get it, it's the internet and you can be an asshole, but fix your moral principles, please. Relax dude, no one cares and don't respond to me either cause I don't care about your opinions about the monitor either (I'm not gonna even respond to you either after) and I already know you're going to be triggered after reading this and the fact that you must write something back lol.
