TN.. what to say more..
You must not be a gamer or maybe you just missed the part where it says "E-sports". It's a gaming monitor for hardcore's who want fast response times and the least amount of ghosting possible "among other things". It's not for starbucks drinking leg crossing panel snob hipsters. You know the type, desperate creepy guy who pull out his latest iphone whenever an attractive girl is around. Not saying that's the image I get looking at your picture or anything. Gaming monitor for gaming. Common sense, get some.

solocreep is right i own a 2k ultrawide ips monitor and a 2k tn monitor 165 hz, and TN monitor are just fine with the colors and the response time is so fast and movement is so much more fluid on high refresh rate. i enjoy game on the 2k ultra wide ips 60 hertz as well, but for shooters online its so much better to play on the tn with high refresh rate

feel free to refer to SoloCreeps first response. if you can't get the fact these monitors have a very specific user in mind, namely gamers who above all else want high refresh rates and the fastest response times they can get, then you are an idiot. we all know there are monitors with better colour reproduction, better viewing angles, and a higher pixel density. you need to let it go.

just because you cannot doesn't mean that others cannot. clearly this is a waste of all of our time trying to explain this to you, so i am done. enjoy being ignorant.

All this aside why would someone get this monitor for e-sports when there are 240hz monitors out there that in that professional setting would be far better since the lower latency and more Hz the monitor gives.

Same I own an AOC AGON AG271QG and there is no ghosting on these IPS 165HZ Gsync monitors.

Yep it's good for obsolete tech with shitty colors i guess but technology goes ahead and something like this: Samsung G70 27" FHD 2ms VA 144Hz Quantum Dot LED Ah yes it has 2ms response time ie 500fps not 1000fps like bench above, prolly you can differentiate 500 from 1000.. Regards from hipster with iphone 8XX and 3-4 paid whores atm.. 🙂
Do you own that monitor? Is there a G-Sync version (I can't find one at the market I usually buy my tech from)? I'm curious because I'm considering an upgrade and VA's great contrast seems like a good fit to me. I think people severely underestimate how much contrast contributes to image quality. I would prefer 1440p but I see that 1440p 144Hz VA are really rare; if you add in G-Sync they're impossible to find. Also the idea the guys were emphasizing on is indeed ghosting; but I don't understand why they're being so rude about it. I think the point comes from the fact that many IPS monitors are pretty unusable at 144Hz due to their sluggish response time; I remember seeing some LG IPS review recently and the thing was doing ok at 120Hz but atrocious at 144.

I think you all are missing the point. The real value in the benq monitor is low persistence. If you have never had a low persistence monitor then you probably don't understand how much of a difference it makes. I get that a TN panel sucks but a proper low persistence panel is hard to find. I would take a 1080p/144hz LP panel before I'd buy a 4k/60hz display.

Tn is not so baad anymore, one m8 bought a cheap monitor and it didnt look off., but still Its no IPS or VA when it comes to color/angles..
