New Monitor recommendation?
Most pro gaming leagues play on 24-25” 1080p 240Hz+. I believe RLCS uses the BenQ Zowie XL2566X+. It’s 400 Hz which is a little overkill for non-pros so I reckon a nice 240Hz would be fine, also cheaper

is BenQ ZOWIE XL2540K the best 240 hz esport\comp monitor ??
Have you ever tried one? The motion clarity is unparalleled. I’ve had 144hz IPS, 144hz TN, 360hz TN and 360hz OLED. I’m sticking with TN for the foreseeable future. It really depends on what games you play and what you’re looking for in a monitor. But TN + DyAc is pretty gangster for e-sports motion

390hz IPS or 240hz TN DyAc ?
I used the XV252QF, then switched to the XL2546K, which I'm currently still using - mainly for FPS games. When using the BenQ XL2546K with DyAc on, I notice better clarity, especially during sharp flicks. Everything appears much clearer compared to the XV252QF. That said, both monitors are perfectly

400hz TN monitor (zowie 2566x+) and having SEVERE shimmering problems with all graphic settings ingame on very low
I have an xl2546k (240hz TN) and have no issues. 1728x1080 resolution, everything in game very low. Monitor settings are brightness 20, blackEQ 15, colour vibrance 20, sharpen 8, contrast 60, gamma 2, default colour temperature. Everything is clear and smooth.

Where to test a lot of varied computer monitors NOT BEST BUY?
Personally, I'd recommend the MSI MPG 321URX OLED is the general way to go for G2G and MPRT speeds. IPS and Mini-LED are generally considered second-best and a bit brighter. Alternatively, if you want to go way overboard, look at what pro FPS players use, like CSGO or CS2. They demand the highest mo

Monitor Recommendation needed
This is all my personal opinion, so take this with a grain of salt. 24" is plenty for CS. I think all but a handful of pros use 24/25" monitors. Anything over 27" is just straight up gross IMO. As for panel tech, outright avoid cheap IPS, TN, or any VA panel. They suck. I had a 32" Asus curved monit

Is upgrading from XL2546K (240Hz) to XL2566X or XL2586X worth it if I already get 700+ FPS?
Xl2546k is still a beast, there is something I like about its colors in fps1 mode, not accurate but I like the red and bright green, I feel like I can feel slightly input lag with with xl2546k with dyac+ but I don't think I can tell input lag with dyac2 on xl2586x, the 540-600hz tn from zowie is the

What’s a good monitor for CS?
I use XL2546K and it really doesn’t get any better then that for cs2 then zowie. Yes i used a oled and many other monitors before and the zowie definitley clears it. Depending on your FPS get any of the zowie ones just don’t get the one without dyac as no point.

Realmente importa el setup gamer, monitor y los fps? (Shooter)
Al contrario, mayor el nivel competitivo, mayor es el setup que necesitas para marcar diferencia. Ya se mostro la diferencia de nivel que hay con un monitor de 240hz a uno de 540hz para el competitivo en fps. Mientras mas rapido y fluido puedas ver al otro haciendo un shoulder peek, mas posibilidade
