amazing monitor, for gaming you really can’t beat it for the price. 360hz with basically zero artifacts will leave you thinking you can see into the future- because you literally can see earlier than a lower hz monitor. color accuracy is definitely questionable, i have another monitor with much better colors for sure, but if you wanna play counter strike or other competitive shooters and you aren’t made of money this is the one to get. pros were using it a year ago for a reason.

No missing parts, easy setup, very customizable with picture and display settings. Overall great monitor for competitive fps games Read more
This monitor requires a lot of tweaking for whatever you want out of it. It can achieve great colors but you will constantly have to use the s-switch to change settings for each application. I was considering this and the PG27AQN and I believe I will be sticking with this. The motion clarity is just too good to sacrifice for the 1440p/360hz/IPS/ULMB 2 combination. I have a PG279Q which was the highest end monitor at the time of release and 1440p is good, but it's not as clear as 4k and that leaves something to be desired (I have a 4k 144hz). Games like Starfield are extra crisp with the motion clarity, as well as D4/D2R, RDR2, Cyberpunk, etc. 1080p is definitely not great in games but at the time being it is the only way to get the most out of today's motion clarity technology. EDIT: Just tried the PG27AQDM, and while I have it set up right next to the XL2566k, I will be keeping the latter. The OLED of the first is obviously top tier and great, but I cannot live without the motion clarity despite the poor viewing angles. Read more
Was very exciting about BenQ XL2566X+ and the monitor has a hardware defect. The screen randomly shows colored glitch lines and pixel corruption on both DP and HDMI, even at 60Hz. Symptoms: • The screen suddenly turns into colorful stripes • It lasts for 2–3 seconds and then recovers by itself and continues! • After recovery the image becomes blurry and color fading away • Issue appears on all inputs (DP and HDMI) • I tested different DP cables and different DP ports on my GPU • My GPU works perfectly with my other monitor (Alienware AW2721D), so the graphics card is not the problem Read more

Color accuracy? No. Viewing angles? not really. Refresh rate? Insane. Somehow it was plug and play with 600 hz, I didn't even need to mess with windows settings. That's not to say you won't have to. The only issue i had was getting my games to accept that it was going to be my main monitor. I also have an LG OLED (240hz). no amount of messing with settings fixed the issue, but unplugging my OLED's DP cable and restarting did the trick. I was then able to plug the OLED back in and everything functioned how i wanted. It's insanely good for FPS games especially CS2. i swear DYAC2 on premium is like some kind of black magic when it comes to reducing motion blur. With the premium setting their is some very slight overshoot in the UFO test, However I don't notice it in game. Putting Dyac2 on high (ironically... that is the lowest setting) eliminated the over shoot in testing, but does not have the same motion clarity as premium; that change is somewhat noticeable in game. compared to my OLED (240 hz) This monitor has noticeably better motion clarity. but some artifacts that affect image quality. On paper objectively it should be a way better monitor than 240 HZ OLED. however as far as Subjective/qualitative it is easily noticeable in testing, but in game vs the OLED its not all that game changing. value: If you're comparing this to a 480hz OLED which are currently at the same price point of 1000 $ USD the OLED is going to be a much better monitor overall only slightly falling behind in blur reduction. But not in a game changing way. I can't with a clean conscious say that this monitor is the answer for anybody really; except for Professional level players, and that's not because I think it's a better choice. The only reason it's the answer for pro level competitors is standardization of setup, because its what the tournament organizers have been using for years and will likely continue to use for the foreseeable future. if you're going to spend 1000 USD on a monitor Get OLED unless you're a pro level FPS competitor that goes to LANs regularly; then get the Zowie to make the online and Lan experience as 1:1 as possible.
