The BenQ ZOWIE XL2566X+ is a monitor designed with a very specific audience in mind. Unlike many premium gaming displays that attempt to balance gaming, content creation, and entertainment, this monitor focuses almost entirely on competitive esports performance. With a 400Hz refresh rate, Fast TN panel, and the latest DyAc 2 motion clarity technology, it aims to provide professional and aspiring esports players with every possible advantage.
After spending time with the monitor in fast-paced shooters such as Counter-Strike 2, it becomes clear why ZOWIE displays remain a common sight at major esports tournaments around the world.
2DyAc 2 Takes Motion Clarity to Another Level
Refresh rate alone does not guarantee a competitive advantage. Motion clarity plays an equally important role, and this is where BenQ’s DyAc 2 technology shines.
During testing, moving targets remained significantly sharper during fast camera movements compared to conventional gaming monitors. In Counter-Strike 2, enemy outlines remained easier to track while strafing, making it simpler to maintain focus during intense engagements.
The combination of the Fast TN panel and DyAc 2 technology helps reduce motion blur and unwanted afterimages that can distract players during critical moments. The result is a cleaner image that allows players to react more confidently when every millisecond matters.
For many competitive gamers, DyAc 2 is likely to be the monitor’s most valuable feature and one of the primary reasons to choose it over alternative high-refresh-rate displays.
