BenQ’s RL2455HM console gaming monitor is engineered specifically for fast-paced first-person shooter (FPS) games.

Enhanced with features such as Motion Blur Reduction 2.0 and Black eQualizer 2.0, BenQ’s XL2430T panel is made to push on-screen performances even further — detecting the input source and automatically adjusting the amount of brightness in the game within the range selected by the user. As a result, players can identify targets effortlessly and react quickly to any in-game situation without taking a time out for manual adjustments. Clocking-in at an impressive 1-ms GTG response time, the XL2420Z monitor features a gaming refresh rate up to 144 HZ, optimization management (GROM), Motion Blur Reduction, Black eQualizer, Display Mode, Smart Scaling, and much more.
