BenQ XL2410 120Hz 3D LED official thread

Shetlander · 11 Feb 2011 at 10:31

I am hopefully going to receive my third replacement today. Its not a brand new one but should have been checked over by there service department. If I'm not happy with the backlight on this I want my money back.
I've also just ordered the Asus to compare it with. It will be interesting to see them side by side.

1) With a VGA to HDMI converter could I link my laptop (in addition to my
desktop) to use Picture-by-Picture? (do any other 120hz screens have PBP?)

2) My 2233rz is currently awaiting an exchange under warranty (for the second time in a week as the company samsung use are awful), which I may then sell...is this BenQ screen a worthwhile replacement/upgrade?

Shetlander - are you RMAing direct with OCUK or with BenQ? Also, how long after buying the monitor did you begin the RMA process. The backlight bleed and 3D performance on my unit simply isn't up to scratch but it's been a couple of months since purchasing now ..

To use PBP you need to have one input to the monitor as HDMI and one input as either DVI or VGA.

Got mine today and I have to say I'm impressed, I thought it will be worse quality.Nice LCD tho and I'm quite happy I bough it.No bleeding, sharp and clean picture.
The only one thing I don't like so far - there is no button to quick change of picture mode like in Samsung Monitors.

Im abit late in reply but i saw your post in another thread about why u like the asus over the benq and u convinced me to keep my asus

But then again if i got the benq instead of the asus then i prob be wondering if i should have went with the asus

I remember having had problems getting it to accept anything more than 1024x768 resolution @ 120hz when I initially purchased my BenQ XL2410T monitor. Reinstalling drivers for it don't seem to work.

Either way, I need to know how, since I snapped up one of the Asus 6950 1Gb Direct CU II for £162 that OCUK were doing yesterday. Replaced my Asus 6850.

Behaving identically on both DVI ports, only one of which (I think) is a dual head port.

Bleh.

Anyone any clues?

Do O/clockers still stock these? Time for an upgrade here.

PCM2 · 5 Jan 2012 at 15:49

Pending the imminent release of the XL2420T these have been discontinued.

it was imminent a few weeks ago

Hopefully they are out soon.

Yes I know.

BenQ says 26th Jan now for the UK. Which means just after Valentine's day.

Have they moved valentines day to January this year? This is important now!

PCM2 · 6 Jan 2012 at 08:28

It means expect further delays and don't hold your breath.

Deception · 6 Jan 2012 at 09:44

Screw cards and chocolate.. I want a monitor!

I just hope my supplier has them in on the 12th, like they said they are. Although payday on 26th, so all is good!

I just got one of these and was advised to instead get the XL2420 which I was considering doing by using DSR and sending this one back.

I've tried it out though, and can't seem to see any problems that make me question the quality, the backlight bleed doesn't seem to be bad, but then I don't know how bad is bad.

One thing I did notice, when moving around in a FPS (TheHunter) the trees seemed to jerk with your movement, it didn't feel fluid. But I had forgot about it after a while, so I wonder if its just what happens..?

Does anyone still use one of these monitors and can share their opinions?

I'm also trying to get the best settings possible so I can make a fair judgement on it before I decide to DSR it. Could someone share some good settings? I'm using a Nvidia card so have access to the Nvidia colour settings also.

Cheers
David
