Tools to Enhance the Competitive Gaming Experience
COSTA MESA, Calif.
— April 23, 2015 — BenQ America Corp., an internationally renowned
digital lifestyle solutions provider and professional gaming monitor
pioneer, today announced that it is now shipping its flagship XL2730Z
RevolutionEyes(TM) professional gaming monitor. Created to be the
marketplace’s most immersive gaming device, the lightning-quick 27-inch
monitor comes loaded with smooth-action features specifically designed to
give players more comprehensive control over their gaming experience. Now
compatible with AMD’s FreeSync technology, the new performance-driven
display features Gaming Refresh-rate Optimization Management (GROM), a 1ms
GTG response time, and BenQ’s renowned gaming features to offer
competitive gamers the finest, smoothest, and fastest onscreen gaming
experience to date.
The XL2730Z features BenQ’s RevolutionEyes
technology focused on protecting the eyes during extended periods of use.
Equipped with a direct LED-backlight system with ZeroFlicker(TM)
technology, the device eliminates flickering at all brightness levels
reducing eye strain and alleviating computer vision syndrome. When
combined with the device’s built-in Low Blue Light modes, the monitor also
successfully filters the exposure of emitted blue spectrum light —
resulting in more comfortable viewing and longer sessions of competitive
play.
“As the official gaming monitor sponsor of Major League Gaming,
we make it our mission to put the market’s most innovative tools into the
hands of today’s competitive gamers,” said Bob Wudeck, Associate Vice
President, Strategy and Business Development at BenQ America Corp. “In
developing the XL2730Z, BenQ is pushing this philosophy even further,
combining high-speed features such as adaptive-sync, ultra-fast refresh
rates, and BenQ-specific attributes that take gaming to the next level.”
BenQ’s XL2730Z monitor features 27 inches of 2560 x 1440 WQHD resolution,
a TN panel, 144Hz refresh rate, and 1ms GTG response time to take
fast-action gaming to an entirely new level. Now equipped with a GROM
system and supporting adaptive-sync variable refresh-rate technology with
AMD’s FreeSync graphics card, the XL2730Z gives players the freedom to
customize their gaming experience by tweaking viewing preferences
including refresh rates (100/120/144Hz), display resolutions, and screen
sizes. For an even smoother gaming experience, the monitor uses BenQ’s
Motion Blur Reduction 2.0 to render all fast-moving images fluidly without
tearing or ghosting anywhere across the screen.
With the newly
improved Black eQualizer 2.0, the XL2730Z is also able to detect the input
source and automatically adjust the amount of brightness in the game
within a range selected by the user. As a result, players can identify
targets effortlessly and react quickly to any in-game situation without
taking time out for manual adjustments. Using the Auto Game Mode setting,
the monitor automatically detects the genre of the game being played and
matches it to its preset color, while a “Game Mode to Go” feature allows
gamers to save game modes onto a USB flash drive for quick and easy
transportation.
To deliver optimal gameplay, gamers can choose from 20
preset levels of color vibrancy to meet specific viewing requirements.
Using Display mode, users can also select from eight different screen
sizes while Smart Scaling provides the flexibility to freely scale screen
content to any custom measurement. To mimic the gaming experience of
legendary gamers, the XL2730Z’s Game Mode Loader lets users choose from a
wide selection of professional presets, while Display Pilot offers
convenient onscreen display adjustments and instant access to several
integrated features. Equipped with BenQ’s S Switch, the monitor’s external
hardware switch gives players a better grip on changing between auto game
modes and customized settings.
Now shipping, BenQ’s XL2730Z is
available at a retail price of $599. More information on BenQ’s full line
