ZOWIE DyAc 3 is coming soon

@ZOWIESupport Hi, I hope you’re doing well. I purchased two 240Hz TN panels XL2546K in 2022, and one of them has developed a horizontal blinking line at the top. I contacted Zowie service, but since it’s out of warranty, they suggested a panel replacement costing around 85–90% of the monitor price w

Update - XL2546K “bruise” + random shut-offs — replacement panel failed 4 months after warranty

Its better to jump to other panel as its technology is obselete now, Other ips panel can get even better performance than this DYAC stuff, even OLED doesnt have ghosting anymore, benq is overpriced for its DYAC technology while other ips / oled panel is cheaper option, I had XL2546K-B died on my aft

XL2546X 240hz pixel shifting/shaking/blinking issue

This happened to me wayback 2023 on my xl2546k Had it for replacement. Now 2025 I am using their monitor again same model, but now it appears out of nowhere a burn in dark spot on my monitor. Benq has a lot of issue I think. This is the second monitor I had with then and it still has issue.

How many hz is your screen, and what is your current elo? Faceit, ESEA, or Premier

Zowie XL2546K owner here. If you are playing CS only, consider it, otherwise - it is garbage for anything else. Bad colors, bad view angles, low res (1920x1080). And i recommend to go for 360hz or higher, I regret now for saving few bucks and not buying xl2566k.

Xl2546x weird dead pixel

Yeah, their monitors still offer top performance for competitive shooters (DyAc 2 is awesome), but the price increase and quality control definitely need improvement. My 2546X also has crazy light bleed, and the panel doesn’t feel sturdy. I’d say it’s a complete downgrade in terms of build quality c
