Stuck Between 240hz OLED or 360hz IPS
The people spamming OLED are completely wrong for your specific circumstance. The guy said he mainly plays competitive games. You’ll rarely find a pro playing at a tournament level using an OLED monitor and there are reasons for that (DyAc is a MAJOR one). They are all on 1080p 24 inch TN BenQ Zowie

Zowie Monitor Advice XL2566X+ (400Hz) Vs the XL2586X+ (600Hz).
Dyac makes a huge difference in cs. Its definently noticeable. For competitive fps nothing comes even close to zowies. There is absolutely a reason why no other monitors are used in high tier play. I would even take an xl2546k over an oled for fps.

Nvidia Pulsar vs zowie 600hz
I had the XL2546k for years (240 with DyAc+). Then I tried the new XL2586X+ and returned it. I stayed above the refresh rate FPS wise. Then I decided to try the Asus model of these new G Sync Pulsar monitors and actually felt a massive difference right away. The few review videos online don't do it

Zowie XL2566X+ vs 360hz OLED (XG27ACDNG)
OLED is worth it because how much better it looks visually, especially if you don't plan on going pro. Motion clarity is definitely worse - I upgraded from a XL2546K to a Dell Alienware AW2725DF and I felt it immediately in CS but the 1440p resolution clarity itself is worth it - especially for me w

Benq xl2546k causing eye strain
I have owned and used the same Zowie XL2546K monitor for the past 4 years. The issues you describe are identical to mine unfortunately. I also tried disabling the DYAC thinking that might solve the eye fatigue issues however no difference. Recently purchased an 34 inch Alienware QDOLED and eye strai

I am looking to upgrade my 180hz monitor to 360hz but im confused between xg25qns xl2566k
Had 240hz IPS and now a XL2546K which is also 240hz and going from that IPS to the zowie felt like going to 360hz lol. Don’t get IPS they’re terribly overrated unless u only play campaign games or whatever but even on the TN the colours are pretty much the same as IPS once calibrated

Question about zowie monitors
I used many monitors including high end IPS, 360hz oleds, other TNs etc and the zowie just feels better. While i do use dyac as it’s just that much better, even if i turn off dyac it’s still way smoother than my IPS monitors which felt blurry at the same Hz. Compared to the oled motion clarity is ju

BENQ XL2566X 400HZ VS 480 veya 500 Hz OLED
Hi, competitive player as well (3k elo) I play with oled 480hz. Played with zowie xl2540k for a long time. It was a huge upgrade in clarity. Can’t compare with high refresh zowie they are too expansive. Love my oled and 27 is not a problem after 2 days of use. I would love 10-15% more brightness (th

is BenQ ZOWIE XL2540K the best 240 hz esport\comp monitor ??
Have you ever tried one? The motion clarity is unparalleled. I’ve had 144hz IPS, 144hz TN, 360hz TN and 360hz OLED. I’m sticking with TN for the foreseeable future. It really depends on what games you play and what you’re looking for in a monitor. But TN + DyAc is pretty gangster for e-sports motion
