    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    just one final comment on the built in loudpeakers - the general view i think is that they are arnt very good. Well I dont agree. Certainly at first use they are poor - they need quite a bit of time to loosen up, then they sound quite respectable - in line with many you find on good small tvs...

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    wel l my Benq GW2450 is still working a year on. It seems to have got a bit better since when I got it. I use mine only for tv/video and it does a very good job, the colours are vibrant. I dont experience any flickering. Even the sound after adjusting with the pc equaliser is ok for...

    BenQ GW2460HM review: http://www.extrahardware.com/benq-gw...choice-eur-200 hmm doesnt look too promising? I only did a quick look thru it and no mention of the issues that plague many people here - various types of coloured ghosting? I judge a review of these VA monitors by the...

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    Asking alot I think you are. In my case the ghosting is red where eg faces border on dark background eg dark hair. Is very noticeable on ,my early model. Only those circumstances though. Took me about 2 months to see it - I use mine as a TV screen which u dont really stare at all...

    Regarding scrolling text having yellow blur, why not just turn off smooth scrolling in your browser? That cures a multitude of sins.

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    I have an early 24", so what I say may not apply to later ones . I use mine only as a media screen for Windows Media Centre so have lots of experience with TV and films and DVDs. My version has in some special circumstances a noticeable red motion blurr, usually of a red based surface...

    Yes regarding the Benq - the low resolution 1920x 1080 doesnt help motion - much more ragged than with a small monitor I think. I cant imagine a 27" on a desk top - shows all its faults as u are so close up to it

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    I think an earlier post said that using anything other than the default 60hz undermines the AMA overdrive so you will get blurred motion. The only thing many ppl recommend is that as these monitors show a green bias, lower the green - but u also need to do that for the blacks/shadows...

    The important fact you mentioned is "$" So I assume you are in USA? Then dont buy anything Benq. A guy here had no end of trouble with RMA with them. Seems like Benq USA are ... not good. I have the 24", an early one, dated March. It has motion blurr issues for red in certain conditions...

    BenQ GW2x50(HM) thread.

    very surprised at this. I would have agreed about games/movies ( it has issues ) but for general desktop is fine. Colours are ok! Maybe you are so used to your old monitor you want the Benq to be the same?
