No. I am using a DisplayPort cable which has been used with several other 4K monitors, none of which exhibited this issue.
BL3201PT_[WHQL driver (Freesync) ]
Does this monitor support freesync or what???
Code:BL3201PT_[WHQL driver (Freesync) ]

Rule the cable out by using one of the included cables. The manual even says you should use the included power cable.
I've been using the included MDP cable off my 7970 and it's been working great, granted I haven't spent more than two consecutive hours in-front of it yet.
The INF has this line in it:
Code:HKR,"MODES\3840,2160",Mode1,,"133.0-133.0,48.0-60.0,+,-"
Indicating it has 48-60 Hz vsync range.
ALSO, to answer your question, after march benq started making your monitor but with freesync capabilies, so if you bought it after march, that's probably why
There's a video floating around on Youtube claiming to have a Freesync compatible BL3201PT that takes no performance hit when enabling the feature. Manufacture date is March 2015. There was also a comment on the video:
This monitor seems like a dud to me.

The Samsung seems to have better quality control, and it definitely has FreeSync. I see no reason to go BenQ over it.
Except that it is significantly cheaper and more widely available. Plus is very well reviewed.
Really?! :O
What is the FreeSync range do you know?
I have this monitor and I've suffered through the occasional flicker (not a big deal), but my screen is suddenly blacking out for a second or two at random intervals (this is a big deal). Has anyone had this happen to their BL3201PT? It's happening every couple of minutes, it appears
No I don't have that on mine.I received mine yesterday, and noticed the same "bruise" towards the bottom middle of the screen that two others mentioned. Its very noticeable. Do they all have this?
No I don't have that on mine.
Man, such a nice monitors and decent price compare to other 4K in that size but the QC its very questionable.
Let us know if you have any issues with "Loss of Signal"
My first panel had a flashing rectangle in the top-left of the screen; I'm on my second one now. It has the bruise (the first one did too, and the bruise was much worse than on this one).
Mine doesn't have it, its crystal clear, well other then the other isssuesIf this third one has the bruise, I'm going to assume that they all have it and I'll have to decide whether or not I can live with that.
Question on this monitor: Is this monitor considered full on matte or 'semi-glossy'?
What is your favorite monitor?Technically it's matte, but the coating it uses (the least grainy or sparkly matte coating) used to be referred to as semi-glossy since it was so much lighter than the matte coatings when it first debuted (2011 grainy matte Dell U2711 versus "semi-glossy" Samsung S27A850D which was the first monitor to use this kind of coating), and is still lighter than the matte coatings TN panels use. The coating has become lighter and less reflective over time, and there are quite a few true semi-glossy displays (mostly 40"+ 4k monitors) available now.
The HP 32 Spectre has an almost-glossy (1% haze) coating, and I'm going to start testing one on Saturday. It's likely the same as the BenQ, but the almost-glossy coating and perceived black depth enhancing white bezel (and casing) give it a huge edge in my mind.
