ZOWIE, BenQ’s esports equipment brand, has launched the XL2566X+ gaming monitor, designed for FPS players and games. 

The new monitor is the successor to ZOWIE’s XL2566K product, which has been used for major Counter-Strike events such as CS2’s first-ever major in Copenhagen and CS:GO’s BLAST.tv Paris Major.

The XL2566X+ monitor marks the debut of ZOWIE’s  X+ series. According to a release, the new series will incorporate new Fast TN panel technology with a 400Hz refresh rate for faster response times. Moreover, the model features DyAc 2 technology, which looks to provide dynamic image clarity.

By combining its Fast TN and DyAc 2 technologies, ZOWIE highlighted that the new monitor has been tailored for FPS games. The new monitor looks to provide clearer and sharper images which reduces game interference caused by blurry images. The monitor is also designed for the preferred resolution for fans of CS2 (1280×960) and VALORANT (1920×1080).

ZOWIE’s new Fast TN panel technology is expected to provide faster conductivity than its previous general. Moreover, the XL2566X+ has been redesigned to enhance colour performance to provide greater image quality. 

Founded in 2008, ZOWIE has become a household name in the esports peripherals space.  Alongside its range of monitors, the brand also produces mice and mousepads. The company has also secured a range of esports partnerships, including VALORANT’s international leagues (Pacific, Americas and EMEA) and the ESL Pro League.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
