It is good to hear that Benq is moved step forward to bring something innovative in the market place and that is especially for game enthusiast. Well, that is an excellent but I don’t get it why it is only concentrated on single FPS game i.e. Counter strike. Why not other FPS games? There are many other famous FPS games. What about them?

BenQ takes time surprising me with more and more interesting devices, despite that bad reputation in its early years as a manufacturer of LCD monitors and pursued it on many situations condemned to stay behind other brands but even with good reputations. This time it bring a display that could well be the fantasy of any "gamer" enthusiastic since it contains LED backlighting and latest technology to provide maximum viewing comfort, while the maximum detail in the image.

The price is around 380 Euros, not bad for its characteristics.

The 120Hz is just awesome, I will never back down, 60Hz now, I feel that this train ... No input lag, copy flow, really nice picture, ergonomics, and black Equalizer that adds really something in FPS multiplayer ... Besides the handy remote control to navigate menus and make presets, I wonder why no manufacturer had thought of it sooner! It is slightly magnetic on the bottom of the screen, and comes off and attaches easily.
