Maximum manufacturer-listed refresh rate, not measured motion clarity. The port-specific limits below matter; HDMI and DisplayPort can support different modes.
Manufacturer specification · BenQ lists HDMI: 220 Hz, DP: 220 Hz; the 220 Hz figure needs the HDMI or DP input and a source device that supports the mode.
Manufacturer specification · BenQ lists HDMI: 165 Hz, DP: 180 Hz; the 180 Hz figure needs the DP input and a source device that supports the mode.
Match the monitor to the connection. Refresh limits depend on the input, cable and source device. Confirm the exact regional ports, stand adjustment and mount. Manufacturer response-time methods such as MPRT and GtG are different; neither the image nor these figures establish an independent motion or colour-quality test.
12 verified differences, most decision-relevant first. 7 are also drawn in Visual facts above. Missing information stays separate.
