THE DIFFERENCES, MADE VISIBLE

Visual facts

Differences first. Select a topic for its graphic, sources and conditions.

How to read this comparison
  • Manufacturer facts for the exact models shown. Not a quality rating or a test result.
  • “Different” means the known values differ, not that one is better.
  • Missing or conflicting evidence is marked and never counts as a difference. Source chips hold each fact’s sources and conditions.

Native-resolution input limits

Check the exact input, signal mode, source and cable. A connector version or supported timing does not guarantee every console mode, VRR setting or game frame rate.

MSI G2712FDisplayPort: up to 180 Hz; HDMI: up to 180 Hz

Manufacturer specification · At native 1920 × 1080 through HDMI or DisplayPort with a compatible source, cable and timing; no overclocking needed.

BenQ EX271HDMI: 165 Hz, DP: 180 Hz

Manufacturer specification · The source device and input must support the mode.

Explore the full specifications

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.
