Differences first. Select a topic for its graphic, sources and conditions.
Maximum manufacturer-listed refresh rate, not measured motion clarity. The port-specific limits below matter; HDMI and DisplayPort can support different modes.
Manufacturer specification · English manual p. 24: 170 Hz maximum, default 165 Hz. DisplayPort overclock must be enabled for 170 Hz; HDMI native maximum 144 Hz remains separate.
Manufacturer specification · HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C: 2560 × 1440 up to 75 Hz. Compatible source and cable required.
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.
27 verified differences, most decision-relevant first. 7 are also drawn in Visual facts above. Missing information stays separate.
