Mikelab6 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Hi all,I've just got the 32" 2560x1440 monitor from BenQ (BL3200PT), upgrading from a 22" Samsung (1920x1050). The immersion is unbelivable and the details of the VC and Orbx sceneny are just amazing. Wow ! The dot pitch of a 1440p at 32" is just perfect. It's about the same dot pitch as a 24" at 1200p. Fonts size are not too small as for a 27" at 1440p, so its easier to read web pages and file names on desktop.I was wondering if my old i5-750 CPU and GTX-470 were able to maintain a good FPS, and yes. The FPS still good around 30 with NGX at KJAC with region enabled & ASN. Just wow !Don't forget, your monitor is the part of your setup you are looking at, all flight long, so have a nice one, you won't regret it.The virtual cockpit is now so crisp and bigger than before, its help to see all gauges details, and add a wider VC view. I am very happy now, its a new sim.....OK, Enough said, now I will go back flying....so much fun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boleyd Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I have to buy a pill cutter and then get one of these! Then I read NewEgg reports. Seems a trend where electronics fail out of the box. Just too risky for me versus "it works for me". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawrence aldrich Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I have a 27" BenQ and have been using it for two years and it is the best monitor I've ever owned. Totally trouble free. Some things about NewEgg reports I think you have to consider are : 1. Not everybody that buys products submits ratings. 2. Those that do rate generally tend to be picky. So, to me bad ratings tend to represent minority opinion and, while generally interesting, are not conclusive. Nothing is perfect except Orbx.

Ben77 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 That's certainly a great endorsement for BenQ 1440p monitors, I will definitely have to suss them out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickel Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Let me know what path you go down. I'm trying to secure funds from the Minister for War & Finance for a new monitor. Might need to 'break' the current one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben77 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I'm actually seriously considering the Acer predator x34 with g-sync Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boleyd Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I was thinking about a 27" 2k monitor. The comment on the readability of that definition on a 27" screen caused me to pause. Can anyone comment on a 27" monitor at 2K in terms of text readability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick66 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I'm actually seriously considering the Acer predator x34 with g-sync G-sync is fantastic....i`ve had the Asus Swift now for just over 1 year, it was the flagship release of g-sync monitors and was the best investment for FSX/P3d.. Highly recommend it. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penzoil3 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I've had a BenqQ 2760GL for almost a year. It's a greatonitor. I was hesitant at first, had always used Samsung. I bought the Benq on sale for less the $ 150, and I'm glad I did. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I have paid a lot of money 9 years ago for my LG 32... Something like 1200$ but never regretted. My actual setup is a bit different with 3 monitor now but the 32in is still my main one. Colors have staid the same over the years. I can't just go smaller now Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelab6 Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Me too Ben. I was first looking at a 27 inches monitor, but went with the 32 inches and very happy I did. It's not too big after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
