Know before you buy
DyAc™ technology is designed to reduce motion blur during fast-paced gameplay. It helps keep the image clear when you are moving quickly, making it easier to track targets and maintain focus during intense action.
Black eQualizer brightens dark areas of the screen without overexposing the lighter areas. This allows you to spot enemies hiding in shadows or dark corners more easily without sacrificing overall image quality.
While this monitor is optimized for competitive esports with its 144Hz refresh rate and TN panel, it is perfectly capable of handling general productivity tasks. However, if you prioritize color accuracy for professional photo or video editing, you may prefer an IPS panel monitor instead.
This feature allows you to save your custom display settings and share them with teammates or friends via a simple profile file. It is particularly useful if you want to quickly apply your preferred settings on another compatible ZOWIE monitor.
Yes, the stand is fully adjustable, allowing you to change the height and tilt to find an ergonomic position that works for your specific desk setup. Additionally, the base is designed to be compact, which helps free up more room for your mouse and keyboard.
To achieve the full 144Hz refresh rate, you should use the included DisplayPort cable or a high-speed HDMI cable connected to a compatible graphics card. Ensure your PC settings are configured to 144Hz in the display adapter properties once connected.
