Maybe it depends on how much you spent on your BenQ -- which -- without lying to you, would be a good monitor for whatever features and price range you choose. Me -- I've got an XL 2420Z 144Hz.
I don't think I've discovered everything I need to know about my hardware yet. I don't think I can go beyond 60Hz on this monitor and my current graphics card through HDMI, and my card is a 1070 GTX as well as a double GTX 970 in another machine. But I'm satisfied to have DVI on the monitor allowing for 144Hz. I also have DisplayPort.
But DisplayPort with this hardware isn't HDCP compliant, upon which I still insist. I only get compliancy with either DVI or HDMI.
Now I think this model is too small, and 1920x1080 may be fine, but I want to see what my rig can accomplish at 1440. So I have my eye on a 27" model. It is a model which also features the "S-switch" doo-dad that allows on-the-fly switching between ports (like the V in KVM), and access via a mouse-scroll button to the monitor's own configuration menu. I don't fiddle with the software, although it works fine. The biggest problem with the software is any multi-PC install. The S-Switch doesn't foul anything up, after you've saved a configuration to the monitor itself. You could create the configuration in the software, save it to the monitor via the S-Switch, and then uninstall the software.
