You may think that one computer monitor is much like any other but you would be wrong. Monitors come in different sizes, different styles with different abilities and uses. Enter this contest and you may discover just how great a monitor can be: the prize is a BenQ Zowie Gaming Monitor that is very light, and is designed to handle the faced paced demands of today’s video games. It’s perfect for the student heading back to school, or any home where the computer does more than just spreadsheets.

What makes a monitor great

We are long past the days where the computer monitor occupied a major portion of your computer desk, and was a pain to move because of its weight and awkwardness. Monitors in 2017 keep getting thinner, lighter and brighter so you can work and play without getting eye strain, move them without getting a hernia, and place them on almost any table or desk and they don’t get in the way.

The prize for this contest is a great example of what I’m talking about. The BenQ monitor has the features that anyone would covet in a monitor. The bonus comes if you are into video games, and especially eSports, since this monitor is designed to refresh very quickly so that your focus remains on the game, not on the flickering screen.

BenQ Zowie Console Gaming Monitor Features

We recently sent this monitor to independent blogger Chris Loblaw for an unbiased review. Read the full review yourself, but here are some features that he called out as especially useful:

  • easy setup: great for everyone who upgrades their monitor
  • light and portable: great for taking to eSports turnaments
  • fast refresh rate of 1ms is faster than most televisions
  • black eQualizer setting: allows you to enhance the blacks with dulling the whole scene
  • low blue light: drastically reduces eye-strain
  • flicker free: flicker too can cause eye-strain
  • non-reflective frame: another feature meant to enhance the gaming experience

Right now you may be thinking, “how can I get one of these?” There are two ways: you can just go online and purchase one from Best Buy (that’s the easiest way); you can also enter this contest. Even you don’t need a new monitor yourself, you probably know a student who’ll be going back to school in the fall who would love to get a BenQ gaming monitor.

  1. the low blue light feature is super important for overall health, as it affects the circadian rhythm which in turn affects lots of other things in the body.

  9. I like that it has low blue light to drastically reduces eye-strain, which I experience quite frequently!

  10. Low blue light, this is key because, nowadays, no one can avoid spending time on the computer. Everything we do involves computers. This feature can significantly reduce the damages to our eyes. Therefore, this is a must-have feature for all monitors.

  16. Fast refresh is my favourite part about it. I play first person shooters , and having that option will definitely give me an advantage in PvP.

  19. The best part of the BenQ is it makes a perfect surprise for my husband. He is not only a huge online gamer but is also beginning his first year of college studying finances. I know he really would love a proper view of his course programs.. and then too maybe we can finally cuddle up and watch our DvDs! 😀

  25. Well, all features aside, I like how this monitor looks. I know, I know it has bezels and all, but it actually makes it look reliable, sturdy, and durable, when compared to modern bezel-less featherweight monitors.

  39. THE LOW BLUE LIGHT!
    Because I Photoshops hours and hours long and my êtes always become red as blood.. Please!
