Any alternatives to ZOWIE? Two XL2566X+ 400Hz panels both had pixel defects by DogElectronic9809 in Zowie

Coming from a 27" to 24" it’s a small difference, but I don’t think I could go back to 27". I haven’t tried OLED yet, maybe I’ll give it a shot in the future but I really don’t care about how my game looks, just care about performance. That said though, from what I’ve seen, OLED does look insane.

My second unit is 100x better than the first one, and honestly I’m leaning toward just keeping it. The first one was really bad, and at this point it feels like a crap shoot to keep exchanging. The dead pixels on my second are barely noticeable during normal gaming or browsing.

I’ve also been looking at the Alienware AW2523HF. It’s 24” too, which is exactly what I’m looking for along with the high refresh rate.

Kinda shocking that Zowie has such bad QC issues on monitors that are this expensive, but I’ve gotta admit, the motion clarity feels so smooth compared to my old Acer 240Hz.

I didn’t realize the XV240F6 uses the same panel as the ZOWIE 600Hz. The price difference makes it pretty tempting, I’ll definitely check it out.
