Specifications:
While there are a lot of technical information listed below
there are a few key features to look out for when selecting a LCD.
With so many display choices out there, you might be confused what to purchase.
There are two display
options for a desktop computer system, the older but very adorable CRT or newer
LCD (sometimes referred to as TFT). CRT or Cathode Ray Tube is a dated
technology but does offer excellent color, especially in dark gaming
environments. The disadvantage to CRTs is they cause eyestrain and are very
heavy. So I would rule them out and go with a Liquid Crystal Display. There are
two different formats to choose from: Fullscreen and Widescreen. Considering
that widescreen LCDs are now affordable, I would strongly recommend going that route.
When selecting a widescreen LCD remember to get one with a response time of 8ms
or better. This should avoid ghosting. Ghosting happens when the pixels creating
the image take to long to switch on and off creating a burred/distorted effect. Also, be sure the LCD has a DVI/HDCP
(High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) connection and/or HDMI/HDCP
(High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connection. I would recommend getting one
with a HDMI/HDCP connection because it the new standard. One other important
consideration is the resolution. Most widescreen LCDs are 1680x1050 pixels, but
the more expensive newer models are 1920x1200 pixels. A 1920x1200 resolution
will result in more desktop space and allows super high resolution gaming.
Contrast ratio should be between 700:1 to 1000:1. Brightness should be 300 to
500cd/m2 and the viewing angle should be above 170 degrees. Finally, be certain
that it carries an excellent warranty.

Technical Information:
Below is a technical expansion of the display modes, PerfectMotrion dynamic
video processing technology, and Senseye technology as explained on
BenQ's website.
"Expect all your games to be smooth, crisp and unbelievably clear with BenQ's
new 24-inch FP241VW and 19-inch FP94VW. With just a simple touch of a button,
six specialized display modes (Standard, Dynamic, Movies, Photos, Action Game
and Racing Game) deliver the widest range of viewing experiences. The two
dedicated gaming modes – Action Game and Racing Game – give you the power to
configure mind-blowing gaming experiences, taking you into the heart of the
game.

On top of that, the FP241VW is integrated with PerfectMotion dynamic video
processing technology. It uses two steps to ensure that frustrating,
game-inhibiting ghosting and motion blur around the screen edges are eliminated.
Firstly, it reduces the grey-to-grey response time, and secondly, it inserts a
black frame between motion frames – giving you a crystal-clear view,
ultra-smooth motion and sure-fire advantage over the competition. Working
together with an ultra-fast 12ms MPRT (Motion Picture Response Time), smooth
playback of even the most action-packed visual contents is assured – satisfying
your expectations of the best possible viewing experience.
BenQ's exclusive Senseye Technology features in both the FP241VW and the FP94VW.
Image quality is automatically and dynamically improved to deliver exquisite
clarity that's bolder and brighter – taking you into the action so you don't
miss anything. The human eye is emulated by fine-tuning the color, clarity,
motion and contrast – effectively enhancing image signals to display them
perfectly.
So, whether you're racing to win, defeating the enemy or living out a fantasy,
the unsurpassed visual quality is a true force to be reckoned with.

Live the action with the FP241VW's superior, lifelike, high-definition images.
Thanks to its 1920x1200 (WUXGA) resolution and HDMI (High-Definition Multi-media
Interface), it fully supports video resolutions of 1080P (Native Full HD
1920x1080). You'll see details you never knew existed with the perfect picture
every time.

HDMI is a new generation connector and is simply the best for digital video and
audio performance. It allows easy connection of HD enabled equipment such as HD
DVD players, the latest gaming consoles and online games. All this is done by
carrying both digital video and audio signals via one cable. It couldn't be
easier. " ~BenQ.com
Now that's out of the way, let's have a closer look.
