The monitor features AMD FreeSync support (40-60Hz via both DisplayPort and HDMI) as well as a super resolution sharpening feature and BenQ's Brightness Intelligence Plus sensor which can adjust the brightness and color temperature of the display based on room conditions

Modern Warfare employs a dynamic resolution scaling and never quite hits 4K but, still, if you're coming from a lower resolution display then moving to the EL2870U is going to feel like lifting a veil

scenarios-2k resolution works with PS4 Pro - PS4 Pro doesnt support 2k resolution and many monitors look terrible when converting from 4K to 2k or 1080 to 2k

I normally leave these types of sharpening features off but found the Super Resolution feature to be well implemented here resulting in a low occurrence of artifacts even in it’s highest setting

I thought that the better resolution would make for better eye candy and the graphic card would deliver the max 60 FPS anyway.

The resolution to screen size is perfect!

The generous panel size and ultra high resolution also comes in handy when viewing multiple window panes on a single screen

Super Resolution is essentially BenQ's edge enhancement algorithm

The extra resolution offers a competitive advantage as well

The resolution is great, it looks sharp and clean

I game casually and 2K is the perfect resolution for a 27in gaming monitor

Although it supports 3840x2160 resolution, it becomes too small for use with text, so I ended up using a smaller resolution

great resolution and colors

In addition to picking from any of the available 11 picture modes (including a pair of simulated HDR modes and even a picture mode meant to emulate a MacBook display) you can also access the Super Resolution setting as well as the Smart Focus and DynamicContrast features

* Doesn't work at a decent resolution with my MacBook (still working on getting a replacement cable to try to see if that's if).
