Upgraded from 540 Hz to 600 Hz, XL2586X+ is now the fastest gaming monitor available, consistently ensuring smooth visuals during fast-motion and dramatic transitions without overclocking. It also includes auto game mode via XL Setting to Share software and industrial-grade bearings for precise height adjustment, solidifying XL-X+ series' position as the mainstream standard for eSports competitions and exemplifying ZOWIE's mission is to lead the FPS field by providing competitive players with top-tier equipment and the most seamless in-game experiences.
Our Mission
By continually developing professional eSports products specifically designed for FPS players, ZOWIE has come to deeply understand their needs. Going the extra mile and paying attention to the smallest details is how we give players the best gaming experience and help them achieve their very best.
Since the introduction of XL Series monitors in 2010, we have continuously upgraded our technology for clearer visuals, improved software control for convenient setting optimization, and enhanced the user experience. Our goal is to deliver features and designs that directly benefit players in competitive gaming, avoiding unnecessarily flashy designs that do not contribute to competitiveness.
Fast-TN Improvement for eSports
In contrast to the previous generation of TN panels, the new Fast-TN panel improves conductivity with faster liquid crystal response to suppress ghosting more effectively. Expanding the XL-X+ series eSports monitor lineup, XL2586X+ incorporates the latest in Fast-TN technology for significant improvements in response time and motion blur reduction. Alongside the industry's fastest 600 Hz refresh rate, XL2586X+ also features a new vivid color film that enhances color performance by 35%, making enemy targets stand out more clearly and minimizing color washout commonly seen in standard TN panels.
Latest Dynamic Accuracy Technology (DyAc 2)
XL2586X+ also comes with the latest DyAc 2 technology, ZOWIE's dynamic accuracy mechanism for best-in-class motion clarity and superior overall visual experiences. DyAc 2 is a significant upgrade from DyAc / DyAc⁺, now utilizing dual backlights with greater precision control to achieve a higher level of motion blur reduction and ghosting minimization, together with softened light output to facilitate eye adaptation.
New Auto Game Mode Automatically Adjusts Color Modes
For convenient automatic color mode switching between different games and usage scenarios, XL2586X+ features Auto Game Mode via XL Setting to Share software, eliminating the hassle of continuously making adjustments to optimally match visual performance with content.
Industrial-Grade Bearings for Height Adjustment
Featuring height-adjustable designs with industrial-grade bearings, XL2586X+ allows gamers to set the ideal position on the fly, gliding without stuttering or over-adjusting. This helps players complete their setup in the eSports arena in the shortest time possible, empowering them to quickly enter a focused state for the competition.

edit: I checked well ok, 9800X3D + 4090 hits 600fps on CS2, so I guess there's a game this could matter.

I also doubt 120hz increase is enough to make it more clear vs an oled, even with dyac2, due to the instant response of oled.
Now, i don't say it doesnt have a space BUT its not at 1200eur when the oled are cheaper, its at 500-600 eur.

Surely not worth $1000 for a Fast-TN panel, but thats chump change for professional gaming orgs. I'm pretty sure they don't mass-produce these monitors as much as the other "gaming" monitors being sold.
Both are past their prime and should not be purchased by anyone who is serious about a monitor in their respective nichesOLED is self emissive technology, therefore backlight strobing does not really exist with this type of panel. LG removed the black frame insertion feature from newer OLED models mostly because it is no longer needed and it had bugs
LG removed BFI (OLED Motion Pro) from the C3 and up because no one was really using the feature, and it was only at 60 Hz (since it was a 120Hz panel) with black frames inserted every second frame. Also, it did add around 4ms input lag which I believe was one of notable issues of that panel.
Which would you choose for eSports after seeing the before & after pictures?

I'd get an OLED at an instant if burn-ins weren't a problem. I know they are as my friend's LG TV had quite a bit burn ins
@capdauntless
so just because i prefer image quality/color gamut/(no) color banding etc, makes me a display snob?
sounds like you dont have any nice things, or ppl could label you as such.
@Dahita
please read the titel again. where does it say office use?
complaining about life expectancy on 1. different use than yours 2. used by folks with enough funds to replace it after 1-2y.
ignoring BI/IR does not equal life expectancy.
