ZOWIE is proud to introduce the XL2546X+, a new esports gaming monitor featuring the latest Fast-TN panel and DyAc 2 technology, delivering fast response time with minimal motion blur. Building on the XL-X+ series, the XL2546X+ utilizes advanced Fast-TN panel technology to increase refresh rate from 240 Hz to 280 Hz for smoother gameplay. The monitor features cutting-edge DyAc 2 motion blur reduction, auto game mode via XL Setting to Share software, and industrial-grade bearings for precise height adjustment, cementing the XL-X+ series' position as the standard for esports competitions.

Our Mission
Through continuous development of professional esports products for FPS players, ZOWIE has gained deep understanding of their needs. Our commitment to excellence and attention to detail enables us to deliver the best gaming experience and help players achieve peak performance.



Since launching the XL Series monitors in 2010, we have steadily advanced our technology, delivering clearer visuals, streamlined software controls for settings optimization, and enhanced user experience. We focus on features that directly improve competitive gaming performance, avoiding superfluous design elements that don't enhance competitiveness.

Fast-TN Improvement for eSports
Unlike previous TN panels, the new Fast-TN panel features enhanced conductivity, enabling faster liquid crystal response and more effective ghosting suppression. As part of the expanding XL-X+ series esports monitor lineup, the XL2546X+ incorporates this latest Fast-TN technology to deliver significant improvements in response time and motion blur reduction.

Latest Dynamic Accuracy Technology (DyAc 2)
The XL2546X+ features the latest DyAc 2 technology, ZOWIE's dynamic accuracy system delivering best-in-class motion clarity and superior visuals. DyAc 2 significantly improves upon DyAc / DyAc⁺ by implementing dual backlights with enhanced precision control, achieving better motion blur reduction and ghosting suppression while providing optimized light output for improved eye comfort.

New Auto Game Mode Automatically Adjusts Color Modes
The XL2546X+ features Auto Game Mode through XL Setting to Share software, enabling automatic color mode switching between games and usage scenarios without manual adjustments for optimal visual performance.

Industrial-Grade Bearings for Height Adjustment
The XL2546X+ features a height-adjustable design with industrial-grade bearings, allowing precise positioning without stutter or drift. This engineering enables players to quickly optimize their setup in the esports arena and enter a focused competitive state.

Ah yes, the CS monitor. And professional CS at that. Hardly anyone else would pay 500 bucks for a 24 inch 1080p TN monitor in the ending months of 2024.

Please. It’s stretched 960p you filthy casual. This is CS we’re talking about, this is serious business.

Jokes aside, all OLED benefits aside, there is a reason why every major CS tournament around uses Zowie monitors. The size is right, the res is right and DyAc is still the best actual motion clarity you can get. Yes, better than an OLED in many regards. Instant response time means nothing when sample and hold blur still exists. I am sure if there were any high refresh 1080p 24-25 inch models with BFI the situation would be different, but there aren’t, and so it isn’t.

But make no mistakes - for an average gamer who isn’t playing on stage at Cologne Major or something these are not a good choice.

it's good that people are having choice despite being TN panel.

but stepping upto 1440p esports TN would have been ideal now...
