Our Verdict

BenQ ZOWIE XL2411P

Dell S2419HGF

The Dell S2419HGF is slightly better than the BenQ ZOWIE XL2411P. Both monitors have an excellent refresh rate of 144Hz, even though the Dell has to be overclocked to get there. The Dell, however, also supports AMD's FreeSync variable refresh rate for an almost tear-free gaming experience. Both monitors are flicker-free, which is great, but the BenQ offers an optional black frame insertion feature to help make motion crisper.
