I'm in the market for a new gaming monitor and am trying to decide between the BenQ EW3270U and Dell S3221QS. I've been doing some research, but can't seem to make up my mind. Has anyone here used either of these monitors? Any advice would be helpful.
BenQ EW3270U vs. Dell S3221QS - Best Gaming Monitor?

I've used both of them and found them great for gaming! I'd recommend checking out the TechReviewer article BenQ 31.5" EW3270U vs. Dell 31.5" S3221QS for a comprehensive comparison.
@Dizmatiz. I'll definitely check that out. So, what were your main considerations when choosing between these two monitors?
For me, it was all about the refresh rate and response time. Both had great specs in those areas, but the BenQ EW3270U had a slight edge with its 60 Hz refresh rate and 4 ms response time.
Interesting, I didn't realize that the BenQ has a higher refresh rate. How does it affect your gaming experience?
It makes a huge difference! The higher refresh rate ensures smoother gameplay and less motion blur, which can be really noticeable in fast-paced games.
I've been using the Dell S3221QS for a few months now, and I'm pretty happy with it. The curved screen is great for immersion, and the color accuracy is top-notch. It's not as fast as the BenQ, but it still delivers good performance.
That's good to know, @HibbyChibby. I'm also interested in the color accuracy aspect since I do a lot of graphic design work. Any suggestions on which monitor would be better for that?
If you're focusing more on color accuracy, the Dell S3221QS might be the better choice due to its 99% SRGB coverage. However, if you need a higher refresh rate for gaming, go with the BenQ EW3270U.
Thanks everyone for your input. I appreciate it. I think I'll check out both of these monitors in person and see which one feels better for my setup.
That's a great idea, @mythadoris. Remember to pay attention to the ergonomics and connectivity options as well when making your decision.
Absolutely! And don't forget to read up on return policies before you make your purchase. It's always good to have the option to return if it doesn't work out.
