Purpose and audience

The BenQ GW2491 is a 23.8 inch Full HD IPS monitor built for everyday desktop work and media viewing. Its 100 Hz refresh rate and 99 percent sRGB coverage suit office users, students and casual creators who want smooth motion and accurate colour without a gaming focus.

Who it suits and who it does not

The 16.7 million colour palette and 5 ms response time serve general productivity, video streaming and light photo editing well. Buyers who need higher refresh rates for competitive play, faster pixel response for fast motion clarity, or wider colour gamuts for professional grading should look at other models.

Deciding specification

The single spec that decides fit is the 100 Hz refresh rate combined with a 1920 x 1080 IPS panel at 23.8 inches. If that resolution and refresh combination matches the workflow, the monitor delivers the listed brightness, contrast and eye-care features; if the workflow demands more speed or resolution, a different panel is required.

Questions about this item

How much power does the GW2491 draw when running all day?

The monitor has a typical brightness of 250 cd/m² and uses an LED backlight, which keeps energy use low during extended sessions.

Which cables must I already own to connect the GW2491?

You need either an HDMI 1.4 cable or a DisplayPort 1.2 cable; the monitor includes one of each in the box.

Will the GW2491 work with an older graphics card that only has DVI or VGA?

The monitor offers HDMI 1.4 and DisplayPort 1.2 inputs, so a DVI or VGA source requires an active adapter.
