Hi there, just a pretty simple question,
Which of the two BenQ monitors should I get?I plan on grabbing 2 monitors for a dual monitor setup and since these 2 monitors are basically the same price I am in a bit of a pickle deciding which is best for me. The choice in question is; The BenQ GL2460HM or the BenQ RL2455HM. I plan on using 1 monitor for gaming (pure performance preferred) and the other for social interactions or just youtube. It would be a massive help if you could post which of the 2 monitors (or other options) I should get and why,
Thanks.

If you really want the experience go for the XL2420TE. Its a bit pricer but its worth it as I have 2 of the TE models and one of the T models. The TE is the improved version of the T model and the other models such as the Z is just garbage after that.. a waste of money in my opinion.

If you do not want to spend that kind of money.. go for the RL2455HM. It is 1ms GTG as the GL2460HM is 2 ms GTG. Secondly, the 2460 has speakers and from reviews and personal experience with monitors with speakers.. they are never great.. and I never use them as a movie watcher and gamer on my monitors. You do mention that you would like your primary monitor to be for gaming and second for everything else. The GL2460HM is for everything else.. but still...

The GL2460HM is for everything else.. but still stick with RL2455HM as you will never know one day you would want a 3 monitor set up. They are advertised for different uses and the specs for the RL2455HM are better. You will not regret that decision.

Good luck!
