Hi I just recently bought two BenQ XL24LL's to use with my BenQ XL2430T which is in the middle of both. I use a displayport cable for the middle monitor (XL240T) and bought two DVI to Displayport Cables for the XL24LL's because they do not have displayport ports on the backs.

Through all this I still get 60Hz on the two new monitors but 144Hz on my older XL2430T.

When checking under Device Manager there are 3 listings:
- ZOWIE XL LCD (Digital)
- ZOWIE XL LCD (Digital)
- ZOWIE XL LCD (Displayport)

When checking under "Driver File Details" the "ZOWIE XL LCD (Digital)" monitors have the same file directory for "monitory.sys" C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\monitor.sys and same file directory for the ".icm" files except they are named differently (since they are different models I suppose) which is located C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color\XL24LL.icm and C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color\XL2430.icm

*These are all observations and I am not sure which or if any of these points help*
