<description>
<![CDATA[
Being somewhat overshadowed by the release of the BenQ XL2420T, another model has been released recently by the company, but this time it is more aimed at RTS gaming than FPS. The 24" sized screen does not offer the 120Hz and 3D support of the XL2420T but a fair amount of development has gone in to it nevertheless. IT has apparently been co-developed with the professional team of Starcraft 2 gamers known as 'Stardale' ('Bomber', 'July' and 'Ace') and features a special 'RTS mode' designed to maximise visibility in dark areas...........

<![CDATA[
Another model showcased at this years CES exhibition was the ViewSonic V3D271. This 27" monitor uses passive 3D technology to support stereoscopic vision. This represents a change of direction for ViewSonic who have mainly been using active shutter methods, with NVIDIA's 3D kit in mind, to offer 3D solutions. This means that while it will offer 3D support, it does not offer the 120Hz refresh rate support of active shutter based screens..........
