Overview
The BenQ BL2790TC pairs a 27-inch IPS panel at 1920 × 1080 with a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz. It offers 81 ppi pixel density, 250 nits typical brightness, 1300:1 static contrast and 99% sRGB coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–144 Hz and quotes 5 ms response. Inputs include 1× HDMI 2.0, 1× DisplayPort 1.4 and USB-C. The stand offers 150 mm of height adjustment and pivot. 2 × 2 W speakers are built in. It suits players who want smooth motion for fast games. The main trade-off: 81 ppi at 27 inches makes text look softer than on sharper panels.
