Overview
The BenQ EX321UX pairs a 31.5-inch IPS-ADS panel at 3840 × 2160 with a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz. It offers 140 ppi pixel density, 700 nits typical brightness (1000 nits peak), 1000:1 static contrast and 99% DCI-P3 coverage. Variable refresh covers 48–144 Hz, quotes 1 ms response and supports FreeSync Premium Pro. Inputs include 3× HDMI 2.1, 1× DisplayPort 2.1, USB-C 65 W and 3× USB-A. The stand offers 100 mm of height adjustment and swivel. There are no speakers, and it weighs 9.7 kg with the stand. It suits players who want smooth motion for fast games.
