Chung, general manager for BenQAustralia, \u201cVA panel technology offers outstanding visual performance with the sharpest details, the richest colours and the deepest blacks.\u00a0 Together these core elements contribute to the monitor\u2019s visual clarity and comfort, even in the most complex of scenes.\u00a0 In everyday use, VA monitors are also very energy-efficient and eco-friendly, greatly reducing power consumption.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Today, computer monitors are being used for more than word processing and email.\u00a0 The GW series will display photos and general IT sites with amazing colour clarity and detail; are ideal for personal entertainment pursuits like watching movies and video streaming and are highly valuable in the corporate sector for presenting business plans and graphical information.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe consumer is becoming far more discerning when considering upgrading their monitor,\u201d said Chung, \u201cwith comfort and quality reproduction key factors in the purchasing decision.\u00a0 Not all screens are the same.\u00a0 Terminology like \u2018contrast ratio\u2019 is generally understood by consumers looking for a computer monitor with greater colour depth and definition,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Key features of the new GW Series include<\/span>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>5000:1 Ultra High Native Contrast \u2013 a \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 contrast ratio which is five times that of general panels, the VA panel \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 incorporated into GW provides astonishing visual performance, bringing \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 every detail to life.<\/li>\n<li>True 8-bit Colour Performance \u2013 rendering \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 a total of 16.7 million colour shades for smoother and more stable colour \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 transition.<\/li>\n<li>True Blacks and Minimized Light Leakage \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u2013 with naturally deeper blacks and minimized light leakage, VA panels \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 display flawlessly layered and precisely contrasted details in even the \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 darkest scenes.<\/li>\n<li>Wide Angle Viewing \u2013 VA panels come \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 with an ultra-wide viewing angle of 178?\/178? for greater viewing from \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 right, left, above and below the screen.<\/li>\n<li>LED Backlight \u2013 allows lower power \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 consumption than conventional CCFL monitors.\u00a0 The GW Series are even \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 more economical when used in Eco Mode.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cVA panels are predicted to have a 42% share in 2012, surpassing traditional TN, TN Wide-View and IPS\/FFS panels, and future predictions show a further 42% growth by 2015,\u201d said Chung.\u00a0 \u201cThis tells us there is an increasing demand for VA display around the world, and BenQ intends to fulfill it.\u00a0 Expanding our VA selection with the launch of the 2012 GW Series, we\u2019re offering our valued customers a wide array of choices for business and personal entertainment use with display sizes ranging from 21.5- 27\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span
