New Delhi, September 24, 2012 – BenQ, an internationally renowned provider of digital lifestyle innovations and LED monitor expert, is pleased to announce today its official gaming monitor sponsorship of Asia’s most anticipated eSports tournament: Asia e-Sports Cup 2012, which will be taking place at Tokyo Game Show 2012 from September 20th to 23rd this year in Japan. The XL2420T has been recognized by professional gamers and esteemed gaming events around the world as the most preferred gaming monitor for training and competing. Boasting superior response rate, razor-sharp clarity and control, the incredible creation makes the ultimate kill machine for gaming victory. Organized by Cyber Athlete Competition (CyAC) of the Nichikare Corporation, Asia e-Sports Cup 2012 brings together top teams of Counter-Strike 1.6 as well as top players of the biggest real-time strategy (RTS) game, StarCraft II, from eight countries across Asia to compete for the title of Asia’s best professional gamer and a grand prize pool of USD $21,000. These gamers are to battle their way up through National Preliminaries in order to take their place in the Grand Finals at Hall 4-N4 of Makuhari Messe convention center just outside of Tokyo. BenQ, as the official gaming monitor sponsor, will be catering to the finalists there with its flagship professional gaming monitor, the XL2420T, and to help bring out the best of their gameplay performances. Recognized globally as the official monitor for international eSports tournaments and the first-choice training gear of world-class gamers, BenQ’s XL2420T 24” 120Hz professional gaming monitor was designed through the joint efforts of BenQ’s R&D experts, world-renowned gamers and gaming professionals to deliver the ultimate competitive edge for first-person shooter (FPS) and real-time strategy (RTS) games. Under the core belief of “Gaming is in the Details”, some of the best visual display design and technologies were created, including Black eQualizer, an exclusively designed color engine technology that allows gamers to brighten the image display without over-exposing white levels so that they can respond quickly to critical combat details revealed in darkened areas with improved visibility. An ideal choice for boosting gameplay, the XL2420T is certainly worth looking forward to for the professional gamers entering Asia e-Sports Cup 2012. “We are truly excited to participate in this magnificent event and to provide for prominent eSports professionals from all over Asia,” Adrian Chang, President of BenQ Asia Pacific Corporation. “We treasure every opportunity to contribute to the gaming community, sponsoring worldwide eSports tournaments events, including IEM and MLG. It’s been a pleasure to see professional gaming teams adopting the XL and RL Series as their training monitors, such as ESC, M5.BenQ, Virtus. Pro, TCM, Team Dyanmic, Mineski, Team Immunity and many more. We definitely hope to continue to be a part of the journey to promote eSports to a global audience.”
