I’m sorry for my English.
I got X-Star DP2414LED several days ago just to overclock it and compare with my BenQ XL2411Z.
First of all I don’t like this strobed techs like LightBoost, ULMB, BenQ Blur Reduction and etc and I prefer to play fast twitched FPS. (Input lag is noticeable for me with strobe techs i tried LightBoost & BBR).
I’m also don’t need any Sync techs like FreeSync and G-SYNC. (FPS are 250 or more). Same with panel types. TN is enough for me.
No need to discuss this.
Someday I’ve found information about this monitors (QNIX QX2414LED & X-Star DP2414LED) at Blur Busters Forums and decided to try one of them. They are almost equal. The first one released was QNIX QX2414LED 144Hz 1.5ms with DVI-D only. The pros of DVI-D are may be less input lag and better chances to be overclocked. The next released was X-Star DP2414LED 144Hz 1ms with D-SUB/HDMI/DVI-D inputs and advertised ability to 185Hz overclock.
Overclocked to 185Hz and 200Hz. Got some scanlines at top right side of screen. At 200Hz monitor show white screen after 5-10-15 mins :( so I switched to advertised 185Hz. May be 185Hz because it’s stable.
What I can say for sure is that ghosting at 185Hz is much less than at 144Hz. Overdrive isn’t aggressive if exist :)
I’ve disassembled monitor to view at panel and scaler.
Panel is AUO M240HW01 V8. It’s same as in XL2411Z and in most of 24” 144Hz monitors.
Scaler (processor/main board) is different. May be it’s MST 2403 (MSTAR) - info from EDID.
Default 144Hz timings are:
"1920x1080" 328,890 1920 1968 2000 2080 1080 1084 1089 1098 +hsync +vsync
For XL2411Z timings are:
"1920x1080" 325,080 1920 1944 1976 2056 1080 1083 1088 1098 +hsync +vsync
At 200Hz horizontal scan rate (horizontal frequency) is ~220 kHz and pixel clock is 456 MHz.

I need someone who can read Korean and say for sure is there any options to change overdrive setting in OSD? :) album with manual http://imgur.com/a/J6Dqz

Not sure
Hard to say is it better or worse than BenQ XL2411Z. Need some more game sessions.
Shipping to Saint Petersburg, Russia from South Korea took 5 days. Well done EMS. Good packaging and speed.
