MOBIUZ, The Official Gaming Monitor of Ultimate Summer Showdown

“NASCAR Heat 5 has a strong, active community full of great racers and we cannot wait to give them another opportunity to showcase their talent on one of the biggest stages. The Ultimate Summer Showdown promises to build on the momentum of the recent Winter Heat Series,” commented Jay Pennell, General Manager, eNASCAR Heat Pro League, Motorsport Games. “We are delighted to welcome BenQ as a partner for the series and look forward to working closely with the team to promote the races.”

BenQ is a global leader in display technology, known for extraordinary color performance and groundbreaking monitor audio advancement. The company debuted the MOBIUZ gaming monitor series in 2020 to rave reviews and the newest model, EX3415R, has been engineered for high-end gaming audio-visual performance.

With the MOBIUZ EX3415R curved gaming monitor, BenQ answers the question of how far the limits of sim-racing immersion can be pushed. This monitor acts as a virtual windshield that teleports you to the races of your dreams with performance that blows your mind. The massive 34-inch IPS panel with 1900R curvature wraps your field of view, perfectly simulating the driver’s first-person vantage point. Image optimizers, including the newly introduced Racing Mode, put you in the driver’s seat and let you control the way your display looks for a truly customized performance. A 144Hz High Refresh Rate and 1ms Response Time take every turn with ease. Lastly, because it’s just not the same without cheering fans and revving engines, the treVolo audio system surrounds you with a wall of powerful sound. These innovations elevate the world of sim racing to a more life-like experience.

“BenQ is excited to partner with Motorsport Games to connect with racing fans and deliver the immersive driving thrills and experiences they crave,” said Jason Lee, BenQ America LCD Business Head. “Just as pro drivers demand the best in their equipment, we strive to provide sim-racing enthusiasts with an ultrawide curved gaming monitor that delivers all the intensity and immersion of being on the track.”
