Monitor: BenQ XL2420T
Computer: Sager NP9370 Laptop with AMD Crossfire 7970m's (no switchable graphics in this laptop)
Connection used: DisplayPort 1.2 port

In theory, that should work, but this is all experimental, so you'll have to tell us if it works.

Could someone please point me in the right direction? I've been stuck to playing counterstrike on my 60hz laptop screen using 200 saturation in CCC for better in-game distinguishing.

The main problems with LightBoost are low contrast and gamma. The contrast can't really be fixed, and gamma settings don't tend to stick in games. You won't have trouble distinguishing details in dark areas with the default gamma.
