But I checked the Benq product page and it says all of their recent monitors use displayport 1.2 ports. But you said that the Benqs are all displayport 1.1 (except the XL2730Z). If they were really DP 1.2, I should have 8 bit color up to 600+mhz and should not have a 480 MHz hard pixel clock limit

Did Benq unintentionally lie or is it just because a DP 1.2 cable works in a 1.1 port?

DisplayPort can run at different speeds. The monitor and video card must support HBR2 (high bit rate 2) mode to go beyond 360/480 MHz.
