Re: New monitor advice. An IPS monitor would not be my first chose for gaming.
PROS: Wide viewing angle without darkening Brighter more accurate colors. They are great for viewing static images requiring color accuracy, like photo editing.
CONS: slower response times, resulting in motion blur Not so good for gaming or video.
Dell makes some really nice IPS monitors like the one youre looking at, but its gray-to-gray response time of about 7ms is to slow.
A good gaming monitor should have a gray-to-gray response time of about 2ms. Asus makes some good ones, »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···24236117.
I'm currently using an Asus 27", »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···24236103 With a little tweaking it produces a very good and astonishingly bright picture. |
