I'm looking at getting a new monitor and I have 2 in mind and one has a 1ms and one has a 0.5ms response time and I'm wondering Is there a big difference between 1 and 0.5ms response time?
Thanks that's good to know. I mainly play driving games and a few shooters here and there so I'm not that crazy or super competitive.Not really a big difference at all, But if you are vary competitive in games where response time matter, probably best to go with the faster monitor, you can still be vary competitive with a 1ms monitor as well, but every second can count.
What are the monitors that you are looking at?
I second this. VA tends to cost a tad less for similar specs but the color richness and virtually no ghosting on fast IPS monitors has me putting my dollars towards IPS displays.VA can have bad ghosting effect. IPS is much better, colours are better too. The VA does have better contrast though.
I'd be going IPS.
