Best gaming monitor on the market, nothing even gets remotely close. However, when it comes to the blur, keep in mind that the black frame insertion isn't as effective as strobing, which it's often mistaken to be, when it's not. Anyways, you still won't notice the blur, because they're very close to eachother. However, a cheaper say VG248QE with lightboost, is better value strictly for gaming, if you're doing things outside of gaming, such as movies, or well, play a lot of games that requires you to have great shadow detail as opposed to IPS and TN, then that's a good buy, but it's a luxury to say the least.
