IPS monitor for Acer KG251QF

[Heran]

Hi,

I'm planning to buy budget gaming monitor with following requirements:
*Lower response time(<5ms)
*Display port

For the budget and my requirements I found Acer KG251QF gaming monitor. It has a display port and 1ms response time. So far so good. But I found out that this specific monitor has a TN panel. Which is not so great compared to IPS.

So my question is can somebody suggest me gaming monitors with above requirements?
*1ms response time
*Display Port input
*IPS panel
*Budget around he price of Acer KG251QF

Thanks

1. IPS is slower than TN panels. Most IPS panels will be in the 3-5 ms range. I’ve never seen a 1 ms IPS panel.

2. IPS panels are more expensive than TN panels. For the same price, something has to give.

3. That Acer panel is 144Hz and freesync. Are those important to you? How high do you want the refresh rate to be?

4. Prices vary significantly by location. Do yo have any preferred retailers?

Actually I don't see any noticeable difference between 144Hz and lower. That's not important to me. What i'm worried about is TN panel. IPS looks much brighter and colourful. Currently I have Viewsonic VA1918wm which has a TFT panel. I have no problem with that. Switching from that to that acer monitor would make much difference.

I’ve been on vacation, so sorry this is so late. Monitors are very personal, and I don’t know where you are, but here’s one place to start-

If you can, I recommend going into a store and choosing the monitor that looks best to you in your price range.
