IPS vs TN gaming monitor

[PCnerd21]

Hello, I am building my first gaming PC and I was wondering if I would notice the difference of the response times and hz with these monitors? I am using the Asus directcu ii 780 and the i5 4690k. Thanks for the help!

Well a TN monitor has a quicker response time of 1ms atmost and the hz of a TN can be quicker than an IPS panel.

TN:
-A TN panel can support up to 144hz refresh rate whereas a IPS can have 60hz
-higher response time of 1ms and IPS 5ms (not much difference imo)
-with your 780 may be beneficial to see all those frames as you could push higher than 60hz

IPS:
-great viewing angles, you can see up to 70 degrees without the image warping or changing colour
-better colours and sharper images, looks much better than a TN panel
-Higher brightness or contrast, backlight. so you can see the screen better.

Personally I own an IPS monitor, and to me 5ms is just fine compared to 1ms. The colours are very nice and even though you have a 780 and could push higher frames. You could go a 1440p IPS display which would look amazing.
Also usually TN panels are cheaper than IPS.

Hey thanks so my 780 would benefit more with the TN than the IPS monitor right?

Yes it would, unless you spend a little more on a 1440p monitor but at 1080p the 780 most of the time would push more than 60fps. It's personal preference, whether you will actually notice the extra viewable fps or would rather better image quality.

You can only get 120hz and 144hz on TN panels, but it comes at the cost of bad viewing angles and not so good colors. The response time will, of course, be faster on TN panels, and it will look smoother not only because of the increased frames but because there is minimal to no ghosting on TN panels
