Response Time Differences

[HisoKa]

just wondering some of u might gimme some feedback... is there any real noticeable difference between 8ms and 4ms and 3ms panel in gaming...? (im not talking about benchmark or whatsoever... what i wanted to know is the real world difference by human eyes) cheers guys!

if those numbers are not exaggerations or other weasely way to minimize the facts, NO.
You won't see 8ms and below ghosting, or 12ms, for that matter... even at true 16ms.
With true measurements, anything below 16ms is great.

thx for the quick reply! 😀 so... do you think i should opt for those 8ms monitor and save few hundred bucks... or just go ahead with 4ms and below...? im still confused here... cuz i play games like 80% of my time so i supposed that response time is the most important for me compared to other features like contrast ratio etc... 🙁

If u play games usually like u say %80, u should get a 4 ms or <4ms lcd..
For example Vx922 has 2ms response time (2 ms g-t-g, 2 ms b-w-b)
I suggest u to take a look at that lcd. If u play games like that percents, then I don't suggest u 12 or 16ms response time.. Btw what ll u use the %20 for ?

other 20% will be for browsing and instant messaging/chatting hahah, and... maybe abit of microsoft word..?

I use a Dell 2405FPW with a X1800XT and game about 5 to 10 percent of the time... I gotta work and post here too.
My monitor is rated 12ms but Toms clocked it at closer to 20ms.
Either way, it plays Doom 4, FEAR and others fukinfantabulously to my eyes!!

hmm... so it should be a safe choice if i decided to purchase existing 8ms panels and save a few hundreds? cuz i really wanna save some if i could... for future am2 😀 but yea... if 4ms is really superior and can contribute alot more to my gaming experience... i will not hesitate though...

Are you anally obsessed with minor faint obscurities that 90% of the population can not detect?
If so, get the 4ms one.
If ultimate perfection is not at the very core of you existence, then save some cache.
