response time really matters??

[max_payne32]

Guys i currently game on a 24 inch benQ monitor which has 1 ms response time..however i plan to upgrade to a 27 inches 1080p ips panel ..but the problem is response time of that monitor is 7ms...since it is not a TN panel...i play bf4..cod counterstrike..and many other fps games...would the 7ms response time cause ghosting??? I was thinking of getting this monitor because 1) it is bigger 2) much better image quality than tn panels

Actually not because your eyes won't even be able to notice 6ms difference on screen.

Well you will still have a good time but in competitive Counter Strike matches that 7ms will have a very small impact on your performance. On the other hand the 27 inches 1080p stretch the screen making it easier for you to detect enemies and snipe them from long range. I have 27 inch AOC 1080p, 27 inches is kinda too large for 1080p resolution, it makes movies and stuff kinda too much pixelated, but i prefer it that way for video editing, photography and 3d modeling, to see stuff larger and in detail.

I'm looking for a 144hz monitor myself, but i might get a cheaper 2560x1080 ultrawide 25 inch instead and keep my current AOC 2ms 27inch 1080p as secondary.

No it does not.

"Response time" is just one of those poorly defined measurements that has been ravaged by idiotic marketing departments. I have a 30 inch IPS panel 2560x1600 that I wouldn't trade in for anything.

You obviously don't play competitive Counter Strike: Global Offensive or Call of Duty: Advanced Werfare. If you don't use it for competitive gaming then it isn't an issue.

The reflex of most humans have very similar responce time, if you see an enemy and he sees you at the same time and you both start shooting right after seeing each other, the guy that plays on a 144hz monitor with 2ms will kill the other guy before he even shoots because he will see everything 5 ms later, in CS:GO even 1 ms faster response is enough to survive and kill the other guy first.

at that resolution a 30 inch ips panel will look spectacular...so you saying 1ms to 7ms won't make much of a difference..thanks for your response

You obviously have no idea how networking or mental chronometry work.

Median human response time is around 200 to 250 milliseconds, with the median for college-age individuals around 150 milliseconds.

I play CS:GO quite a bit (although I've been on a break for the past couple of weeks) and do just fine with my display.

i play with 70-80 ms latency when i play online..so with that much latency the 6 ms extra response time still makes a difference?? thank you for your reply

how much pixelated?? if the picture quality gets worse , plus the response time goes higher then i am losing on both ends....however it is a 27 inch IPS panel..and i own a 24 inch TN panel currently...still if I do not notice better image quality then absolutely no point in spending that much money...

Every little bit helps, even turning vertical sync off and especially 144 fps monitor with low responcse time. You should also get an optical connection so you can have 10-40 ms latency in online games.

I tried playing with vertical sync on limiting FPS at 60, and then i turned it off and limited the fps at 300, the difference was very visible especially on kill to death ratio. The GPU reproduces images faster and shows them sooner with vertical sync off, which can determine life or death, great response time especially improve you aim due to monitor reacting to your commands much sooner. It also is more enjoyable to play with very low response time and improved responsivness to your commands.

It is not that bad, if you watch a very high quality video it won't be pixelated and it looks great and perfect. But imagine low quality youtube video stretched on a bigger screen, it will look awfull, even more awfull than on any smaller screen, but that's not a monitor problem, that's the low quality of the video(or picture) problem.

Its not something you can't live without. Again it comes to the personal preference. If you've been playing with it you can have a hard time without it initially , if your playing on the competitive level. If your just a casual gamer , not much of a difference then. As JW (CSGO pro) said "its about getting used to it , if you want to go pro , you may get the best setup, but it does not make that difference until you are playing on that highest competitive level ". Not exactly in quotes though , iirc, but meant the same. Happy fragging , GG.
