Re: Where are the LED, 120hz, 26"+, ~2ms response monitors?

I was led to believe that LED monitors have better contrast than regular monitors, but I've since learned that is a half truth. Here is an exceptional article on it. http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/content/led_backlighting.htm#different So with that bit of knowledge LED is definitely not an imp...

Ok. For several reasons the TV on newegg I linked to doesn't fit the bill.

Re: Where are the LED, 120hz, 26"+, ~2ms response monitors?

120Hz input is also pointless unless you are a competition FPS gamer (where money is on the line) or are intending to display 3D content on the screen. 120Hz monitors can handle 120Hz on their inputs you don't need LED on small monitors, especially when you are sitting a foot away from it It doesn'...

Re: Where are the LED, 120hz, 26"+, ~2ms response monitors?

Also, I have no idea why you're worrying about 'LED back-lit'. I know it's all the rage and what not, but inexpensive LED backlit displays actually have worse lighting than inexpensive CCFL backlit displays, in general. Cheap LEDs have a smaller range of colors and since displays using them are alm...

TVs with 'Game' modes

My TV does not have a setting that would reduce input lag.

Hmm this is interesting... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16889005144 review quotes Did get lucky with an IPS display more or less the luck of the draw. Cons: There is some color bleeding on the edges, but expected with this size TV. Shows dust quickly. The panel lottery is a do...

Re: Where are the LED, 120hz, 26"+, ~2ms response monitors?

Thanks for looking for me. Your pick is not 120Hz, smaller than what I'm hoping for, and doesn't quote response time. I love IPS panels. Great, even color. I have one now. A 32" Sharp TV. I've been using it as a monitor since Q1 2009. Its just its response time has always bothered me. I don't k...

Where are the LED, 120hz, 26"+, ~2ms response monitors?

I'm thinking what I want isn't on the market yet... 26in or larger LED back-lit ~2 ms response times 120Hz refresh rate color consistency across the entire screen and of course no viewing angle issues 1920 x 1200 (x1080 will do) This would probably be a $500 screen at this time. But surely there's a...
