These are TVs not monitors... :confused:

The response time and input lag are totally different things: The response time is how long it takes a pixel to change from one color to another (usually measured in grey to grey), and this is the 6ms figure. This is low enough now that it makes little difference to most people. Input lag...

There probably is color shift, but it is really much less noticeable than on my 2405fpw PVA monitor. Maybe Sony used an IPS panel, although I doubt it seeing as they are pretty much committed to PVA along with Samsung.

I'm pretty sure my Sony LCD is a S-PVA (might be wrong), and it has absolutely PERFECT viewing angles, and delivers a stunning picture. I think PVA is the technology of choice for TVs and maybe for PC displays if you only want to game and browse, whereas IPS offers perfect quality at expense of...

Old new then, sorry :rolleyes: Looks like a good choice of cheap monitor, although I guess we'll have to wait for the reviews.

I may be wrong, but I'm not sure you would notice the lag with console gaming as it is not as much of a 'twitch' sport as PC gaming, where you always notice a mouse delay. I think you would be fine on the input lag front, as I can't feel any delay on my LCD HDTV, which has always felt fine to...

I'm pretty sure burn-in is now not much of an issue, unless you leave it running the same stuff day in day out (like in airports etc). If you're gaming then I doubt burn-in will be an issue at all. PS I'm not in a great position to advise you on TVs, as in the UK and Europe in general, the...

Agreed! Found it here: http://www.onsale.com/shop/detail.aspx?dpno=7263599&store=onsale&source=BWBPRICEGRAB&srccode=cii_5784816&cpncode=17-6342196-2&wt.mc_id=BWBPRICEGRAB Tiny bit overbudget, but that would make one awesome gaming display imo ;) Doesn't seem to have HDMI or many...

Yeah I'm not sure the pic is a great representation, and it's hardly fair to compare an expensive 30" IPS to a 24" TN either, but I just wanted to show people the difference. PS. Sorry my pic is so rubbish, I'm no photographer :D

Here's IPS for comparison :D

Yeah Hardforum's greys are one of the toughest colours for monitors to produce. On more bright colours, you probably wouldn't notice the effect, unless the colour took up the whole screen. PVA also has problems with greys like you said, in that it has a similar thing to the TN panel but in a...

That colour darkening towards the top looks pretty drastic to me! :eek: Is the picture bad, or is it really like that in normal use? If so, TN is definately not for me!

Pretty amazing deal lol :D Unfortunately my Dell P1100 is complete trash now, its colours and contrast are completely wrong, and there are horizontal green lines running across the screen. Shame :( But your one sounds great, must be a pretty record deal, a high quality CRT for $5! ;)

I don't really understand... :confused: If you only game on consoles why not get a 1080p tv? I know you say they are too expensive but over here in UK TV's are much cheaper than monitors. For example: http://www.digitaldirect.co.uk/products_moreinfo3/index.asp?product_id=13147 I know...

Great review, how do the 24" TNs compare to a PVA/IPS panel for general day to day use and gaming?
