I hate to be THAT guy. But what does this have to do with PC gaming? I understand that you will have thought that posting it here would get more responses. But it is still irrelevant. The mods do not move threads around as they use to and frankly shouldnt have to. I've got a nice Samsung 27" that I play on and have had a brilliant time on. Try looking for a Samsung and you may find the one you like.

Pointless post. Maybe because PC gamers tend to use gaming monitors? Just a thought...

When you're a competitive gamer spending $3000 a setup you tend to go for a good monitor...

No. Simple because it does not even state it's specs.

I suggest [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] it's the one I currently use.

1ms response time is amazing. But look for something between 1-5ms delay or it will look choppy.
