benchmark: Viewsonic vx2268wm vs. iiyama vision master pro 454

– vx2268 has on screen display
– vx2268 has speakers (not great but their nice for what they are)
– vx2268 has almost no backlight bleed (i see none)
– vx2268 has a crappy stand since they added the ability to lean it forward and backward, so if you have a wobbly table it will suck4u
– vx2268 allows you to change brightness/contrast in 120hz
– vx2268 pre-driver installation doesn’t allow you to run 120hz in non-native resolution, only 1680×1050.. i cba to install them yet
– vx2268 has 0ms input lag :) -> http://nvcgamer.eu/images/vx2268 <-
– vx2268 actually looks equal too, if not better than the crt… moving the mouse in small circles and looking at quake live adverts looks the same, and watching people on dm17 bouncepads @ quakelive (crt give's a colour blur, lcd doesn't)

will test other games and stuff later

hope that helps :)

buying tuesday. details to follow.

– vx2268 has 0ms input lag :) -> http://nvcgamer.eu/images/vx2268 <-

Nope, it has a <1ms input lag, but not 0.

I remember when I bought a tv card to play Gamecube on my PC screen. The tv card product summary said "zero input lag", when it was something like 20ms. Zero means zero, not "just a little". I know that <1ms vs. 0ms doesn't make much of a difference, but "0ms" is simply false.

And yes, I’m bitter because I didn’t get my money back.

Feels like this is too cheap to be any good. 300€ for a “good” monitor? Unheard of. On the other hand, if someone sane and trustworthy can verify the goods, it might be a good->great deal. So far, cheap and shitty TN-panels has cost 250-450€ depending on brand and selection, “real” panels has been 650-1100€. Professional panels 2000€+

It’s a shitty panel (TN, not 8bit, bad color reproduction, bad viewing angles), but if you only care about gaming it’s a good buy. I’m waiting for an E-IPS panel with 120hz and low input lag (E-IPS is much like a normal IPS panel, which are seen as the best panels on the market, but cheaper to produce).

+1, but i have never seen an IPS panel with close to 0 input lag, and people who game and do the only other thing that benefits an IPS panel, graphics design, usually have a dual monitor setup using a TN panel to play games, and an IPS panel to do graphics design.

so my iiyama e2407hds has only 2 ms input lag but ofc its only 60hz. so its the 120 hz that makes it so much better right? just wondering because youre bragging so much about that zero input lag

Cheers so far nvc! but I got another question, would be great if you could give us an answer on this too. how good is the interpolation on this TFT? since I cba to upgrade my HD2900Pro I’d choose to play some games with 1440×900 (or 1280×800). does it lose alot of sharpness and does it effect the response or input lag delay in any way?

oh I just read that I should just image scale the game into the native res. how does it effect the performance then? hopefully not much because my HD2900P is already being carried by my E8500 ;>
