I think GPU manufacturers just decided that since games aren't becoming much more demanding we should all run them faster so we have to buy new cards. And convinced the monitor manufacturers that this would be cool.<br /><br /> Reported response times are always bullshit but TNs will always be quicker than IPSes. If you're good enough at FPSes for this to matter then it will matter. A bit.<br /><br /> IPSes are <em>much</em> better at colours but shit at blacks. TNs are better at blacks but pretty shit at colours (though they're much better than they used to be).<br /><br /> I'd go with the IPS (I have a Dell IPS too and it's lovely).<br /><br /> But why not just plug both in and then you can run the game on whichever you like.<br /><br /> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41737.5&return_msg=41737.2" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41737.5"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41737_6"></a><div class="message" id="message_41737_6"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Wattsy (SLAYERPUNX)<span class="message_time"> 4 May 2016 16:07</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: koswix <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 4 May 2016 18:08"></span></span> <span class="message_count">6 of 33</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41737.6">41737.6</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41737.2#a41737_4" target="_self">41737.4</a></div> <div class="message_body"> My reaction times are the same now as there were when I was a...<br /><br /> <gets hit by a slow flying moth><br /> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41737.6&return_msg=41737.2" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41737.6"> <span class="rating">+2/2</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41737_7"></a><div class="message" id="message_41737_7"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Wattsy (SLAYERPUNX)<span class="message_time"> 4 May 2016 16:08</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: Drew (X3N0PH0N) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 4 May 2016 16:10"></span></span> <span class="message_count">7 of 33</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41737.7">41737.7</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41737.2#a41737_5" target="_self">41737.5</a></div> <div class="message_body"> Thank you Xen, thats my plan for the weekend.</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41737.7&return_msg=41737.2" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41737.7"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41737_8"></a><div class="message" id="message_41737_8"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: Drew (X3N0PH0N)<span class="message_time"> 4 May 2016 16:11</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: Wattsy (SLAYERPUNX) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 5 May 2016 07:34"></span></span> <span class="message_count">8 of 33</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41737.8">41737.8</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41737.2#a41737_6" target="_self">41737.6</a></div> <div class="message_body"> It's shocking innit.
