I think response time is only part of the equation though, monitor lag is the other, and depending on the refresh rate the difference becomes greater as the MHz goes up. From everything I have read, if you put a 1ms monitor next to a 5ms monitor some people can notice a difference. But that's the crux of it... SOME people notice a difference. I think it would be interesting to put our various monitors together maybe even running off the same machine (I will offer mine up since I have dual cards) and compare what different monitors look like running the same game. It might be interesting to see if we notice a difference at all. My monitor runs at 1ms. But I can tell you that even though it's rated at 1ms I would love something with better screen colors and resolution. The trade off between speed and color rendering is pretty big. What does it matter how fast your monitor refreshes if you can't SEE your opponent? Does anyone in the group have an IPS display?
