Hi. I know that the samsung 2233rz is an old model but that's what I'm looking to purchase. I want to get some feedback on let's call it "input lag theory" ...
I've noticed that nearly every review site focuses on the "average" input lag readings. Here's my concern: if we neglect to consider the impact of the "bottom end" reading or the "worst" reading we may fail to judge the true impairment our screen's lag is producing (in relation to hardcore gaming of course)
In the case of the 2233rz the readings tend to be somewhere in between 10 and 15ms avg. Now that sounds great but unfortunately it seems to produce a 30 or 32ms lag on its bottom end. Now, if that measurement comes up say, 5 or 20 times in a second, I would be concerned. But then, of course, if it were to come up only once after 2 or 3 seconds I doubt it would be cause for concern.
The samsung 2233rz seems to be one of the few gaming monitors that has such a high bottom end, but again how frequent is the monitor producing that bottom end?

I don't know the specifics on how input lag is measured so I hope the tech experts can weigh in and help me find some comfort in this purchase I'm likely to make soon.
Thanks
