Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Good day to you, owners of the U2414
I am looking for a new GAMING screen. I will be playing MMO's and RPG's on this screen. For a 60hz screen, is this one decent in the blur department? As in, not much worse as a regular TN panel?
I've owned a Dell U2312HM and the blurring was kinda...
You'll have to watch out for the right model though:
Update: As of July 2013 the XL2411T has been upgraded to the new flicker-free (PWM free) ‘Revision 2.0′. The P/N associated with this is 9H.L9SLB.DBE.
Afaik, the XL2411T is PWM-free too AND it is as good as the XL2420T when it comes to ghosting and trailing. In fact, it's slightly better afaik.

There is still some inverse ghosting etc but even the more expensive Asus VG248QE has that problem...
What about this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/AOC-E2752VQ-Widescreen-Multimedia-Monitor/dp/B008CM7OR0
I found it via digitalversus face-off: http://www.digitalversus.com/lcd-monitor/face-off/14445-14523-versus-table.html
The image shows zero ghosting, was thinking about ordering one for my...
Yeah, I read your blog all the time. Often feel like I'm part of the 1% that has trouble with this stuff.
To be honest though, I consider PWM artifacts to be much worse than just blurring. Not to say I don't have a problem with the blurring pictures you linked above me, but the PWM artifacts...

In this review, you can see ghosting isn't that good @60hz. No idea if the 11T is any better.
Does anyone know this?
I'm talking about ghosting, of course. Which monitor is the fastest in that area? I've seen a couple of tests in here: http://wecravegamestoo.com/forums/monitor-reviews-discussion/12771-dell-u2713h-review-2560x1440-wide-gamut-ah-ips.html. This 700D seems to have zero...
About to order XL2411T so one final question:
I assume you should enable 120hz (or is it 144?) always? Even if you only get 61fps? And v-syc is not required anymore, right?
I see. At 100% brightness, does it disappear though? I'm currenlty using a cheap laptop and even on 100% brightness, you can see the trail on the test(s) you linked. Of course, this is a cheap laptop with an even cheaper screen.
Are there any PWM-free 60hz (TN) screens? Don't want to buy...
I'm back again!

Check this video (XL2411T response set). Is this normal? Clearly, there is still a shaky trail with white on black. For some reason, I expected this to be gone on these screens.
So, if I understand it:
I should use 144Hz on desktop usage (almost every card can run it at that setting with a decent graphics card?)
And then 120hz on games? It doesn't matter if I can't run it at 120fps right? I should notice an improvement at 70fps etc, I take it?
The BenQ XL2411T is cheaper here. Does it NOT have PWM dimming on 60Hz? I was looking at PWM artifacts on your blog and it certainly looks like the problem my current Asus VN247H suffers from. I don't even have to drag my cursor that fast to see it.
Question: does the BenQ have any downsides...
