larkin said:That's just false. My monitor and case were the last items i purchased because it took the longest to research (about 4 months). I read the internal specs documents for monitors and learned how the measurements are taken. The old way of measuring is white to black to white, otherwise knows as "rise and fall time" or Tr+Tf. Your dell monitor, just like samsung and about everyone else in the industry measures their responce time as the average grey-to-grey. The dell is rated at 16ms, from dell's website "Pixel Response Time (Gray to Gray): 16 milliseconds". I spent about 2 hours on the phone with samsung to find the actuall rise and fall responce time and the actuall grey-to-grey responce. I had to get transfered to senior 3rd teir tech staff who talked with the korean manufacturers and then called me back with the info the next day. The rise and fall number is 12ms, which is better than the dell's 'filthy and disgusting grey-to-grey marketing' number of 16ms. Your dell rise and fall is probabbly around 30ms if you want to play uber speculator game.
My mistake. I obviously should have researched more before posting. Someone I know who claims to be an authority on the subject blamed the substitution of grey to grey instead of white to black to white on samsung.
*Need to not take people for their word and do some research myself*
