I recently got a NEC 2470 and really did not like it for gaming, had lots of mouse laag in UT2004, is the BenQ FP241VW likely to be any better?

I will only be using the monitor for my pc, so any recomendations would be welcome, I mainly play fps games.

Thanks in advance.
 
I'm not entire sure but I don't think mouse lag as anything to do with the display you are using... are you referring to ghosting?
 
it dont have much ghosting just slight motion blur on fast turns in games, but its the mouse laag thats the really annoying part.
 
If you don't like lag, the only 1920x1200 monitor I can recommend is the 23" Apple Cinema Display. Every 24"-27" LCD monitor seems to lag except for the ones with TN panels like the Samsung 245BW, but TN panels have horrible colors and viewing angles compared to the S-IPS panel in the Apple.

Holyshit, Apple? Cinema Display? It's a joke right?

Subpar specs for a display that cost that much. Plus response time is 14ms check out http://www.apple.com/displays/specs.html.

You want a great display: BenQ FP241W.
 
It's not a joke. You obviously don't know what lag is, so why did you respond? The BenQ FP241W has two frames of lag.

First of all, you know nothing about what I know.

Second of all I own both.

BenQ is by far better in all aspects.


(Got screwed by Apple's supposedly better quality)
 
Been reading through the various threads, its making the decision even harder!

So I got a choice of the BenQ 24, Apple 23 or the Eizo S2411W..

Then why did you respond the way you did? I don't deny that the BenQ is a better value, but we're talking about lag here. The Apple has virtually no lag while the BenQ has two frames (30+ ms). I don't know how much lag the NEC 2470 has, but I'd bet it's also two frames. The BenQ wouldn't be an improvement. The only other option would be the Samsung 245BW, but TN panels are horrible compared to both the Apple and the BenQ.

The Eizo also has at least two frames of lag. That I know for sure.

damn i feel pretty stuck on deciding now what to get any new monitors upcoming in June that might be worth getting?
 
The two frame lag only apply to the Senseye feature of the BenQ FP241VW not the BenQ FP241W.

If you read correctly I am talking about BenQ FP241W. As it stand right now, it's the best 24" monitor for the price period. The Senseye feature is neat but it does introduce somewhat of a lag and a 12ms response time. The ghosting on the W is very limited and very hard to notice, if I compare it to my Dell 2405 or my Apple it's day and night. Senseye is supposed to eliminate ghosting but the price to pay a bit step.
 
I got crazy mouse lag in UT04 with 2007wfp until I turned off vsync. That's one thing to try if you haven't already.

Have you measured th input lag on your 241W? I wonder if the W is in the same category as WZ or as this LG 246WP?
