LCD monitors are still pretty expensive for most gamers, and the slow pixel response rate often creates an effect called "ghosting," where images from fast-moving games tend to blur across the screen. Well LG Electronics has made all of that a thing of the past, with its new gaming flat panel monitors featuring 8 millisecond response times and a special chip they call the "fENGINE".

The fENGINE is an actual microchip on the flat panel's internal hardware that monitors the incoming image and then enhances it before displaying it. Colors are made more vibrant, darks darker, and lights lighter, which increases apparent contrast. When the technology was initially being explained to me I was skeptical - I thought a separate piece of hardware processing the image after a high-end video card had already gotten to it would slow down games. That simply wasn't the case; one of LG's Directors, Kim Way, enabled and disabled the fENGINE chip while I was watching an intensive ATI graphics card demo and then playing Unreal Tournament 2004 and Far Cry. There wasn't even a hiccup, only a dramatic increase in visual quality that isn't done justice by the split-view screenshot below.

Wow… Looks promising for LCD’s in general as they get better and better. All those improvements in technology are awesome but tough on the pocketbook if you try and keep up!

I’ve owned my BenQ FP931 for about three weeks now and despite the inherent short comings of LCD’s in general I would never go back to my old back breaking IBM 19” CRT.

By the time I’m ready for a new monitor in about 2-5 years I wonder how much the monitor landscape might have changed by then.

The future looks very cool!
 
^^ yea i cant wait for OLED monitors (technology in general) comes out mainstream. then were going to see some REALLY impressive stuff at a REALLY impressive price. and no, i dont mean more strain on the pocketbook. :D
