Resonse time to DOUBLE soon !

I don't care how fast an LCD is, I'm not paying over $600 just to begin to see 16x12. LCD will only take over when its cheap enough to.
 
Affordability comes with time, as do all good things :D
 
considering that viewsonic is JUST putting out a 12ms panel, you're going to be hard pressed to find a 6ms panel before q4 of next year (just my thought) and it'll be outrageously priced.

cheers,

thank-you thank-you. This is great news if its true.

Yes you do pay extra for flat screens, but you realy need to look at what you get in return:

1. More desk space. Gosh knows I could use it. My 19" trini has one heck of a footprint.

2. Less power usage. The LCD could pay for itself over time in what you save in electricity vs. a normal monitor.

3. Less heat. I often enjoy roasting marshmellows over my trinitron. That thing puts off alota heat. For people like me that have 2+ computers in 1 room, the lower heat is a welcome addition.... er subtraction, to the room.

4. Crystal clear picture quality (native). It seems the only problems the LCD's have these days are ghosting and back-light inconsistancy. They are getting better at the backlighting as they go. Hope they go to LED soon. And once the ghosting is gone, I'm a happy camper. In all honesty, some of the screens out there are fairly good when it comes to ghosting as it is though. But double that performance and it will be even better.

Almost every LCD I have seen has an awsome picture quality, until things start to move. It changes some when outside native, but not to bad. It's that movement that shows their weaknesses (if you want to call it that). There are people that say you need 0ms to be as good as a monitor. I don't think that will be the case, but I guess we will just hafta wait and see.

I can't wait till the new screens come out! Bring on that 6ms goodness :)
 
When you said 'response time to double soon', I was thinking "why the hell would LCDs refresh slower in the future?!" I guess what you meant is that the response time of LCDs will be halved soon :p This is good news.
 
This is good news. Although likely will take a while until they are on the market.

Id liek to see LED backlighting as WELL as improved viewing angles.

Cost is a huge factor, lets face it, we'd all love to be on 23" or 30" panels, but who can afford 2k on an LCD screen. I know I cant!
 
one more thing, dont believe the marketers too much. I have the BEnq 767-12 (12 ms model) and I cant tell the difference between it and the 16ms panels!
 
Don't you mean they will half?

Yes, I did mean half. 12ms / 2 = 6ms that is double. The lower
the number the better the RT just to clarify for the noob.

so let me go over this one more time to be sure:

6 is 12 doubled (ie. 12 x 2 = 6), because 12 : 2 = 6 ??? :D :rolleyes:
 
Of course, I doubt these will be 8 bit panels.. probably 6 bit.. Let me know when they make 8 bit panels this fast and I'll get excited..

You're probably being sarcastic, but if you can run 100m in 20 seconds, then turn around and do it in 10s, you've doubled your speed.

Same thing, different scenario :p
 
Hmmm, I read an article this weekend that mentioned Mitsubishi developing technology with 1 ms refresh rates... hehe

But you halved your time.

Think about it. He's not saying that nothing doubled. He's saying that the RESPONSE TIME, as it says in the title of the thread, is being halved, not doubled. The response time is a measurement of the time it takes for pixels to change colors (roughly) and if that time doubled, your refresh rate would get worse not better. That's all he is arguing. It's very simple.

TN panels are the only ones today that reach sub 16ms response times, without using any specific technique to cut the response time. However, this article specifies a specific technique applied to the panel in some way, not just some linear progress in response times, and I doubt they would waste an expensive technique like that on TN panels (bad colour reproduction, cheap and relatively fast as it is). NEC-Mitsubishi and Samsung also have proprietary response time solutions yet to be introduced on their panels called FFD (Fast Feed Forward) and DCC (Dynamic Capacitance Compensation). However, these 6ms that this Dual Domain Bending achieves is the best to date...
