@Deany Nasseri - IPS is slower redraw rate than a TN panel, that's it's only "pro" well that an price. But here's some basic math for you....
1000ms / 6ms = ~166 updates a second
That's a pretty good number to me, so as you can see, figures like 4,3,2 are just pointless marketing figures. My IPS is 16ms so that gets me
1000ms / 16ms = 62
Once you do the math, you realize that even 16 isn't a high number
PS: I don't experience any ghosting, but then I don't game on this setup, it's for coding, and as stated in my first post, my monitor is from 2004.
The IPS LCD Revolution
When I wrote about TN LCD panels 5 years ago, I considered them acceptable, despite their overall mediocrity, mostly due to the massive price difference. Unfortunately, the vast majority of LCDs on the market now are TN. You can opt to pay a little bit more for one of the few models with *VA ...
Reading this from my 23" 1920x1200 IPS, which was made in 2004, because I haven't found anything to replace it yet. And if you really want to dive down the rabbit hole, I use it pivoted/rotated so I'm actually on a really tall 1200x1920 which is awesome for coding and web surfing, as both of which are tall layouts, not wide.
I'm the envy of all my office nerds (I use my person monitor at work).
