This was posted days same day I got the PS3 3d display. Obvious title. One reply.
Hey Save, sent you an email. Just giving you a heads up so you know to look in case you stop by SRK first.
Hi all. 2 more hdtvs have been reviewed, which have 16ms of input lag:
Panasonic TX-P42S30B http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/news/panasonic-tx-p42s30b-p42s30-201112231578.htm
Samsung UE32D5000 http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/news/samsung-ue32d5000-ue40d5000-201112121567.htm
Cheers, added to list.
This thread is awesome, although I’m going to join in with the chorus of posters asking about different input types. I just picked up the avermedia game capture HD and thought it was a bit odd that it only supports component connections, but I’m on the market for a new monitor/TV anyway, so would it be best just to get a “lagless” converter to upscale from component, or are there actually lagless component inputs on some of these monitors?
Edit: I don’t have an extra $500 to spend on something like the DVDO Edge converter.
Normally people never test the component input on these displays though (Most of the monitors do not support component anyway).
I think your best bet would be trying to find a component to hdmi converter so you can have a setup such as this.
Console —Component— Game Capture HD — Component — Component to HDMI Converter (Like the one linked below) — Digital Display
Note: You should ask in the streaming / recording thread if this or other Component to HDMI converters are recommended.
Thanks. Also, is it just me or do almost all of the TV’s on the first page only exist in the UK?
Sadly, due to the site being based in the U.K they only write the U.K model number.
However, I have updated first post by adding more corresponding U.S models.
Also, I would not buy a new TV right now with CES right around the corner. It is when all manufacturers show off their new range for 2012. Best to hold off to see what new stuff they bring to the table, and to even get lower price on some of these models that well than be superseded.
trying to figure out if i should get this monitor Asus VS239H http://www.asus.com/Display/LCD_Monitors/VS239H/
i hear that ips displays do lag more than tns if that’s what its called.
I tried using a HDMI to DVI cable and my U2312HM could not get any signal from the Xbox. Wonder if a HDMI to DVI adapter would make any difference.
huh really? u sure that the dvi cable is of the right sort?
When i bought my samsung 2233rz it didnt include a dvi cable that supported 120 hz.
theres alteast 3 different dvi cables.
Anyway im planning on buying a second monitor.
And its between these,
Asus ve228H (cheapest and with speakers, hdmi. 21.5’’)
LG ips231p (speakers but no hdmi. 23’’ in test it has quite abit of ghosting so that could be a turnoff)
Dell u2312hm (0.6 ms input lag sounds abit too good to be true, would be awsome if it really has that. 23’’ too.no speakers or hdmi tho not so much ghosting.)
All of em is in the same pricerange.
and the number one thing i care about is input lag. according to tftcentral site the dell u2312 has 0.6 ms input lag. sounds crazy.
it would be nice with a monitor that never jumps over 16 ms input lag because that can skrew up timings.
My 2233rz is on the edge of sub1 frame and it probably jumps over 1 frame sometimes.
ive seen some dude had a asus ve228h in this forum. do you experience ghosting?
Ensure that it’s HDMI to DVI and not DVI to HDMI. It seems silly, but they only work one way (ymmv).
Currently I have a plasma 50 inch connected to my Onkyo NR509 receiver. Cannot find the response time for my tv (LG 50PZ550), but the LGPZ850 has 150ms response time, so I guess it’s the same for mine. Iv been playing this setup for 6 months now. Time to switch fast right?
If you wanted to be really technical, The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 don’t send in a perfect 30/60 fps. It’s actually 29.97/59.94 frames per second.
Of course, we are not testing through the consoles, and you can set a PC to run in a specified hz. But it’s something to keep in mind.
Something else to keep in mind is that the input on the monitor may also differ from other inputs on the same monitor.
Has anyone tested out the Samsung P2770H 27" monitor to see if the lag on this monitor is good or bad.
Response time does not equate to input delay.
“Response time is the amount of time a pixel in an LCD monitor takes to go from one value to another and back again. It is measured in milliseconds (ms). Lower numbers mean faster transitions and therefore fewer visible image artifacts.” - Wikipedia
Input delay is the amount of time that passes between when the monitor receives the signal for the image and when the monitor actually displays the image.
For those of us in the U.S. who cannot get a Panasonic TX-P50S20B, is the TC-P50S30 also sub-1 frame lag? I can find the TC-P50S30 readily available at Best Buy, and it’s currently $100 at Costco. Any input would be appreciated.
anyone have informations about the ACER V233H ?
I own the PA238Q Asus monitor and I think it’s a better choice. It’s an IPS monitor with excellent PQ and very low input lag measured at 2.2ms if I recall correctly. I have played alot of fighters on the thing and I’ve perceived no lag whatsoever. Also ghosting is practically non-existent which makes it a good monitor for gaming in general.
