Something that seems to be missed a lot in the reviews is Input Lag or it's just me that has only noticed this issue. I wish every LCD test out there would also test for this & not just mention it as a flaw in current non-120Hz panel. Mobious mentioned that the older 244T had extreme problems with this & I looked it up. It’s a huge problem all around IMNSHO & would be really hard for me & my current build. I am a sim racer & have raced in the world championships in previous seasons & still hold a few hot lap records at find the limit. I take it seriously I guess:shrug:
After a few years, well 5 years:eek:, of sticking with my current system I am in the market with a mediocre budget of building a gaming rig that will also be used for work & multimedia. I do not live in the USA but in a 3rd world country. Delayed products releases & poor RMA issues coupled with no return no exchange policies forces me to make sure each item is exactly what I need with the highest reliability required, mistakes are going to be costly to say the least.
I need a monitor & after reading about input lag, things are getting harder. I would prefer a 24" because of the higher resolution of 1920X1200 so initially I was looking at the 245BW which is priced well locally. The 245T with all its bells & whistles look to be higher end monitor but with its "For Business" marketing strategy I am hesitant with its gaming ability. Both units will have to be ordered without me being able to test it & will have to purchase it on delivery. There is no Dell here priced competitively against Acer, BenQ, LG, and Samsung so they are out of the question. Viewing angle isn't a big concern either. I can go 22" if it will outperform a 24" even with the lower resolution but I'm still on the fence about stepping down to 22".
I’m all ears guys:beer:
