TV or Monitor

i did read it, and obviously my grasp of the english language is a much better than yours. that p.o.s. 120hz monitor was lagging behind a basic dell monitor.

Yes you have displayed your total misunderstanding of written language. Let me check: Just a couple of posts ago you stated that I won't find a monitor that does less than 25ms of input lag. Now you claim that the Dell desktop monitor is faster than the 'as close to zero as measuring device goes' input lag Eizo is?



Also you gracefully missed all the explanation of frame doubling and how the panel actually does 240hz but is limited by the DVI/DP spec?

  I've read this superficial 'test' and couldn't even find the word 'dell' in it

He was referring to the very throrough test I linked and which he failed to understand.

He didn't understand the concept of frame doubling:



Nor the actual meaning of this text albeit I admit the word structure is not very clear:

Lastly, we just wanted to include a quick note about input lag. Eizo says “1.5 frame of input lag or less”, which we are inclined to believe. Our testing gave us a small range of measurements in the very low end of milliseconds close to zero, which is probably due to small inaccuracies with our testing equipment. Input lag is virtually zero based on our testing. This is obviously great for gaming, but just compared side-by-side to a typical Dell office monitor it is actually noticeable when moving the mouse around on the desktop.

He had made up his mind already that I must be wrong so he interpreted without logic that when a virtually zero lag monitor is compared to a desktop Dell, the noticed difference must be in favor of the regular monitor. At no point does the text make that claim but the opposite.

But better for him. He can use his 120 buck Dell and believe it's much better than the 700 dollar Eizo

I had a similar friend, he swore that his regular 7+ yo dell (terrible screen, the Y axis wasn't even synced correctly) had less input lag that my Iliyama E2607WS that I chose especially for its low input lag. And he wouldn't read anything on the subject.

His monitor eventually died so he switched to a BenQ I chose for him, after feeling the difference in street fighter his mindset changed.
