Looking to buy this monitor. Has great reviews but I'm worried about the 6ms response time. It is an IPS panel though...
Will this be good with AH?

I recently went from a 5ms monitor to a 1ms monitor. I feel that I notice the difference. Maybe placebo effect but nonetheless I will not go back to a high ms monitor

I'm using a 5ms monitor. No problems.

I got a 1ms monitor major improvment
-
usually 1ms screens are tn panels. the colours are not as nice as the ips panel this one has (better true colours).
I used to play counter strike on a 5ms screen and back than I did pretty well for myself.
I would worry more about the resolution on a 27 inch screen. But than again for that price it's a bargain if you ask me.
I think skuzzy recommended one a few weeks ago. (IPS screen 5 ms)

I have a 32" HP Omen, with 5ms response time, and love it.

My Aon monitor came with software, which from what i could gather does absolutely nothing.
Bizman advised using buttons on screen and using menus to set colour, this worked fine to set up image.
Why they supply extra software is a bit odd
-
The larger the screen the worse a TN screen gets in the edges due to the poor viewing angle.
Also, looking into response times only doesn't necessarily tell the truth. It highly depends on the measuring method. Black to black tells longer but more accurate response times. Grey to grey is much shorter so it's usually used for gaming oriented monitors to fool the customers. Unfortunately the method is rarely told unless you find a review where they have actually measured it and compared it to the manufacturer digits. I just found a review from 2011 about my HP LP3065 30" S-IPS monitor. It told that the grey to grey response is 6 ms and off-on-off a whopping 12 ms. However, I've never experienced any ghosting effects in the games I play, AH maybe being the most fast paced.
I suppose the poster on another forum is right in claiming that the manufacturers use far from scientific and real life compatible methodology varying from model to model and choose the best looking values for marketing purposes. A trustworthy review and your very own eyes are the only reliable ways to tell if a monitor is good or not for your purposes.

Thanks for the input guys!
Originally bought this one...
http://www.microcenter.com/product/484761/VP278QG_27_TN_Gaming_LED_Monitor
This one had some light bleed around the edges and while the colors were good there were some other screen anomalies (bulb lines and such) I wasn't too keen on
Returned that one and got this one....

Colors on this one were awful....
Returned that one and got the Dell in the original post.
Glad I did because this one is better than the Asus and a ton better than the Samsung. Would definitely recommend the Dell with the IPS panel.
