And This Lag Input And The Grey To Grey??
Thanks, that helps a lot!
Your video card is very good for 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz, giving you a solid 60 FPS max. For what I've read it might be capable to run a 144 Hz monitor reasonably well, too, at the same resolution. That would raise your max FPS to 144. A faster monitor makes fast moving objects more life like since it shows more subtle movements. Think about drawing a circle using 60 straight lines against the same drawn with 144 straight lines.
Another option is to stay at 60 Hz but raise the resolution. Your GTX1060 is well capable for a 2560x1440 (or 2560x1600 if you can find one). That's something I know by own experience using a GTX970 which is roughly as powerful as yours. A higher resolution will give you a more detailed image.
I just did a test flight with V-sync off to see how high and low my system will go. Over the sea I got 175 FPS at the max, above 150 in average. Strafing the smoking field on the deck the FPS dropped as low as 11 until the ack got me! However, I've got a decade old Core2Duo as processor which may affect dealing with multiple polygons and my video drivers are outdated due to compatibility issues. Guess it would be due time to get a new rig at some point... Anyhow, that little test proved what I wanted to know: Plenty of oomph in most situations, in high polygon areas such as a furball over a smoking field there may be a drop.
This simple calculation will give you a benchmark for comparison: Resolution x Refresh Rate. So if we assume that your card can do well with 2560x1440x60=221184000, 1920x1080x144=298598400 would be a tougher job by almost a half but 1920x1080x100 would be at the same ballpark.
Grey to grey... I'd say 5 Ms and below is good enough. Simplified that tells how long it takes for a white dot to go back to black. Movement on the screen happens when adjacent pixels change colour. If the previous pixels stay somewhat lit you'll see a fading tail following moving images. Black to black would be ideal for comparison, but for marketing purposes they prefer grey to grey which is a shorter time, from "when the white dot starts to separate from a grey background until it blends back in" and not saying how light grey the grey is!
Input lag tells how long it takes for an image to travel from your computer to be visible on the screen. Many TV sets have all sorts of image enhancing technology which can add a significant lag. When connected to a PC all such enhancers should be turned off. On some TV's it happens automatically, on some others the setting is hidden under many sub-menus. There's charts in the Internet telling exact model numbers, Google is your friend.
Last but not least: Size doesn't matter! As you can see in the formula above, it's only about resolution and refresh rate. Those two determine the load on your system no matter what the screen diameter is. Size is only relevant when compared to your desk and room.
