Title: LCD Monitor Help, which one of these 27" 2ms Monitors for Mame Rig?
Post by: bigster on August 10, 2013, 11:11:50 am

Getting ready to put MK9 on my mame rig and I wanted the right monitor.  I have a 5ms LCD that I was planning on putting on it but I actually don't like it because it is too bulky.  I was reading these forums that state a 2ms is the best monitor for games.  Here are two I found on Newegg.  Could someone offer some advice as to whether or not they are any good?

If there is a better monitor in the ~200 price range, I am up for suggestions.  This is a slim machine, built for a 26-28" monitor.

The measurements you're referring to are the response times.  These do not reflect the input lag of the monitors.  They may still be very laggy even though they have low response times.  I'll refer you to this thread:

It should answer some of your questions.  If not, let me know.
