Thinking of upgrading from my 23" TN to a 23" IPS, not using it for anything that needs pro-grade colour accuracy, just gaming really.
Current favourite is the Dell U2313HM, but also been looking at the newer AOC I2367FH.
Just wondering if anyone has either of these and if they're really worth getting over a TN, heard people complaining about ghosting, but reports are somewhat mixed.

Thought about the U2412M as well, but not particularly taken with 16:10.

TN is gaming champion :).

Those who do not complain about IPS gaming had either very very crapy old TN or they don't won't to admit they are wrong so they wouldn't look stupid beacuse they forced spending 200-250$ :)

But.. there is always but. IPS models these days are far more advanced in other options that will come with them than TN models. You'll find more 3D displays and stuff...

But generally speaking, TN over IPS if it is only gaming monitor.

Best regards :)

Not really interested in 3d at this point, and although the 120hz would be nice, my 670 isnt going to give a high enough fps to utilize the higher refresh rate.

Could just go for an LED TN panel instead, using an LG W2361V at the moment, not sure if it's actually worth changing to another TN.
