which are thebest response timing to look into buying monitors.. 3ms.5ms or 7ms gtg..i really confused..thanks in advance! Main usage is for gaming with new gen Games and Media..
 
Solution
the one you have now is 5ms response so if you dont notice any input lag...like sluggish feeling control....from your monitor then you probably wouldnt notice it in that ips as the are only 2ms off but if you want to be safe the one with 3ms is good to and if you want to go with that you will not be disappointed as you have already been using similar panel, but you wont see any improvement in picture quality either just the size.. is there a store where you can try to move a mouse ond type on a computer on a ips panel to see if you notice a difference?

asus have some 1 ms response 1080p that arent to expensive and the response time refers to input lag(makes mouse and key strokes feel slow) and is really noticeable in fps and racing games, however i have been told that some people dont even notice the difference under 5 ms...ips panels are beautiful but more expensive than tn panels

1080 tn 1ms

1080 ips 5ms

1080 tn 5ms

asus and benq are the 2 best manufacturers of monitors imo. and 24" is the sweetspot for a 1080 monitor

if it is for gaming the ips panels have unrivaled picture and only slightly higher input lag which the listed rating is not entirely accurate. i would say if this is your first gaming monitor upgrade to a new panel for gaming as you have been probably playing on a lower resolution tn/crt monitor. the graphical display on a ips monitor and simpy beautiful. so i would def suggest going with this one

as far as the things you listed are just different connectivity ports i believe. i am not to familiar with them but they are for connecting smartphones/tablets to your monitor to stream video and charge your phone...you can do the same thing with your pc so i dont see the advantages to even having these.
