I need a monitor.. I know all about those tech specs, but one thing is bothering me which could be realized only in a practical way..

I'm a gamer who plays All NFS games, DIRT Showdown and much more racing games.. Shooting games like Splinter Cell. CODs, Battlefields, CS, Project IGIs, Crysis, etc etc..

Now my confusion is to buy a IPS monitor or TN monitor.. I'm a gamer who sits exactly st the center of the screen (like everyone does) and while watching movies - two persons (including me) will sit near by and watch movies.. The doubts are,

1) If it was TN Panel, whether I will notice color shift watching movies or playing games?

2) If IPS panel, will I notice difference between 2 ms and 7 ms response time? (Because I have to choose between two monitors - one is DELL with IPS and 7ms, the other BENQ with TN panel and 2ms)?? Thks in advance.

The viewing angles on newer TN-panels has gotten better, so it should be ok for watching movies, even if you're sitting off center.

Colour accuracy and picture quality in general is better on the IPS-panel, but response time is not good enough for the type of games you play IMO.

I'm an avid racing- and fps game player, and no IPS monitor was fast enough last I checked.

Go with a good TN-panel is my recommendation.

I never sit-off the centre of the screen, only when watching movies my friend sits near to me and that doesn't exceed 3 members watching together.. How about this product? Does it have new TN panel?
