I need a good gaming monitor for Xbox One. I will not be using it for PC gaming, just Xbox. I play mainly first-person shooters, so input lag and response time are a big deal. I'm looking for 24" or smaller. I looked at a lot of 22" ones, as the one I have now is 19". I don't want to go too big, as space is limited, and I can sit pretty close.

So mainly, I'm wondering if IPS is worth the extra money? Or just go with TN? Asus has some nice ones I was considering. Hoping to pay less than $200, peferably 150-ish.

Ones I was considering: VS228H-P, VE228H (cannot find what the difference is), VS238H-P, VH238H (again, can't find a difference), and the VS239H-P, which is an IPS.

Any recommendations between those? And are there others I should consider?

here is a link tht has a list of monitor which are suitable for Xbox One....

difference between IPS and TN Panel

TN panel monitors:
+ Lower response times (2ms)
+ Lower cost (but 120Hz TN panel monitors are more expensive)
- Poor viewing angles which means as you move around while looking at the screen you will notice color shifting.

IPS panel monitors:
+ Better viewing angles
+ Generally better color accuracy but most people are not concerned with color accuracy. LCD monitors need to be calibrated for color accuracy though. This can be done with additional hardware you must buy. Or by simply "eyeballing" / manaul adjustment; not very accurate though.
- A little more...

- A little more expensive than TN panels to a lot more expensive. "IPS" is a general category and not all IPS panels are equal to each other. The same can be said of TN panel as well though.
- Higher response times. Typically the best response time is 5ms vs 2ms for TN panels.

Lower response times generally means less ghosting, but all LCD panels have at least some level of ghosting. It is simply a limitation of LCD panels in general.
