Input lag. Signal delay. Pixel response time. Refresh rate. Sample and hold. PWM. LightBoost. G-Sync.

Perhaps you've heard the terms. You might even have a decent idea what they mean. However, can you define them precisely?

Better yet, do you understand how they contribute - and INTER-RELATE - to affect the responsiveness of your monitor?

I couldn't. At least, not as well as I would have liked. Until, at least, I read this long-awaited article by the awesome Adam Simmons (A.K.A. PCM2 of our very own OCUK boards).
With contributions from Mark of BlurBusters fame.
Enjoy!

P.S., for those too lazy-ass useless to read the whole thing, my personal main take-away is - bring on OLED with G-Sync and low persistence support for high framerate scenarios!
 
Thanks again for posting this here blackoctagon :).

I'll be sure to send people over to this thread if they get too hung up on response times at 60Hz. ;)
