Everyone says NEC but I have to disagree, I own the 215tw and I have seen the NEC in action. They are both great with the exception of the fact that the Samsung is more futureproof and the coating on the NEC is a little much (My opinion of course)

So there is no input lag on the samsung, still good for FPS?

Accoring to TrustedReviews they say the Samsung is the best hands down.

I am no expert on TFTs but I can tell you that I have yet to experience this. I dont know whether people are not setting up properly or just have shoddy equipment (Video Card etc) but I have NEVER seen it.

The 215tw is rock solid and I play racing games, FPS, MMORPGs et al and not one problem at all with it. I strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a good TFT.
