AMD freesync coming soon, no extra costs.... shocker

The Sammy 120HZ panel (At least the 700D) was a very solid panel.

It's hilarious when I go upstairs and see two of my brothers TN panels though.

Modern TN panels don't have to be bad, we can can see that from the 4K reviews.

I just have a problem with people talking about something when they haven't experienced better, it's a false representation of a product.

From what I understand no TN panels compare to ips displays. All TN panels fall short on the colours. But ay what do I know am no expert, to me colours look fine, Reds look Red, Greens look Green, Blues look Blue.

Who is saying TN does?

VA has better blacks than IPS and is faster so could be better for gaming than IPS.

TN's do not need have bad colours but BenQ seem to by most reviews I have read on the gaming range.
 
I have experienced High end IPS, High end TN and 4K on a TN and the picture quality is good on all of them. I have had so many monitors and would certainly have no issue buying TN over IPS. I have a keen eye for colour depth and for games alone, TN is great.

Isn't TN also better for response time and input lag?

You can't say TN is great as a blanket statement though, it depends entirely on the panel. There's some solid TN panels, but there's also some terrible ones.
 
you can only see the quality of a panel if you see the difference with your own eye's.

If you have a panel thats not all that clear, is washed out and has a wired green hue (plenty of those exist) it may well look perfectly good to you if your used to it, doesn't mean its not horrible, you would have to put it next to a better one to see what it is that your actually looking at.

I think a TN panel can be as good as an IPS, if you get a Good TN and not a particular good IPS then you may even chose the TN for picture quality.

Personally, i have yet to see a TN panel that to my eye's doesn't in some way have something with the IQ thats just not right.

But thats just me.

I can when I use the term "I" :p

I feel "I" have enough experience with several different monitors to know what "I" like :p

Compared to the Dell U27 I had, the modern TN panels were far better for response times. Even the 4K Samsung I had was 1ms and my 120Hz is 5ms.

It's not on about you, you say "TN is great".

Isolating three words that are part of a sentence, let alone partof a paragraph, just to argue with those three words is very poor debating skills.

For a start the words you've chosen are preceded by "for gaming alone, TN is great", which is true, for gaming there are a lot of TN's that are great. You could argue about the extraneous use of a comma, but when you actually read Greg's post as a whole is pretty clear what he means and no he isn't blanket saying that all TN's are great or that TN's are great for all purposes.

I didn't actually read that for gaming part, I just saw the colour part, and that's not how the sentence starts, so....

Actually quite funny, I missed the end, you missed the start.
