Do response times get better as the monitor gets warmer?

Just bought a 27" IIyama X2775HDS, and the ghosting was immediately noticeable to me, I thought it would be at least as good as my old DGM 24", btw what a fantastic monitor that was at the time.

Blacks are really good on this monitor, just found out about the overdrive feature which I've enabled, not sure if it will help the response times.

I think I can cope with it though as I won't be using this as a gaming monitor, not sure what to do, are the viewing angles on new TN panels such as the Asus VE278Q really that bad?

Depends on the TN panel, some are still horrendous others bareable unless your too picky, none are amazing but its a sacrifice you have to make if you want to play fast paced games.

If I were you I'd send it back on the dsr, myself and a few others have done the same. I was the proud owner of the dgm so I thought the 27"va would be the same but oh was I wrong.

I had it out the box for less than an hr before i sent the email to ocuk to get it returned, it may look nice but its really bad with ghosting despite its od on and its alleged 6ms response.

Yep, returned it for a Asus VE278, angles are not too bad and I can live with the slight colour inaccuracy.
