Does it feel nice and responsive when gaming? No significant input lag or ghosting?

How does this compare to the S27B970D anyone know?
970D is superior panel wise, but maybe not as qood quality housing wise.

Ok thanks Gibbo.
Both mnine arrived nice and early from DPD for once, no 2PM delivery waits yay!
Flanking my ASUS SWIFT, both pixel-perfect from what I can tell colours are good, need to try and get everything matching now. My DP cable is too short to reach the left monitor but its longer than all my DVI cables >_<
I have a weird issue with the right monitor via DVI where the picture sometimes isnt displaying properly but a off/on seems to correct it. But at this point ill just grab a longer DP cable for the left and throw the current one onto the right one!
Also, the SWIFT just makes them look fat

Need gaming reports please
Will report back tonight once I've run a few games.
Here's some images of both my SA850T and ROG SWIFT with duplicated display and stopwatch running. Both are 2560x1440 @ 60hz and both are connected via display port to GTX980 in SLI.
Considering the SWIFT has 4ms of input lag (tftcentral) the Samsung is about 20ms more on average. Best was 0ms worst is 33ms
Images are here, Samsung on the left, Asus on the right. http://imgur.com/a/73lSe
Images at 1/3200 and 1/4000

Is that common to see? Manufacturer states one value when in practice it can be nowhere near on either side?
Be interesting to see what I'm used to on the Iiyama (rated 1ms) and what it is in reality.
Thank you.
Any idea how this translates into actual usage please?
The CNET review stated "Measured against a Samsung SyncMaster 975p CRT, and using a Canon 40D set to a shutter speed of 1/320, an average of over 60 photographs were taken using StoppUhr. With a lag time of less than 34ms in the fastest response time mode, the Samsung isn't fast, serving up images 2.04 frames behind the CRT. In practice, we didn't pick up any issues, but competitive gamers sensitive to input lag may wish to look elsewhere."
That's the complete input lag, the quoted 1ms is the response time of the panel only, not taking into consideration actual processing of the signal through the scaler etc.
Looking at TFT central this seems liek your monitor? 12ms input lag. So it's pretty quick.
TFT Central class input lag like so
So it falls into high class 2, for most people it should be fine. If you intend on serious FPS gaming or competitive gaming maybe not the best option.
