Mine doesn't buzz at all.What do you guys think to the U2312HM? From what I have heard people seem to be having a buzzing problem with it.

120Hz TN may be better for pro gamers, but most regular gamers will be happy with an IPS panel.
And as PCM2 says some colour transitions are quicker on an IPS vs the quickest TN. The last screen I had was a TN (not 120Hz) and if you ever had black and grey together, there were visible trails, I never get that on any of my IPS screens.
Also colours matter to gamers as well, no one wants the top quarter of their screen to be 30% darker than the middle, and the bottom third to start washing out, and that's what you get with TN. Not to mention constantly having to adjust the tilt every time you move your head.
As a whole package, taking everything into account, the IPS I have now is many times better than my last TN screen. I've played a ton of games (including fast FPS games) on IPS screens over the last 5 years and never had a problem gaming on them. I hated gaming on the TN, to the point where I had to keep my CRT.
I can't imagine a lot of average Joe gamers come to this site, but I may be wrong
You put a 60hz ips panel next to a decent 120hz tn both playing an fps and tell me that the difference isn't immense.
The difference IS night and day. It's like putting a CRT next to regular 60hz monitor.
Ask any average Joe off the street which they prefer and they'd go for the 120hz monitor every time
Most people I know, in fact no scrap that, ALL the people I know would much rather have a v-synced steady 60fps with all the eye candy turned up to the max on a decent IPS panel, rather than play on some washed out 120Hz TN monitor...
It depends on the FPS title you're playing. I tested Bad Company 2 on a U2312HM and found the action on foot pretty decent. You get a small amount of trailing but nothing major for the most part. When stafing or quickly turning around the textures certainly don't maintain the same degree of sharpness you'd see on a 120Hz monitor. If you up the pace of the action (get yourself on an ATV for example) then things can start to get a bit ugly. I found the BF3 beta (which doesn't officially support any vehicles) to be very playable too but with the same caveats as BC2. What I couldn't hack on that monitor was Gymkhana on Dirt 3. But that's another thing entirely.
Trust me mate, IPS for gaming is a no go.
