    Response time is the amount of time it takes for a pixel on the monitor to change from one shade of grey to another and back again. What you described was input lag, which can be cumulative based on your pc equipment and/or monitor. Common mistake I see all of the time!! Be safe!

      Thank you for this. All this while I had been searching for a high response time monitor cos i thought the screen pixels would update faster

    • @asd7247286
      @asd7247286 Рік тому +4

      I’d say you would expect the picture to change after given your input so response time would be part of the more broader term input lag

      Is it basically the time one pixel needs to change color, or only if its grey?

    Really love this video - very simple to understand and helpful! As someone who uses Outlook and MS word and other applications in the MS suite extensively for reading contracts every day, the G27Q and it's BGR subpixel layout made reading text terrible. So unfortunate because it really excels in every other category for the price.

    • @ivaylotsankov7292
      @ivaylotsankov7292 2 роки тому +2

    Excelent video! I'm just a bit disappointed that a good video like this didn't mention that 99% of response times listed on retailer and manufacturer specifications do not represent reality at all, and should be outright ignored when purchasing. This is very important, and VESA is in fact issuing new testing standards like ClearMR to address that exact problem, but this standard is not widespread as of yet, which is why you should actually check 3rd party reviews and testers for realistic response times of your monitor

I suggest going for 4k gaming monitor or TV with adaptive sync even if your games output 60fps in 120hz or higher hertz monitor you will see benefits with g sync turned on
