    Gaming on a Dell 2001FP

    The Dell 2001FP is a 20" inch LCD that'll do 16*12.

    The reaction time is quoted as 16ms, will it be fast enough for gaming or are we talking ghosting city?

    As far as my knowledge goes (From about here --- To Here) 16ms should be aduqate enough, I think for gaming anything under about 30m/s is good enough.



    Although someone will now come along and pwn me with increadable ease.

    So no ghosting or blurring?

    Sounds good

    From my experience, 16ms has been the sweet spot for me. My first TFT was and LG1710B 16ms monitor, and I was delighted with it. I then bought an AG Neovo 19" monitor, that was meant to be a 12ms panel, but Scan delivered the wrong one and turns out it was 25ms. That was a complete waste of £200. Counterstrike just looked horrible with the amount of ghosting, to the point where I almost stopped playing.
    I'm now on a Dell 2005FPW, again with a 16ms response time, and I'm extremely satisfied with it.
    Having said all this, tolerance of response times are very subjective, I know friends on 25ms panels who can't see any ghosting, but probably have known no better either.
    Hope this helps
