Are there any good 19" TFT's that can be used for this purpose?
I've heard something about Viewsonic working with 12ms delay,
LG L1915S and CTX F973L with 12ms as well. I'm just wandering if
this 12 ms delay wasn't achieved by drop of quality at the same time.
Does anyone know something more about this monitors and would
like to give me some advise about which one to choose?

That seems like a bigger issue at some Euro sites they seem a lot more
obsessed with 6 bit screens that have lower reponse times vs 25 ms 8
bit panels.
You generally can tell cause the 8 bit panels say 16, 7 mil colors
while 6 bit says 16,2 mil. The problem is many companies will leave
this number out intentionally or unintentionally I dont know and then
sellers seem to assume all panels are 16,7 cause most probably were.
I think there are slight varations too I think Samsung came out with
slightly faster 23 ms 8 bit panel. Im not aware of any 8 bit 16 ms
panels etc but then they dont really talk about it alot here except in
bits and pieces here and there. Id like to know if there are.
Im sure not all 6 bit panels are created equally so there might be
some that do a much better job at dithering the colors who knows.
They always say LCDs are all about compromises so sure you probably do
get worse aspects like contrast ratios possibly and viewing angles
though the specs claimed seemed to be getting better and better on the
less than 25 ms panels though how meaningly they are I dont know. In
general though all panels look much better than they did a few years
ago --- at least that my impression. Ive seen some people actually
take snapshots on the net and show comparisons. Ive also seen
neighbors units and the ones they bought years ago tend to look more
washed out and weird. Almost all the newer ones even the generic ones
look pretty good now at least after a casual look. I dont know about
detailed analysis of the screens --- how accurate all the colors are
etc as they say LCDs tend to have problem areas still so they arent
perfect but most people seem to overlook these and seem pretty happy
with them.
The reviews Ive seen also tend to be very erratic online even at pro
sites,
I dont know if its the case that the response times arent as important
as some think and that its better to get a good 25 ms 8 bit panel with
the most accurate colors and that some 25 ms can be decent for games (
some have claimed this) or a better compromise is a very good sub 25
ms fast panel 6 bit .
