I've asked already about some Asus TN monitor but now I'm thinking about IPS. Thing that bothers me is this 5ms response same as the one on 5ms TN monitor, I mean is the input lag same? I can tell difference between 60Hz and 75Hz so I'm pretty sure I'll notice ghosting. Monitor I used up till now was some LG with 75Hz@1024x768 in CS:GO.

You won't notice it. It's not true IPS though.

response time is a lie! 

What he means is that the gtg response time spec is irrelevant--the way it's measured has little regulation and there are many different factors free to manipulate the spec to meet whatever number they'd like to advertise.

Black to black or white to white numbers are what matter but very few companies report that spec.

How's it not true IPS...?

Hmm, Acer seems goods. I've narrowed it down to this Acer and Asus VN247H 1ms TN. But I read that they used something to make 1ms and it results in inverse ghosting. Any more thoughts? Really don't know what to choose.

I actually have the Acer monitor and love it. I noticed a Different From TN to IPS and you can easily tell when you have both side by side. Worth the money if you can find it for $130 when I bought for that price. No dead pixels or no backlight bleed.

 

Edit: I also do a lot of FPS games on it and you can't see ghosting or anything on it. It is still a pretty fast GTG response time on it compared to other IPS monitors and IPS looks much better for color than TN

Also a reminder the Acer does not have VESA mount. so If u wantto use a monitor arm that is something to think about.
