IPS vs TN 144hz

[BeardHat]

Hey there people who know more than me about Monitors...

I am looking into buying a monitor and I am kind of stuck...

 

I have been gaming on a 5 year old 1680*1050 Samsung monitor that is getting a bit old So I want to buy a monitor to replace the old one as my primary monitor 

However I am stuck on whether to buy a IPS monitor with 6ms response time or a TN gaming 144hz monitor

 

The monitors I have narrowed it down to are

 An Asus IPS 6ms 60hz

 

 A BenQ TN 1ms 144hz

I am not going to be doing any competitive fps. I play league of Legends and skyrim (That is moded to a similar degree to Logan's skrim)  and older games like Amnesia and Half life.

 

I know that the IPS panel will look leaps and bounds better in colour accuracy and colour depth but I am realy afraid that am going to notice that 6ms response time...

but then again it is 144hz ..... playing Bio-shock infinite in 120hz is probably awesome

anyone that can help me out ???

It has 8ms of response time which is more than the samsung and it has the same hz ... how is that faster ?

First of all Asus is 60Hz idk where you got the 85 from. Secondly the 8ms is actual lag not some asus calculated one AND it has immeasurably low input lag.

Ips all the way, I went from a 120hz benq gaming monitor to a 1440p ips monitor and it's so much better. Games dont look washed out or dull now.

 

Basically it's looks against feel, ips looks better and 120hz+ feels better. I prefered the looks and viewing angles etc Better colours just pop and bring you into the game imo.

I bought the Asus PB238Q and I could not be happier.

 

1080 P has never looked better. I have never had a IPS monitor (I have also never owned a 1080p monitor) so when I fired it up and played Garden of words I wanted to cry.. the colours are so crisp and the viewing angles are amazing! I also tired some insurgency and I did not notice any input lag or crappy response times. I like it a lot.

 

Now I just have to save up a bit so I can finally buy a Desktop PC. Because my laptop gives me 25 fps whilst playing skyrim at medium settings ;-;

 

P.S. thank you everyone for the feedback btw ... always appreciated
