my desicion situation

[shadowr1ku]

Hello forum!

Okay so here is my situation:

I currently have an Acer P237HL that I got from black Friday last year. Ever since I upgraded my graphics card from a gtx 660 to a gtx 780, it's time to upgrade the monitor. I surfed the forum for suggestions and all I see is IPS panels and their color reproduction. So to finally get to the point, my question is: is it still worth getting an IPS panel when I am red-green color blind? I haven't seen anything on the sub forum about it. I play league of legends and lots of FPS games. Let me know if that makes sense. Thank you!

This is a pretty interesting question, I have no clue what the answer is, but I'm definitely curious to see

 

Though I would assume you could still benefit from an IPS display, since overall it should still look better, even though you can't distinguish red and green (am I correct in saying that, I don't know? ).

I'd say no, go with higher refresh TN panel instead.

it would be a matter of $20 to make the colors you can see look better, yes it is still worth it. may i reccomend the acer h23hbl?

I was thinking about that too to be honest.

Well I can see red/green if it's obvious and neon, but in vast majority of games that doesn't happen, so it just looks brown to me

I was actually looking into that too, because eventually I want to do a multi monitor set up and it has an attractive price point. But I want to make sure it's a good choice or just go with a higher refresh rate (and obviously low response time and input lag)

I'll say get and IPS even if you are colour blind because of the viewing angles and most of the time, IPS monitors will be higher quality than TN
