Which monitor with my PA249Q ?

Pool

Hey guys,

 

I am looking for a second monitor to go with my PA, however since it's a 16:10 monitor I can't seem to find the right monitor size to make it look even at least in height. Any ideas ? (the second monitor is for gaming, so I would like a low latency ones.)

PA248Q? It's basically a standard-gamut version of the PA249Q.

Oh sorry I should have mentioned that I am also looking for a low latency monitor.

PA248Q has very low latency.

 

I read 6ms, isn't it high for gaming ?

By low latency did you mean low input lag? That and response time which is the quoted 6ms are different things, however both the response time and the input lag on this monitor are more than low enough for fast paced gaming. 

 

In fact the input lag is expectationally low compared to similar displays.

 

You shouldn't take too much notice of the g2g response time specification, it is more of a marketing gimmick now a days.
