Whatever category IPS falls in.

An IPS display is a type of LCD. 

 

Also, LED just refers to the backlight of an LCD. This post needs some work.

well if your using this for your game go for a IPS panel for sure. If you really want accuracy you could get GB-R led, but it probably wouldn't be necessary.

I agree it's not the best technology out there, it has issues. But I just love the image quality, contrast, deep black levels and high refresh rates, they are also pretty well priced now.

Samsung S-PVA panels are rather close to plasma's deep blacks and good refresh rates (16ms, its ok) with really good colors and no ghosting etc

Only reason I don't use plasma though is ...well...720p.

 

My favorite panel types are VA panels, which are LCD's I guess...

WD 2tb Storage Drive / BenQ GW2750HM - ASUS VE248H - Panasonic TX-P42ST60B/ Corsair AX750 / Logitech K360 / Razer Naga / Plantronics Gamecom 380 /

Asus Xonar DGX / Samsung 830 256gb / MEDIA : eMachine ER1401 running OpenELEC XBMC with Seagate STBV3000200 3TB Hard Drive - Panasonic TX-P42ST60B
