Today's Fastest Retail LCD
An anonymous reader writes "ViewSonic has recently released a very exciting product, a nineteen inch LCD display with a 3ms response time. This is the fastest LCD panel currently available to consumers, and it is clearly aimed at gamers and movie watchers. Dubbed the VX924, the display is part of ViewSonic's X series which tries to comnbine performance with style. The word on the street is that Samsung will have a 4ms display available this year, but this may be the only 3ms."
"Today's Fastest Retail LCD"
I tried to buy one last night, but I couldn't catch it!
The global economy is a great thing until you feel it locally.
Actually, they've measured black to black as fast as 0ms in the lab, but convinced that marketing folks that nobody would believe that they could achive those numbers. Next year, they're going to release the same panels at 2ms, with 1ms in 2Q2007, then again with a 250ns spec in 2H2008. By quoting a higher-than-actual response they hope to reduce user complaints of spec-fixing, as well as provide a path to better the specs each year without any additional research expenditures.
Rumor has it they have also tested the panel at 0ms white to white, but they're not releasing any data on "lit" pixel response until the 3Q2006 panels are ready to go into the distribution chain.
Is it just my observation, or are there way too many stupid people in the world?
