Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Monitors, response time

I'm trying to figure whether my monitor is screwed/whether I'd get any benefit of switching to a different panel. So I need someone with a monitor similar to mine (22" TN Panel Chimei), to download Pixperan, run the streaky pictures test, and tell me the highest speed at which the text bubble on the car remains readable. I can't read the text at any speed over 3, it becomes totally blurred. I'm pretty sure that this monitor should do better than that.

Pixperan download location : http://www.prad.de/download/pixperan_english.zip

If you're not using a TN panel, do the test anyway and let me know the results.

    Well, on a Dell Ultrasharp 1908FP, I can still read at 5, but it's blurred enough past that to where it isn't readable. I'll give it a try later at home if I remember on my Viewsonic 17" and my Dell 24"

    I don't believe it - I'm on my THIRD PS3, and my FIRST XBOX360. What the heck?

    I've got a 22inch Samsung SyncMaster and I haven't done the test but its a sweet monitor for playing 3D shooters, you have to be really looking for it to notice any blur.
