Both high input lag and slow response time speed can ruin your gaming experience. However, too high input lag can make it unbearable. So, first make sure the input lag performance of the display is acceptable, and then look for the fastest response time speed.
What exactly does monitor response time mean and what’s the best value to aim for? Is it an important factor? Let’s find out.
