however, i've got two panels here: a 19" viewsonic va902 with 8ms and a 22" widescreen lg l227wt with 2ms. the 8ms response time of the viewsonic are completely unacceptable for gaming. when moving the mouse in a fps everything is soo blurred and fuzzy. you can hardly see any details while moving around. for me that's definately a nogo for gaming... a friend of mine has a 24" with 5 ms and even these 5ms look a lot worse than my l227wt with 2ms, else i'd have already swapped my 22" for a 24" display.
i really do think overdrive is doing a damn good job on these 22" 2ms panels. there's definately a huge difference between 2ms panels with good overdrive and ones with more response time.
Whoever believes this 2ms crapshoot response value he has absolutely no clue about LCD monitors, that's for sure.
