Hi Everyone
Most excellent thread! Lots of very useful info.

I have a question regarding Eizo monitors, more specifically those two

TN panel
Eizo Flexscan S2401w http://www.eizo.com/products/lcd/s2401w/spec.asp
Response Time (r + f): 5 ms
Response Time (g-2-g): -

S-PVA panel
Eizo Flexscan S2431w http://www.eizo.com/products/lcd/s2431w/spec.asp
Response Time (r + f): 16 ms
Response Time (g-2-g): 6 ms

From the reviews I read Eizo is one of the best monitors but what worries me is the response time, I mostly use my computer for gaming (FPS / RPG games) and not graphics editing for which Eizo monitors obviously aim.

I hear that the image quality is amazing with Eizo monitors, but does anyone has one of those monitors and checked it out in gaming?

Also about the price i know these two arent cheap but this is true when compared in US, in my country (Israel) there is interesting issue with Eizo monitors. For example Samsung 2493HM costs around 800$ here (converted from local currency - NIS). while you can find it at newegg for 409.99$. The same goes for almost any other LCD brand - twice the price of what you can find in newegg. But this is not the case with Eizo monitors their price is even cheaper then what you can find in newegg.
No idea why from where this difference in price comes from. So ignore the price and just give the info on performance.

I have heard only good things about Eizo and in this case I will obviously get more value for my money. Just cant decide between those two.

So any opinions / advice?
