LG 32UN550-W Performance in Fast-Paced Games?

I've had this monitor for about a month now and it's been great so far. The image quality is really nice.
Hey, I have the LG 32UN550-W and I can vouch for it being good for gaming. I found a useful article about it on TechReviewer though Is the LG 32" 32UN550-W Good for Gaming?. You guys should check it out!
That's great to hear! What do you think about the refresh rate? Does it feel smooth enough for fast-paced games?
I've been playing some fast-paced games lately and the 60 Hz refresh rate does seem a bit lacking. It's fine for most stuff, but when it comes to intense action scenes in games or movies, I can notice some stuttering.
Yeah, I agree with you @lexalbrecht. The 60 Hz refresh rate is definitely not ideal for competitive gaming, especially if you're into FPS games. But for general use and casual gaming, it's been okay for me.
That's true. It really depends on your gaming preferences and how much you focus on the visuals and responsiveness. I've found that other factors like resolution and color accuracy have made up for the lower refresh rate in my experience.
Oh, speaking of which, what about the response time? Is it fast enough to prevent ghosting during intense gameplay?
The response time is 4 ms, which I think is good. I haven't experienced any ghosting issues while playing games.
Same here, I haven't had any issues with ghosting on this monitor. The response time seems to be doing its job well enough for casual gaming.
Thanks for the input! I guess it really comes down to personal preference and how much importance you give to refresh rate in your gaming experience.
