1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,759
so we were in the middle of trying to film something where we showed off the

2
00:00:04,279 --> 00:00:10,960
uh benchmarks that we ran for Far Cry 3 where we had a gForce versus Radon

3
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:15,879
Showdown hold on no you're going the wrong way when we were using this

4
00:00:13,679 --> 00:00:21,279
monitor to showcase the graphs and I was like slick uh you got to you got to use

5
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:26,599
like a a more um a more obvious like a darker blue on the graphs because you

6
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:29,400
can't really see it on the monitor so here this is the angle that I was

7
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:36,520
looking at it from I was like yeah these aren't going to show how are we going to show people what the graphs look like

8
00:00:32,599 --> 00:00:39,760
and then I got down to I level with it

9
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:42,160
and I was like oh okay that is a

10
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:49,520
perfectly acceptable blue so the issue appears to be the TN panel having such

11
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:52,120
horrendous uh viewing angles that it was

12
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:59,000
pretty much unusable so just for lws we took an IPS panel this is a pro art

13
00:00:55,399 --> 00:01:00,600
monitor so for contrast this is a 120 HZ

14
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,720
TN which is about the worst case scenario for a TN in terms of color

15
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:08,439
accuracy and viewing angles because of the way that they have to overclock the

16
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:14,840
panels in order to get them to respond so quickly and then this is a color

17
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:17,280
calibrated 60 HZ IPS which is pretty

18
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:21,360
much the other end of the spectrum so would love to get some different angles

19
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:26,119
on here so slick come on over here and get them from sort of the side so you

20
00:01:23,119 --> 00:01:29,280
can see that what is supposed to be down

21
00:01:26,119 --> 00:01:32,759
down down what is supposed to be blue

22
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:37,000
actually appears to be brown and

23
00:01:32,759 --> 00:01:41,680
um and uh yeah I mean the difference is

24
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:44,640
so is so Stark even going from sort of

25
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:48,280
like a viewing spot of about here to about here that that there's a

26
00:01:46,479 --> 00:01:53,880
noticeable noticeable difference if you're not looking exactly straight on

27
00:01:51,200 --> 00:02:00,640
with the uh with the TN panel so you know guys if you don't believe what I

28
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:02,719
say about how TN panels are for color

29
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:09,959
reproduction as well as viewing angle just so inferior to their to their PLS

30
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,800
uh IPS and VA counterparts hopefully

31
00:02:09,959 --> 00:02:17,040
this is a bit of an illustration for you of what would be a worst case scenario

32
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:19,360
so what is a TN panel like this good for

33
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:26,080
couple things number one is 3D you cannot run 3D unless you can get 120 HZ

34
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:31,400
uh refresh rates and unless you have a fast enough response time to prevent any

35
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:36,400
motion blur or not motion blur well motion blur as well cuz that can wreak

36
00:02:33,319 --> 00:02:38,200
havoc on 3D gaming um as well as cross

37
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,879
talk between the left and right stereo images so you have to have a super fast

38
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:47,959
panel the other thing that a fast panel is good for is 2D well okay 3D gaming

39
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:50,120
but not stereo 3D gaming where you need

40
00:02:47,959 --> 00:02:53,920
that you need that responsiveness from the monitor you want to have that extra

41
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:58,519
Edge compared to someone else who's using a 60 HZ monitor because it will

42
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:02,879
actually show you the image faster so if you're playing twitch games where you

43
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:06,760
need every last millisecond then this would be useful and if you're running in

44
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:13,120
Stereo 3D then this would be useful otherwise do yourself a big huge favor

45
00:03:09,239 --> 00:03:15,200
and get an IPS vaa or PLS panel because

46
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:20,599
I think you guys have seen what the contrast between these Technologies

47
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:24,319
looks like again a very extreme sort of version of it thanks for watching lus
