    Its not. The 69xx cards are better.

    the first digit just defines the generation. second defines the level of performance and 3rd defines sub catagories.

    phantom, how do you find the input lag on your IPS. its the only bad thing ive read really people saying it is noticeable if you play FPS games?

    Considering i mostly play wow now its not that much of a deal to me but just wanted to know.

    Thought that graph at the top of your link was FPS benchmark, nevermind.

    Input lag isn't noticeable to me.

    cool ty for the info.

    Looking forward to getting it all now :P

    Also - jsut found out that the monitor supports 30-bit deep colour, which is 1.07 billion colours (64 times that of std 24 bit), unfortunatley most non workstation gfx cards dont support 30 bit colour..... BUT WAIT! THE NEW 6900 SERIES DO!!
