Hello,

Is there a difference in legibility/colour etc? Purchasing new screens and the options are for IPS gaming (high refresh) vs normal IPS. I have the same model of IPS screen already and the quality is really good - very clear, good colours viewable from all angles.

I need some more and they do them in a "gaming" version for around £40 more.

Worth it? I play the ocassional game so not sure if it's a benefit or not.

Many thanks in advance.

Purely from the specs it looks like the gaming version might be 25% brighter - most other things are the same.

The display is so good on the normal one I'm nervious of "upgrading" to the better gaming version and it actually looking worse.

I'll be buying online so can't just go into a store to check them out.

Many thanks.
