Tearing With Flat Panel Monitor

I received a flat panel monitor with my Dell. I remember hearing that there were problems playing D3 with flat panels. Is there a way to minimize the tearing with this type of monitor.

turn on vsynch.

If the response time on the lcd isn't fast (aka like 12ms or lower) you'll also get ghosting

be careful about Mfg's stated response time....

(poor)some rate from off - on - (rise)
(good)some rate it from on - off - on
(better)some rate it from full white to full black to full white
(best)finally full grey to off to full grey (real world)

But they all will say 12ms...go figure


12ms if they rated it from full on - off - on

25ms if they rated it from grey to grey

4ms if they rated it on - off

(they = dell)
