I have a hanns-g 28" monitor and I was wonding if any of you guys that game on larger screens have noticed any reduction in reaction time or aiming accuracy?
I noticed after I moved up to it from my old 22" that my kdr in cod4 went down considerably. I attributed it to replacing my entire setup at once. I bought an entire new setup with it. I thought I just needed to get used to the new screen size.
I have had the monitor for about a year now still havent gotten back to where I was with my smaller screen. I have to actively aim where I would twitch before.
One thing I noticed last night on bc2. I was in cqc with a medic and as I panned my mouse around the guy to strafe him... I noticed that I couldnt even see him. He smeared into the foliage. Luckily for me he just stood there, so i just pinned the mouse at that point and killed him, but that really stood out.
One theory that I have is that since the screen takes the entire field of view it takes more time for the brain to process all of the information on the screen. Basically sensory overload on a game like bc2 with everyone hiding in the bushes.
Im gonna pull out an old 16" dell aperature grill monitor and turn it up to 140hz and see if there is any difference.
