Input Lag, Power Use and Color Gamut

Once again, there isn’t a good lag tester on the market that can do 2560x1440 natively. I’m sticking to using the Leo Bodnar lag tester at 1080p because it is a well-known, reliable test that is easy to duplicate. Most scalers also introduce very little delay now compared to color management and other display features.

Input lag is 22.53ms, which comes in ahead of most 27" displays except for the BenQ that is a native 1920x1080 display. I didn't notice much lag myself, if any, when using the Zero-G. Advanced picture controls like a color management system are more likely to introduce lag than testing at a non-native resolution, but this result still might improve if it were run at 2560x1440 and not 1080p.

Processing Lag Comparison (By FPS)

Power usage on the Monoprice appears a bit strange. As I discussed, the Brightness control does not control the backlight as it should. Because of that, power usage is basically constant from minimum to maximum brightness.

The gamut on the Monoprice is 74% of the AdobeRGB gamut, which is slightly more than the sRGB gamut size of 71%. Nothing out of the ordinary here.
