Blur Busters Forums

Hey all, just discovered this site and it seems to be the place to ask about ghosting that's been killing me. I've had a 4k Samsung NU7100 TV that I'm using as a monitor for 6 months now, and before that I was using a random local 1080p TV for a year since I'm mostly gaming on it and love the extra space. I'm very satisfied with the Samsung one as it has great colors and contrast and very low input lag, but the ghosting is VERY noticeable in certain games and when scrolling through text etc.

I still don't know much about this but I guess it's due to the response time, which for this TV is around 9ms for g2g and 24ms for full range according to rtings.com, and when I enable limited color space the ghosting pretty much goes away completely, but everything looks terrible. The worst thing is that I barely had any ghosting on my last, no-name 1080p TV, and didn't even know to look out for it before I started seeing it on this one.

So can anything be done on this TV except going with garbage limited colors, and what should I look out for if I decide on getting a new monitor? Is it only related to response time or is it tied to refresh rate as well? I'm not that worried about response time as I don't even feel any on this TV and most monitors should be better in that regards. Thanks
