Takes more than 16ms to get motion blur. That also counts for colours to for example red to blue response time.

I think that is more a question of personal preference & how much you notice it.
Most LCD monitors staited to be gaming monitors are 2ms. I've seen noticable motion blur on monitors with a 5ms response time.
But its not the case for all 5ms response time monitors some seem fine yet some seem to blur fast action

Its half and half. Usually though if a monitor advertises a 2ms response time that is gray to gray but there is also from say red to blue which could take longer eg 24ms then you notice the blurring.

ive had motion blur on both a samsung 8ms screen and a hanns-g 5ms screen when gaming,so to say its only on 16ms is wrong.

Please read my post. I'm talking about from one colour to another. Not GTG which is what your talking about. Even though it advertises 8ms that is GTG not from colour to colour time. Anyway it's all dependant on the person that's viewing the screen. I've never seen ghosting on any screen.

Anyway on topic I'd swap my 32" for one of those monitors

Nice Monitor., should nice from some gaming.

And my Hanns.G 5ms 19'' widescreen has been great in gaming, i don't use 1440x900 when gaming tho since my 8600 GTS will chug on most games at that res.
