    Well th 920 it has response time of 20ms so it shout be ok in that department, but from what I have read of the Prophetview 720 being pretty awful, supposedly it really struggles to produce dark greys and browns, they end up as vast black areas.The max resolution is also only 1024x768. If the 720 is this bad I cant see the 920 being much better.But the best thing you can do is see the monitor running games, if theres no ghosting and and the colours are good then go ahead and buy it.
