LG Monitor response time setting?
I have a 22MK430H-B connected via HDMI, in the OSD there's a response time tab with off, normal, fast, and faster as the available settings and I have no clue what to set it to.

Something went wrong while displaying this content. Refresh

According to the LG spec sheet for your monitor the faster setting is 5ms response time so I would expect the slower settings to have a longer response time, whether it makes a difference or not is ?

Well, the display is 75hz, which is 13.3ms per frame update, so I don't expect there to be any ghosting on either of the fast settings.
So it doesn't really matter.

Does response time (Grey to Grey) affect frame rate/time? I thought they were a seperate thing.

Edit: done some quick reading and I see now what you mean with the ghosting comment Autumn.

No, but if pixel response times are too slow then you'll get ghosting. GtG is nonsense really, because pixel transitions can vary by quite a bit, depending on tech. You really want the worst case scenarios which won't show themselves until the display has been fully tested by pros.

A slight delay may go unnoticed, though. It depends on the individual, but ideally you want transitions to be faster than refresh intervals.
Thanks for the explanation and I had done some quick research on this myself and now understand the ghosting comment from Autumn.

the responce itme if often a limit of the lcd panel not the driving circuit

turning off all visual features can reduce input lag, but will not change the panels responce time
