I'm sure this has been discussed before but, for top performance, which is preferrable? I assumed that the flat display was better because it was more expensive but a friend told me there were some issues with flickering in games like Quake. Is this true? I tried to compare their specs at Apple's website but one talks about refresh rate and the other about being able to show 3.7 million colors.
Can anybody provide some comments on the best display for gaming?
