I want to use it for gaming. Does the converter effect response time, or case any lag more than 1ms?

I tried to using this device with an older Sony Playstation 2. The device converted PS2 video output to device - then to HDMI (with no flickering) but without audio. So device was useless to me... unless my kids want to play game without sound.

I am not sure how it would work for gaming, I am using it to support my conference room. I only use it for Power Point and word type documents.

Yes and No. Initially you likely would not see any lag time. After the usb blue tooth sender/receiver unit ages, it typically will require use of the included extender cable to move the unit from pc to desktop. This is a known problem with all brands and price ranges of wireless keyboards and mouses. If you are using with a laptop or use with extender cable to place send/receive unit on desktop from beginning you would likely never experience any lag time with this or any other branded combo. So I'd go with the combo that is the best value for you otherwise, knowing this problem exist with them all. Yes and No. Initially you likely would not see any lag time.

Just wanted to ease some concern regarding the monitor itself. (I bought this monitor so amazon showed me your question) It's input lag is rated at 09ms on Displaylag.com which is an excellent rating. The main reason why i bought this monitor. From my understanding the use of DVI or HDMI should have no real bearing on lag input. I would possibly look into the graphics settings of the game itself or make sure the drivers were installed ok.

I've played League of Legends on it, doesn't lag. I haven't downloaded steam on it yet...But im pretty sure it can handle it..might lag a little I fyou want a gaming laptop, get a lenovo, msi or asus.

Depends on the type of gaming. The 5-6ms response time isnt great for FPS or games with a lot of things moving on the screen very quickly, you will notice ghosting. I run 2 of them in a triple screen setup though, with the 2 GW2450's on the outside. I bought a much faster 2ms BenQ for the center monitor and I dont notice any ghosting anywhere. Partly because I dont focus on the side screens because they serve as peripheral viewing but Id say in general, yes. For best results? No.

The framerate is fine, no detectable effect from using this adapter. I'm using it to connect one TV to one laptop so I can't answer the other part of your question.

I have been using the converter to play my wii (I bought my wii when it first came out, so I assume it is the original) on my computer monitor for a few months now, and it works great. I had no trouble getting it to work, and the image is as good as you can expect from a wii.

Just install a SSD drive, then there will be no lag time, as SSD drives do not have to spin up!

Hmmm, Amazonfan, not sure what to tell you regarding your converter - I'm sure it'll work fine, and this fan sure doesn't seem to be a power hog to me, so I seriously doubt it's gonna blow anything out -but you'll have to attach it to both your mobo and your psu. I doubt it'll function otherwise. I set mine at full speed, and it does a great job of cooling at that setting, and is whisper quiet.Not entirely sure I answered your question completely here, but that's the best advice I can give you, going by my own install experiences...

Some people say there is input lag and ghosting but I do not see any. Works great for me. You need a LOT of GPU for it though. I use SLI 470's and they are starting to show their age already at 2560x1600.

I use this for my component only hdpvr. The response time is fine on 360 :)

Yes it does work. If it is extremely laggy(which it shouldn't be) then you have to enable compatibility but you should be good.

I haven't noticed any lag and my games worked perfectly. I'm using one of the HDMI slots. I haven't switched to Game Mode (to my knowledge) as suggested in the other response, but will try that to see if that makes a difference. Very happy with this Samsung.

i'm using mine to connect from analog output Amplifier to my TV only in which mostly playing a DVD and karaoke machine. I didn't really notice lagging.

No, it probably won't help much. I found the lag to be equal to, if not worse than just my TV doing the upscaling.

There is no lag going from composite(edit:component) to HDMI on the passthrough(although there might be a loss of quality. I haven't tested without it, it's been plugged in since I got it.) The capture has about 2 seconds delay.
