How long do IPS monitors last vs TN?
Good afternoon. I have a S. Korean/LG 27" IPS monitor (1440p). I read that TN panels generally last upwards of two years if left on all the time. My monitor is also on almost all the time, so I wondered how long an IPS monitor would last? Do they last longer, the same, or worse?- trog69
