Huh? I thought they were related though. Like a 2ms response time is going to change what is on the screen faster than a 5ms, which translates to less input lag.

I don't think the speed at which the pixels switch is ever really slow enough to translate into a perceivable input lag time. You get input lag in TVs because a lot of the newer ones have lots processing going on in order to make the signal look better. That's why many have a game mode that turns most of that off. A PC monitor won't do that beyond what it needs to display the picture basically taking the raw signal from the GPU and making it into something you can see. The main thing you'll notice from a higher response time is the ghosting or blurring.
I may be off in some of that, but I recently did a lot of research on input lag while looking for a new TV so I think I got most of it correct, if overly simplified.
I've been wanting to go PLP. But a friend of mine who recently switched said the color difference between the 30" and the P 20's is a big difference. So I may just go with 2 27"s or something.

Oh ok you're right about ghosting, I forgot about that, but I think the lag would be noticeable. People desire 1000Hz gaming mice which translates to 1ms input lag maximum, while the standard mouse is like 150Hz.
I'm not OCD nor a a professional gamer so it doesn't really matter to me. I just hope it arrives safely with no problems. They just shipped it and its estimated time for delivery is next Tuesday...all the way from South Korea

I've heard more good things than horror stories, you should be fine. They honestly look pretty nice imo.

I had decided that I would just wait for Haswell before I upgrade again but then Microcenter decided to sell things ridiculously cheap. I can get a 3570k, ASRock Extreme6, and 16GB of Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3-1600 RAM all for $325.44 after tax. I feel like if I wait for Haswell, I'm just going to end up spending way more for a not so great performance increase over these parts. I primarily use my computer for internet/gaming but also work in programs like Photoshop, VMware, SSMS, NetBeans, etc.
By upgrading now I would see better speeds out of my SSD (I don't have SATA III), more frames out of my 580 (which I plan on sticking with for awhile), and my USB 3.0 external hard drive would perform better.
Do you guys think I should jump on this or still wait?
this works wonders but its hard to explain on how to do it so watch this youtube video
NOTE: this is not me. its some random kid but he did a good tut so im posting it
Finally got around to doing this. It worked.
However from their website the Bootable USB files didnt work, I just did the CD Files and made it from the ISO. And since it's a newer build than in the video, the run down was a bit different. But just reading what it asked me worked out fine.
Thanks for the help with this guys

Yeah I did a little bit of research before I decided to pull the trigger. The buyer that I purchased mine from was one of the highest rated sellers that people talked about on other forums and youtube videos.

People desire lots of stupid things without actually knowing what they are talking about. That is why there is a market for "GAMING!" products with bigger numbers, people who buy processors based on clock speed and core count alone, a huge number of audio products, and ultra cyro pure gold HDMI cables.
If your are talking about a half a second, or a third a second, even a tenth of a second, maybe. But 2ms vs 5ms? No way. Even then, the companies that report that number STRETCHHHH the truth as far as they can using different measuring devices, different standards, best case scenarios, etc.

I got 101st on the leader board though, how bout them numbers!
I had to

If you think the difference between a standard mouse and 1000Hz mouse is not noticeable you are crazy. A tenth of a second is huge. Ever played a game on host or 10ms ping compared to 100ms ping? Yeah that's a tenth of a second and it's a big ****ing difference.
