This is the lag caused by the digital televisions and monitors. Image processing (such as upscaling, 100&nbsp;Hz, motion smoothing, edge smoothing) takes time and therefore adds some degree of input lag. It is generally considered that input lag of a television below 30ms is not noticeable.<ref>http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/monitors/2009/02/06/the-dark-side-of-overdrive/4</ref> Discussions on gaming forums tend to agree with this value. Once the frame has been processed, the final step is the pixel response time for the pixel to display the correct colour for the new frame.

===Windows Aero===
If you're using Windows Vista/7, having [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Aero Aero] enabled will add a noticeable amount of input lag because it forces vertical synchronization at the OS-level.
