The difference between monitor and projector gaming can feel like night and day. The most obvious difference is screen size. Maxing out around 32 inches wide - monitors are fine for most gaming – but the relatively compact screen makes it difficult to lose one’s self in gameplay, or say, a movie. Small screen size can also be a detriment to split-screen multiplayer gaming. If these problems frustrate your gameplay, then a bigger screen could be the solution you're looking for.
Another key consideration is speed. Previous generation gaming projectors were slow - offering low refresh rates and higher latency (input lag). Today's gaming projectors offer a substantially faster and more immersive experience. Every model on this list has a max input lag of only 16 ms (approx 1 frame of gameplay). The TK700 can even be set for just 4ms of input lag - meaning fast response times are no longer exclusive to gaming monitors. Projectors are becoming incredibly fast and responsive.
