Most computer monitors and CRT TVs seem to be immune to all but the 1 frame of lag that FS has said is built-in for lighting/rendering.  That 1 frame would be barely noticeable if at all anyway.  Getting a PC monitor specifically for TPA might be the best solution for some people like me if FS doesn't find a way to resolve this.


Also, if I plug into an old CRT TV using composite AV cables there's no lag.  So I know a lag-free set-up is possible on some TVs.  Even at 720p on my LCD TVs (with all the optimal settings) there's a tiny bit of lag that's not there on the CRT, but its barely noticeable*.  At 1080p its much more noticeable and greatly hinders gameplay, especially on the complex tables with a lot of ramps. 


I think that if you had that lag you would definitely notice it, so I doubt its that you're just used to it as some might suggest.  So the fact that you're using a PC monitor is probably your saving grace.


*Note: I've got an HDMI-VGA converter coming to try out an old CRT PC monitor @ 1280x720 to see how that works, mostly out of curiosity more than anything, and because that old CRT TV is nearly dead.
