Thoughts on the ACER or LG 43" monitor? Or just wait?

[toy4x4]

Anyone have experience with the below monitors? I have a price range of around $400-$500. I have read that a monitor is preferred due to lag with the flippers and I am very sensitive to delays/lag and it will drive me nuts if there is anything significant.  Am I off base or should I just wait and go with an even more expensive Dell/Philips up to around $800?  I played a Pinball FX cabinet at a local gaming place and the graphics were garbage with lag and slow graphics.

Or what is the best 43″ monitor?  I’m trying to save for a monitor and also plan dimensions of a cabinet build over the next couple of months.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Running the ET430K  43″ by Acer (as are many others) and it’s a great 4K playfield… That being said, someone on one of the Facebook groups mentioned that Acer is planning on bringing out a 43″, 4K, 144Hz monitor sometime in the near future (where currently we are maxed out at 60fps this would allow for a lot higher frame rates). Potentially worth the wait – i would even consider an upgrade from my current screen since even getting about 90fps is noticeably a LOT smoother in games.
