Phosphors are funny little things. In my Gateway VX720 (like Diamond Pro 710, not the other VX720), the blue and green phosphors light up the fastest and decay to near-zero the fastest (100-200 us), but have a long dim phosphor trail that persists for hundreds of milliseconds. Red starts up slower and decays slower (hundreds of us), but reaches zero brightness well before the next frame.

OLEDs without strobing, on the other hand, have a full frame of brightness persistence (and LCDs have slow color changes on top of that).
