Unfortunately those 5/6 ms response times are gray to gray, not black to white, you usually triple those values for black to white. As for input lag, you shouldn't notice it unless you're playing fast fps's like quake or it's something stupid like 30+ms (which is possible if you lookhere).Yeah, I have my HDTV connected to my PC via HDMI as a second monitor too. I rarely play PC FPS games (usually just stuff like Halo or Third Person Shooters on consoles, also Far Cry 3 recently), but did play both Borderlands and Borderlands 2 on it on PC and I never noticed any of that either. Input lag is pretty non-existent anymore and I don't notice the Response time black-white-black stuff at all.
I've never used a LED set though.
According to the documentation, the TV has a 5ms Response time and the Monitor a 6ms Response time, for reference.
I agree that there's no reason to go up to 4k on tv's unless they're in the 70-100" range but for computer monitors, I have a 27" 2560x1440 IPS (108 PPI) and I'm already dreaming about a 30" 3840x2160 monitor (146 PPI). For comparison the retina macbook has 15.4" 2880x1440 (220 PPI) and a 70" 3840x2160 TV would have 63 PPI. You can play with different valueshere.
Hate to harp on this, but stop calling them LEDs. They're LCD displays with LED backlight instead of CCFL and there's only minor differences between them (unless you have very high end shit with RGB leds or dynamic local dimming). It's all a marketing ploy to make people think you're buying a new display tech when you're actually just getting another type of backlight. Moar infohere.
