Exactly and if it comes to MAME emulation, GroovyMAME and a CRT is the best you can have regarding input-lag. Thankfully Calamity joined the team, so i have hopes, that one day, official MAME will be the only thing anyone needs.

The marketing industry fooled us very well with LCD/LED monitors. It just took nearly two decades, until we have such things like G-Sync/Free-Sync... doh  .
Also consider sound generation, DirectX is so bad and even X-audio is only slightly better, comparing to ASIO, both are miles away (2 frames at least).
I hope the Port audio stuff will make some progress, as this is the only alternative that would come close or be equal to ASIO. This would vastly decrease lag, created by emulation.
