-getting next month
-Intense gaming for long hours
-1 monitor
-any inches, comfortable, not too small, 23, 24inches? or more
-[strike]$400-$600[/strike] around $400
-1920x1080. if possible, 2560x1440, if it's worth the price.
-IPS, TN? idk, any recommendation will be helpful, whichever will benefit me the most from gaming. is it true TN is better for gaming?
-any advice on choosing 60hz or 120hz?
-Games priority: BF3, BF4, Crysis 3, WoW
-i wonder if the avg fps can go as high as 100 with bf3 max settings?

EDIT: i think $600 is too much, i forgot that i still have to get my gaming keyboard and mouse. make it around $400.
EDIT: i dont know about 3D, no interest in it.

Do not buy that it's a 3D 120Hz NVIDIA 3D Vision monitor you won't benefit from it.

That looks good.

bazinga73 · May 8, 2013

since im going for crossfire 7950s, is it better to go for 120Hz monitors?

If I had a gtx 670, i would be rocking that first monitor though

Of course

Well yes if you plan on playing non-super intense games. Like if you are playing games where you get super FPS then it is worth it. But if you are playing games like bioshock. and crysis 3 and stuff like that, not much point. however, if you CAN afford it.. Might as well get it just in case you pick up a few games in the future that are fun that can benefit from it.

if you play FPS-type games like BF3 or COD, then having a fast response time along with a low input lag might be a priority.

o.k.

i'll go for the BenQ XL2420T. but i do not live in the US, so i have to use vPOSTUSA which shipping cost quite a bit. it seem to be very popular and there are many good reviews. I guess when it comes to gaming, the monitor will be perfect. alright, thanks all.
