Can anyone recommend a good, quality monitor for gaming with preferably a 2ms response or lower and with a 120hz refresh rate?

That one is pretty nice but I was hoping for something more of a 2ms or lower response rate.

i wouldn't suggest that, at such response rates the quality of the panel is not very good

That looks like a great monitor and I love the 120hz/1ms rates but it is out of my price range and I don't think I can put any more than I already have into my rig. I was look at some step down monitors (still benQ) but so far no luck finding a good 120hz/1-2ms.

Sorry mate but that's the cheapest 120Hz/1/2ms monitor i could find. You can still find quite a few 2ms monitors under $250 (£165). Id say go for the Asus VE247H or the VN247H. But 120Hz monitors are rare. They start from £200 (around $300) upward. [/quotemsg

Well, what do you think of this one?

Sorry if this is a bit late but DONT GET ACER MONITORS! It is cheap Chinese garbage and easily breaks. Honestly if you REALLY WANT a low response time then go for the Asus VN247H. If not go for IPS or PLS. Asus has the MX239H which is the best looking IPS monitor i have ever seen. And it still has a good response time (5ms). PLS monitors are only made by Samsung but they are virtually the same as IPS. They are slightly better though because they have deeper blacks and the screen is brighter. If you are going with 2ms or lower go with the AsusVN247H, if you are going IPS, go with the Asus MX239H and if you are going PLS go with the Samsung S24C750PS. Honestly you wont notice the extra 3ms. Its also really hard to notice 40ms increase, if not at all.

Its not late at all. Cant order my build until mid September anyway. Thanks for the save because i was looking at the acer monitors! Im still looking over all of your suggestions because i need something within budget but with a 120+ refresh rate.

Are you American or from the Uk Like me (where everything is overpriced) or from another country? If you are American then go on Newegg then get the Asus VG248QE. Its 270 dollars (20 bucks over ur budget BUT it has a 1ms response time AND it is 144Hz). But first tell me. Why do you want 120Hz monitor. What is your GPU? If you are going to play games on Ultra then get an IPS or PLS monitor because they are 60Hz and can only display up to 60 FPS. 120Hz monitors display up to 120FPS. Unless you are playing games at 100+FPS then there is no point in getting 120 Hz. Look at the suggestions i sent you and look at the vg248qe on newegg (im guessing your american bcuz u sent me an american exclusive monitor).

You're correct, i'm american and i do plan on running games over 60. 60 is perfectly fine but on intense moments of the game frame rate can drop a significant amount so if im running at say 100fps it wont affect me at all. ill go ahead and post my whole build ---- http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1kh7D
