New Gaming Monitors?

tek0011 · Aug 20, 2013

Looking to purchase a new monitor. Prefer 23-24 inch. IPS of course. Wondering what all your recommendations are?
I mostly play FPS/RTS/MMO.

So far I am looking at:

Dell U2413
or
BenQ XL2420TE

but im open to all suggestions.

I have a 25% discount with Dell. Not sure about their monitors when it comes to gaming though.

Something affordable like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009483

lets say price isnt an issue (to a point lol) Lets keep it less than $400. I am at such a toss. I've read like 25+ articles now.
IPS is great for viewing angle and colors yadda yadda
TN is better for response time.

But the new Dell U2413 has a 6ms response time.

Also I should note, the ability to move the monitor up down back forth and tilt is important to me.

Maybe go for 1440P? http://www.microcenter.com/product/384780/EQ276W_27-Inch_IPS_LED_Monitor,_WQHD_2560x1440,_HDMI,_DVI-D,_DisplayPort,_USB

Asus 1440p monitor with 5ms reponse time for only $600 its worth it!

One of the good things about TN is 120Hz, IPS has much greater color and viewing angle. Why not get both? http://overlordcomputer.com/collections/27-displays/products/tempest-x270oc-glossy

maybe on newegg, tigerdirect has at store for $600 in raleigh, nc at least

patrick47018 · Aug 20, 2013

Yeah, with that one you are going for higher refresh rates(higher possbile FPS), and a lower response time, even though GTG times from different companies vary much like contrast ratios.

How is this: http://dealzon.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2f019c0662c132b202757471d&id=486560a010&e=8dadf2b4a7

patrick47018 :

I have had a few people link that one. My only issue with it is the stand. I mean is it only fwd/bkwd tilt?

Edit: And this one - 27" too large for gaming

patrick47018 · Aug 20, 2013

Yeah pretty sure the ASUS is only tilt

ChrisCarbomb · Aug 20, 2013

the Asus 1440p monitor i have slides up and down and tilts

patrick47018 · Aug 20, 2013

Dell 21.5" 1080P IPS monitor 199.99, but comes with 100 dollar gift card. So it's like its 99.99 http://www.tomshardware.com/news/desktop-pc-cheap-coupons-deals-logicbuy,23942.html

tek0011 · Aug 20, 2013

So many options/opinions!

So far I've narrowed it down:

Option 1

or

Option 2

Edit: Comparison on Newegg. Keep in mind I can get the Dell one for $290 new.

patrick47018 · Aug 20, 2013

For the price then get 144Hz monitor
