Hey guys.

I'm in the need of a new monitor and I've pretty much narrowed it down to these 2.
Any help would be appreciated. Have in mind that I'm only using the monitor for RTS gaming, such as Heroes of Newerth. And then browsing and such.

The two monitors I have in mind.
BenQ XL2420T: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA1G5...
EIZO Forris2333: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

I know that the BenQ is 120Hz & the EIZO is only 60Hz. But for RTS gaming and not any FPS at all. Do I really need the 120Hz? Please, help me out which to get, and which I would benefit the most from. Thanks in advance. :) 

My system,
CPU: Intel i7-4770K
Mobo: Asus Sabertooth Z87
GPU: Geforce GTX700 2GB

The BenQ is great for FPS gaming but the colours aren't great and the 120Hz will not benefit you in any way really for HoN.

I would go for the IPS panel for the nice colours and it should be fine for FPSs aswell as long as you aren't trying to be good.

Considering the new 27" Samsung PLS panels are being put into 3rd party Monitors and selling for $300 from Korea, as well as all of the 27" IPS panels now for sale on Newegg for less than $400, get this one:

It can overclock to 110-120hz If you ever need it and it runs a higher resolution than those other two, as well.

I'd prefer to stay in the 23-24 inch size. Anything for that? :)
