Well, there are some discounts going on right now, and I also just got my hands on a 3D vision 2 kit for $50.

My current montir is the ASUS VE248H:

I was looking at the ASUS V248QE:

Or the BENQ 20TE

My budget is $300, and I really want to get a monitor that supports 3D vision 2.
I've never experienced it, and I also really want a 120HZ monitor after experiencing some casual desktop use on my friend's 'overlord' monitor.

My current PC specs, well the main ones that matter:
GTX 680 4GB
i7 4770k @ 4.2ghz
16GB Crucial ballistix ram.

I'd really like some help in finding a nice monitor for a nice price that can support 3D. Time is ticking!

Thanks.

I have seen the wonders of a VG248QE, you can read the tests here on Tom's but I tell you, if your in the market for a fast competitive monitor it wins. If you are more on the higher resolution/color quality look far away from it since it's a mere TN panel.
I'm wanting that and going to wait the G-sync model.
I tell you, not everyone get to see the difference between 60 and 120/144Hz, but responsiveness is extremely good and needs a good pacing in game to really take the advantage. Your not likely to see it playing RPGs, racing or strategy games. You get the most from 3rd person fast pace action games and 1st person shooters. I heard that one of the most charming 3D games was The Walking Dead.
If you are more on the 3D gaming don't...

If you are more on the 3D gaming don't worry about anything else than viewangles and luminosity.

I've never experienced 3D personally, but I'm more so on board for the fast refresh rates. It makes games and even windows in general just look so fluid and nice.

The 3D is an added bonus, I liked red/blue 3D when it was around. I tried it again 3 months ago or so on my current monitor, and it made some games look pretty good with nVidia's anaglyph 3D. But I'm sure stereoscopic is better.

I just want to watch movies and view pictures in 3D, and have a fast monitor. I will be getting an oculus rift in the future, but this monitor is purely for the feel of 120HZ.

I guess I'll go with the VG248QE, but I'm not sure if I should wait for CYBER MONDAY and see if it gets to a lower price. I don't want to risk too much!

Thanks guys, will select solution within the hour unless someone else has anymore input on the subject.

Thanks again.
