Hi,
I'm looking to buy a new monitor for use with my gaming PC and PS3. I'll be using HDMI. At the moment, I'm using an LCD Sharp Aquos TV from 3 years back. I think it's 20" or so.
My budget is £200 - £275, and I want an LED LCD monitor. I'll note my GPU is an Asus GeForce GTX 770.
I've narrowed my choice down to 2 monitors but I have a few questions.
1. Asus VG248QE £269.99
2. Asus VE278Q £229.95
My main concerns are:

1. Asus VG248QE £269.99
24"
TN
1ms Response Time
144hz
It's 3D in case I ever want that option
Has 2 HDMI ports
Available: Jan 2013
2. Asus VE278Q £229.95
27"
IPS ( I think)
2ms response time
Not 3D
1 HDMI Port
Available: Nov 2010
My main concerns are:
24" vs 27" - is 27" too big for gaming? Will the picture quality not be as good?
The VE278Q was around in 2010 - is it too dated quality wise?
I've heard that TN LED's aren't as good as IPS - how true is that?
I'm leaning towards the VG248QE, any comments would be appreciated. I'm a noob when it comes to displays. Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
My Specs are:
i5 3570k
GTX 770
P8Z77-v
8GB Corsair RAM
750w Gold Corsair PSU
And I already have speakers, so sound isn't really a concern.
