Well, I have owned my XL2411T for about a year and a half and quite frankly the 120Hz isn't detected anymore and the colour accuracy is appalling (I have been working with IPS in college), so I want to change out.

However, I'm an avid gamer and I want something with decent response time, no ghosting and decent colour accuracy as I do a lot of photo editing for fun and college work, also, I'm colour blind with Red and Green and bad colour accuracy hurts my eyes especially when it's Green and Red.

My budget is around £250-£300 ($400-$500) I would like a 24"-27" monitor and I don't want 4k, 1080p or 1440p will do me fine, so does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
-Sam

I'd get the QNIX QX2710... one of the 'korean' brand 1440p monitors that uses the samsung PLS panel.
I paid $309 from flebay for mine in June of 2013, came with no dead pixels and no bleed... have had zero issues, and overclock.net has the tools for one click overclocking.

mine overclocked to 117hz... some reported theirs got as high as 144hz. mine has screen lines at 118hz or higher.
with my 770 4gb SLI setup, it allows me to actually let the cards run at 100% and use the power!
for example, Arkham origins at 1440p with everything maxed out, my gpu's run at 99%, and I pull about 90fps and use 3.1gb of VRAM

I love my qnix! ;0

apart from great color accuracy your current monitor is one of the best for gaming orientation.as you have an issue regarding your sight i think that you will have to use custom setting on any monitor you work with to match your special needs.all benq monitors have terrible out of the box calibration and i think that using some other calibration settings that you can find on internet, may improve your current monitors image quality and color reproduction, a great deal! if i had to recommend any gaming monitor for that money i would have to suggest you a newer benq monitor (again)!:)
