I'm getting my first gaming computer soon and I'm very caught up on the monitor. I was between the MX239h by ASUS and the hl236hlbid by Acer. The big difference I see is that the MX239h has a matte screen and the Acer is glossy and while the room my computer will be in is pretty bright, I hear some really bad things about matte and judging solely by pictures I don't think I'll like it. However the ASUS monitor looks GORGEOUS and I've only heard good reviews but it's more expensive.
I'll be using this mostly for gaming.
Any suggestions are welcome, I'm looking for a 1080p, IPS monitor thats good for gaming under $200. Built in speakers are a plus (I know they sound like garbage but they're convenient) and I really like the borderless monitors and it needs to be tillable at the least.

Thanks!

Well the Acer I have personally used and I must say it is the best looking 1080P monitor I have ever seen, and even in my room with the window open, as long as the monitors brightness is decently high you can hardly see the glare. The picture quality is great, especially without the distortion caused by anti-glare coatings, my vote goes for the very affordable and great looking HL236hlbid
