Hello! 
I've been curently looking to buy a new monitors for a few days now. I'm currently using an old Acer monitor from 2006 ( AL1916W ) that I'll wish to use as my second monitor.
Now here is the problem, I'm a huge gamer but also learning 3D modeling.
From what I understand a TN panel is cheaper, better suited for gaming (high refresh rate, high response time but bad color accuracy and bad viewing angles )
An IPS panel is more expensive, better suited for any graphic work ( lower refresh rate, lower response time but much better color accuracy and better viewing angles.
My main use would be for gaming (not much competitive), watching movies, 3D modeling and photoshop.
I'm more leaning towards an IPS monitor for now. But what IPS monitor should I get ? I have a hard time choosing. I live in France and my budget is around 250€. Are there any good IPS monitors for this money range ? Or am I better off with a TN monitor (i.e Asus VG248QE ) ?
The ideal screen size be medium size ( 23 / 24 inch ) as for the resolution I wouldn't know, i'm running an Asus GTX 670.
