The monitor has to be 1440p - 120hz IPS 27in (I want nice viewing angles and colors) or 1080p - 120hz IPS 24in. It has to be hight adjustable.
It will be powered with a GTX980, by the way whats the best (GTX980)?

If you're going for a 980 just because it's the fastest, I'd advise against that.
NVIDIA are planning a new card(supposedly a 980Ti) which will be launched early next year and will be substantially faster than the 980.
Also the 980 is out of value right now: the 970 is a better value for money choice.

You think I give a <mod edit> about money?

As far as I know there is no such thing as a 120hz IPS gaming monitor. Gaming monitors have TN screens due to the higher refresh rates and lower response times.
I recently bought a BENQ XL2420Z 144hz 24in monitor and am really happy with it. The viewing angles aren't the best as it is a TN monitor but the images are very clear and colors look good (after some calibrating). It also has height adjustment.

Hmm. All right, so I was a bit harsh. But you should be careful.

Anyways, you still want to wait for the 980Ti. Just saying.
I haven't heard of a 120Hz IPS either.

My internet connection went away for like 5 secs, so I wasn't able to make a superfast edit as I wanted to
