I am upgrading from a 22" LCD monitor and there's two specs that are giving me a headache, response time and refresh rates.
What kind of response rate should I be looking for? And is getting a monitor capable of 120Hz refresh rate practical if I don't play games in 3D or will probably always own a mid to high end video card? I am currently running a GTX 460 1 gig.
I have two monitors in mind right now

The Asus VE258Q is 1" larger. The only reason I am considering the BenQ is that they have a 0 dead pixel policy and the thought of spending this kind of money on a new monitor and see dead pixels stresses me out.
