I currently have an 8800GT and a 19" LCD and I'd like to get a 24" LCD. I've narrowed it down to 4 unless you have other suggestions: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 13&bop=And Budget is $400, so don't suggest anything more expensive than that.

Gigabyte GA P35 DS3L | Intel E2180 @ 3Ghz w/ AC Freezer 7 Pro | 2x1GB Super Talent DDR2-800 | Gigabyte 8800GT w/ Zalman VF700 | Silverstone 500W
Those are all TN screens and TN are inherently bad so I would suggest going to some local stores and try to find the models and see for yourself which is the best to you. Aside from that I would just go with the cheapest because cheap and big seems to be what your looking for. This is Newegg's cheapest non-TN 24" (it's a S-PVA panel) and it's $539.99 after MIR http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6824176059
Go with the BenQ, its the best of the lot. The ergonomics of the stand are excellent for a 24" monitor in this price range, and far better than the others in that comparison.

Never under estimate peoples capacity for stupidity, and you won't be disappointed.
