Gateway FHX2402L, or Asus ML248H?

Which 24" LED/LCD monitor is better? They are around the same price. Is there a better 24" LED/LCD than those two for the same price?

I would advise against the Gateway FHX2402L, as it only has a 1-year warranty. Also, both are out of stock at NewEgg, which means they may be a little out of date.

Better depends on what you're looking for in your monitor, but my initial suggestion would be the Samsung BX2431:

I believe both the Gateway and Asus models came out around October of 2010. I am looking for something in that price range, that has good response time, and a decent quality picture. Something that will be decent for Gaming, and a little video and photo editing.

For video and photo editing I'd advise against both LED backlights (which give a blue tinge to the screen from what I've read) and TN panels (which have less color accuracy and shift colors when viewed from off-center). Unfortunately, the cheapest 24 inch monitor I can find that is neither LED backlit nor a TN panel is the HP ZR24w, which I'm fairly sure is out of your price range.

Ok, but for what I can afford, would the Asus be a bad buy for 24" LED monitor? I wouldn't be looking to spend more than $220

If you're still insisting on an LED backlight (which from what I've read, actually looks worse than a CCFL backlight, despite being more expensive), the Asus ML248H looks like a decent choice. However, if you're willing to look at one with a CCFL backlight, you might consider something like an Asus MS248H or a ViewSonic VA2431wm
