i just built an awsome rig with an asrock z77 extreme 6, 8 ram, 17 -3770K, GTX 660ti with max resolution of 2560x1600

Now i am looking for a monitor but i do not want to buy a monitor that cost as much as the whole rig lol so max resolution is out of the question.

I went to my local micro center and they gave me two choices that they think i would like. This being my first build and new to whole refresh rate, etc. I thought I would leave it up for you guys to decide.

the two choices are 27" ultrasharp u2713HM for $656.96(price in store is different)

or 29" ips cenema screen widescreen monitor for $599

http://www.microcenter.com/product/407352/29''_IPS_Cinema_Screen_Widescreen_Monitor

or this

http://www.microcenter.com/product/384780/EQ276W_27-Inch_IPS_LED_Monitor,_WQHD_2560x1440,_HDMI,_DVI-D,_DisplayPort,_USB


will i notice the the difference between the 2560x1080 to 2560x1440 that much?
which do you guys think is better for the price and why? THANKS for all the help

That's a tough one ...

Dell monitors tend to be top quality, though that one does leave a bit to be desired in terms of video connections.

The LG is pretty good ... it's almost like having a dual monitor without the bezel, but at the same time you might feel like the screen/image is short and fat.

I know nothing about the Auria but the specs themselves seem ok and it seems to come decently recommended from those who have purchased it from MC.

I would see if you can take a look at the image on the Auria. If it's up to your standards, that looks like the best all around deal.

i think i'm going to go with the Auria, For that price and the reviews its worth a shot before i spend 200 dollars more on something potentially the same thing just backed by a brand name! I will let you know if its good. Plus can always return it if it sucks.
