pb278q vs benq gw2765ht

[tk3600]

I am having a hard time choosing between the two. There are very little reviews about the BENQ, I am only able to get some partial information. I heard Asus overall deliver the best color for gaming, and has good quality. The BenQ also has decent color, but sucks in black and white. BENQ is a little cheaper, and has a perk that has no backlight blinking. I am interested to know about this feature. I play around 1 hour of games per day, and spend double the time doing school works and multi-media. The eye-protection seems like a good bargain. Does the no blink thing really make a difference? I feel like in a dilemma.

Edit: I am currently using HP W2220 monitor, with CCFL backlight. Would LED flickering affect my eyes?

FYI: benq BL2710pt is on sale now on amazon.com for $449. Personally I prefer that to GW2765HT.

Hows the PT compared to HT? Have you got the PT? I read that HT is closer to gaming.

Edit: Read that review before.
