ASUS VG248QE or BenQ RL2455HM

[lespaul5895]

I'm looking to build a computer around the middle of January or early February (2015). I'm wanting to get a new monitor with it as I'm going to be giving my wife my old computer and monitor.

I mainly play World of Warcraft, Skyrim and DayZ, I will be getting Shadows of Mordor and maybe some of the assassins creed games.

I'm trying to justify the extra $90 on getting the 144hz monitor over a 60hz. Is there any suggestions or recommendations you can give me?

I'll include the PC I plan on building below.

The Asus VS247H-P is the way to go depending on your budget. There is a great Newegg sale currently on it. What is your budget?
