I'm shopping for a new computer monitor. Currently I have a 17 inch Gateway HD1700. I really want a 24 inch monitor but it's so hard to decide on one.
I've been staring at these for months it seems.

I fear this one will be outdated fast as 120+hz monitors are becoming the standard.

I've come real close to buying this one a few times. My worry is my 560 Ti won't be enough to run stuff on it especially at higher hertz. And i refuse to spend money on the 700 series of nvidia gpus. 800 series is going to be truly next gen. Also i read a few times the color is really bad on this.
And then there is another ASUS monitor I've looked at that has dual HDMI ports which I suppose would be good if I ever buy a console since I don't own a television.
Brad keeps mentioning he is going to get a new monitor as well, which keeps this fresh in my mind.
Not sure why i'm stuck on ASUS but they seem the most geared towards gaming and I dislike the stand on the BENQ equivelents.
I've also considered just getting a 24inch HDTV and using it as a monitor but heard there are drawbacks to that such as not being able to read text and such.
