New monitor Setup

[Kitten]

Hey guys!

I'm am looking to upgrade my dual monitor setup in the coming months, as I've recently bought a new PC, and I'm looking for some advice. :)

I have seen the new 21:9 monitors at CES this year and would love one of these to replace two monitors, although some specs I have seen suggest they do no support above 60hz, and some games I play do not support 21:9 yet. :(

My requirements are, for my primary gaming monitor:

- 75 - 120hz

- 23" 16:9 (or 21:9 if above 60hz) 1080p full HD minimal

- IPS Preferable, although I haven't seen many IPS supports 120hz

- Good positioning function

- Matt to screen finish

Secondary monitor, for image and video editing, movies and TV, browsing etc...

- 23" 16:9 1080p full HD minimal

- IPS

Any personal experience or pointers are great :) I have done alot of research and there are so many options. Thanks!!

You really do make our lives difficult don't you? :P The only 120hz monitor that has an IPS panel I know of is a 27" Asus VG27AH, unfortunately that's 27". For a gaming monitor I'd recommend the BenQ 2420T. It's a TN panel but it's ideal for gaming, supporting both 120Hz and 3D with a response time of something like 2ms GTG.

For an IPS display, if you want a full on panel that is designed for really good photo editing, the Asus PA28Q fits the bill. However it is a 16:10 screen because it accommodates a complete A4 page vertically for things like magazine editing in media houses.However it does come at a cost of anywhere between $4-$500. If you want to cheap out on an IPS panel, the LG IPS235P is more up your alley; 1080P, 16:9, 60Hz and about $200.

Hehe, I know it's an awkward question, thanks for the help. I've been shopping around for so long now and it's slowly driving my crazy! Thanks again, I'll look into your suggestions :)
