Need New Monitors!

I have a budget of about $250 for each monitor. I was thinking of getting the 27" Benq for $230 ish on amazon. I play CSGO LoL DayZ and do some graphic design.

Like I said I was thinking about getting a 27" but some of my friends say 27" is too big, so I am pondering the though of 24" monitors, oh yeah, i need 2 monitors I would like them to match also

Welcome to the LTT forums. I'll see what I can find for you. Personally, if you're doing something like graphic design (even if not frequently or professionally), I would go with two IPS/PLS/AHVA (not AMVA) monitors if I were you. ;)

BTW, what's your currency?

I am a gamer, not because I don't have a life, but because I choose to have many.

That's actually an AMVA monitor, they're not bad, especially if you like inky blacks, but they aren't exactly the most colour accurate type of monitors. ;)
