Having a hard time choosing between these two monitors

the Asus has 5 ms response time, anti glare, and 1 hdmi port

 

the HP, has 7 ms response time, no anti glare, and 2 hdmi ports.

 

the reason I'm even deciding over the two is because I want two hdmi ports, one for pc and one for Xbox. And is anti-glare really that important? And can I really notice 7ms response time?

 

keep in mind before this I was gaming on a 720p LCD tv 32 inch which probably has 16 ms repost time

keep in mind it is 1080p at 27 inches. if you're sitting pretty close, you will notice the pixels. 

 

that said, i don't think you can go wrong with either.

anti-glare is mostly for brightly-lit areas, or you dislike reflections (do you want to see yourself as you're working?) 

 

low response times aren't that important for consoles, unless it's super high. less than 8ms is tolerable for FPS gaming

I'll be sitting 2 feet away from the monitor , and if my tv didn't have a glare problem and it was a old LCD tv I'm sure this wouldn't either right? I really want the HP because of the two hdmi ports.

well whatever monitor you pick if you don't like the anti-glare, you can send it back and pick something else. i'm sure microcenter or best buy will accept it

trust, and better response time

you will need to get a hdmi switch though unless you want to switch the cables

This hdmi switch you speak of, I can just plug it into the one hdmi port on the asus monitor and it will have 3 more hdmi ports? Something like that right?
