Hello, I am an avid gamer and love to watch movies etc.. I use the computer for more than just games and am kind of an all rounder. I have been looking at this monitor ( http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009C3M7H0/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=4UIEWJWTS5MV&coliid=I32MJ6BAJGRYTN ) because it has gotten really good reviews from linus and I have heard nothing but good things about this monitor from other people. Is it worth the money or could i get something better within the same price range. Also im not sure if this monitor is only sale because of black friday week or its just been on sale for a while. Thanks for your 2 cents :). Also 120 hz for gaming doesnt really over weigh the beauty of ips/pls monitors imo.

You don't need 10 bit color. Let @Glenwing tell you more, seeing as he knows way more about monitors than myself.

Just get the Acer H236HL 23 inch thin bezel 1080p monitor for $179.99, it has great color reproduction due to the ips panel

There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.
