Monitor Recommendations

Thank you

It's an really an IPS + 120Hz? never saw that O.o. Do you have a link for that to see specs? I found this site seems their official, but it's in Korean, I can't find the monitor :(

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Perfect-Pixel-YAMAKASI-Catleap-Q270-2B-Extreme-OC-IPS-2560x1440-120Hz-Monitor-/140919957473?pt=Computer_Monitors&hash=item20cf7be7e1 no I was not mistaken

Except the new ASUS ones are better (faster) than the Dells :P (even at the same response rating)

yeah but fps is not the only reason to get 120hz that all depends on what you care more about,do you care more about looking good or playing good??

i chose my 120hz panel not only for the higher frames as with battlefield 4 i can hit almost 80fps with my 7950 if you get a good gaming monitor you will also get 2ms or lower response times and well screen tearing is terrible for some not to mention the input lag with having vsync on

you can look good or play good but at this point and time it will be hard to do both

IPS is nice but it is a gimmick like 3d something just to sell stuff at the lower end as if you can not get something like the Asus Pro Art or something like it then you are just wasting your money imo as they use cheaper tech in the lower end IPS and there is different types of IPS tech but yet so many people say get IPS

due your home work as each IPS tech has it put falls and if you want IPS pick the one that you can live with

start here to learn about IPS and what different IPS tech can and can not due
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPS_panel

if you are looking into gaming for the your main reason then i would suggest something like the BenQ XL series or the ASUS make some good gaming monitors

yeah it will not look good but if you play stuff like TF2 and COD you will at least be on a level playing field with those with gaming monitor if not they could be a step ahead of you because of input lag

example usually IPS in the lower price range of input lag at 5ms gaming monitors is 2ms so you already have a 4ms faster response time on just the input side

now think about 60hz vs 120hz

if you have Vsync on to match frame rate that is going to add to your input lag or you can turn it off and deal with screen tearing

where if you have a 120hz monitor you will not have input lag as you will not need to use Vsync to avoid screen tearing

like i said it will depend on what you want out of your monitor and well how you game you can go with IPS and look good if none of what i mentioned above matters as it will look good with the likes of Skyrim and such or if you have a weak system

anyhow i posted this to help you if you needed it and to also inform others that may read this and thinking of a monitor purchase i hope i have helped :)
